Everything to know about Moltres in Pokemon Horizons

A translation of the description of the next episode set to air on September 22 was recently uploaded on the Anipoke Fandom X page, a reputable location for all things Pokemon Horizons. This description shared in the tweet pictured above hints at the party fighting and fleeing from the Legendary Pokemon, Moltres. More specifically, the party will face off against the Galarian variant of the creature.

Galarian Moltres technically already debuted in Pokemon Horizons, but the conclusion of its arc has yet to be seen. This is due to the monster being under the ownership of Lucius. The episode prior to 23 just briefly showcased the Legendary Pokemon, with Lucius sending it out just before the episode ends. As such, episode 23 will see the cast facing off against the monster. However, many fans who may want to get into the show may not know where to view it.

Everything to know about Galarian Moltres

While some will simply be enthralled watching the encounter take place once the episode debuts, others may want to know more about this opponent to understand how powerful it truly is.

Since Galarian Moltres is a Legendary Pokemon, it is one of the most powerful creatures stat-wise in the franchise. Being a Dark and Flying-type, unlike the standard form's notorious Fire and Flying typing, the cast definitely has their work cut out for them. This episode of the anime is set to air on September 22.
