The pods used to hold Ampharos even look remarkably similar to a scaled-down version of the transporter pads.

Ash and Goh head to the Hoenn Region's Mossdeep Space Center to meet up with Sophocles, who's participating in a mission to bring home a prominent satellite that's been in space collecting data. While things start off smoothly, an equipment malfunction leads Sophocles, along with the klutzy Ampharos he borrowed from his cousin, to get down in the dumps. While Ash and Goh try to cheer the two up, Ampharos runs away, leading to a search to find it.
!!This episode contains the following tropes:
* TheBusCameBack: Sophocles makes his first appearance outside of Alola, inviting Ash and Goh to Mossdeep to watch the ''Talonflame 2'' mission.
* CallBack:
** Ash asks Sophocles about the Alolan gang, to which Sophocles mentions Kiawe wants Goh to battle with him again, referencing their previous encounter.
** Ash gets excited when he incorrectly assumes they sent a Talonflame to space, fitting considering he still owns one himself.
** Ash makes mention of Sophocles' dream of wanting to be an astronaut.
* EpicFail: Ash assumes that the ''Talonflame 2'' mission actually sent a real Talonflame to space. Yeah, about that Ash...
* FailsafeFailure:
** A minor malfunction occurs in the equipment used to hook Ampharos up because Togedemaru was smacked into it with its spikes. The whole things goes kaput while in the middle of the guidance mission. Luckily it was fixable.
** In spite of multiple space centers guiding in ''Talonflame 2'', none of them are prepared for the satellite suddenly drifting off course to avoid a meteor smashing into it.
* InternalReveal: Sophocles learns that the Raboot he saw back in Alola has since evolved into Cinderace.
* ItsAllMyFault: Sophocles and Ampharos fall into a funk when a malfunction takes the center of the ''Talonflame 2'' mission. Ash and Goh snap them both out of it.
* TheKlutz: Big Moe's poor Ampharos is a bit slippery on its feet, whacking Ash and Goh multiple times. When an equipment malfunction during the mission occurs, it winds up slipping into a funk and briefly loses the ability to light its tail.

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Ash refuses to let Sophocles throw in the towel, noting that he always wanted to be an astronaut, and refuses to let his friend give up on his dream.
