The Six Heroes released themselves from their Ancient Poké Balls and tried to contain the crystals, but to no avail. Afterwards, Rystal's , Pagogo, transformed into its and gave some of its energy to the Six Heroes, allowing them to seal the Laquium away. As a result of this, Lucius was trapped in Laqua, Pagogo reverted into a dormant state, and the Six Heroes got scattered around the , with Arboliva and its Ancient Poké Ball ending up in a forest in Paldea.
At some point before Nemona and Brassius and…, Brassius saw Arboliva in the forest and, deeply impacted by that sight, made a sculpture based on it.

Arboliva debuted at the very end of Nemona and Brassius and…, albeit in the shadows, where it was seen walking through a forest. Only in the following episode that it was clearly seen, though at first Liko, Roy, and Mollie thought it was an enormous tree and used it as a reference point in case any of them got lost in the forest. As Liko and Mollie were tending to a , a group of distrusting Pokémon called out to the tree, which revealed itself to be an enormous Arboliva with an Ancient Poké Ball. Believing it had been the humans who injured Wooper, Arboliva started attacking them, but calmed down once the whole misunderstanding was cleared up. It took Liko and Roy in its arms and raised them up for them to see the extension of the damage caused by the recent wildfire.
In The Future I Choose, the Rising Volt Tacklers joined Arboliva in restoring the forest. Liko, Roy, and Mollie tilled the soil and planted the they gathered, Ludlow had his used to dampen the dry soil, and Arboliva made the Berries grow into new trees faster with its Ability, . Then, Liko's pendant transformed into once again, and Arboliva returned its power to it, engulfing Liko and Roy in a ball of light and allowing them to witness a glimpse of the past. Soon after, Arboliva returned to its Ancient Poké Ball, seemingly approving of Liko and Roy.
In Quaxly, We Can Do It!, Arboliva was summoned from its Poké Ball by Liko's pendant to face off against Spinel and his Pokémon. This made the enemy decide to retreat.
In Fiery Galarian Moltres, Arboliva emerged from its Poké Ball to protect Liko against its former teammate, . Initially, Arboliva tried to talk to it, but Moltres, still enraged, would not listen. Upon sensing Liko's determination, Arboliva activated its Ability, powering up Liko's Sprigatito and healing the damage done to Roy's Fuecoco and Captain Pikachu. After Moltres was calmed down and returned to its Ancient Poké Ball, Arboliva also did the same.
In Lapras's Feelings for its Friends, Arboliva and Moltres emerged from their Poké Balls to see . After witnessing another glimpse of the past due to Terapagos's powers, one where Lucius promises they will reunite, they mourned together before returning to their Poké Balls.
In HZ068, Arboliva, Moltres, and Lapras came out of their Poké Balls in their own, wanting to test Liko, Roy, and Dot's strength as Trainers after the end of their Tera Training. Arboliva faced Liko and and initially kept its opponent at bay, impeding its advances. However, Floragato managed to use their combined attacks to sneak on it and land a supereffective . Then, Seed Sower activated, which Liko interpreted as it asking for them to strike harder before stallizing Floragato. Arboliva withstood the enhanced Magical Leaf, but seemed content with Liko and Floragato's strength and returned to its Poké Ball soon after.
In HZ074 and HZ075, all of the heroes gathered at that point came out of their Poké Balls and reunited with their long deceased friend, Rystal, who was summoned at the Crystal Pool by the Rising Volt Tacklers and Terapagos.
In HZ081, Arboliva and the other heroes came out of their Poké Balls to reunite with . After it chose to join them, the five, alongside Pagogo, summoned the remaining hero: the Black Rayquaza.

===Personality and characteristics===
Generally, Arboliva is a docile and affectionate Pokémon with those it lives with; however, when it needs to defend its forest and those it cares about, its stance changes completely. This was first shown in Arboliva's Forest, where Arboliva became angered and attacked Liko and Roy without hesitation, thinking they had hurt the . This was also seen in Quaxly, We Can Do It!, where it came out of its Poké Ball to save Liko from Spinel. It was revealed in Alex's books that Arboliva was one of Lucius's Pokemon that was responsible for "healing wounds". This made it "feel" the destruction caused in the forest where it lived previously and emanate a melancholy and sad sound.
