Name Text
Allister Ghost Pokémon are the main attraction today...
Allister The city is full of ghost Pokémon... They're so much fun to look at!
Iris We can do more than just look, y'know!
We've gotta battle Trainers so we can get a bunch of candy from them!


  • The Supernatural World
Name Text
(Dark forest full of dead trees; A Beauty and her Piplup are looking around)
Beauty ... ... ...
(Something approaches the Beauty from behind; she notices and turns around; fade to black; the Beauty screams)
(Fade to Helena in the town, which is decorated for the holiday)
Hex Maniac And that's the story.
Youngster That's boring. Isn't that all caused by ghost Pokémon?
Let's go get candy with everyone instead.
(The Preschooler beside him agrees; she and the Youngster run away to chat with a Camper and a Lass)
Hex Maniac Hmm... Kids these days are too pragmatic.
(Helena turns around and looks at all the other people and their Pokémon having fun)
Hex Maniac I wish I could have fun like everyone else.
(Helena's Haunter comes out of its Poké Ball; Helena looks back at the city once more before walking away)


  • Star of the Night
Name Text
(Town, decorated for the holiday; Iris and Allister appear and pose, wearing their fall outfits)
Iris Hehehe! We've collected a lot of candy, haven't we.
Allister I-I wonder if we can eat it all...
Iris We'll be fine! Everyone looks hungry from all the battling.
(Allister's Gourgeist and Iris's Haxorus cheer)
Iris Once I've finished eating this, I'll battle you—and maybe get some of your candy, too!
Allister Wha—?! Oh no...
(Gourgeist cries out)
Iris Gourgeist looks ready for it!
By the way, I noticed you're wearing a different mask than usual!
And you look just like Gourgeist. That's so cute!
Allister W-well... Today, ghost Pokémon are getting a chance to be in the spotlight...
And I also wanted to get closer with Gourgeist, so I put a lot of effort into this costume!
Did you know Gourgeist can be different sizes?
And their strengths can differ, too.
I want my Gourgeist to make use of what he's good at...
And I want us to be a sync pair that can support each other...
Iris Yeah! I think that's really great!
But hey, what is Gourgeist good at, anyway? It seems like your Gourgeist is very big...
Allister Small Gourgeist pretend to be children. That's how they fool you and get your guard down.
Large Gourgeist put on the guise of adults, and that's how they lead kids away...
And a supersized Gourgeist like my partner...
(Gourgeist cries out)
Allister can FORCEFULLY drag you away!
(Iris shrieks)
Iris That's scary, Allister!
(Allister giggles)
??? Hey...did you hear that rumor?
(Allister and Iris turn around to see a Collector and Beauty talking)
Collector There's a real monster out there—something that's not someone in a costume!
Apparently, it laughs in a creepy way, then sprays poison on Pokémon.
Beauty The Pokémon that's sprayed will get weak and can't recover for a while, right?
Iris A real monster...?
(Allister thinks for a moment, then holds his hands up in a spooky pose)
Allister Maybe it came from another world and was attracted to the city since it's filled with ghost Pokémon.
(Iris screams)
Iris You're being scary, Allister!
(Allister laughs)
??? I love it! It reeks of the supernatural!
Allister Wha—?!
(Helena appears behind Allister and giggles)
Iris Who are you?
Allister A-are you a ghost from the other side that got lost in this world?
Hex Maniac I know everything about the strange, mysterious things that happen in this world!
I'll seek out and uncover what this monster truly is!
(Helena runs off)
Allister Oh! W-wait!
Iris Well, that was kinda weird!
Why don't we follow her? I'm curious about the monster, too!
Allister S-sure... I guess we shouldn't leave her alone.
Iris Let's do it!
It's a bit scary, but I'm strong enough!
If we run into something, I'll protect you two!
(Allister, Iris, and their Pokémon run after Helena)


  • Seeking Mysteries
Name Text
(Town; Helena, Allister, and Iris are talking to an Ace Trainer)
Ace Trainer No! For your own safety, it's best you don't get involved with the monster!
(The Ace Trainer walks away)
Iris No one will talk to us about the monster...
Hex Maniac Perhaps someone's trying to find it and they're forcing these people to keep quiet so it can remain a secret...
There must be a secret organization behind this that's trying to cover up supernatural events!
Allister A secret organization?
Iris That's exciting!
(Gardenia appears and notices Allister's Gourgeist)
Gardenia Oh! Is that a Grass-type Pokémon?
I want to get a closer look!
(Gardenia approaches Gourgiest, and it turns around)
Gardenia Actually, it's quite scary.
Iris Huh? Is that you, Gardenia?
(Gardenia joins the group)
Hex Maniac Do you know anything about the mysterious monster people have been talking about around the city?
Gardenia I actually just saw it with my own eyes!
It ran into the forest...
Allister R-really?
Iris That's great! We might be able to find the monster!
Hex Maniac In the forest...
Gardenia Are you thinking of going there to investigate?
Iris Of course! Will you come with us, Gardenia?
(Gourgeist cries out, scaring Gardenia)
Gardenia Um... Well, I'm a Gym Leader and have other things to do, so...
I'll leave the monster to you!
(Gardenia leaves)
Iris Hmm? She's acting strange.
Hex Maniac No time to lose! To the forest, everyone!
(Dark forest full of dead trees; Helena, Allister, and Iris are looking around)
Iris I wonder if it's around here somewhere...
(Something approaches Iris from behind; fade to black)
Hex Maniac Watch out, Iris!
(Helena sends out her Haunter, which scares away a wild Poipole; Iris and Allister turn around)
Iris Huh?!
Allister Th-the monster! It tried to attack you!
Iris Thanks to you and Haunter, I'm fine! Thank you, both!
Hex Maniac They've got some nerve stealing MY ghost story!
Iris That's it—I'm really gonna cut loose...
Wait, is this the monster?
(The wild Poipole turns around and cheers)


  • Mystery Monster Unmasked
Name Text
(Iris, Allister, and Helena gather around Poipole)
Iris Is it a...Pokémon?
Allister I'm not sure. It doesn't look like a ghost Pokémon...
Hex Maniac Maybe it's an alien.
??? It's called Poipole.
(Lusamine appears)
Lusamine It's a Pokémon from a different world. An Ultra Beast, no less.
Allister Lusamine!
Iris From a different world? Ultra Beast?
Lusamine I'll take care of it.
If possible, I'd like to help it get back to its home.
Allister So were you the one telling people in the city not to talk about it?
Lusamine Yes. I wanted to take care of it quietly.
Iris Oh... So you're taking it away?
(Poipole cheers, Haxorus cheers, and Gourgeist cheers)
Iris Please! Let us play with Poipole a bit more.
Lusamine This Pokémon is dangerous. Even if it doesn't mean you any harm, we can't let it roam around freely.
Iris But I can tell how it's feeling! I bet it was just afraid because it came to a place it doesn't know well!
I was the same when I moved to the large cities of Unova from the Village of the Dragons!
I was really nervous since there were so many tall buildings—and a lot of people.
But now I love Unova!
So I want Poipole to fall in love with Pasio before going home!
Allister I-if you don't mind, I'd like that, too.
I think it's normal for creatures from different worlds to find each other scary, but...
I think it's sad to push someone away just because of that.
Lusamine I know... However, I don't think we'll be able to reach that level of understanding...
(Lusamine thinks about her Pheromosa and Necrozma)
Lusamine Well...perhaps I shouldn't dismiss the idea entirely before trying.
Why don't we, then? I'll allow you to watch over Poipole for a while.
Help it make some nice memories, OK?
Iris Will do! Thanks a bunch, Lusamine!
(Poipole, Haxorus, and Gourgeist cheer)


  • Poipole's Chosen Path
Name Text
(Town at night; Acerola, Morty, and Hilbert, are preparing to battle Iris, while Caitlin watches; all of them are wearing their fall outfits)
Iris OK! Let's go, Poipole.
(Poipole cheers; Helena watches the group from afar)
Hex Maniac So, it was a Pokémon after all.
I guess I've done my part... I should probably go home.
(Helena sends out her Haunter, and the pair start to leave)
??? Oh! Um...
(Allister appears)
Allister Since you're already here... D-do you want to join our team?
Hex Maniac I'm not sure... I don't really like it when things are too lively...
Allister M-me neither, actually...
But today is a special day for ghost Pokémon.
And since you like ghost Pokémon, I thought it would be nice...
Hex Maniac He's inviting us...
(Haunter laughs)
Hex Maniac OK, we'll join you... Thank you, Allister.
(Helena and Allister join Iris's team)
Iris Woohoo! They're gonna join us!
Hex Maniac Join you indeed. I'll show you everything about the supernatural, Iris!
Iris Great! Let's go get more candy together!
Acerola Yay! It's gotten pretty lively!
Morty You won't be getting our candy that easily!
Iris Now, Poipole! Let's give it all we've got and win this battle!
(Iris, Helena, and Allister battle Acerola, Hilbert, and Morty)
Iris I don't usually battle with Pokémon that use poison...
But I think we work perfectly together!
I wanna get to know you better, so...
Let's win this battle together! OK?
(Poipole cries out and evolves into Naganadel)
Iris Poipole...evolved?!
Hilbert Wow! So cool!
Caitlin Your kindness and strength must've drawn out its power.
??? That's amazing, Iris!
(Lusamine appears)
Lusamine That is Naganadel. It's a dragon Pokémon that excels in using Poison-type moves.
Iris So you were...a dragon Pokémon!
Lusamine Iris is an expert at dealing with dragon Pokémon, and as they were battling...
their feelings became one, and it evolved.
Iris Is that true, Naganadel?
Lusamine May I make a suggestion?
As the girl who knows the hearts of dragons, you should be the one to look after Naganadel...
Since it managed to evolve, I think it also wants to stay with you.
Iris Yes, of course! Great to have you, Naganadel!
Hex Maniac Although there was no unraveling the mysteries of the supernatural, I was able to witness such a heartwarming moment...
I'm glad I was brave enough to join you.
Allister M-me too!
I enjoyed spending time with...everyone.
