(Tuesday)

Lillie and I are now inside the Alfornada Cavern, and we finally find the Pokemon that we want to find. It is a crystal-plant-like Pokemon that is also a Rock Type.

Glimmet: The Ore Pokemon: Rock and Poison Type. Glimmet's toxic mineral crystals look just like flower petals. This Pokémon scatters poisonous powder like pollen to protect itself.

"Rock and Poison Type..." Lillie shivers a little, and I sigh, "I know... it is the same as Nihilegeo. But it has the ability Toxic Debris, it scatters poison spikes at the feet of the opposing team when the Pokémon takes damage from physical moves."

"Yeah." Lillie says as we decide to leave the cave. "But speaking of Nihilego... the Alola Fair is happening back at school right now."

"Yeah, I'm sure we have a lot of things to show our classmates." I say with a smile as we all head back to the school.

(Wednesday)

I was asked to give out a speech to the crowd because I am the Alola Champion, it was quite nerve-racking, but I'm glad that it is over so I can meet up with the others to train some Pokemon. And the Glimmet also evolves into a giant crystal flower.

Glimmora: The Ore Pokemon: Rock and Poison Type. Evolve from Glimmet at LV:35. Glimmora's petals are made of crystallized poison energy. It has recently become evident that these petals resemble Tera Jewels.

"It has the move called Mortal Spin..." Lillie says. "The user performs a spin attack that can also eliminate the effects of such moves as Bind, Wrap, and Leech Seed. This also poisons opposing Pokémon."

"So Rapid Spin and Toxic combine? That is quite interesting." I say.

And then we decide to look at the fair, where it shows the four Tapus.

"According to the legends of Alola, the Guardian deities serve as protectors of the island each resides in. At one point, they participated in a war against each other. Eventually, due to the destruction the war brought, they stopped being involved in human affairs. They occasionally fight to see who is the strongest, which led to the creation of the Battle Royal format. Whenever an Ultra Beast appears in Alola, the deities will fiercely fight against it in order to protect their islands from invaders." Lillie says.

"That sure sounds interesting." Reisa says. "Each of the four main islands in Alola has a guardian deity: Tapu Koko on Melemele Island, Tapu Lele on Akala Island, Tapu Bulu on Ula'ula Island, and Tapu Fini on Poni Island. The island kahunas are each chosen by their island's guardian deity."

"That's right." I say. "Tapu Koko stops the conflict, Tapu Lele heals the Pokemon, Tapu Bulu grows the fields, and Tapu Fini lets you meet the dead."

"Meet the dead? That is weird." Drandon says.

"Yeah, and it is thanks to Tapu Fini that we realize that our father wasn't dead." Lillie says.

"And I remember Ash using Pikachu to fight against Tapu Koko." Drandon says. "It was also the exciting battle to watch."

"Yeah. I still remember that." I chuckle as we head to the next stand.

"This is Solgaleo, Lunala, and Necrozma." I say. "Solgaleo is an emissary of the sun known as the "beast that devours the sun". Lunala is an emissary of the moon known as the "beast that calls the moon". Necrozma, the third member of the trio, also known as the Blinding one, actively seeks out the other two in order to steal the light they possess, which will allow it to regain its true form, Ultra Necrozma."

"Those three have their respective Z Moves." Lillie says. "And I still remember the day when we met Nebby."

"Nebby? Is that your Pokemon?" Nemona asks.

"It's our Solgaleo." I say. "Nebby has brought us to the Ultra Dimensions so we can save Lillie's mother."

"So that means you've traveled through the Ultra Dimensions?" Luke asks.

"Of course. But that is a long story." Lillie says.

As we continue, we notice an exhibition showing the Ultra Beasts, and two of the Aether Foundation members are the ones who do the exhibit. When the staff notices Lillie, they bow, "Mr. Ash, Ms. Lillie."

"What are you two doing here? And are you seriously showing the Ultra Beasts from this stand?" Lillie asks with surprise.

"We got permission from the president so that we will be able to show the Ultra Beasts." The staff member says.

"Indeed. And it is not that people here will be able to get in contact with all of them." The other staff member says.

"If Ms. Lusamine and Mr. Mohn want you to do this, then it is fine. I just hope you didn't scare a lot of people here." I sigh.

"So what is this about? Ultra Beasts?" Drandon asks.

"Yes, they are mysterious creatures from the Ultra Wormholes, and each of them is dangerous and also interesting." I say. "I have captured all of them, but they are still trying to get used to the world we live in."

Lillie says, "All of these are actually researched by my family, so I'll explain everything. Starting off with this one, Nihilego, also known as UB Symbiont. Nihilego is a parasitic organism and, by latching onto one's head, is capable of injecting a neurotoxin that subtly alters the thoughts and actions of any human or Pokémon that becomes its host."

"Parasitic organism?" Reisa says with a slight shiver. "And what about the neurotoxin?"

"This neurotoxin stimulates intense feelings of excitement while causing a loss of inhibitions, which acts to forcibly bring out any latent potential within the host while wearing away at their minds. Our foundation suggests that it acts mainly on a self-preservation instinct. They are also capable of creating illusions and seeing the memories of humans, and they can demonstrate emotions other than self-preservation and the ability to heal people." Lillie says.

I say, "The second one here is Buzzwole, also known as UB Absorption. Its most notable feature is its ability to strengthen itself. By stabbing its proboscis into a foe, it absorbs the foe's energy. This, in turn, triggers a chemical reaction within its body fluids that causes its muscles to grow at explosive rates, further augmenting its already considerable strength. Buzzwole appears to strike bodybuilding poses before it performs any sort of action. This is thought to be its main form of communication, but what it could be trying to communicate is not understood."

"Remember when you also try to do the same poses to communicate with it?" Lillie teases, and I blush a little.

"But absorbing the energy? That is also crazy." Luke says.

Lillie says, "Next is Pheromosa, also known as UB Beauty. Pheromosa's lithe, elegant body is capable of sudden feats of acceleration, able to reach speeds exceeding 120 mph, which no other known life form has previously been able to reach. It also produces a sort of disarming pheromone, which was described as "previously unknown to science" that causes those nearby to become awestruck by its presence. It displays a considerable reluctance towards touching anything as if it interprets our world as being unclean somehow."

"It does like to take our Z Crystals since they're shiny for it." I say.

"Okay..." Nemona says.

"Xurkitree, also known as UB Lightning. It will "plug" its limbs and tail into the ground when it is low on energy and enter a tree-like state to absorb electricity from the earth. Its entire body crackles with astonishing electrical power. The cables that make up its body have been noted as being made of the same material as electrical wiring, and as such are highly efficient conductors of electricity. Its body contains an organ that produces energy, and it can discharge up to 1,000,000 volts at once." I say.

"And this seems to be a hard one to fight." Luke says.

"Celesteela, also known as UB Blaster. Its most distinctive feature is the energy that it stores within itself: a flammable gas that it can shoot from its two huge arms. This is mostly used to propel itself in flight and for battle, but it is thought to have sufficient power and lift to even fly into space. Celesteela's rocket thrust is powerful enough to destroy an entire bamboo forest. Despite being a Steel type, Celesteela's body is plantlike and can absorb nutrients from the soil. Celesteela can have a long lifespan, as Ash's was buried in Alola for over 200 years."

"But it seems to be giant..." Reisa says while watching the picture.

"Yeah, it is." I say. "Next is Kartana, also known as UB Blade. Despite its small size compared to the other Ultra Beasts, Kartana is extremely dangerous, as every edge of its body is incredibly sharp. It is able to cut down a gigantic steel tower with one stroke of the blades on its arms, and any opponents that try to attack it will be similarly cut apart. Its light, paper-like body allows it to evade most attacks by simply floating out of the way, but it also makes it highly vulnerable to fire and moisture. Kartana can open Ultra Wormholes and has the ability to speak, only backward."

"That really is dangerous..." Drandon says.

"The most dangerous one is this one. Guzzlord, also known as UB Glutton. Guzzlord feels like hard rubber. In order to eat, its tongue moves in a wave-like motion that pulls food towards its mouth. It is capable of eating mountains and buildings whole. Its constant hunger causes it to eat anything within reach of its two, pincer-like tongues. Despite its appetite, no droppings have ever been found. It is speculated to convert everything it consumes into energy with no waste leftover."

"I think we've seen this one attacking the Alola League before." Reisa says. "I have to guess you two were involved?"

"Yeah." I say. "And this one is Naganadel, also known as UB Stinger. It evolves from Poipole and the lower half of Naganadel's body houses its brain. It is able to show us memories and also communicate with us as well."

"That is creepy..." Nemona says, "But I think you used this one in the Alola League."

"Yeah." I say.

"Stakataka, also known as UB Assembly. A single Stakataka consists of almost 150 individual lifeforms. It hates having anything on top of itself and will violently try to shake the object off. However, if someone can resist the shaking and successfully ride it, then it will calm down and they'll gain Stakataka's respect." Lillie says.

"Wait, you mean every one of the stones is its lifeform?" Luke asks.

"If you get inside its body, you'll be able to see 150 eyes staring at you." I say, causing everyone to shiver. "And finally, Blacephalon, also known as UB Burst. The color of the sparks and the color and shape of the stars change with Blacephalon's mood. It is known to trick its targets through the silly way it walks before blowing its head up without warning, shocking them in the process; it then steals their vitality to use as energy. This Ultra Beast can freely move its head around easily and regenerate it after blowing it up."

"Weird." Reisa says. "But that's all of them."

"Yeah." I say, and we decide to check out the other stands, and there is one with Magearna, something that Lillie knows deeply of, and there is one with Marshadow, as I told them about the story the other day, and Zeraora's.

Here is a new chapter, and as you can see, every one of Ash and Lillie's classmates are now knowing the Ultra Beasts, and I hope you like this chapter.
