It is time to bring Ogerpon back home, but once we arrive at Dreaded Den, Ogerpon then decides to come along for the adventure after all we did to help it. Before we can capture Ogerpon, Kieran then challenges me to another battle to see which of us will become Ogerpon's Trainer.

As for the rest of the description, I recommend watching the full video before reading past this point of the description

Prepare for some challenging battles, because once you bring Ogerpon back, you take on Kieran in another battle, he has different music for that battle, and he has a full team of Pokémon, which range from Levels 71 to 76, but if you haven't beaten the game, his team would be Levels 33 to 38.
Shiftry: Fake Out, Tailwind, Leaf Blade, Dark Pulse (Focus Sash)
Yanmega: Bug Buzz, Air Slash, Ancient Power, Psychic (Kee Berry)
Dipplin: Syrup Bomb, Double Hit, Dragon Pulse, Energy Ball (Leftovers)
Probopass: Power Gem, Body Press, Zap Cannon, Flash Cannon (Petaya Berry)
Poliwrath: Close Combat, Belly Drum, Liquidation, Ice Punch (Sitrus Berry)
Gliscor: Earthquake, Rock Tomb, Dual Wingbeat, X-Scissor (Yache Berry)

This is a very difficult battle, he has a full team, if you haven't completed the main story, his team doesn't have items and they have different moves, usually those with lower base power. After the battle, it is time to take on Ogerpon, which uses four different forms in that battle.
Ogerpon starts off the battle with its Hearthflame Mask, this form has a Fire Tera Type, Ogerpon has a unique Terastallized state, it has Grassy Terrain to set up, its signature move is Ivy Cudgel, this is a 100 power physical move with a high critical hit rate, and its type changes depending on the mask, in this case, Hearthflame Ogerpon's Ivy Cudgel is a Fire-type move, the move is normally a Grass-type move. Its Ability is Embody Aspect when Terastallized, Hearthflame Mask has its Attack boosted, next is Wellspring Mask, which is a Water Tera Type and its Special Defense is boosted, and Ivy Cudgel is a Water-type move. Next is Cornerstone Mask, a Rock Tera Type that gains a Defense boost, and its Ivy Cudgel is a Rock-type move, and then the Teal Mask, a Grass Tera Type which gains a Speed boost through Embody Aspect. After getting through all four forms, you can then capture Ogerpon in any type of Poké Ball. After that, Kieran runs away, after how much he had to go through, like keeping the Ogerpon encounter a secret, and now capturing it.
Ogerpon is a Grass-type Pokémon, its best stats are Attack and Speed, it would be Level 20 if you haven't beaten the game, otherwise it is Level 70. It comes with its signature move Ivy Cudgel, and it does have some good level up moves, like Wood Hammer, Superpower, Spiky Shield, Power Whip, Synthesis, Throat Chop, Low Sweep, Horn Leech, and Follow Me. Through TM, it can learn Rock Tomb, Brick Break, Zen Headbutt, U-turn, Stomping Tantrum, Swords Dance, Play Rough, Knock Off, and Lash Out for moves. For its regular Abilities, in its Teal Mask form, it has Defiant, Wellspring Mask has Water Absorb, Hearthflame Mask has Mold Breaker, and Cornerstone Mask has Sturdy. The downside to the masks is that Ogerpon has to hold that specific mask instead of another item, and each have their own advantages, Hearthflame Mask is a powerful Grass/Fire-type that can hit hard, Wellspring Mask tends to be more defensive, as it has Water Absorb and has a good amount of resistances, and Cornerstone Mask's main advantage is being able to take on Flying-type Pokémon, which its other forms have a hard time against.
Then it is time to battle Carmine, and she requests that you have Ogerpon in your party, I recommend Hearthflame Mask, as she has two Pokémon weak to Fire-type moves, here is her team.
Mightyena: Crunch, Howl, Sucker Punch, Play Rough
Morpeko: Aura Wheel, Lash Out, Thunder Wave, Seed Bomb (Focus Sash)
Leavanny: Leaf Blade, X-Scissor, Swords Dance, Fell Stinger
Ninetales: Flamethrower, Extrasensory, Will-O-Wisp, Disable
Sinistcha: Matcha Gotcha, Hex, Stun Spore, Scald (Occa Berry)

Carmine's team ranges from Levels 70 to 74, and if you haven't completed the game, her team ranges from Levels 33 to 35, and this is right after the battle with Kieran, who had a full team and his team was higher levelled.
After the battle, we then return back to Mossui Town, and it is revealed that Briar and the Blueberry Academy students will be returning back to Blueberry Academy, I wonder if we will ever see them in The Indigo Disk, and after some dialogue from Kieran, who talks about needed to get stronger, following his repeated losses, and that is it for the Teal Mask. There are still some more left to do in Kitakami, some places left to explore, as well as some more Pokémon left to find.
