The Galar starter is attended by his own friend, and it turns out the rival is in question net Pikachu. Ash is seen here with a Lucario because he must have helped Riolu make up and transform. These evolutions are important because they confirm that the two pocket monsters only become more important as the anime continues. And if you look into the distance, you can see that these two Pokemon are fighting none other than Eternatus himself, who is both brave and very foolish. These evolutions will one day ride a lot on them, but for now, fans are just excited to see how Riolu and Raboot unlock their evolving forms.
