On Smogon's Movedex: Generation VII Generation VIII Generation IX

Guardian of Alola (Japanese: ガーディアン・デ・アローラ Guardian de Alola) is a damage-dealing Fairy-type Z-Move introduced in Generation VII. It is the exclusive Z-Move of the guardian deities and an upgraded version of their signature move, Nature's Madness.

Effect

Guardian of Alola deals damage equal to 75% of the target's remaining HP.

Like all Z-Moves, Guardian of Alola deals one-quarter of its normal damage (18.75% in this case) if the target is protected by a protection move.

Description

Learnset

Any guardian deity Pokémon can use Guardian of Alola if it knows Nature's Madness, holds Tapunium Z, and if its Trainer wears a Z-Ring^SM or Z-Power Ring^USUM.

User	First Used In		Notes
	Tapu Koko strikes a series of synchronized poses with its Trainer to build Z-Power. It then becomes surrounded in an orb of yellow energy, summoning a giant yellow headless humanoid entity from the ground and closes its shell to merge on top of the entity as its head. The entity then punches the opponent with one of its fists.
