Spoiler notice: The following recap covers the main battles, the ending, and the next-episode preview.
Diana Returns to Kitakami with Pecharunt
Liko, Roy, and Dot still have questions about the stolen offerings. Hydrapple’s footprints did not match the tracks they found, and the broken ogre mask remains another unanswered part of the mystery. Before they can settle it, Squawkabilly announces a familiar visitor: Liko’s grandmother, Diana.
Diana explains that she has brought Pecharunt back to its hometown for the festival. She meets Navie and Ditto, shares candy, and enjoys the celebrations with the group. Pecharunt soon wanders away, however, leaving Diana wondering where it has gone while its food gets cold.
The Loyal Three Disrupt the Festival
A festival mask gives Carmine an opportunity to explain the story of Okidogi, Munkidori, and Fezandipiti. The Loyal Three were once celebrated as heroes who defeated the ogre, until their wrongdoing came to light. Dot’s response captures an important idea running through this visit to Kitakami: an old legend is not necessarily a truthful account.
That history becomes an immediate problem when the trio causes chaos at the festival. Carmine and the others confront them for ruining an event everyone had been looking forward to. The ensuing battle separates the action into several encounters, with each opponent demanding a different approach.
Battle Highlights in Pokémon Horizons Episode 152
Liko and Roy Change Their Strategy
Fighting an opponent they cannot see clearly puts Liko and Roy at a disadvantage. Liko recalls Meowscarada and sends out Hatterene, while Roy switches Skeledirge for Lucario. Rather than continuing to attack blindly, they ask their partners to sense the enemy’s position. Liko then calls for Psycho Cut as the battle with Munkidori develops.
Gholdengo and Mega Sableye Face Fezandipiti
Dot recalls Quaquaval and calls on Gholdengo. Fezandipiti reacts angrily to the flashy newcomer, and its fascination with itself becomes an opening for the team. Ult Mega Evolves Sableye, while Dot has Gholdengo use Make It Rain. The encounter mixes a major transformation with a more playful weakness: an opponent whose vanity gets in the way.
Navie and Carmine Find an Opening Against Okidogi
Carmine finds that Okidogi’s size does not make it easy to exploit a weakness. Navie responds by asking Ditto to transform, creating a distraction that helps turn the encounter. Carmine follows with Sinistcha’s Strength Sap. Their cooperation provides another example of the episode rewarding observation and timing instead of relying only on force.
Why Does Pecharunt Protect the Loyal Three?
After the group gains the upper hand, Dot recognizes that the footprints really did belong to the Loyal Three. The trio still refuses to settle down, and Ogerpon arrives furious at the damage to the festival. Pecharunt then steps in on their side, prompting Navie to ask why it is defending them.
Diana reveals that Pecharunt used to be their leader. Carmine recalls their earlier conflict with Ogerpon, and Diana recognizes what Pecharunt is trying to do now: protect its old friends. She agrees to stay and see its battle through as the confrontation becomes a one-on-one showdown.
The emotional force of this scene comes from that choice. Protecting its companions does not undo the trouble they caused, but it shows that Pecharunt’s bond with them still matters. After the battle, Diana acknowledges its effort and apologizes to Ogerpon.
Ending Explained: Making Amends at the Festival
Carmine makes it clear that the Loyal Three will not simply walk away from the damage. They help out at the festival, receive thanks for their work, and are offered a meal by Diana. The resolution gives them a way to contribute to the celebration they disrupted.
Navie then wonders whether they missed the attention they once received. They used to be given offerings and play with people; perhaps being ignored made them lonely. This is Navie’s interpretation, rather than a confirmed explanation from the trio, but it adds sympathy without erasing their responsibility.
The episode closes with a quieter family moment. Liko gives Diana a Squawkabilly souvenir, which she promises to treasure. Pecharunt objects to being left out, and Navie’s attempt to offer it something ends with a Ditto surprise and an apology.
Friede’s Mega Study: What Does Pecharunt Feed Its Targets?
Friede’s Mega Study segment focuses on Pecharunt. His question asks what food it uses to control people and Pokémon. After the ending theme, the answer is revealed: poisonous mochi. He explains that Pecharunt uses chains to control those who eat it and warns against taking a bite.
Episode 153 Preview: Back to Naranja Academy
The next-episode preview shifts attention to Naranja Academy. Roy looks forward to seeing Nemona, Dot mentions that Penny wants to introduce a friend, and Raifort asks the group to help with an important investigation.
The supplied English subtitles render the preview title as Paldea in Ruin: Resurrection, setting up a change of scene after the Kitakami festival.
