Location: Poni Island, Vast Poni Canyon, Altar(Alola)

Ash, lillie, gladion and hau got up to the top of the stairs, as soon as they did the team could see the rest alongside with kukui already waiting for them.

"What delayed you?" Ilima asked.

"Professor? Everyone?" Ash asked.

"How did you know we were going to come here?" Lillie asked.

"Professor kukui assumed you guys were going to come here, so we came ahead of you guys." Mallow answered.

Gladion could see someone from the corner of his eye.

"What is plumeria doing here?" He questioned.

"If it involves that idiot guzma, I'm involved." The skull admin replied.

"It's falling night, why don't we get started?" Kukui asked.

"You two play the flute, if what gary said is true then you two are the only ones here." Gladion responded.

Ash and lillie nodded as they each took out their individual flute, the sun flute on lillie's hand and the moon flute on ash's hand.

With two platforms the couple walked to the individual side of as they stood in the center, the two took a deep breath before playing their flute.

A calming sound was played from their flutes as a shine of light appeared around their platform and was soon connected to the symbol at the back center of the entire place.

The circle spun open to reveal a rainbow light as lillie's bag flew to the center platform on the altar, nebby who emerged from lillie's bag was now cloaked within the spiral of rainbow light as it started to change form.

The light broke apart as nebby was now a huge deep blue colored bat with crescents on each side of the wings and a smaller crescent as the head with two pink eyes as it gave a roar.

"NALA!" Nebby screeched.

Ash and lillie stopped playing their flutes as they stepped down from their platforms and walked towards the changed nebby.

"Nebby?" Lillie asked.

Nebby nodded before scratching its head and shaking it before facing lillie.

"Can you hear me?" The moone pokemon asked.

"You can talk?" She asked back.

"Through your minds yes, with my mouth no." Nebby answered.

"But at least it's you can hear me now." Nebby said with a tone of relief.

"Please nebby, can you bring us to where my mother is?" Lillie asked.

"Well I could, but I don't have my powers yet to open neutrally." Nebby answered.

"What do you mean?" Gladion asked this time around.

"To say things in a more simpler way, I can't open it neutrally yet, but something else can HELP me open it for you." Nebby explained.

"What is this thing you talk about nebby?" Ash asked curiously.

Nebby look up to the sky as a crystal flew down towards lillie, the blonde girl soon caught the crystal which has a moon symbol on it.

"Is this a z-crystal?" Lillie asked.

Nebby simply nodded.

"Why don't you try it lillie?" Mallow asked.

"It might work with you." Kiawe too added.

Lillie nodded as she put the newly acquired z-crystal on her ring.

"Before you use it lillie." Nebby said.

"With this body of mine, I can only bring five people along." Nebby stated.

"Well surely me and ash is going." Lillie said as ash walked up to her.

"I'm going as well, after no matter how evil she is, she is still my mother." Gladion chimed in as he walks up to them.

"Like I mention to you before, if guzma's on the other side I'm involved." Plumeria added before walking towards them.

"And the last?" Nebby asked.

"I'm going." Hau responded.

Nebby nodded as it bend down for them to climb up on its wings with lillie on its head as nebby spoke.

"The poses is the same as the ghost type move, but I must warn the rest of you."

"What is it?" Sophocles asked.

"When we pass through the portal, it shall we remain open until we come back and until we do, many more creatures will pass through it." Nebby warned.

"So, in other words we just have to beat them back right?" Kukui asked.

"That's right." Nebby answered.

"In that case I'm calling back up." Kukui said as he dialed a few numbers on his phone.

"Are you guys ready?" Lillie asked.

"As ready as we'll ever be." They responded.

"After this is all over I'm either going to have my grand trial here or going on a date with you." Ash said while facing lillie making her turn red.

"A-anyways let's get going." Lillie said as she turned the circle on the ring, crossed her arm and did a dance.

"Let's hope this strength that we give can help those in need." She said as a yellow aura appeared around her.

The aura was later transferred to nebby as a third eye appeared on its head as it roared to summon an ultra wormhole.

"Hold on tight!" Nebby yelled as it flapped its wing to take flight.

The moone pokemon soon charged through the portal towards an unknown destination, as a creature appeared from the portal.

"Let's get started." Ilima said as the trainers send out their pokemons.


Location: ?(?)

A portal opened as nebby arrived at a deep blue area where they could see many jellyfish-like creature all around.

"Where is this?" Gladion asked.

"Nihilego's home." Nebby answered.

"I'll have to guard the portal, you guys go on ahead." Nebby said as they nodded.

"We'll help you." Hau and gladion offered.

"Then we'll charge on ahead, let's go." Ash said to lillie and plumeria who nodded as they ran forward.

The trio soon ran up till a certain point to see someone lying on the ground, injured and with five pokemon around him.

"Guzma!" Plumeria yelled as she ran up to him.

"What the hell happen to you?" Ash asked.

"What the hell ya all here for?" Guzma asked.

"To take you back of course you idiot, or else why do you think we need to go through all this trouble!" Plumeria screeched.

"Heh." He chuckled before sitting up.

"Mr. Guzma, where's my mother?" Lillie asked.

"Even the little princess is here?" He asked.

"To regards of your question, she's lost her mind." Guzma replied.

"What do you mean?" Lillie asked.

"Like I said, she's gone too far gone." Guzma answered as lillie has a look of horror.

"When i say she's gone, doesn't mean she's dead ya fool, that woman still has hope so i recken you guys go now or it WILL really be too late." Guzma explained.

Lillie nodded as she ran up ahead alongside ash as guzma got up.

"Guzma, I know you have him on you." Plumeria spoke.

"Why don't you use him again and be like yourself like the last time?" She asked.

Guzma closed his eyes before taking out a pokeball.

"I'm counting on you now, my old friend." Guzma said as the pokeball jumped.

Meanwhile with ash and lillie.

"I think I see her up ahead!" Ash yelled.

The couple stopped to see lusamine sitting on a rock with a nihilego around her, the aether president soon glance towards the two.

"WHAT ARE YOU PEST DOING HERE?!" She roared.

"We're here to take you back, so please come back mother!" Lillie pleaded.

"Don't think your pleads will work on me, although I will give you another chance." Lusamine said with a grin.

"If you take care of that brat with you, I might forgive you." Lusamine offered.

"No mother, I will NOT!" Lillie yelled, as this made lusamine growl.

"Then I don't even need you here! This place is only meant for nihilego and me!" She yelled.

"If we can't talk you out then we'll just have to beat you out of it!" Ash yelled.

"YOU!" Lusamine hissed.

"THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Lusamine roared.

"IF you haven't came, things might have went well!" She yelled.

"Went well? Don't give me that joke, if things were to go well you wouldn't even need to do harm to them!" Ash hissed back.

"YOU BE QUIET!" Lusamine roared.

"Let's see how you talk when I crush you here!" She yelled as nihilego went to her.

Soon the two merged as nihilego's color turned black with lusamine inside of it as the aether president tossed out six of her pokeballs.

The ball burst open to reveal lusamine's mismagius salazzle alongside with a clefable, absol, milotic and a lilligant.

"Everyone, come on out!" Ash yelled.

His pokeballs burst open to reveal charizard, mudsdale, oricorio, salazzle, sandslash and hawlucha.

"Everyone, help me out!" Lillie yelled.

Her pokeballs burst open to reveal zoroark, ninetales, gardevoir, altaria and roserade.

"Mudsdale and oricorio, help lillie out, the rest we're taking care of that monster." Ash said while glaring at lusamine as mudsdale and oricorio ran to lillie.

"Charizard, flamethrower!" Ash ordered.

Charizard opened his mouth to fire a stream of hot flames, as lusamine jab the ground with a tentacle as a huge wall came up to block the attack.

"Sandslash use hail!"

Sandslash gave a cry as a snowstorm came upon the area as she disappeared.

Lusamine soon created a few rocks as she launched it towards ash's side.

"Hawlucha use karate chop!"

The wrestling pokemon soon smashed the rocks with hand glowing white.

"Salazzle and charizard, overheat! Sandslash use metal claw!"

Salazzle and charizard opened their mouth to fire a giant stream of fire as sandslash appeared above lusamine with claw glowing in a metallic light.

The now merged aether president grabbed and tossed sandslash away as she swiped away the fire.

"You're never going to touch me with those weak attacks!" She growled.

"Sandslash use icicle crush to create a wall!"

Sandslash who reappeared created a light blue orba as she tossed it to the skies as ice spikes rained down to create a wall in front of the team.

"Iron tail!"

Charizard and salazzle soon smashed the wall of ice as shards flew towards lusamine.

"Flying press!"

Hawlucha who came from the hailing storm dived down upon lusamine.

Nihilego's sound can be heard as hawlucha was blast away by a nearby nihilego with a purple beam as lusamine smashed the icy shards.

"Hawlucha!" ash yelled as he ran towards the wrestling pokemon.

"You alright?" He asked as hawlucha nodded.

"Man, she's persistent, not only that but more nihilego's showed up and to top it all of even she's merged with one." Ash said with a sigh.

"Charizard steel wing on the extras!"

Charizard gave a loud roar as he charged through while knocking away all the interfering nihilego's.

An epxlosion was heard on lillie's side of the field as ash turn his head.

"Lillie!" He yelled.

"I'm fine ash! Just please focus on my mother!" She yelled back.

Ash could see that the only pokemon standing at her side was ninetales, gardevoir and his mudsdale.

"Man, this is not going too well." Ash said as he recalled hawlucha.

"Guys! We're joining up with lillie!" he yelled to his pokemons as they ran towards lillie.

"But what about my mother?" She asked in concern.

"Don't worry, if we can knock out her pokemons early the earlier we can deal with her, and besides your more important to me then a fight." He said with a smile.

Clefable soon charged a pink ball as ash got ready.

"Here comes a moonblast." He said.

But before clefable could launch the fairy type attack, she was toppled over by a jab to the stomach.

Ash and lillie lift their heads to see who was clefable's assaulter as it was revealed to be a beedrill but of a different form.

The beedrill was much larger with five stingers, two large stinger's on its hands, two smaller stinger as its feet and a fifth at it abdomen with wings and antennae much smaller.

"Is that a beedrill?" Ash asked.

"it is, although that is a MEGA BEEDRILL!" The voice yelled.

The two turns to see guzma walking up to them along with plumeria.

"Ya'all can rest now, I'll take care of this." He said as he marched up front.

"Yo beedrill, fifteen years you ready?" He asked.

Beedrill simply nodded as lillie look at plumeria.

"Since when did mr. Guzma has a beedrill?" She asked.

"When he travelled through kanto." Plumeria answered.

"And you might want to focus on the president ash." Plumeria said finally using ash's name.

"Alright, mudsdale and salazzle return." He recalled the two injured pokemon as he walked up to lusamine.

"Your bad deeds end here lusamine!" Ash announced.

Ash who stood in front of lusamine could see the reflective floor, ash who glance closer to see something else as he smirked.

"Everyone, return." Ash said as he recalled both charizard, oricorio and sandslash.

"Why is he recalling everyone?" Plumeria asked.

"His not planning to fight this with his body is he?" Guzma questioned.

"Ash is not that rash!" Lillie yelled.

"Three years, although i don't know how you got here." He said while confusing everyone.

"You might have followed me by some unknown means that I don't know but GET OUT HERE!" he yelled.

At the sound of his roar a shine of purple light can be seen as something came from the ground flying a huge circle before floating in front of ash.

What came from the ground was a long serpentine dragon with six ghostly streamers on its back with a lot of spikes around its body and two big golden one covering its mouth.

"Yo what the hell is that!" Guzma yelled.

"Ash who is that? A pokemon you know?" Lillie asked.

Ash soon nodded as he looked at the pokemon.

"Giratina, long time no see, three years?" He asked as giratina roared.

"How did you get in here anyways?" He asked curiously.

But he got his answer as giratina disappeared as it reappeared in front of him as ash smiled.

"My gangs too tired to fight, so you want to help me?" He asked.

Giratina responded by releasing the bindings covering its mouth and blasting the nearby nihilego's with a gust of draconic energy.

"Dragon pulse!"

Giratina once again released its mouth from the bindings as it launched a beam of draconic energy.

Lusamine who hurriedly blocked herself as the attack ended to see giratina nowhere in sight.

Soon enough giratina reappeared behind her as the renegade pokemon struck her down with claws of shadow.

"Mother!" Lillie yelled as she ran towards lusamine.

Lusamine who got back up was now angrier then before.

"Lunala, help me!" lillie yelled as nebby came out from behind her.

The moone pokemon screeched before blasting lusamine with a beam as the aether president was seperated from nihilego.

"Giratina, chase that thing away with dragon tail!"

Giratina who complied send the remaining nihilego flying with tail glowing with draconic energy as it gave a loud roar before disappearing.

"Mother!" Lillie yelled.

"Mother, please wake up!" she pleaded as hau and gladion ran in.

"Mother!" Gladion yelled as he ran up to lusmaine.

Lusamine who woke up looked around the place.

"Lillie? Gladion?" she asked.

"Yes mother, it's me and brother." Lillie said with tears in her eyes.

"How did you two come here?" she asked weakly.

"We came here thanks to nebby mother." Lillie answered as lusamine smiled.

"Nebby huh? i see, so cosmog evolved." She said as lusamine looked at gladion.

"I'm so sorry for putting you two through this." She apologized.

"No please don't be mother, but why did you do all this?" Gladion asked.

"It was all in an attempt to find your father." She replied.

"But you could have told us!" Gladion yelled.

Ash, hau, plumeria and guzma could only do so much as watch the scene.

"But I thought you would be disappointed in me for an incomplete family." She replied.

"So, I went through your father's research and opened an ultra wormhole of my own, but it didn't go well." She explained.

"So what if our family is incomplete? you going insane or worse vanish is the last thing we need!" Lillie yelled.

"You sure have grown up a lot, both of you." Lusamine said with a weak smile.

"And I see that you finally got yourself a boyfriend." lusamine said as she faced lillie.

"Are you really alright, miss lusamine?" Ash asked.

"I'm fine, and I'm sorry for what I've done." Lusamine apologized.

"Don't be, but the one you should be truly sorry to is the two in front of you." Ash replied.

"You sure found yourself a reliable man lillie." Lusamine said as lillie smiled.

"Let's get you out of here mother." Lillie said as both siblings helped lusamine up.

"Nebby please bring us back, I know we have another two more passengers." She said as nebby scratched its head.

"Alright but hang on tighter than before." Nebby said as they flew out of the dimension.


Location: Poni Island, Vast Poni Canyon, Altar(Alola)

A portal opened as nebby flew out with its passengers, as they landed.

"Is everyone alright?" Ash asked.

"We're all fine." Kiawe answered.

"So I see you came back guzma?" Kukui asked.

"Yeah, my bad for worrying you." He said as a new voice chimed.

"So you don't care about me?" This made guzma tense up.

The skull boss slowly turns his head as he faced a woman wearing a golfball attire.

"Hey there kahili." Guzma responded.

"Ten years?" he asked.

Soon enough guzma earned a slap to the face from kahili making ash, lillie and everyone else present flinch at the noise made.

"That has got to hurt." Ash responded.

"Badly." Gladion added.

"Are woman always this scary." Hau responded.

"Only when you make us angry." Lillie and lusamine replied.

"You have the guts to tell me ten years!" Kahili screamed as kukui who was with molayne could only watch with fear.

"Care to explain." Ash leaned towards kukui as he asked in a whispering tone.

"You can say love." kukui simply responded.

After the catastrophe, kukui cleared his throat as he faced the gang.

"Everyone I have something to say." Kukui spoke getting everyone's attention.

"I have just finish establishing the league, the FIRST ever alola league." Kukui announced.

"And the cost?" ash asked.

"Nothing!" Kukui said with a smiled as the three trial goers went silent.

"That means." Ash started.

"We just wasted." Gladion added.

"Our precious time!" Hau finished.

"Not really." Kukui chimed in.

"You gain new friends, and more battling experience." The professor said.

"And I've given out an announcement to the world." kukui added.

"So, they'll be here?" Ash asked.

"I've heard from gary, yes they will be but if you want-" before kukui could finish ash interupted him.

"No please don't, you've done enough for me and I don't want to give you any unnecessary trouble." ash replied.

"Very well, the league will start in a week, so within then I wish everyone one of you luck." Kukui said as he smiled.

"I've got to go, so I'll see around mount lanakila where everything will be held." kukui finished as he left.

"I guess we should go, too." guzma said as he left with plumeria.

"You're not forgetting about me this time." Kahili growled as guzma silently gulped.

"Guess I'll just go back home." Hau said as he ran off.

"I'm going back to aether paradise, you guys following?" gladion asked.

"Sure, but nebby?" Lillie turned around and asked the moone pokemon.

"I know what you want to ask lillie, so yes I will follow you." Nebby answered.

Lillie smiled as she took out an empty pokeball as nebby tapped it, soon enough nebby was sucked in as the ball clicked without a sign of struggle.

"Welcome to the team, nebby." Lillie whispered.

"Alright let's go." Lillie said as ash called gary to send gallade over.


Location: Boat to Poni Island(Alola)

On a boat to poni island boards brocks group.

"You guys heard the league is going to be in alola!" max yelled.

"Of course, we did, and the winner gets to be champion." iris squealed as cilan smiled.
