Montenevera first appeared inResonating Spirits in a Challenge to Ryme!, whereLiko,Roy, andDot arrived there for Roy's secondTera Training test, meetingNemona soon after. Upon meeting his opponent for the test,Ryme, Roy was surprised, as he had actually met herearlier without learning her name. Believing in the power of his andFuecoco's battle song, Roy entered the testbattle in high spirits, but his attitude soon changed when Ryme'sToxtricity quickly overpowered and defeated them. Ryme declared that Roy had failed his test and told him to come back later. Following someHyper Training with Nemona inthe next episode, Roy challenged Ryme to arematch. Thanks to a revised strategy, Roy was able to defeat Ryme this time around, impressing theGym Leader enough to let him pass the test.
Out of all of the cities and towns inPaldea that contain aGym, Montenevera is the only one where people are not seen standing or walking around with Pokémon of the type specialized in said Gym (in this case,Ghost-type Pokémon). Instead, they're accompanied byIce-type Pokémon. Ghost-type Pokémon can only be found in the Gym building.
