The Ultra Guardians

The (Japanese: ウルトラガーディアンズ Ultra Guardians) are an anime-exclusive task force and a sub-group of the Aether Foundation formed by Lusamine. Their goal is to catch Ultra Beasts that have strayed into the Pokémon world, and release them back into Ultra Space to maintain safety in the Alola region. Their base is located underneath the Pokémon School and was built by the Aether Foundation. The base is overseen by Lusamine's Clefable. When accepting a mission, the Ultra Guardians will shout out the word (Japanese: ウルトラジャー Ultrager).

History

The Ultra Guardians base

The Ultra Guardians were first mentioned in The Professors' New Adventure!, when Lusamine invited Ash and his classmates to join the task force.

The Ultra Guardians embarked on their first mission in SM061, where they were sent out to capture a Buzzwole. Ash eventually managed to do so, allowing it to be sent back to Ultra Space.

In SM067, Ash caught a Poipole to take care of it until the location of its Ultra Wormhole could be discovered once more.

The Ultra Guardians embarked on their second mission in SM069, where they were sent out to capture the Celesteela which they had discovered and dug out of a hillside the day before. However, they were unable to catch it due to it being rooted down, and were instead forced to create a defensive wall around it to protect the surrounding area from the fire produced by its takeoff.

		Poipole
		Main article: Ash's Poipole First appearing at the end of The Professors' New Adventure!, this Poipole began following Ash and Pikachu during the Ultra Guardians' first mission, though at first, only Pikachu was aware of it. In SM067, it was discovered by the Ultra Guardians. At Lusamine's suggestion, Ash caught Poipole to keep in his party until its Ultra Wormhole could be located.

Debut	SM061

		Celesteela
		Celesteela was found by Sophocles while camping out at the Bamboo Hill. It actually arrived in Alola approximately 200 years ago in what was believed to be a naturally appearing Ultra Hole, and was stuck in the ground ever since, passively absorbing energy for a take off. After it was dug up, Celesteela was discovered by Lusamine's group, who told the Ultra Guardians to go out and capture it. Their attempts to capture it failed, as Celesteela was too deeply rooted to the ground at the time. When they discovered that Celesteela was preparing to take off, the Ultra Guardians realized that the flames produced when it flies would set the surrounding area ablaze. Using their Ride Pokémon, the Ultra Guardians were able to construct a defensive barrier, allowing Celesteela to safely blast off. None of Celesteela's moves are known.
Debut	SM069
