During a lunch break on their way to Nacrene City, our heroes catch a pair of Darumaka sneaking off with their food. Ash tried to stop them with Oshawott, but the sea otter Pokemon was quickly knocked out with a double flamethrower.

Ash brings Oshawott to a Pokemon Center, where he is attended to by Nurse Joy and her Audino.  The sky glows a reddish-orange as sunset approaches. Oshawott is fully healed and Ash recalls him into his Pokeball. Iris passes a comment on the two Darumaka, and Nurse Joy subsequently reveals that together with a Darmanitan,  the two Darumaka actually lived in harmony with the residents of the town they were in. However, the three Pokemon were not seen together anymore, and the two Darumaka suddenly started stealing food for no apparent reason.

 Seeming to have sidetracked from the Darumaka, Iris notices a in the middle of the city. Nurse Joy then explains to them that the bell of the tower had stopped ringing, and the tower would soon be demolished. Iris expresses regret when Ash's stomach started growling. Aware that they have not eaten after the Darumaka had stolen their food, the group stays at the Pokemon Center for dinner.

As there is a full moon that night, Nurse Joy tells everyone that she will be preparing dumplings for them. Delighted, Ash and the group offer to help with the preparations. However, upon reaching the kitchen, the group are greeted again by the two Darumaka, who were ready to escape with their dumplings. With much speed and agility, the two Zen Charm Pokemon jump out of the window.

Y/n closed his eyes, extending his senses to track down the Zen Charm Pokemon. Pinpointing their location at the old clock tower, they then followed the two to the abandoned tower to find out the reasons for their actions.

After reaching, they were attacked by the two. After convincing the Zen charm Pokemon to explain why are they stealing food, they led our heroes to the top of the tower. Where the Darmanitan that they were normally seen with in it's Zen mode.

"Darmanitan, the Blazing Pokemon, and the evolved form of Darumaka. Darmanitan switches from Standard Mode to Zen Mode when it has little energy left." Ash's Pokedex beeped.

"So this is what Darmanitan in Unova looks like?" Bea asked.

"What do you mean?" Iris asked.

Y/n showed the others the data about Galarian Darmanitan.

"Darmanitan the Zen charm Pokemon. An ice type, and the evolved form of Darumaka. On days when blizzards blow through, it comes down to where people live. It stashes food in the snowball on its head, taking it home for later." Y/n's Pokedex beeped.

The Darumaka then showed them a out of shape hook, it didn't take long for our heroes to figures out why they had stolen the food. Cilan extrapolates that Darmanitan deliberately switched into Zen Mode to prevent the heavy bell from dropping to the bottom of the clock tower after the hook had broken. However, that also meant that it was not able to eat, causing the two Darumaka to steal food to feed their immobile companion. Iris then applauds their efforts, causing the two Darumaka to smile.

Suddenly, Darmanitan starts intensively glowing red, prompting  Y/n and his friends to take action, as it would burn right through the floor.  Palutena request the two Darumaka to use a double flamethrower once the hook is in the air, she also asked Cilan and Ash to sent out Pansage and Oshawott, to shape and cool the hook. 

After everything goes to plan, Y/n took the hook and using aura steps, climbs to the ceiling and hangs it. Darmanitan deactivates its Zen Mode, the bell fell right into the hands of Darmanitan. With a great upward thrust, the bell now in mid-air, Darmanitan performs a series of leaps to the top of the bar, and grabs the bell before it could drop any further. He then places the bell back into the hook. With a triumphant leap off the bar, Darmanitan re-joins the Darumaka. They approach the group, grateful for what they have done for them. Ash advises the two Darumaka not to steal any more food, and they reply with a sheepish grin.

A day later, our heroes are now headed to Nacrene City. As they walk towards onto a bridge, Nurse Joy stops them and informs them that the clock tower will not be demolished, only repaired. To their delight, Nurse Joy also informs them that the Darmanitan and the two Darumaka have made the clock tower their home. Cilan is thrilled at the thought of Pokemon and people living in harmony. The group then spots Darmanitan and the two Darumaka standing at the top of the clock tower, smiling and waving at them. The group bids the three Pokemon a final goodbye, before setting off for the Gym in Nacrene City.

Not long after, Palutena got a call from someone. She then requested that Y/n comes with her to Galar. Agreeing , Y/n could only wonder what's going on. 

After reaching the regions crown tundra, they went south until they saw a giant tree at the distance. After reaching near the bottom, they sensed a aura approaching. They then saw a Pokemon that looks like Moltres fly to one of the giant fruits and snack on it. Suddenly a Pokemon that looks like Zapdos suddenly ran to the Moltres and tried to kick  it. The attack was avoided, the Zapdos then had to dodge a beam that came from a Pokemon that looks like Articuno.

Before the battle could continue, Palutena's phone suddenly rang loudly. The alerted the battling trio, they then went their separate ways. The older guardian then picked up the phone, it was another aura guardian named Riley. He then informed them of where the three had went, and requested Y/n to capture them.

 They then searched around the tundra, they managed to find the Articuno look alike at the mountain, when they got close, it split itself to three before flying in a circle. It wasn't hard for the real one by sensing it's aura.

"Articuno, the cruel Pokemon. Galarian form .A Psychic and flying type. ts feather-like blades are composed of psychic energy and can shear through thick iron sheets as if they were paper." Y/n's Pokedex informed . 

"Shadow ball!" 

Before Y/n or the Articuno could react, Palutena had called out her Aegislash who used shadow to knock the cruel Pokemon out of the sky. And the strike was enough to weaken it greatly. Y/n then caught it with an Ultra ball.  

Next they found the Zapdos look alike at the wild area, the quickly ran but Palutena's Gardevoir lifted it into the air before slamming it into the ground multiple times. Y/n then quickly caught it before scanning it.

"Zapdos, the strong leg Pokemon. Galarian form. A fighting and flying type. One kick from its powerful legs will pulverize a dump truck. Supposedly, this Pokemon runs through the mountains at over 180 mph."

The final one was at a small area of Galar called the isle of armour, but  Galarian Moltres kept circling the island. But when it got close, it was blasted out of the air by a focus blast from Palutena's  Gallade.

After capturing it, Y/n scanned the Galarian form of Moltres.

"Moltres the Malevolent Pokemon. Galarian form. A dark and flying type. This Pokemon's sinister, flame-like aura will consume the spirit of any creature it hits. Victims become burned-out shadows of themselves."  

After capturing all three, they met up with Riley at Monostoke. He explained that he got the tips from a man named Peony. All three decided to have some snacks before Y/n and Palutena returned to the others, as Y/n relaxed. He could only wonder what the future had in stre for them as the journey continues.
