{{Ash}} and {{ashcl}} gather at the [[Ruins of Hope]] to witness [[Hapu]]'s [[Island Kahuna]] inauguration ceremony. As {{an|Kiawe}} warns everyone else to be quiet, he yells at {{Rotom}} for taking [[Photography|snapshots]] of the ceremony, only to be shushed himself by the girls for shouting. Hapu, wearing a blue dress, kneels at the ruin's altar and begins to dance for {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Fini}}. As Hapu twirls around, Tapu Fini emerges from the nearby water to witness her performance. Hapu soon removes her [[Z-Ring]] from her wrist and pledges her desire to look over [[Poni Island]] and its surrounds. Tapu Fini sprinkles the Z-Ring with some mystical water and causes several water spouts to rise from the ruin's canals to officiate Hapu as the Poni Island Kahuna. Tapu Fini soon leaves the area, and Hapu's attention quickly turns to her [[Island challenge|grand trial]] against Ash. | {{Ash}} and {{ashcl}} gather at the [[Ruins of Hope]] to witness [[Hapu]]'s [[Island Kahuna]] inauguration ceremony.

Hapu announces that the battlefield will be the site of Ash's grand trial against her and {{TP|Hapu|Mudsdale}}. Ash agrees to the one-on-one conditions before Hapu flies off on her {{p|Golurk}}. While they wait for the tide to recede, Ash and his classmates spend their time at the beach. {{an|Lillie}} and {{an|Mallow}} watch [[Snowy]] and {{TP|Mallow|Shaymin}} play in the waves. Ash's attention turns to {{AP|Lycanroc}} as it eagerly digs in the sand to reveal something buried, and to Ash's surprise it is his {{AP|Rowlet}}. Suddenly, {{TP|Lana|Brionne}} splashes Ash in the face, and this quickly escalates into a water fight. As Ash steps backwards he accidentally tramples {{AP|Pikachu}}, causing himself, {{an|Lana}} and her Pokémon to receive a powerful electric shock. Meanwhile, Kiawe and {{an|Sophocles}} lay in the shade as they discuss which Pokémon Ash will choose for his grand trial battle against Hapu. | ||

By nightfall, the ocean is at low tide and the battlefield is now fully exposed. Ash's classmates watch from the grandstand and are surprised by Ash's choice of Pikachu because of the [[type]] disadvantage. Before the grand trial begins, Hapu recites a prayer to Tapu Fini and on her request, Kiawe assumes the role of [[Battle judge|referee]] and calls for the challenge to start. Hapu orders the first move, {{m|High Horsepower}}. Pikachu lands the first strike with a {{m|Quick Attack}}. While Mudsdale is stopped in its tracks, its {{a|Stamina}} [[Ability]] is also triggered, leading to an increase in its {{stat|Defense}}. Pikachu lands another two Quick Attacks, and Mudsdale's defenses continue to rise. Musdale approaches with another High Horsepower, and Pikachu rushes in with Quick Attack. Ash has Pikachu swap to an {{m|Iron Tail}}, but he is sent flying from Mudsdale's {{m|Double Kick}}. Hapu asks Ash about his next move, and Ash replies that he always fights with full power. Ash's determination leads Hapu to step up the grand trial's stakes, ordering Mudsdale to use {{m|Bulldoze}}. Pikachu is knocked back by the seismic wave, which also causes a pillar to fall into the ocean and subsequently splash Ash's friends. Pikachu manages to dodge the follow-up Bulldoze attacks, but the sheer power causes some of the battlefield's surrounding pillars to collapse. | By nightfall, the ocean is at low tide and the battlefield is now fully exposed.
