==Story==
After rescuing the Pokémon in Wish Park's Dance Zone, , , and make their way to the Crag Area. Here, they meet a friendly , who asks them to help him find his friend, . He also gives the trio a hint to the secret word needed to get past and enter Rockridge Fort.
Once inside, the trio hears a strange voice coming from inside the cannon in the middle of the fort, who claims to be Tepig. Since the trio doesn't know how to get Tepig out of the cannon, they request from nearby for help. After the group fires Tepig out of the cannon, despite his objections, he angrily challenges them to a . Once defeated, he calms down and forgives the trio for launching him into the air, saying that it gave him a new idea for an attack. He then joins the trio in hopes of entering the Battle Tournament.
The group goes to ask 's permission to enter the Battle Tournament, and then he gives the group two additional conditions to complete before entering: the first one is to smash a nearby rock with Tepig's new attack, and the second one is to go to the cave to find the Bravery Beard. Once both conditions are completed, Emboar happily accepts their entry to the Battle Tournament and tells them to talk to , who guards the gate to the Colosseum. When being talked to, he lets the group open the gate by hitting the gate's switch with Tepig's , and so they enter the Colosseum after opening the gate.
As the group makes their way to the Colosseum, they once more meet Victini, who thanks them for finding Tepig, before continuing to head to the Colosseum. On their way, they are challenged by a jealous and three , who are angered that they didn't get entered into the Battle Tournament, but then let them pass once defeated. Upon reaching the arena, they find the gate shut, and take another route into the arena where they are met with their opponent: . Once Hydreigon is defeated, appears and announces to everyone around them that Hydreigon has been leading Pokémon into Wish Park. With his actions exposed, Hydreigon unveils the Poster Portal hidden in the walls of the Colosseum. His partner, , then appears with Victini in his claws and knocks out Emboar. The duo then escape into the portal with Victini and tell and the others to find many friends to help them open the portal, so to enter Wish Park and battle them there. After making enough friends, the group works together with the friends they made to wish for the portal to open, allowing the group to enter Wish Park.
After bringing every Pokémon stuck in Wish Park's Power Zone back to the Crag Area, the group and Victini, who they also rescued, return to the Colosseum, with Emboar already there waiting for them. He thanks them for their heroic actions, but then tells them that the Dark Vortex has finally appeared above PokéPark. Victini then suggests to the group that they go to the Tech Area, where has a place called Scientorium, where Wish Park's portals are made, and so the group then goes there as their next destination.
When the trio once again goes to Rockridge Fort to meet the amnesiac Tepig, they have a battle, which restores his memory.
When the gang begins to find a way to save Darkrai from the Dark Vortex and decides to ask the Area Keepers for help, Emboar reveals the way to contact is to acquire a special item inside an indestructible orb passed down in the Crag Area. The deep black orb is entrusted to the gang and they decide to go to the Tech Area to speak with to see if he has a way to break the orb. Later, at the Colosseum, they have help them reach ' shrine and use a chant to summon him, and he agrees to help out if he is beaten in a chase game.
