Guzma and [[Plumeria]] then arrive. Tupp and his gang beg for forgiveness, but Plumeria scolds them for running off and dismisses their attempt to hijack the League as useless. As Guzma prepares to call out a Pokémon, the girls, Hala, and Kukui arrive as well. Kukui confronts Guzma, demanding to know why he is at the League, and Guzma reveals he is following Kukui's advice to enter the League. He then declares he will dominate the arena and ruin Kukui's dreams by ensuring no more Leagues will take place as Champion. He leaves with Plumeria, with Zipp and the others following. Lillie asks Kukui why Guzma is so obsessed with him, but Kukui doesn't respond. Hala proceeds to inform the children that Kukui and Guzma were once his apprentices. However, Guzma was particularly disobedient and had no regard for the traditions of the island challenge. He ran off hoping to prove his strengths without the need for either a Z-Ring or [[Z-Crystal]]s. Hala admits that he failed to save Guzma's heart, but Kukui feels that the responsibility lies with him. Ash and the others promptly express their determination to win the League and defend Kukui's efforts from Guzma. Kukui thanks everyone for their support.

Overnight, Kukui presents the competitors with a League eve feast. Ash and his friends call out their Pokémon to enjoy the meal. They soon spot [[Samson Oak|Principal Oak]] in an {{alo|Exeggutor}} costume, and are even more surprised to learn that he is also competing in the conference. The screaming girls alert the group to [[Ilima]]'s presence. As Ash goes to greet Ilima, he is bowled over by some of Ilima's fans. Gladion reveals that he will be participating, while Guzma and Plumeria are also seen in the crowd of competitors. Later, Kukui ushers everyone over for a presentation about the preliminary round rules, presented by the Masked Royal via a television screen. He explains that the participants will compete in a free-for-all, where only the final 16 left standing will advance onto the final tournament, a [[Battle Royal]].
