Walkthrough:Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon/Part 20

This is the Bulbapedia walkthrough for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.
These pages follow the enhanced versions, not Pokémon Sun and Moon. The guide for those games can be found here.


Po Town

Po Town

Team Skull has barricaded the whole town, and a pair of Grunts guarding the main gate would rather taunt you than move their blockade to fight. A hole in a hedge nearby gets you past them and back to the same two Grunts from the other side, stubborn enough now to battle. Team Skull also runs what used to be the town's Pokémon Center: the Poké Mart and Café sit unstaffed, but a Grunt behind the counter will heal your Pokémon for a $10 fee. Working your way north through the yards and hedges toward the Shady House means fighting through several more Grunts along the way.

Shady House

The Shady House

The Shady House is Team Skull's headquarters, a dilapidated mansion at the north end of Po Town that Guzma also uses as a hideout. Explore the house and defeat the Grunts while collecting the items spread around.

On the second floor, a Grunt blocks the way to the balcony outside and asks you three passwords you find around the house. Answering correctly finally lets you go out. Follow the path to the right and go back inside to finally reach Guzma, holed up in a makeshift throne room on the second floor with the stolen Yungoos that a Grunt is keeping just out of reach.

VS Guzma

Answering correctly finally gets you to Guzma, holed up in a makeshift throne room on the second floor with the stolen Yungoos that a Grunt is keeping just out of reach. Guzma warns you to mind your own business before drawing you into battle. Guzma prefers Bug Pokémon, so Fire-, Flying-, and Rock-type moves are the most effective against his team.

Defeated again, Guzma has the Grunt hand the Yungoos back, and it scampers off to find the child it belongs to. He grumbles that he'll beat you one day before leaving the room himself; check the treasure chest by his chair for the Buginium Z he leaves behind.

Outside the Shady House, the same man who let you into Po Town is waiting. He turns out to be Nanu, a police officer, and thanks you for getting the Yungoos back before healing your team. Acerola arrives moments later, greeting Nanu as her uncle and thanking you as well before heading off with the Yungoos toward the Aether House.

Route 15

Aether House

Aether House

Enter the Aether House to find Acerola already back with the Yungoos. The reunion is short-lived: Hau reveals that Team Skull's admin, Plumeria, has kidnapped Lillie and Nebby, and that stealing the Yungoos was only ever meant to draw you away from the house. Gladion overhears the news and, shaken that Lillie had been hiding a Pokémon like Nebby from everyone, demands that you and Hau come with him.

VS Gladion

Gladion's Pokémon are vulnerable to Psychic-, Rock-, and Fighting-type attacks.

Before the three of you can set off, Nanu stops you at the door. He reveals that he is Ula'ula Island's kahuna, having taken up the role Team Skull's rise once cost the previous holder, and challenges you to your grand trial back in Malie City.

Malie City

Ula'ula Grand Trial

Nanu specializes in Dark Pokémon, so Bug, Fighting, and Fairy moves are generally effective against his team. His Sableye is a Ghost/Dark Pokémon, vulnerable only to Fairy attacks, while his Krokorok's Ground typing leaves it open to Water, Grass, and Ice-type moves as well; watch out for its Intimidate Ability against physical attackers. His Persian shares that caution, since its Fur Coat Ability doubles its physical Defense.

Nanu heals your team after the battle and hands over the Darkinium Z, teaching you the pose for Black Hole Eclipse. Beating him earns your Trainer Passport the Ula'ula Trial Completion stamp, so any Pokémon up to level 65 will obey you, even ones you've received in trades. Nanu asks Gladion what he still owes Team Skull before taking his leave. Gladion admits that you all need to go back to Aether Paradise to rescue Lillie and Nebby, and the three of you set off together.
