BGM: The Crown Tundra (Pokemon Sword & Shield)

"Here you are, little one~!" Yang smiled, giving a little spoonful of curry to Apollo.

"Pew!" Apollo smiled, happily eating it.

"Aww, it's adorable!" Sonia giggled, gently poking him on the cheek with a giggle.

"Ah, that was an excellent meal!" Terrakion said happily.

"Indeed. It was delicious." Virizion nodded.

"Aww, thanks…" Gloria blushed.

Yang gently patted the Cosmog's head before her eyes shifted to Cobalion, his eyes focused on the Cosmog. "Um… something wrong?"

"How long have you had that Cosmog, Yang?"

"Oh… a few hours, I think. Why?"

"I see…" Cobalion closed his eyes. "Everyone, there was another reason why we came here to the Crown Tundra."

"There was?" Weiss asked.

"Yes. Aside from exploring the vastness of Galar… there in lies another reason why we came. Have any of you heard of the Ultra Beasts?"

"Ultra Beasts…" Blake folded her arms. "It sounds familiar."

"Oh! You mean those strange creatures that attacked the Alola Region?" Sonia asked. "I've heard a trainer has one of them with him… Necrozma, I think."

"Yes. Young Umber had fought the Ultra Beasts along with his friends. However, he only caught a few of them. They are currently being studied in the Aether Foundation, run by young Gladion. These Ultra Beasts come from a dimension called Ultra Space, and within it lies different worlds where these Ultra Beasts live."

"So… are they like… Pokemon or something?" Nora asked.

"At first glance, they do not look like Pokemon, but rest assured… they are." Virizion said. "However, they are different than normal Pokemon. They are extremely dangerous for they are chaotic in nature."

"Nihilego, while it is the less harmful of the Ultra Beasts, it relies on instinct. Its tentacles host neurotoxins and if it latches on to someone, it can make them go completely insane." Terrakion said. "Just like what happened with Lillie's mother, Lusamine. It got to the point where she merged with one and became known as the Motherbeast. Luckily, she was taken down and as far as we know, she is still comatose. She was going to be taken to Kanto, but Gladion suggested that she be kept at the Aether Foundation so everyone can keep an eye on her."

"That was in an alternate timeline." Cobalion told him. "It didn't happen here."

"It didn't? …Oh that's right, it didn't." Terrakion sweatdropped. "These alternate timelines can be so confusing…"

"I am not sure why anyone would want to keep a Nihilego. You have to be absolutely crazy to keep one as a pet." Keldeo said. "Even if you found a way to be immune to its toxins, you'd still go insane."

"Buzzwole, one of the more powerful Ultra Beasts." Cobalion spoke up. "It relies on its strength and its muscles-"

"Muscles?" Weiss raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, it tends to flex its muscles. No one knows if it just wants to show off or it is a sign of aggression."

"Heh, we got muscles!" Nora said, flexing her forearm.

"Yes, but it's deadlier than that." Terrakion said. "It's a hulking mosquito you don't want to mess with."

"A mosquito?!" Weiss yelled. "Oh great…"

"A mosquito that did not miss arm day…" Nora's eyes sparkled. "Ooooh, I sense an arm wrestling competition with that one!"

"It will also suck all the blood out of you." Virizion warned.

"EXTREME ARM WRESTLING! WHO'S WITH ME!" Nora exclaimed, earning a smack upside the head from Ren. "Ooof! What? I was joking!"

"Don't believe her? One sucked out all the fat out of a Snorlax and it was flat as a pancake as a result." Terrakion said.

Summer paled at the thought. "Oh my… that's… completely horrific."

"You still want to go through with that?" Jaune asked.

"I'll just take a bath in insect repellent, then I'll be ready to take it on." Nora said, causing everyone to sweatdrop.

"…Your funeral." Terrakion mumbled under his breath.

"Then we have Pheromosa, who is one of the more unique of the Ultra Beasts." Cobalion said. "It is human-like in nature and resembles a woman, but is also in the shape of a cockroach."

"A humanoid cockroach…" Winter shook her head. "Now I've heard everything."

"This one is one of the more vain Ultra Beasts. It uses its beauty to attract any lifeform, regardless of gender. Anyone who lays eyes on it will unwittingly be amazed by its beauty, and then uses its lightning speed to attack. However, there is one weakness to Pheromosa… and that is the fact that it cannot take a hit." Keldeo said.

"So anyone can knock it senseless…" Weiss mused. "Even the weakest?"

"Like a Skitty?" Neptune glanced over at Kali.

"Hey, she tries her best!" Kali said and snuggled Chamomile. "Yes, don't you snookums? Yes, yes you do!"

"Mrow~!"

Blake rolled her eyes at her mother's affection toward the Skitty. "So, what's next?"

"Xurkitree. This electrifying Ultra Beast can stab its tentacles into the ground and absorb electricity if it is low on energy." Virizion said.

Nora perked up. "I found my spirit Pokemon~!"

"And Pancakes wasn't?" Pyrrha looked at her weirdly.

"It also raids power plants." Cobalion said.

"…Great, another energy crisis." Gloria groaned.

"I'm willing to bet my brother would have a field day with that particular beast." Peony mused.

"Forgot to mention that it looks like a tree." Virizion said.

"Its body contains an organ that produces energy, and it can discharge up to 1,000,000 volts at once. At least, that's what I've heard about it." Keldeo said.

Nora's eyes sparkled. "I'm loving this more and more~!"

"Wouldn't that kill you?" Peonia wondered.

"Hey, I got hit by lightning and I unlocked my semblance. I didn't even die." Nora said. "And considering I have the Thunder Hand, I've got endless electricity coursing through my veins. Hehehehe, I can just see myself being best friends with this big guy!"

"Next is Celesteela, which is one of the more taller ones if it feels like it." Cobalion said.

"Feels like it?" Tai raised an eyebrow.

"Sometimes Celesteela tends to shrink itself down if it doesn't want to be at its original height. Anyway, Celesteela isn't known to be aggressive and can be quite gentle… that being said, it is still dangerous as its thrusters can accidentally burn up an entire forest."

"Oh, I kinda feel sorry for the poor guy…" Sun said.

"It's also one of the heaviest." Terrakion said. "2204.4 pounds… or 999.9 kilograms, depending on your preference."

"Holy…" Weiss whispered in shock.

"Next is Kartana, known as the smallest Ultra Beast and is origami shaped. A single swipe from its blade can knock down a tower." Virizion said.

"It's also one of the more arrogant Ultra Beasts." Keldeo added.

"How so?" Yang asked.

"According to them, anything that it cuts is deemed a "worthless object". One of the more excitable Ultra Beasts if we've ever seen one." Terrakion said and shook his head. "I've yet to see one cut something that won't be cut into pieces."

"Hmm… the Master Sword?" Jaune guessed.

"What about that Youmu girl? I'm sure she wouldn't mind fighting that thing." Nyx said.

"I was thinking the same thing." Weiss agreed.

"Next up is Guzzlord… and it's one of the most dangerous Ultra Beast." Cobalion said grimly. "It can eat anything in sight. Mountains, buildings, the ocean… anything it has its sights on. It will eat, and will continue eating. It is extremely gluttonous."

"Not unless you sic a Fairy/Ice or another Dragon Type on it! Ahahahaha!" Terrakion laughed. "Or heck, we can take care of that bad boy ourselves!"

"Indeed." Cobalion nodded.

"So it's Kirby, yet more destructive… joy…" Weiss groaned.

"Welp, that's gonna be a problem…" Ren quietly said.

"Next we have Poipole… while it is small and can look quite adorable, it can spray opponents with poison from the needles on its head. It is also the only known Ultra Beast that can evolve. Naganadel. Their poison can be quite adhesive, so be careful… because that poison will stick on you for quite a while." Virizion said.

"Poison that sticks on you… that's horrific…" Whitley shuddered.

"If it helps, Poipole is surprisingly the least threatening." Keldeo said. "Naganadel, not so much."

"Then we have Stakataka. It is, shall we say, a moving wall." Cobalion said. "Each brick is a life form."

"So, we got a wall that contains dozens of different life forms… okay, that's kinda creepy." Jaune said.

"The walls have eyes~!" Nora said in a sing songy voice, causing Jaune to shudder.

"Then there's Blacephalon. It is extremely clown-like and will aim to get your guard down. Once it does, it will detach its head and throw it at you… and said head will explode and drain your life force." Terrakion said. "And before you ask, no, it doesn't die. It regrows its head."

"Goodness!" Klein said. "That might be one of the most insane Ultra Beast we've heard!"

"And last but not least, there is Necrozma. While there are many Ultra Beasts found in Ultra Space… as far as we know, there is only one Necrozma, and thankfully… Umber has it with him. It feeds on light, but it is not doing it maliciously. It is how it keeps it going." Virizion said.

"So why tell us all this?" Ghira spoke up. "There must be a reason why. Is there an outbreak of the Ultra Beasts that we are not aware of?"

"You see, there was an attack in one part of Ultra Space not long ago. A Solgaleo and a Lunala were attacked by these Ultra Beasts and they had to flee… they had a Cosmog with them." Cobalion explained. "They came to hide in the Max Den, but the Ultra Beasts had caught up with them. In the chaos, the Cosmog was separated from its parents and it got lost in the aftermath. It then wandered around the Crown Tundra carefree. The Solgaleo and Lunala have called out for help… that is why you see the Legendaries in the Dynamax Adventures, as they call it… because they are looking for the Pokemon to aid them in battle. They still haven't found them… which is where we had to step in and help, but not even we can find those two, but everyone is pitching in and trying to help… even Mewtwo is helping out, as prideful as he is…"

"So… this Cosmog…" Yang looked down at Apollo. "It's the child of that Solgaleo and Lunala?"

"It is." Virizion nodded.

"Oh…" Yang looked a bit saddened, gently petting him on the head.

"I think I saw a Solgaleo in the den…" Peonia mused. "Although, it could have been an Entei…"

Sonia let out a gasp. "Wait a minute! If the Ultra Beasts are here, than that would mean that Galar is in danger!" She said. "Oh, this is not good… personally, I want to do research on these Ultra Beasts, but we have to save Galar from total annihilation. Is there any way to stop them? Because I'm willing to bet that KO'ing them won't do them any good!"

"There is a way. If you put them into a Beast Ball, that should be able to contain them. However, there are no signs of any of them here." Terrakion said.

"Well, actually…" Gloria reached into her bag and pulled one out. "I found this lyin' around at Stow-on Side the other day."

"Come to think of it, I did see that researcher lady have a boat load of Beast Balls…" Peonia said.

"Then that's what we're gonna have to do!" Sonia said.

"Indeed. Get as much as we possibly can, and then go into the den." Virizion said.

"We've got no time to lose!" Gloria exclaimed as they took off to the Den.


Once there

"Hmm? Yeah, I have plenty of Beast Balls." One of the researchers said.

"We will need some on stand by. The Ultra Beasts are in there somewhere." Cobalion said.

"The Ultra Beasts? Oh, those strange Pokemon that came out of the den recently?"

End BGM

Cobalion's eyes widened. "What did you say?!"

"Yeah, they were walking out and they looked so odd… why, are you looking for them?"

"It's an emergency, lass!" Gloria said. "Galar is in danger! …Again, but this time it's not the Darkest Day!"

"They're probably looking for the Cosmog. Oh no, did the Solgaleo and Lunala…" Virizion wondered.

"I'm hoping that's not the case." Terrakion said.

"Give us all the Beast Balls you have, lady!" Peony said, grabbing her by the shoulders. "It's a matter of life or death in the Galar Region!"

"Alright, alright!" She sweatdropped. "I can give you at least… fifty! Would that be enough?"

"That's good enough for us!" Peony said, taking the fifty Beast Balls as they ran outside. "Penny! SAPR! Where are the Ultra Beasts?" He called out.

"It seems they have spread out to all of Galar." Penny said.

"Definitely. Though I am not detecting a Poipole or a Naganadel." SAPR said.

"They probably weren't interested in attacking the two. In any case, we must move and find them before Galar is in ruins." Cobalion said as everyone nodded. "Now let's spread out!"

"Think we should get Umber here?" Blake asked.

"It's probably a good idea." Weiss nodded.

Rosalina floated up. "I will go get Youmu. She may be helpful with that Kartana." She said and teleported away.


Later

BGM: Near an Ultra Beast (Pokemon Sun & Moon)

Nihilego - Gloria, Peony, Peonia - Galar Mine

"Gotta thank those Aether Foundation lads for these devices." Gloria said, looking over an Ultra Beast Radar. "Let's see… it should be around here somewhere…" She said.

"Over there!" Peonia pointed in the distance as they would see the Nihilego curiously looking at a few Woobat and Drillbur.

"Hey!" Peony yelled. "Big ugly jellyfish! We're over here!" He said as the Nihilego turned around and let out a cry.

End BGM

BGM: Battle! Ultra Beasts (Pokemon Sun & Moon)

UB-01 Symbiont - Nihilego

"…That's a Pokemon?" Gloria tilted her head. "Eh, whatever… we got this!" She said, calling out her Kingler.

"Kookie!" It cried as Peony called out his Aggron and Peonia called out Tyrantrum.

The Nihilego unleashed Power Gem on the trio, but the three of them dodged. Is it a Rock Type? Gloria wondered. "Hit it with a Crabhammer!" She ordered as the Kingler rushed over at Nihilego and used Crabhammer, but the Nihilego dodged the attack… but it got hit by Aggron's Iron Head that knocked it toward a rock wall where Tyrantrum threw down a Stone Edge. The Nihilego let out another cry and threw out Venom Drench, but Kingler had dodged it and then struck it with another Crabhammer, knocking the Nihilego down.

"And here we go!" Gloria yelled, throwing the Beast Ball at the Nihilego, and with three shakes, it was caught after a click.

End BGM

"Got ya!" She grinned and then picked it up. "Alright, let's take this back to Sonia."

"Heck, if it was that easy… I'm sure the other Ultra Beasts are a breeze!" Peony grinned.


Buzzwole - MAJC, Ghira and Kali - Forest of Focus

BGM: The Encounter (Kingdom Hearts III)

"HIYAAAAAAAH!" Mona yelled, delivering a punch toward the Buzzwole but it had blocked the attack with its own fist. Both of them slid back as the Pokemon in the area were either evacuating or busy watching the chaos unfold in front of their eyes.

UB-02 Absorption - Buzzwole

"Geez, when they said this mosquito had muscles, they weren't kiddin'!" Camrin said.

"Glad we saved that Vileplume…" Zoey said.

Buzzwole flexed its muscles, pounding its fists together as it turned its head to see Ghira coming in swinging with his claws, slashing at the giant mosquito but it blocked with its arms and tried to stick its proboscis into him, but Mona came running over and punched it in the head to knock it back. Buzzwole turned around and started punching Mona with Dynamic Punch, unaware of Camrin running behind it and then gave it a good kick from behind as Jen would shoot at the Buzzwole.

The Buzzwole uprooted a tree after it was punched away by Mona as it threw it directly at Jen, her eyes widened in surprise as she rolled out of the way as Anthony and Zoey would rush over at Buzzwole as they both swung their Dust Staff and Feather Duster at it. Buzzwole grabbed Zoey and Anthony in retaliation and threw them to the ground. Mona came running in and slugged it in the gut to make it hunch over and then delivered an uppercut to its non-existent chin, then Ghira came running over and clawed at it right after to knock it down as Mona would grab a leg and spin it around before throwing it directly toward a tree, knocking it down as Kali prepared a Beast Ball and threw it at the Buzzwole where it slowly rose… and then the Beast Ball bopped it on the head before landing on the ground after catching it. It let out a click after it shook three times.

End BGM

"Woo! That was fun~!" Mona smiled.

"Yeah, I can tell you had a blast." Chloe chuckled, checking Mona for any injury she may have while Kali picked up the Beast Ball.

"I never thought I'd see a mosquito with muscles…" Kali said and let out a chuckle. "A strange universe we live in."

"At least the Pokemon here are safe." Ghira said with Kali nodding at him.


Pheromosa - The Schnees (Minus Weiss), Ling - Motostoke Riverbank

"It should be right about… here." Willow said, looking into the radar.

"Hmm…" Whitley looked around and then spotted the Pheromosa gently shaking a tree as a berry landed in its hands. "Is that it?" He wondered.

"Yup, that's it." Willow nodded as the Pheromosa turned around and looked at them.

"…Oh my… it's… it's pretty…" Winter said.

"Yeah, it sure is." Ling agreed.

"Indeed. Such a majestic beauty." Klein said as everyone was caught in Pheromosa's beauty.

"Phero…" Pheromosa quietly cried before rushing at them to give them a good kick. Winter snapped out of her daze as she quickly blocked the attack and parried it away.

BGM: Yo, Go Crazy! (Shantae and the Pirate's Curse)

Femme Fatale - Pheromosa

"Snap out of it!" Winter yelled, but noticed everyone was still stuck in their gaze. "Rrrgh, fine…" She said as Pheromosa looked at Winter as it ran over to her and delivered a High Jump Kick, but she blocked with her rapier and then counter attacked. She called out Crystal for assistance, but even the Ninetales was stuck in a gaze. She let out a groan as she rushed over at the Pheromosa, slashing it on the bridge as it backed up and got in a fighting stance where Winter did the same.

Pheromosa rushed at Winter, delivering a flip kick that knocked Winter up in the air but she recovered as she made a few glyphs as several icebergs came flying out as Pheromosa kicked one away but was pelted by the others. Pheromosa shook it off and rushed at Winter, the latter doing the same as both slashed/kicked each other and knocked each other back.

"Wow. Look at it fight. It's so gorgeous and elegant." Whitley said.

"I feel so sorry for it getting hurt by Winter." Klein said.

"Will you snap out of it!" Winter yelled as she was kicked in the gut by Pheromosa as it then ran over and did another Hi Jump Kick but Winter summoned a gravity glyph to block Pheromosa's attack, then she countered with a fierce swing to knock Pheromosa on its back. She then ran over and grabbed the Beast Ball out of Klein's hand and then threw it at the Pheromosa, where it gave three shakes and a click.

End BGM

"Huh?" Willow shook her head. "What happened? Were we in a daze?"

"I'm not sure how I managed to snap out of it… but I'm glad you finally came to your senses." Winter said, picking up the Beast Ball.

"Well, that was embarrassing…" Whitley blushed in embarrassment.


Xurkitree - JNPR, Penny, SAPR - Energy Plant

"There it is." Jaune said, peeking out of a corner with the others.

"That is the oddest looking thing I've seen…" Penny said.

"So, how do we go about it?" SAPR asked as they huddled together.

"Okay, here's what we do." Jaune said. "We go and attack that Ultra Beast… and then when it is weak, we grab it. Now Penny, you and SAPR go and distract it while we go in and pummel it with our Pokemon. Nora can finish it off with Lucy and then we-"

"Uh, Jaune?" Pyrrha spoke up.

"Yes?"

"Nora's gone."

"Huh?!" Jaune would notice a blinking white outline of Nora.

"Hey there big guy!" Nora said, catching the Xurkitree's attention.

"Nora, no!" Jaune groaned.

"Wait! Let's see what she does first." Ren said.

The Xurkitree would turn around and supposedly looked at Nora. It tilted its head at her. "My my, you look so tall and strong! And you look so electrifying!"

Xurkitree let out a cry and wrapped its arms around Nora. "Nora!" SAPR would try to run toward her.

"Wait!" Ren told her.

The Xurkitree would zap Nora with its own electricity, but to its surprise, Nora wasn't even screaming in agony. "Nothing you can do about it. I'm immune~!" She smiled as the Xurkitree tried to increase its power, but nothing seemed to work. It would soon exhaust itself and tried to plug itself into the ground. "Wait! You don't have to do that." She said as she offered her hand, electricity sparking out of her hand. "I'm an unlimited source of electricty, you can use mine to recharge." She said as the Xurkitree curiously (and supposedly) looked into Nora's hand before shoving its plugs into her hand. "Mmph!" She winced. "Yeah, that's it… take all you need." She said, watching the electricity go through it as Xurkitree started to light up like a Christmas tree.

"There, you see? Nothing to worry about!" Nora smiled as Xurkitree removed itself from Nora… before it wrapped its arms around Nora, this time more gently. "Aww, you just needed a friend, didn't ya?" She giggled as she wrapped her arms around the Ultra Beast. She held the Beast Ball in her hands and was ready to capture it… but she dropped it. "You're not so bad. You're not like the other Ultra Beasts, are you? Come on." She gently took its hand and walked over to the others.

"…Well, that went better than expected!" Penny said.

"Wow, that was so cool!" SAPR smiled.

"Yeah, it was! Way to go, Nora!" Jaune said, raising his hand up as Nora raised her hand up as well.

"NORA, NO!" Ren yelled, but Jaune and Nora high fived each other… and Jaune got harshly electrocuted.

"BZZZT HGRRKGRRKGRRRRK!"

"Oh!" Nora pulled away. "Was I overloaded?" She asked as Jaune coughed out smoke before falling on his back.

"That's a yes…" Pyrrha sweatdropped.

"I can't feel my torso…" Jaune groaned as Penny went right to work on healing up the poor guy.


Celesteela - Rosalina, Neo and the Frozen Squad - Potbottom Desert

"Mmmph! Kind of a nasty sandstorm, don't you think?" The Blizzybody winced.

"I got this." Rosalina said, clapping her hands and sent off a cosmic shockwave that dismissed the sandstorm.

"You can do that?!" Neo signed in surprise.

"Mhm." Rosalina nodded and then spotted the Celesteela curiously putting its hand out at a Braviary. They walked over to the Celesteela as it turned its head curiously to look at them. "Hello there!"

"Funny, it doesn't look very tall…" The Blizzybody said.

Rosalina approached it as the Celesteela curiously reached its hand out to the cosmic woman and picked her up. Neo quickly pulled out her umbrella and was ready to fight but she would quickly notice Rosalina wasn't squirming, nor was the Celesteela harming her. Once they made eye contact, Celesteela let go of Rosalina, but she stayed there, floating in front of it.

BGM: Personality Quiz (Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX)

Rosalina closed her eyes. You are otherworldly, just like me. She said telepathically.

Who are you?

My name is Rosalina.

Are youare you a princess?

Rosalina giggled. No. My Lumas call me a princess like they call me mama. But I have no royal blood within me.

Oh.

I have heard much about you and the other Ultra Beastsbut, I can tell that you mean no harm.

I do not mean to harm others, but when I take off, they are always singed and dead. I am afraid if I take off, these creatures in this desert will be scorched.

Have you ever thought about using less of your rocket power?

Hmm? What do you mean?

I mean if you use less power as you take off, the exhaust of your power will not harm these Pokemon.

II never thought of it like that. If I use less of my power, I will save them?

Yes. That is my theory, anyway.

Youyou are so wise. I've never met a human such as you. Did you know this is not my normal height? I can get bigger.

I've heard… and I believe that you can.

Can Ican I come with you, Rosalina?

Rosalina smiled. You may. She extended her hand out and touched Celesteela's hand.

"…What are they doing? They've been staring at each other for a long time." The Slimecicle said.

"Kinda creepy…" Blizzybody said as Rosalina turned to them.

It is my telepathy.

"…Oh, that explains it." Neo let out a silent giggle.

End BGM

Rosalina gently floated to the ground as she and Celesteela walked together toward the two. "So, how big can this thing can get?" The Blizzybody wondered as the Celesteela turned to Rosalina as she let out a nod. Celesteela then grew up to its enormous height, startling Neo and her squad as they backed up a little intimidated.

"Why, if I'm not mistaken, that is 9.2 meters tall, or 30'02''. Rosalina mused. "Impressive!" She said, watching it shrink back down to about ten feet.


Kartana - Youmu, Summer, Sonia - Motostoke

A light pole fell on the street. "Again, I cut a worthless object! Again, again!" Kartana said and then cut a fire hydrant in half. "Again, I cut! Again, again!" He said as the onlookers were screaming and running away in horror from the little guy.

"You!" A voice called out as Kartana turned to see Youmu pointing her sword at it. "You stop cutting things right now!" She said, as Summer summoned daggers in her hands and Sonia had her Yamper out.

"Objects worth cutting! Worthless objects are meant to be cut!"

"You're not cutting through this." Youmu said, getting in her stance.

BGM: Samurai/Devotion (For Honor)

UB-04 Blade - Kartana

Kartana and Youmu stood perfectly still, a soft breeze blew threw the air as both of them were locked in a standstill. The two waited for the other to move, and then in a flash, both of them lunged at each other and slashed, both of their blades locked and they looked at each other as Kartana pushed Youmu away and slashed her repeatedly, but Youmu swiftly blocked and parried the attack. To Kartana's surprise, Youmu's sword did not shatter. "This is a bad cut!"

"For such a little thing, you're quite fast!" Youmu said, finding an opening and slashing at Kartana, sending him back a few feet. Kartana would throw down a Leaf Blade in retaliation, but Youmu would gracefully block the attack, but the force was enough to push her back. She would retaliate by throwing danmaku at it, which would cleanly cut through the danmaku as it would clap its blade hands together as the ground underneath Youmu rumbled. She looked down and then quickly backflipped as a Guillotine snapped up, but missed the phantom swordswoman. The creature dug back underground as Kartana rushed at Youmu and slashed her, but she swiftly blocked the attack.

Summer rushed over to Kartana and slashed at it, but it would quickly block these attacks as Summer would front flip and then attempt to slash at it, but Kartana would block these easily and slashed upward to disarm Summer and then in the blink of an eye, it sliced Summer's arm clean off. "AAAAAAAAAAGH!" Summer screamed, causing Youmu to gasp.

"Summer!" Sonia exclaimed, watching some blood coming out of her socket.

"That was a good cut!" Kartana said, but then noticed Summer picked her arm back up and reattached it.

"Just kidding~!"

"Wh-what?! I am confused… was that a good cut or a bad cut?! Worthless or not worthless?!"

"Quick, Spark it!" Sonia ordered as the Yamper rushed over at the very confused Kartana and struck it with Spark, where a few electric bolts surged around Kartana. "Perfect, it's paralyzed!" She said, throwing the Beast Ball, snagging it with three shakes. "Got ya!"

End BGM

"Are you okay?" Youmu asked with concern. "Did it even hurt at all?"

"Oh no, it hurt like hell… but it's the perks of being a ghost. I can just reattach it." Summer giggled.

"What about the blood? There was-" She noticed the blood on the ground was gone. "…Huh?"

"Ghostly illusion. Would a ghost actually bleed?" Summer winked.

Youmu sweatdropped. "Uh… no, I guess…" She said, rubbing the back of her hair.

"So, was that intentional?" Sonia wondered.

"No, I wasn't really planning on getting disarmed like that. I was hoping I'd weaken it for ya…" Summer sheepishly rubbed the back of her head.

"Well, to be fair, that thing was tiny." Youmu said.

"True." Summer nodded in agreement.


Guzzlord - RWBY, The Swords of Justice - Dusty Bowl

Ruby peeked behind a rock. "Is that the Guzzlord right there?" She wondered, staring at it as it was eating up some trees.

"Yup, it sure is…" Blake said.

"Alright, nice and slow…" Yang said as they started to sneak up on it, but Yang would walk right on a stick and it would let out another loud snap! Yang cringed. "What's with all these sticks?!" She whispered as they looked up and saw Guzzlord turning around and looking at the four.

Weiss paled at the sight of it. "Okay, that is completely horrifying…" She said, nearly backing up. Guzzlord eyed the four and let out a loud scream that made the four cover their ears.

"Aheheheh… RUN!" Ruby yelled as they took off running as the Guzzlord chased after them… but then Cobalion jumped off of a rock and used Sacred Sword on the Guzzlord, making it slide back a bit.

BGM: Battle! Cobalion/Virizion/Terrakion (Pokemon Black/White)

UB-05 Glutton - Guzzlord

"We'll take it from here!" Cobalion said as he, Virizion, Terrakion and Keldeo readied themselves in front of Guzzlord. Guzzlord let out another scream and rushed at them with a Giga Impact, but the four of them dodged as Virizion rushed over and then used Sacred Sword to push it back.

Keldeo rushed over at Guzzlord as it rushed at him with a Dragon Rush, but Keldeo jumped to the side to avoid the attack as he then used Secret Sword, where on impact, it let out a small explosion that sent Guzzlord sliding. Terrakion charged at Guzzlord as the latter used another Dragon Rush, both of them slamming into each other and knocking each other back… and then Guzzlord fell on its back in defeat. "Quick! Throw it!" Cobalion ordered as Ruby came running over and throwing the Beast Ball over at Guzzlord, where it went inside the ball and caught it after it clicked.

End BGM

"Good work." Cobalion complimented.

"Well… you guys did all the hard work." Ruby pointed out.

"Heh, she has a point!" Terrakion chuckled.

"I'm gonna be… highly disturbed for a while." Blake said.

"Agreed…" Weiss shuddered.


Stakataka - Sun, Neptune, Tai - Hammerlocke

"Here we are. It should be about… here." Tai said, looking up and seeing the Stakataka in front of them.

"That's it?" Sun raised an eyebrow.

"You mean to tell me it's an actual wall." Neptune said as the Stakataka moved around, not paying them much mind.

"Alright, let's get this going." Tai said. "Hey! Brick… wall… thing! You're coming with us." Tai said as the Stakataka turned to look at them. He immediately got in a fighting stance as Sun and Neptune called out their Pokemon.

"Staka…" Stakataka cried as it got ready to fight the three.

UB-Assembly - Stakataka

Tai looked at his Gray Wisp and with a nod, it went inside of him as Sun had Leo slam into the Stakataka with a Flame Wheel attack as Neptune had Tank unleash Hydro Pump on it. Tai would then run over and deliver a solid hard punch on Stakataka, causing it slide a few feet. Stakataka would eventually respond with a Take Down, but they would notice it running extremely slow. The three looked at each other and with a shrug, Wartortle rushed at the Stakataka and hit it with an Aqua Tail to cancel out the Take Down.

Stakataka responded by firing a Rock Blast at the Monferno, but it jumped out of the way and then used Mach Punch to knock it back as Tai would deliver an uppercut to knock the Stakataka on its side, with its legs scrambling around to try and pick itself back up. It would eventually do so and then it charged at them with another Take Down, but would get blasted by a Hydro Pump and Mach Punch to push it back and then Tai would run over and deal the final blow as the Stakataka would fall limp in defeat, letting out a groan where Tai would then pull out a Beast Ball and throw it at it, where it went inside the ball and clicked after three shakes.

"I can't even believe it." Tai shook his head. "I've gotten to that point in life where I punched a wall."

"Happens to the best of us." Sun said, patting him on the shoulder.

"Yeah… it happens to all of us."

"What? No it doesn't!"

"You keep telling yourself that." Sun said as he walked away with Neptune, both of them fist bumping.

"What are you-… ooooh, get back here!"


Blacephalon - Umber, Nyx - Ballonlea

"I have to say, you were rather quick on joining us." Nyx said.

"You kiddin'? Blacephalon is like the only Ultra Beast I didn't get. The one that got away too…" He said.

"Well, now's your chance to redeem yourself." Nyx giggled as they noticed an odd looking creature dancing around and making some Chinchou and Phantumps extremely uncomfortable. "…That's it?"

"Oooh, that's the one alright." Umber said. "Hey! Mr. Explodey Head!" He called out as the Blacephalon turned and supposedly looked at him. "I believe you and I need to have a proper bout." He said.

"Blacephaaaa!" Blacephalon responded by throwing its head directly at Umber, but he would pull out his Mirror Staff and reflected it back at him.

"Quit clowning around and fight!" Umber told it.

Mr. Explodey Head - Blacephalon

"Let's go!" He said, calling out his Alolan Marowak.

"Maro!" The Marowak cried.

"Shadow Bone!"

Marowak rushed at Blacephalon as it used Shadow Ball at the Marowak, but it used its bone to deflect it as it then used Shadow Bone on the Blacephalon. It let out a cry and then unleashed Mind Blown, hitting the Marowak head on. The Marowak shook it off and stood strong as Blacephalon grew a new head as it used Shadow Ball again, but it deflected it again and then used Flare Blitz.

"Want me to help out?" Nyx asked.

"Sure!"

Nyx nodded, calling out her Moltres. "Ancient Power!" She ordered as the Moltres unleashed Ancient Power, striking the Blacephalon and making it stumble a little, giving the Marowak an opportunity and used Bone Rush to strike the Blacephalon as it stumbled to the ground.

"Now I got you!" Umber said, pulling out the Beast Ball and throwing it at the Blacephalon, where it went inside the Beast Ball as it shook three times and clicked. "And it's good!" He cheered.

End BGM

"Nice one!" Nyx said, high fiving Umber as he walked over and picked it up.

"Now I got 'em all!" Umber grinned and then knelt down and high fived the Marowak.

"Marowak!" It said proudly.


Later, at the Wild Area with everyone regrouping underneath the bridge

"Thank you everyone." Cobalion said. "I must say, I wasn't expecting the Xurkitree and Celesteela to be so willing to go peacefully without a ball." He mused, looking at Nora and Rosalina with the two Ultra Beasts with them. "Still, we thank you."

"And now, we are going to head back to the Crown Tundra to find Solgaleo and Lunala. We will let you know if we find them." Virizion said and with a nod from everyone, they headed off to the Tundra.

"Man, these Ultra Beasts are gonna provide valuable data! I wonder what secrets they'll hold!" Sonia grinned, looking at the Beast Balls in her hands and then looked at Jaune. "I must ask though... why is your hair sticking up?"

"Don't-" He spazzed a bit. "-Ask." He said, while Nora whistled casually.

"Ooookay..." Sonia sweatdropped.

"Phew… I don't know about you… but after a day like this, I'm exhausted…" Weiss said.

"Tell me about it." Blake nodded.

"Well, we can always head back to Remn-" Suddenly Gloria's Rotom Phone went off as she pulled it out. "Hello?"

"Hey Gloria, it's Leon."

"Oh hey Lee, what's up?"

"Listen, I wanna tell you something but it has to be in person. Meet me at Wyndon Stadium and I'll give you the details, alright?"

"Oh, sure… of course!" Gloria nodded and then hung up, looking at them all. "So uh…"

"Oh, what's one more pit stop?" Weiss shrugged.

"Lead the way." Blake smiled.

"Alrighty, let's go!" Gloria said as she took off running with everyone following her while Youmu and Umber stayed behind.

"So… you want to go see what that's about?" Umber asked.

"Oh, sure, why not?" Youmu shrugged as the two went ahead to catch up.

"By the way, when we get there, I suggest you change into something else, Weiss." Ruby said.

"Huh? Why? I'm perfectly fine as-" She looked down at her clothes, looking at the tears and the blood. "Oh… right. You got anything in mind?"

"Well, there's a clothing shop in Wyndon, so we can get you something nice there!" Ruby said and turned to Blake and Yang. "Heck, why stop with Weiss?"

"Us too?" Yang blinked.

"Hmm… I wouldn't mind that." Blake said.

"I think my fabulous ice queen will look great in Galarian clothing." Neptune said, winking at Weiss.

"Yeah, and I think Blake will look cute in whatever she picks out!"

Both Blake and Weiss blushed as they looked at each other. "I guess it wouldn't hurt…" Blake said.

"Yeah, might as well go ahead and try on something new." Weiss said as they headed off for Wyndon, all of them unaware that Winter looked at the Beast Ball that she was holding in her hand.

"Decided to keep it?" Willow asked.

"Yeah." Winter nodded. "I don't know why, but I think she'd make a great companion." She said, putting the Beast Ball away as they hopped into a train where it would take off for Wyndon.


I didn't really plan on doing the Ultra Beasts and they would just go to the Galarian Star Tournament, but then I wondered "There has to be an actual reason why the Swords of Justice are there... oh! The Ultra Beasts!" and it just snowballed from there.
