There, they meet Taro from the Bluebereague Elite Four, who gives them a tour of the Terarium Dome inside the academy. They also meet Anne and Nemo again, and Roy ends up getting his first battle with Nemo in quite a while......?!

A comment from Seiran Kobayashi, the voice of Taro:
My name is Seiran Kobayashi, and I've been given the opportunity to play Taro. Taro was one of my favorite characters when I played Pocket Monsters Scarlet/Violet, with her "Sou iu no yokunai to omoimasu!" line making a particularly lasting impression on me, so it's a true honor to be assigned the duty of bringing these words crafted by Taro to life through sound. The more I played the character, the more strongly I felt that her charm lies in how her idea of "cute" is built on a wealth of amassed knowledge, and I also had a lot of fun relearning all these things about battling and individual Pokémon characteristics as I played the role. I hope I've been able to support Liko, Roy, Dot and Uruto to the best of my ability during this crucial period of growth for them! Thank you for your support as we enter the Rising Again arc. Best regards!
A comment from Hiroyuki Yoshino, the voice of Kakitsubata:
I will be taking part in the anime as the voice of Kakitsubata. Make sure to check out the episodes live to learn how he'll be interacting with the protagonists, okay? Everyone at Blueberry Academy look forward to your support! Please continue to enjoy the Pokémon anime in the Rising Again arc as well!
We've received comments from Shinya Owada-san, the voice of Principal Cyano! While joined by Pero-san the Kuwassu, Chiko-san the Zenigame and Chiro-san the Waninoko, he talked about how he felt when he got cast, his thoughts on playing Principal Cyano, and more.
Hello everyone. This is Shinya Owada. This time I will be playing Cyano, the principal of Blueberry Academy, who's going to appear in the Rising Again arc of the Pocket Monsters TV show. "Welcome to my grand Blueberry Academy!"
How did you feel when you you got cast?
How I felt? It made me very happy. The beautiful... you know, scenery, of Blueberry Academy, this place that's floating in the sea, or should we maybe say submerged in the sea, it's going to appear in the anime exactly the way it's like in the video game, you know. Me getting to enter, or be a part of, that place sounded really fun.
What were your initial impressions of Cyano, and how did they change after you got to play him?
When I played the game, I thought Principal Cyano came across as a real dandy, though one with a slightly humorous side to him. Now that I've personally played him in the animation though, I've realized that he's not just charming and stylish, but that he genuinely loves the students of Blueberry Academy and has this passionate desire to shape their futures.
How did you feel about the dubbing sessions? Do you have any behind-the-scenes stories to share?
Coming into such a group of amazing voice actors and acting alongside them made me a little... nervous actually. However, I put a lot of thought into how to, you know, express Principal Cyano's idiosyncrasies as I played him. I gave him an excited voice that's a bit higher than my normal one, so I'm wondering what you'll think of it.
Finally, do you have something you want to tell to the viewers?
This series will feature new and really wonderful characters, as well as really wonderful Pokémon. Make sure to watch.
A status report from my dubbing session will be shown on Pokédoko Sunday October 26th at 7:30am, so please watch that as well. The Pocket Monsters TV show airs every Friday at 6:55pm on the TV Tokyo Network. The Rising Again arc, which also features my character Principal Cyano, premieres Friday October 31st. Please watch the start of this new adventure. This has been Shinya Owada. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye. Bye bye.
Here we have Shinya Owada-san, who played Principal Cyano, talking about his favorite Pokémon. We couldn't fit it into the comment video:
Are there any Pokémon you started to like after playing this role?
You know, believe it or not, this time my dear friend Kuwassu has evolved and turned into a Welkamo. Welkamo is really cool too, so that made me fall in love with it all over again. We have it over here... Yeah, here it is. This is Welkamo. In the anime, it grows up and becomes a Welkamo. "Isn't that right?" "Yeah, it is." "That's great, isn't it?" "It really is, isn't it?" That's the two of them talking, see?
WE THEN PLUNGE INTO A NEW CHAPTER! IT'S OFF TO BLUEBERRY ACADEMY!! LET "RISING AGAIN" BEGIN!!!
