Back in Alola
"Alright class, the Aether plane came back yesterday, so we will have Lillie back now." Professor Kukui said.
"What about Ark, will he be returning?" Kiawe asked, missing his sparring partner.
"They did not say, only that they were going there to grab them and bring them home." Professor Kukui admitted.
"I hear someone coming!" Lana said excitedly, looking at the doorway into the classroom.
"Alola everyone." Lillie said, as Snowy toddled in towards the other Pokemon.
"Alola Lillie." Mallow said, welcoming her back.
"So is Ark on his way here too?" Sophocles asked.
"Ashton is staying in Kanto." Lillie said. "That's his actual name."
"What, but he has to come back!" Mallow argued.
"Mallow!" Professor Kukui scolded. "Ashton chose to stay in Kanto with his family, which is your goal as Ultra Guardians, to help Ultra Beasts to return home."
"But Ark isn't an Ultra Beast!" Mallow argued. "And his home is here! In Alola! With us!"
"Mallow, I understand you're upset, we all are. But you can't act so selfishly about this." Professor Kukui said.
"It wasn't easy for Ark, and he wasn't sure at the time. But he knew he needed to be in Kanto for his family there for the time being." Lillie said.
"But this does bring us to today's topic. While we were in Kanto, Lusamine was working on something, and her team has been finishing it while she was in Kanto." Professor Kukui said, pressing a button under his desk. "Ultra Guardian's welcome to your base."
A panel behind Kukui's desk opened up revealing a platform on an elevator shaft.
"Kids, you'll learn all about this down there." Professor Kukui said.
The kids and their partner Pokemon stood on the elevator, looking at Professor Kukui.
"Have fun, I'll be down there shortly." Professor Kukui said, pressing the button again.
Below the Pokemon School
"Welcome Ultra Guardians to your base of operations." Wicke said, walking around a station.
"This is amazing, how far under the school are we?" Sophocles asked, rushing over to some of the computers.
"It's just the repurposed basement in actuality." Wicke admitted. "But this will serve great importance for you, as the five of you will be Alola's first defense against Ultra Beast attacks."
"This seems like a whole lot for not much purpose, we won't be fighting Ultra Beasts down here." Kiawe pointed out.
"No, but every part of this room holds a purpose. The center console displays a full view of the islands surrounding Alola, allowing us to pinpoint and show you just where the Ultra Beast is located. Those pods over there will contain your suits for when you go into battle. Not only will they serve as a sign to show you are a team, but they have a polymer strength high enough that even a charging Rhydon wouldn't hurt you." Wicke added.
"Impressive." Kiawe said, looking at the pods. "So which ones mine?"
"Kiawe, you will be the field leader and Ultra Guardian Red. Lillie you will be Ultra Guardian Pink. Sophocles you are Ultra Guardian Yellow. Lana is Ultra Guardian Blue, and Mallow will be Ultra Guardian Green." Lusamine said as a monitor powered on. "We will also be able to communicate to you through here all the way from the Aether Foundation. Clefable will stay here to keep the lab tidy and hand out supplies."
"What kind of supplies will we need?" Lillie asked, hugging Clefable.
"We will provide you with a wide range of berries and other healing items, along with an Aether Foundation specially made Beast Balls." Wicke said, bringing out a tray of items.
"These Beast Balls are designed similarly to your own Pokeballs, but rather than capturing regular Pokemon, these are used to catch and contain Ultra Beasts." Lusamine explained.
"If they're like Pokeballs, does that mean that we are calling them Pokemon?" Mallow asked curiously.
"Yes, Ultra Beast 2, Nihilego is the first of many Ultra Beasts that we believe could now escape into our world, and for the time being we are considering them to be similar to Pokemon." Lusamine said.
"Now, if you'll follow me, I'll show you one of the best parts." Professor Kukui said, walking down a set of stairs.
The students followed Professor Kukui to another bay like area in the base.
"Woah! A Metang!" Sophocles exclaimed.
"And thats a Dragonair!" Lana said excitedly.
"Flygon." Mallow cheered.
"And an Altaria!" Lillie said in awe.
"Kiawe, we would like you to work with Charizard while on missions, the two of you already have a strong bond in battle, and flight." Professor Kukui explained.
"I wouldn't have it any other way." Kiawe said, looking at his Charizard's Pokeball. "But what about the other two bays?"
"We were hoping for Ark and Gladion to be a part of this, but due to finding his home, and Gladion being in places unknown, it is just the five of you for the time being." Professor Burnett admitted.
"There is actually room for many other ride Pokemon if we ever see the need to add more members to your team, but we don't forsee that happening." Wicke explained.
"But how do we get them out of here, we must be deep underground." Mallow pointed out.
"How about you suit up and find out." Professor Kukui said with a smirk.
"Alright team, let's suit up!" Kiawe exclaimed.
A few minutes later back at the ride Pokemon
"Alright Ultra Guardians are you ready for your maiden voyage?" Lusamine asked, from a large screen.
"Yes Lusamine!" The Ultra Guardians responded, now in uniform.
"Actually how about while in uniform you say Ultroger!" Lusamine said with a smile.
"Mother." Lillie sighed. "Very well Ultroger!"
"Ultroger Lusamine!" The other four called out.
The five Ultra Guardians hopped onto their ride Pokemon as a set of doors opened up above them. One by one the ride the Pokemon shot off from the tunnel, into the air.
"Whoah! Look at the school!" Lana said, looking behind them as the school was already a ways off.
"I've never seen the top of an Exeggutor before!" Mallow said excitedly.
"Alright guys, we'll do a quick lap and head back, just try and keep up!" Kiawe said, as he and Charizard sped ahead.
Authors Notes
Yep, here's the Ultra Guardians finally. I was a HUGE fan of the Power Rangers series and the Super Sentai growing up so I was really excited when they did a parody in Pokemon. We'll be seeing more of them soon enough, trust me.
