Inside the Alola League which sat on Mount Lanakila, Starlight battled the four members selected for the Alola region's very own Elite Four. These members were Molayne, Olivia, Acerola and Kahili. All of them powerful trainers from across the region. After clearing all four of them as Starlight made it to the summit, she faced one final challenge and that was Hau.
"I've been wanting this since the beginning, Starlight. A fun battle between us, and now here we are." Hau said.
"All that's standing between me and that chair. Let's do this." Starlight said.
(Cue- Battle! Hau! Version 2- Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon)
The battle soon started as both Starlight and Hau were giving it their all as they battled. One battle was Ninetales vs Noivern as Ninetales took it down. Then it went to Tsareena against Tauros, combatting its tackling with its kicks. Next was Toucannon against Leafeon as Leafeon dodged left and right before a Drill Peck hit it. Then came Raichu against Crabominable as it combatted its ice and fighting power with its psychic power as Raichu enjoyed itself. Then came Lycanroc against Raichu as it dodged left and right before lunged at Raichu with Crunch. Then the final battle took place as as Primarina battled Incineroar. Both pokemon battled hard for each of their trainers before Primarina overcame Incineroar with its signature Z move.
"There...I've finally done it." Starlight said as she approached the chair and sat. "I've become this Alola's champion."
"Well…. Alternate Alola Champion, if you wanna get technical." Twilight said.
"I said this Alola." Starlight said.
"Doesn't matter how you slice it, you're still a Champion, through and through." Mayumi said.
"True. And as Champion...you and I will be battling back on Melemele...just as promised." Starlight said.
"I won't plan on going easy." Mayumi said.
"Neither will I." Starlight said.
The group soon returned to Melemele Island where a party was had soon gone underway celebrating Alola's first champion. It was during this celebration that Mayumi and Starlight each took their parts on opposite sides of the fighting stage.
"Seems now is finally our time. We've kept this off long enough." Starlight said.
"Yes. We've both knew this was coming. It's finally time to see which of us is better." Mayumi said.
And so….an unforgettable fight between two trainers...began.

"Let's go out first...Lycanroc!" Starlight said sending out Lycanroc.
"I'm starting with you, Sandslash!" Mayumi said sending out Sandslash.
"Lycanroc, start off with Fire Fang!" Starlight said as Lycanroc ran towards Sandslash as its jaws flamed with fire.
"Use Metal Claw!" Mayumi said.
Sandslash's Metal Claw and Lycanroc's Fire Fang both struck hard. Lycanroc howled in pain as Sandslash's claws hit its side and it bit down on Sandslash's arm.
"Looks like this journey has gotten both of us better." Mayumi said.
"Yeah. It has. Lycanroc...Use Thunder Fang!" Starlight said as Lycanroc got in close as it bit into Sandslash, sending electricity into its body, forcing the creature back.
"Excellent work, Sandslash. Leave the rest to us." Mayumi said as she recalled Sandslash. "Let's go, Ampharos!" Mayumi said switching to a large yellow sheep creature.
"Lycanroc, let's keep going. Attack Ampharos with Stone Edge!" Starlight said as Lycanroc fired pointed stones at Ampharos.
"Oh no you don't! Use Iron Tail!" Mayumi said as Ampharos swatted away the Stone Edge with its tail.
"Not...use Crunch!" Starlight said as Lycanroc bit onto Ampharos's tail with Crunch before being hit with some electricity leaving it paralyzed.
"It's Ampharos' Static ability. Any Pokemon that uses physical attacks against it get paralyzed." Leia said.
"Gotcha. Use Electro Ball!" Mayumi said as Ampharos hit Lycanroc with a powerful ball of electricity.
"Lycanroc, Return! I choose you, Tsareena!" Starlight said sending Tsareena out. "Use Leaf Storm!" she called out as Tsareena unleashed a barrage of leaves against Ampharos.
"You did well, Ampharos. Get some rest." Mayumi said recalling Ampharos. "You're up, Honchkrow!"
"Better not take the chance. Return, Tsareena. Go, Raichu!" Starlight said switching out.
"Use Night Slash!" Mayumi said.
"I knew Honchkrow had Dark Type traits...but I needed to think fast." Starlight said to herself as Honchkrow attacked. "Use Electric Terrain!" she shouted as Raichu filled the field with electricity. "Now use Thunderbolt!" Starlight said before suddenly appearing before Honchkrow and zapping it before it could dodge.
"How did it move so fast?" Jude asked.
"Raichu's ability. Its called Surge Surfer. It doubles Raichu's Speed during Electric Terrain." Twilight said.
"You doing okay there, Honchkrow?" Mayumi asked.
"Not for long! Use, Brick Break!" Starlight said.
"Time for a little Payback!" Mayumi said as both pokemon hit the other as they both fell out of the air.
"Return!" both of them said.
"You're up now, Decidueye!" Mayumi said.
"Help me out...Toucannon!" Starlight said.
"Might be in a bit of a disadvantage here… But we can pull through this. Use Steel Wing!" Mayumi said.
"Ready a Beak Blast!" Starlight said as Toucannon's beak heated up. Decidueye landed a hard blow onto Toucannon but not before being burned by its beak. "Fire!" she said as Toucannon unleashed its power as Decidueye barely held on against the attack.
"Don't go down on me just yet. Time to lay the Smack Down!" Mayumi said. Decidueye then fired a stone at Toucannon's head sending it crashing.
"Don't take that sitting down! Use Drill Peck!" Starlight said as Toucannon flew at Decidueye in a spiral and drilling into it with Drill Peck.
"Return!" Mayumi said recalling Decidueye. She's down to two Pokemon now, so she has to make this count. "This is probably a bad idea, but here goes. Go, Araquanid!"
"Time for another round of Beak Blast!" Starlight said as Toucannon's beak warmed up.
"Not this time. Use Liquidation!" Mayumi said as Araquanid rammed into Toucannon, knocking it out. But after doing so suffered painful burn.
"You did good. Now...come out, Primarina!" Starlight said switching to Primarina. "Use Moonblast!" Starlight said as Primarina attacked Araquanid with a large sphere of energy as hit hit Araquanid.
"I have two Pokemon left, but she still has three if I count the Tsareena she called back. I'll have to turn this around somehow." Mayumi said to herself. "Use Infestation!"
Araquanid then infested Primarina with tiny bugs.
"Now I can't escape. Use Moonblast!" Starlight said as Primarina fired another moonblast at Araquanid.
"I'm gonna have to risk it… Use Leech Life!" Mayumi said.
Primarina's energy was zapped by Araquanid before a large blue aura surrounded it.
"Torrent...Perfect. Primarina, use Sparkling Aria!" Starlight said as Primarina hit Araquanid with multiple water bubbles that were stronger against it than normal, despite Araquanid still holding on.
"Man, when it comes to Special Attacks, Araquanid can take a hit." Scott said.
"We gotta keep pushing. Use Hyper Voice!" Starlight said.
"Use Bubble Beam!" Mayumi said.
Both attacks hit the other as both pokemon fell.
"Return! Go, Tsareena!" Starlight said.
"I've only got one Pokemon left…" Mayumi said as she returned Araquanid. "It's all on you...Salazzle!"
"I had a feeling you'd save Salazzle for last." Starlight said. "Tsareena, use Hi Jump Kick!" Starlight said as Tsareena lunged at Salazzle with a powerful kick.
"Flame Burst!" Mayumi said as it laid in a close in Flame Burst after taking the kick.
"Return! Last one...Come out, Ninetales!" Starlight said sending it out.
"It's down to the last Pokemon. It all comes down to this." David said.
"Ninetales, use Mist!" Starlight said as Ninetales released a fog of mist as it disappeared inside it.
"Calm down. We can catch her. Use Sweet Scent." Mayumi said.
"She's trying to lure Ninetales out. Ninetales, forget hiding! Use Extrasensory!" Starlight said as Salazzle was hit with a psychic attack.
"Use Poison Jab!" Mayumi said as Salazzle struck Ninetales in the chest.
"The two of them are still hanging on, but it looks like the battle will end soon. The first one to land an attack will win." David said.
"Mayumi...let's end this in style!" Starlight said showing her z power ring with Psychium Z in it.
"I couldn't agree more." Mayumi said doing the same with Poisonium Z.
"Let's go!" they both said touching their Z crystals.
"Shattered Psyche!" Starlight said.
"Acid Downpour!" Mayumi said.
Both attacks collided with one another in equal force before a large and intense explosion went off in the middle of the field. Both trainers coughed as the smoke cleared before they both saw their pokemon lying on the ground.
"That was some force. I didn't expect something like this to happen." Mayumi said.
"Me neither. A draw….I'm just as surprised as you are." Starlight said.
"To be able to push forward in the face of adversity. That's what it means to be strong. We've both shown examples of that." Mayumi said.
"Yeah. I'm actually glad things turned out like this. I can tell good things are gonna come our way." Starlight said.
Mayumi nods before Necrozma shown a light on Mayumi's hand, causing three Z crystals to reveal themselves on it. The Solgalium Z, Lunalium Z and Ultranecrozium Z.
"These Z crystals… Are they for…" Starlight began.
"In that case, you two better take these." Mayumi said passing the Solgalium Z to Twilight and Lunalium Z to Hope.
"I'll make sure this is used properly." Twilight said.
"Me too." Hope said.
"And if you feel that you want them fused with Necrozma…" Mayumi said giving Twilight and hope two strange devices. They were called N-Solarizer and N-Lunarizer.
"Ah, that's right. That Colress guy gave us those while Starlight was in the Pokemon League." Genis said.
"Yeah. He felt kinda familiar but it'll be something we figure out another day." Connor said.
"Now if only we could figure out a way back to our Alola." Brandish said.
As the group celebrated, watching them from afar was a young man with a large pack as his phone rang.
"Hey, boss. No...they beat Necrozma. I couldn't get close to the List. So I guess now we go with plan B?" he asked. "Perfect. I'll make the call then. The call of Team Rocket's Revival!" he said.
