One of the features that differentiates Explorers of the Sky to its close predecessors is the inclusion of extra story elements, referred to as episodes. These episodes allow you to play through a small story as characters other than your main Pokémon and partner. This gives you more insight into the characters in the game and unanswers questions raised in the previous ones. Below are the episodes we know:
