Ultra Steel

A few days before the day of the Battle of the Golden Spheres...

Um... I was thinking of practicing some moves with Steelix for a bit, and I was wondering...

Whoa! Ah, you seem excited...but how do I...

Hey! Whatcha doin'?

Oh! Hi there, Hilda!

I was thinking of doing some extra training with my Pokémon.

But apparently, Celesteela is what they call an Ultra Beast? So I'm not quite sure what to do...

I see... So you're not sure how you should battle together, huh.

Hold on a sec. I've got an idea!

H-Hilda? Where are you going?

If you wanna learn more about Ultra Beasts, maybe we can get some advice from Lusamine!

It's a pleasure to meet you, Jasmine. If there's anything I can do, I'd be more than happy to help!

I hope you don't mind that I tagged along. I'm always curious to hear more about rare Pokémon!

O-of course! I'd love to have your input, too!

Oh...that pink shine really is something. No wonder they say it's the loveliest sight in the whole world.

Er...actually, the Pokémon we'd like to talk about is that one over there!

Oh, sorry! I was completely captivated by your Diancie!

Tell me, do you think that your Celesteela is different from other Pokémon?

Um... Well...

It is true that Ultra Beasts have tremendous power, which can be dangerous. But really, that can be said for most other Pokémon, too.

There's no need to be scared.

It's good to adapt to what's best for your partner Pokémon, but you shouldn't take it too far.

You don't have to focus solely on training Celesteela to get better at its strengths.

It's also important to teach Celesteela the style of battle that you're good at, too.

... ... ...

So really, the answer is quite simple.

It doesn't really matter if that Pokémon is an Ultra Beast or not...because it's your precious partner Pokémon!

You know what? You're so right!

Celesteela is Celesteela. I should be up-front and direct about what I'd like to do, too!

It looks like you've figured it out!

Yes! Thank you for the advice, everyone!

No prob! Actually...how about we test that out in battle right now?

Sure! Let's do it!

Yay! We did it, Celesteela!

Aw, we lost!

Oof... I may have created a beast!

*chuckle* Looks like your advice might've made your rival even stronger!

Yeah, seems so! But I'm still grateful for your help!

Battles are more fun when your opponent is strong and worry-free anyway!

Haha! Yeah, I think so, too!

I hope you and Celesteela can continue to foster your friendship together.

Next time we see each other, I'd love to see just how strong your bond has become!

Yes! Thank you so much for all the advice!

Oh, and Celesteela! Thanks for battling with me!

It looks like you've got a few scuffs... How about I give you a good polishing?

After that, we can all get back to training for the event!
