==Blurb==

<i>After traveling to an unfamiliar place, Ash encounters the Pokémon School in ruins. The mysterious Dia explains that Ash must be from a parallel world, where the Alola region hasn’t been destroyed.

{{Ash}} stands in front of {{al|Dia}}'s base and is perplexed by the ruined building's remarkable resemblance to the [[Pokémon School]]. After entering the building, Ash notices a trio of photographs that confirm the building is indeed the Pokémon School, and Dia explains that he must be in a parallel world. He draws on the blackboard and explains the concept, warning that if aspects of the two worlds mixed, more parallel realities will be created. When Ash is confused by the idea, Dia explains that, ten years ago, his [[Melemele Island]] was bought up and overdeveloped, which led to widespread pollution of the area. Afterwards, {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Ultra Ruin Guzzlord|Guzzlord}} arrived and reduced everything to ruins. Dia warns Ash that choosing the wrong path in his world may result in what has unfolded in the [[Ultra Ruin]]. Speechless, Ash goes to a pool of water to reflect on his own world and {{ashcl}}.

Seeing Dia's faith despite all the odds, Ash and Pikachu launch into some training. Ash plants a can and has Pikachu aim his {{m|Electroweb}} at it, followed by a {{m|Thunderbolt}}. The two attacks land and send the can rolling on the ground. The display only irritates Dia and infuriates Zeraora, who goes on to throw a rock at Pikachu. However, Pikachu manages to shatter the rock into pieces with a Thunderbolt and to Dia’s surprise, Ash claims that Zeraora was simply helping with their training. Ash calls on Zeraora to join them and has Pikachu use Electroweb to bring it down to ground level. A {{pkmn|battle}} begins, and Pikachu uses another Electroweb. Zeraora {{m|slash}}es through the attack and unleashes Plasma Fists. Pikachu counters with Thunderbolt and follows up with {{m|Quick Attack}}. Zeraora manages to evade Pikachu's speed and swats him away with its sharp claw. Even after an assault of attacks by Zeraora, Ash and Pikachu declare that they are not finished yet. Zeraora smiles as Dia smirks, and the training regime continues. Zeraora launches into a Quick Attack to evade Pikachu's Thunderbolts and manages to land a hit on Pikachu. Zeraora approaches with another Quick Attack, but Pikachu manages to track its speed and Thunderbolts Zeraora. As a reward, Zeraora gifts Pikachu a [[Sitrus Berry]]. The present is well received as Pikachu happily polishes off the Sitrus Berry. Dia commends Ash and Pikachu on their partnership, and Ash retorts that Dia and Zeraora are much the same.

The battle also manages to attract Guzzlord's attention, and the Ultra Beast shows up. Dia throws a tin to get Guzzlord to follow them to the Ultra Wormhole. As they run, Dia tells Ash that they'll use Pikachu's Electroweb first followed by a simultaneous Thunderbolt and Plasma Fists. Ash agrees to the plan before the group is faced by Guzzlord. They make an emergency right turn as Guzzlord falls through several floors to the basement level. Dia manages to haul Ash up from the hole left in the floor, and the group continues toward the Ultra Wormhole. They soon arrive, and Dia notices the Wormhole is shrinking, making the situation even more urgent. Guzzlord once again approaches and the group puts their plan into motion. Pikachu ensnares Guzzlord in an Electroweb. The attack leaves Guzzlord immobile and vulnerable as Pikachu and Zeraora strike with a simultaneous Thunderbolt and Plasma Fists respectively. Guzzlord manages to break free of the web and screams out at the group. Guzzlord approaches again and Zeraora unleashes a fury of {{m|Close Combat}} attacks on it. However, Guzzlord hits Zeraora away, knocking it into Dia. The Ultra Wormhole continues to shrink and Dia tells Ash and Pikachu to run away.

Ash and Pikachu return to their world and are greeted by {{Rotom}}. Tapu Koko quickly flies away. Ash rushes to the Pokémon School, leaving Rotom and his Bag behind. He happily greets his friends and apologizes to {{an|Kiawe}} for missing yesterday's battle. However, Kiawe is left confused and despite the amount of time that passed in the alternate world, little to no time appears to have passed in Ash's own world. Ash and Pikachu admire the beauty of Alola from one of the school's balconies while Dia and Zeraora look over the ruins of their world. The Shiny Tapu Koko flies into the sky and brightens the dusty world with a rainbow {{wp|aurora}}; a sign of better things to come.
