Some time after the events of Season 2 (I presume Scar and Janja's clan will be defeated by the time the current season is over), Kion and the rest of the guard (and Makini) are tasked to defend parts of the world outside of the Pride Lands; their first task involves them defending the Circle of Life in India, where they meet Rani and her pride, as well as a few red pandas and a snow leopard. If they don't stay in Asia for the entire season, other episodes would have them going to other locales, such as the Australian outback or the plains of Yellowstone. Rani may or may not serve as Kion's love interest.

Between the globetrotting adventures of the Lion Guard are some episodes that serve as what can best be described as "status updates" for Simba's pride and the outsider pride; Kiara is trained by her mother and father to be queen while Kovu is trained by his mother to overthrow Simba. I don't think there is going to be much (if any) meaningful interaction between Kiara and Kovu, judging by how they interact with one another after Kiara's first hunt goes up in flames. I wouldn't mind Rani Binging Kion's love interest.
