Montenevera first appeared in Resonating Spirits in a Challenge to Ryme!, where Liko, Roy, and Dot arrived there for Roy's second Tera Training test, meeting soon after. Upon meeting his opponent for the test, Ryme, Roy was surprised, as he had actually met her earlier without learning her name. Believing in the power of his and 's battle song, Roy entered the test in high spirits, but his attitude soon changed when Ryme's quickly overpowered and defeated them. Ryme declared that Roy had failed his test and told him to come back later. Following some Hyper Training with Nemona in the next episode, Roy challenged Ryme to a rematch. Thanks to a revised strategy, Roy was able to defeat Ryme this time around, impressing the Gym Leader enough to let him pass the test.
