At [[Ula'ula Island]]'s [[Po Town]], the base of [[Team Skull]], {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s are spending time at the [[Shady House]], when [[Plumeria]] suddenly enters and announces the return of their boss, [[Guzma]], who steps in through the front door, much to the Grunts' excitement. While Guzma asks everyone how they're doing, [[Tupp]], [[Rapp]], and [[Zipp]] rush in, informing Guzma about the announcement of the Pokémon League. They turn on a half-broken [[television|TV]], where a report about Kukui's League announcement is going on. The same report is also being observed by Ash, Kukui, and Burnet at Kukui's house on [[Melemele Island]]. Ash asks Kukui if he thinks the Masked Royal is going to participate in the League, and Kukui hastily comes up with an explanation of the Masked Royal being so mysterious of a character that he can't be sure. Regardless of that, Ash swears to start training for the League the next day. At the Shady House, Team Skull observes how each of the Island Kahunas is interviewed regarding their thoughts about the Pokémon League, and the Grunts briefly exchange their own opinions about it as well, before Plumeria tells them to quiet down. She asks Guzma what he wants to do, and he declares that he's going to destroy the Pokémon League, telling his minions that they're going to Melemele Island.

As the next day dawns over Alola, Ash and his [[party|team]] are running along the beach, determined to train as hard as they can. Meanwhile, in [[Hau'oli City]], Team Rocket notices a poster about the Pokémon League and decide to start training for it themselves as well. Just then, Team Skull enters the scene, mocking the Rocket trio of their idea and performing their introduction rap. Not wanting to be outdone, Team Rocket also performs a rap version of their {{motto}}, leaving [[James]] and {{MTR}} momentarily exhausted. The Skull trio is impressed and wonder if they've seen each other before. While both trios prepare for a {{pkmn|battle}}, Guzma steps in and says that he'll deal with the Rocket trio himself, saying that it'll be a good warm-up for Kukui. He tells them to come at him all at once, swearing to destroy them. And soon enough, Team Skull exits the scene, a defeated Team Rocket lying on the ground in their wake. As {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Stufful}} approaches them, they realize what's coming, and indeed, {{an|Bewear}} then emerges and breaks out of a nearby concrete pipe, skooping up the trio, and running away.

At Pokémon School, Kukui is in the middle of explaining his class about the Pokémon League, when Team Skull starts calling to him from the school yard, telling him to come down to talk to them. He goes down and tells them to save their talk for later, but his attitude changes when he notices and recognizes Guzma. Ash and his classmates follow Kukui to the school yard, and Plumeria tells them they can witness the match between Kukui and Guzma. Guzma emphasizes that he's not going to just battle, but destroy Kukui, saying that while the island challenge and Island Kahunas are outdated customs that need to be replaced, he sees the idea of a Pokémon League as unnecessary, as he already considers himself the strongest Trainer around. Kukui asks why he won't just join the League to prove his strength, but Guzma shoots down the idea. He swears to destroy the League if Kukui doesn't back down, which Kukui refuses to let happen, noting that Guzma hasn't changed at all. Ash then steps in and asks Guzma to have a Pokémon battle with him. Guzma notices Ash's [[Z-Power Ring]], and Ash tells him that he's cleared all four grand trials. Guzma thinks to himself how Ash reminds him of Kukui, and accepts his challenge. Kukui tries to talk to Ash, but he asks Kukui to leave this to him, which he agrees to, saying that he'll act as the [[Battle judge|referee]]. Guzma swears to destroy Ash, but Kukui tells Guzma not to underestimate him.
