Tower Town Professor Ibis and Assistant Professor Kazi have been studying the Pokemon of Xadia for years. Professor Ibis often claims he “knows everything there is to know about Pokemon” and believes the eggs to be Rock-type, but Kazi realizes the truth: they’re Dragon-type eggs![5]
Within a few days, the eggs hatch! The Professors agree: Callum, Rayla and Ezran should be the dragons’ trainers, because they’ll need to be kept safe in Xadia, where Dragon types are so mistrusted.
So... between Callum, Rayla and Ezran, who chooses what?[6]
If you can find your way through the twisting paths of the Silent Woods, you’ll find yourself in Whisperleaf Town, where settlers carved out a home long ago to hide from dragons.
The secretive town of Crowfeather has a seedy reputation for crime and thievery. Things have a tendency to go missing in Crowfeather, but the town’s Flying-type gym leader, Nyx, denies all allegations of skulduggery.
Atop the Moonrise Caldera is the Fairy-type gym, one of the oldest in Xadia. The leader, Lujanne, is a master of illusion once tasked with befuddling dragons to keep the Caldera safe. Now she turns her tricks on her challengers!
Carved into a hollow and dormant volcano, Cinder City was conquered by trainers who drove dragons out of their home long ago. The city's militant gym leader, Janai, does not hold back in fiery clashes with her challengers.
Before our trainers challenge the Elite Four, Rayla tells Callum to prepare for a double battle. How does she know? Well… the first challengers are her dads, Runaan and Ethari!
Callum has a secret, too -- but he wasn’t planning on sharing it just yet. The third member of the Elite Four catches him completely off guard: Harrow, his stepfather. But Harrow used to be the leader of the Elite Four... what happened?[17]
So this is Harrow’s usurper: Lord Viren, master of Dark and Poison-type Pokemon, defeated Harrow and took his place as leader of the Elite Four. But there's something strange about his Pokemon -- they're almost unnaturally powerful. Like they've been manipulated...
Ezran points out that Viren's Pokemon seem to be in pain... what's going on?!
Viren makes an ominous declaration: once they've been defeated, Callum and Rayla's Dragons will belong to Team Dark! Callum and Rayla are in for the fight of their lives![18]
A final challenger awaits: Aaravos, the Champion, and the true power behind Team Dark. His uncanny connection to Psychic-types allows him to peer into the minds of other Pokemon and bend them to his will, even without catching them...
He claims this unlocks his Pokemon's "true potential," and perhaps there's something to it: his team is unbelievably powerful. But just like Viren's Pokemon, there's something wrong. They're violent, angry, unpredictable, and in pain... Ezran almost can't bear it.
Xadia has achieved balance, Aaravos claims, not by capturing Dragons but by subjugating them entirely. And now he will do the same to Callum, Rayla and Ezran's dragons!
Will their bonds of friendship and love resist Aaravos' power, or will they too succumb?[19]
Ava is re-imagined as a Rockruff found by Ellis, which does not participate in fights.[21]
Trivia[]
Lujanne uses transformed Dittos to uphold her illusions, whose faces are a reference to the episode Ditto's Mysterious Mansion, in which a Ditto fails to adjust its facial features during transformation.
It was never revealed which partner was picked by the main trio, in order to allow fans to build their own teams for the characters.[22]
