Once the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, it is revealed that Guzma disbanded Team Skull after returning from Ultra Space. To reflect this new start in life, he no longer wears his gold chain bearing Team Skull's insignia, paints a red X over the insignia on his coat, removes his Team Skull tattoos and changes his sunglasses to a symmetrical pair of round lenses. He can be found in his parents' home on {{rt|2|Alola}}, where he tells the player to meet him on [[Hau'oli City]]'s beachfront. There, he expresses a continuing desire to finally defeat the player and challenges them once again. Upon his loss, [[Hala]] appears and tells him that he cannot win because he does not recognize his opponents' strength. Hala promises to make a fine trainer out of Guzma, and Guzma leaves after gifting the player his lucky charm, a [[Dawn Stone]]. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Moon]] only, he appears as a potential challenger and [[Multi Battle]] teammate at the [[Battle Tree]]. In Sun, this appearance is fulfilled by Plumeria instead. | Once the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, it is revealed that Guzma disbanded Team Skull after returning from Ultra Space.

Throughout the game, the player can discover hints about Guzma's past and motivations. He once earned many trophies for Pokémon battling that are still on display in his parents' home, but at some point after taking on his island challenge, he ran away from home. He apparently aspired to become a captain, but was unable to.

He once earned many trophies for Pokémon battling that are still on display in his parents' home, but at some point after taking on his island challenge, he ran away from home. He apparently aspired to become a captain, but was unable to. At some point, he was part of a group centered around a previous [[Island kahuna|kahuna]], but after it was struck down by the wrath of one of the [[guardian deities]], Team Skull would rise from its ashes. Guzma wants to fight back against Alola's traditions and assert his own strength. He ultimately fell under Lusamine's influence because she was the only adult who ever acknowledged his strength as a Trainer, inspiring his loyalty to her until the events in Ultra Space. | ||
In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, when the player and Lillie prepare to open the Ultra Wormhole to pursue Guzma and Lusamine into Ultra Space, the pair are thrown out of a wormhole before the player and Lillie can do so. They are followed by {{p|Necrozma}}, who attacks and absorbs Nebby before opening many Ultra Wormholes and fleeing back to [[Ultra Megalopolis]]. When the player returns from defeating Necrozma in Ultra Megalopolis, Guzma has regained consciousness and reflects on the conversation he overhears about working together with others. Later, during the game's credits, he and Plumeria are shown at the Shady House announcing the disbanding of Team Skull to its members. | In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, when the player and Lillie prepare to open the Ultra Wormhole to pursue Guzma and Lusamine into Ultra Space, the pair are thrown out of a wormhole before the player and Lillie can do so.
