SM085: Difference between revisions

Later that evening, Ash, Kukui, and [[Professor Burnet]] walk through [[Hau'oli City]] with shopping bags in hand. Kukui and Burnet talk about Ash's earlier declaration, and Rotom calculates that Ash's chance of jumping over 30 steps is 0.001%. As Ash asks why the chances are low, {{AP|Poipole}} wanders off to doodle Pikachu's face on a wall. Unexpectedly, [[Viren]] walks by and is infuriated by Poipole's doodle on his newly constructed wall. Ash apologizes and attempts to wipe it off with [[Ash's hat|his hat]] until he realizes who he's talking to. Ash seemingly recognizes Viren but reveals that he actually doesn't. Then, Viren recognizes Ash as Ash Royal from the [[Battle Royal]], and Ash calls him "Mister Greedy Creep". Viren gets mad and reminds Ash who he actually is. Ash asks Viren what he's doing and Viren tells Ash that he's building the Viren Tower, a resort with a high-class boutique, restaurant, and hotel. But while Viren continues to talk, Ash stops listening to check out another of Poipole's scribbles, which turns out to be an ugly picture of Viren. Ash comments that the drawing really looks like Viren, which the latter angrily denies. Then, Burnet calls Ash to tell him that they're leaving and Ash rejoins the Professors. As Ash leaves, Viren tells him not to come back, and Poipole waves him goodbye. When Viren returns to his construction site, he finds [[Viren's henchmen|his henchmen]] slacking off and shouts at them to get back to work. Later that night, an [[Ultra Wormhole]] opens up, and a giant, black, box-like object emerges from it, falling to the ground.

At the base, the Ultra Guardians are briefed on the new {{an|Ultra Beasts|Ultra Beast}}, {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Stakataka}}, which is the same giant object outside the school. Back on the field, the Ultra Guardians are surprised that the giant object is a Pokémon. Ash throws a [[Beast Ball]] at Stakataka, but it dodges by rearranging its own body. Then, Kiawe throws a Beast Ball with his "{{m|Inferno Overdrive}} Ball" serve, but Stakataka moves its tiles, causing the Ball to hit a tree and ricochet right back into Kiawe's face, as a [[Baseball|PokéBase]] {{p|Scyther}} randomly appears and calls a strike on Kiawe. Lillie suggests that they weaken Stakataka with a {{pkmn|battle}}. First, {{AP|Pikachu}} ensnares Stakataka in an {{m|Electroweb}}, [[Snowy]] follows up with a {{m|Powder Snow}}, Togedemaru uses {{m|Zing Zap}}, {{TP|Lana|Popplio}} performs a {{m|Bubble Beam}}, followed by Tsareena's {{m|Trop Kick}} and {{TP|Kiawe|Marowak}}'s {{m|Bonemerang}}. Despite the joint effort, Stakataka is unfazed and breaks free of its restraints. Lillie suggests a new plan, and the group follows suit. Ash, Kiawe, Lana, and Mallow surround Stakataka and throw Beast Balls at it. However, Stakataka once again rearranges its body, causing the Balls to miss their target and hit the throwers. Ash and Kiawe still aren't ready to give up and continues to throw Beast Balls at Stakataka, which goes on until evening. The Ultra Guardians are left exhausted, and Lillie contacts {{an|Lusamine|her mother}} to tell her that they weren't able to catch Stakataka. Lusamine decides that they should just observe the situation in the meantime and try again the next day.
