Iki Town in the anime

Iki Town first appeared in To Top a Totem!, where Ash visited Hala's house along with Professor Kukui to talk to him about his upcoming trial.

The town appeared again in Trial and Tribulation!, where Officer Jenny drove Ash there for his grand trial battle with Hala. After Ash emerged victorious, he was about to receive a Fightinium Z from Hala as a reward for defeating him, but at the last second, Tapu Koko switched it with an Electrium Z, which Hala ended up giving Ash instead.

The town appeared again in Family Determination!, where Ash, his classmates, and Professor Kukui traveled there in order to ask advice from Hala regarding Lillie and Gladion's plan to save their mother from Ultra Space, which they would need an Ultra Wormhole for in order to succeed. The island kahuna told them about a legend regarding Solgaleo, and advised the group to visit the Altar of the Sunne on Poni Island.

The town reappeared in Beauty is Only Crystal Deep!, where a Pheromosa attacked Hala and stole his Fightinium Z, with the Ultra Guardians arriving at the scene too late to stop it from getting away.

In The Secret Princess!, Ash and his classmates visited Hala in Iki Town again to learn about Mohn's Z-Ring and receive Hala's approval for Lillie to keep and use it for the time being. Despite Lillie and Snowy being unable to successfully perform Subzero Slammer during their first attempt at using a Z-Move, Hala still gave Lillie his blessing and allowed her to keep using the Z-Ring.

Pokémon Adventures

Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon arc

Iki Town first appeared in Pokémon Move Specialist Professor Kukui. There, Hala hosted an exhibition battle between Olivia and Nanu in order to prepare a stage that would be used in an upcoming festival. The next day, Hala hosted a tournament taking place in the festival. Sun, Moon, Hau, Gladion, the Masked Royal, and Grunt A each competed against each other in the tournament, with Sun having taken Lillie's place by her request, as she had been registered as a participant by mistake without her meaning to enter. In the middle of the event, Guzma knocked out Grunt A and took his place in the tournament. The tournament ended with Sun defeating Gladion in the final round, earning him an island challenge amulet and sending him on a journey to appease the enraged guardian deities.

In Defeat and the Commander of the School of Fish, Kahili arrived at Hala's house after her tour in Kalos, telling him of her Ultra Beast encounter at Melemele Meadow.

In Thieving and Boss Crabominable, the island kahunas met at Hala's house, where they unanimously voted to make Hapu the next kahuna of Poni Island, though they acknowledged that Tapu Fini's approval was required to make her position official. Soon afterwards, they were attacked by a Kartana and a Buzzwole. Hala stayed behind to battle them while Olivia and Nanu escaped to return to their respective islands and protect them from the Ultra Beast invasion.
