Season 2 of the third Pokémon Horizons series is headed to Netflix on March 20, 2026! The next season will continue the journey of Riko and Loy as new friends join them on adventures across the Pokémon world.

The first season introduced the characters of Liko and Roy, who take over as the series’ protagonists from Ash Ketchum. The pair traveled with the Rising Volt Tacklers, but in the second season, they decided to improve their Pokémon training and learn more about their Pokémon companions.

The new series takes place a year after the events of season 2, as Liko and Roy re-establish a now leaderless Rising Volt Tacklers. Joining them on their journey are Roy’s new yellow Lucario, Dot, an expert intel gatherer, and Ult, who declares himself Roy’s rival.
