Liko and the others get invited to join Friede on some fieldwork of his, where they're also accompanied by Professor Willow, a professor traveling the world to research Pokémon! As they conduct their research, Liko and the others ask Friede how he and Lizardon first met. It turns out that this happened while Friede was still a kid and Lizardon was a Hitokage... and it's now time to reveal that story.
