Guzma is not seen again until after the player and Lillie have helped Nebby recover and evolve from {{p|Cosmoem}} into {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|S}}/{{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|M}}. The [[legendary Pokémon]] transports the player and Lillie into [[Ultra Space]], where they discover Guzma sitting alone, separated from Lusamine. He reveals that once they arrived in Ultra Space, he tried to capture a Nihilego of his own, only for it to use its parasitic powers to control him. Claiming that he has always lived his life making people afraid of him, Guzma admits that this experience has made him feel true fear for the first time, and warns the player and Lillie that they are stupid for coming to Ultra Space and tells them that Lusamine is too far gone into her insanity to be saved. He sits out and watches as the player battles Lusamine and subsequently separates her from the Nihilego she fused with using the aid of Solgaleo{{sup/7|S}}/Lunala{{sup/7|M}} and is saved from Ultra Space along with the others when Solgaleo{{sup/7|S}}/Lunala{{sup/7|M}} uses its powers to return them to the real world. Upon arrival, [[Hapu]] meets the group and has Guzma help her take away the unconscious Lusamine on her {{p|Mudsdale}}. | Guzma is not seen again until after the player and Lillie have helped Nebby recover and evolve from {{p|Cosmoem}} into {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|S}}/{{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|M}}.

Once the player becomes [[Champion]], it is revealed that Guzma disbanded Team Skull after returning from Ultra Space. To reflect this new start in life, he no longer wears his gold chain bearing Team Skull's insignia, paints a red X over the insignia on his coat, and changes his sunglasses to a symmetrical pair of round lenses. He can be found in his parents' home on {{rt|2|Alola}}, where he tells the player to meet him on [[Hau'oli City]]'s beachfront. There, he expresses a continuing desire to finally defeat the player and challenges them once again. Upon his loss, [[Hala]] appears and tells him that he cannot win because he does not recognize his opponents' strength. Hala promises to make a fine trainer out of Guzma, and Guzma leaves after gifting the player his lucky charm, a {{DL|Evolutionary stone|Dawn Stone}}. In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Moon]] only, he appears as a potential challenger and [[Multi Battle]] teammate at the [[Battle Tree]]. In Sun, this appearance is fulfilled by Plumeria instead. | Once the player becomes [[Champion]], it is revealed that Guzma disbanded Team Skull after returning from Ultra Space.

Throughout the game, the player can discover hints about Guzma's past and motivations. He was once a prodigy who earned many trophies that are still on display in his parents' home, but his childhood is hinted to have been abusive; he eventually ran away from home after a violent confrontation with his father. Despite his best efforts, he was never able to live up to the standards necessary to become a captain before he grew too old. Becoming disillusioned due to this, he took on the leadership of Team Skull to fight back against Alola's traditions and assert his own strength. He ultimately fell under Lusamine's influence because she was the only adult who ever acknowledged his strength as a Trainer, inspiring his loyalty to her until the events in Ultra Space. | Throughout the game, the player can discover hints about Guzma's past and motivations.
