Parched from a long desert journey, our heroes are excited to see a promising sparkle in the distance. As they head towards it, a city in utter ruin appears before them. Nearby they locate a Pokemon Center and learn from Nurse Joy that the ruins had once been a great city, inhabited by a tribe of people who were known for the reverence they showed to Remoraid. They meet a artist named Gan Gogh who is trying to sketch the lights that they saw. Everyone decides to go and look for the source, including a disguised Team Rocket who want to take the source for themselves.
