Back at Aether Paradise, Kukui presents the crowd with [[Island Kahuna]]s [[Hala]], [[Nanu]], [[Olivia]], and [[Hapu]], as well as [[Lusamine]] of the [[Aether Foundation]], who have agreed to support his idea.

Lusamine reveals that the Aether Foundation is building the Pokémon League stadium a short distance away from Aether Paradise.

At [[Ula'ula Island]]'s [[Po Town]], the base of [[Team Skull]], {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s are spending time at the [[Shady House]], when [[Plumeria]] suddenly enters and announces the return of their boss, [[Guzma]], who steps in through the front door, much to the Grunts' excitement. While Guzma asks everyone how they're doing, [[Tupp]], [[Rapp]], and [[Zipp]] rush in, informing Guzma about the announcement of the Pokémon League. They turn on a half-broken [[television|TV]], where a report about Kukui's League announcement is going on. The same report is also being observed by Ash, Kukui, and Burnet at Kukui's house on [[Melemele Island]]. Ash asks Kukui if he thinks the Masked Royal is going to participate in the League, and Kukui hastily comes up with an explanation that because the Masked Royal is a mysterious character, he can't be sure. Regardless of that, Ash swears to start training for the League the next day. At the Shady House, Team Skull observes how each of the Island Kahunas is interviewed regarding their thoughts about the Pokémon League, and the Grunts briefly exchange their own opinions about it as well, before Plumeria tells them to quiet down. She asks Guzma what he wants to do, and he declares that he's going to destroy the Pokémon League, telling his minions that they're going to Melemele Island.
