Acerola: Difference between revisions

In ''[[SM088|Full Moon and Many Arms!]]'', Acerola watched the sunrise alongside Nanu, with Tapu Bulu watching from nearby. She later joined the rest of Alola in showering {{DL|Light trio (anime)|Necrozma}} with light so it could return to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|true form}} in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]''.

In ''[[SM094|A Haunted House for Everyone!]]'', Acerola visited the [[Pokémon School]] on [[Melemele Island]], reuniting with Ash and meeting {{ashcl}} for the first time. She then helped them build a haunted house for {{an|Lana}}'s twin sisters [[Harper and Sarah]]. The presence of Mimikins ended up attracting several {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, including a {{p|Mismagius}} who put everyone to sleep and transported them into a nightmarish illusion world.

In ''[[SM129|Battle Royal 151!]]'', Acerola greeted Ash and his classmates when they arrived at the [[Manalo Stadium]]. She was revealed to be among the 151 Trainers taking part in the [[Battle Royal]] preliminary round of the [[Manalo Conference]]. She competed with her {{p|Shuppet}}, and was ultimately among the 16 Trainers still standing in the end. The match-ups for the next round revealed that she would be battling {{an|Kiawe}}.

In ''[[SM131|The Battlefield of Truth and Love!]]'', Acerola went up against Kiawe, using Greedy Rapooh against [[Kiawe's Marowak]]. She ended up losing when Marowak retrieved its bone from Greedy Rapooh and knocked it out. In ''[[SM135|The Final Four!]]'' and ''[[SM136|Getting Down to The Ire!]]'', she watched the battle between Kiawe and {{an|Gladion}} in the stands. In ''[[SM137|The Wisdom Not to Run!]]'', she was also seen spectating the battle between Ash and [[Guzma]].

In ''[[SM139|Enter the Champion!]]'', Acerola attended the award ceremony for the winner, only for it to be interrupted when a {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Manalo Stadium Guzzlord|Guzzlord}} arrived at the stadium through an [[Ultra Wormhole]].

Acerola reappeared in a flashback in [[SM144]].

Acerola is young at heart and markedly delightful. She is also accustomed to the supernatural and the darkness surrounding {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon, largely because of {{p|Mimikyu|Mimikins}}' presence. This was demonstrated by her composure during {{p|Mismagius}}'s nightmarish illusions in ''[[SM094|A Haunted House for Everyone!]]'', which she noted was normal for her.

Acerola often visits [[Nanu]], who is notoriously lazy, to ensure he is keeping up with his [[Island Kahuna]] duties. It was at Acerola's insistence that Nanu agreed to accept Ash's challenges in ''[[SM074|Tough Guy Trials!]]'' and the later [[rematch]] in ''[[SM077|Guiding an Awakening!]]''.

This listing is of Acerola's known [[Pokémon]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}:

|desc={{p|Gengar}}, [[nickname]]d '''Greedy Rapooh''' (Japanese: '''欲しがりラプー''' ''Greedy Rapooh'') and sometimes shortened to simply '''Rapooh''' (Japanese: '''ラプー''' ''Rapooh''), is a {{pkmn2|Totem}}-sized Pokémon that Acerola befriended in ''[[SM073|Why Not Give Me a Z-Ring Sometime?]]''r. Acerola first met Gengar when it broke free from a shrine that {{TRT}} accidentally unsealed it from. When Acerola tried to scold Gengar and stop it from causing trouble, it took a liking to her and kidnapped her. It then stole a large variety of objects, including Team Rocket's [[Darkinium Z]], in an effort to have Acerola stay with it, but to no avail.

In [[PASM17]], Acerola, Kiawe, Mallow, Lana, Ilima, and [[Hau]] arrived at Po Town. Their presence alerted Team Skull's boss, [[Guzma]], who demanded to know why his base was being invaded. When the Captains revealed they only wanted to talk, Guzma agreed on the condition they made it to him first. He then summoned a {{p|Pheromosa}}, {{p|Celesteela}}, and {{p|Guzzlord}} and had them attack the Captains and Hau. Despite their best efforts, Acerola and the others were completely outmatched by the rampaging [[Ultra Beast]]s.  

In [[PASM18]], Sun arrived at Po Town, only to get caught up in the commotion. Annoyed the Captains were still fighting, Guzma revealed a {{p|Cosmog}} and had it open more wormholes. [[Gladion]] appeared, demanding to know where Guzma got the Cosmog and Ultra Beasts from. Revealing his true aim is to destroy Ultra Beasts, Gladion battled the beasts Guzma summoned with his {{TP|Gladion|Type: Null}}. To everyone's shock, Gladion also revealed the [[Aether Foundation]]'s president, [[Lusamine]], was the one who gave Guzma Cosmog as part of her plan to create a paradise filled with nothing but Ultra Beasts and herself. Eventually, the beasts broke out of Po Town's barrier, allowing them to wreak havoc on all of Ula'ula Island. Acerola  and the other Captains headed off to various locations to evacuate any innocent civilians caught in the beasts' attacks.

In [[PASM22]], Acerola, [[Sophocles]], [[Molayne]], [[Professor Kukui]], and Gladion fought off a Celesteela and Guzzlord at {{rt|10|Alola}} to prevent them from reaching [[Hokulani Observatory]]. Gladion easily defeated Celesteela and later defeated Guzzlord to prevent it from hurting [[Lillie]].
