Just then, two streaks of light flew over. They were none other than Tapu Lele and Tapu Bulu.
The Guardian Deity family had gathered.
The Guardian Deities channeled Nature Power, transforming the world around them. The four domains of electricity, grass, mist, and psychic power emerged simultaneously.

Then he took out his Poké Balls and released all of his Pokémon.
Led by Abomasnow, the "Icebound Legion" gathered the strength of six Elite Four-level Pokémon. Combined with their team battle system, they were enough to rival a top-tier Legendary-level Pokémon.

As it pondered, waves of electricity carrying "information" were transmitted from Tapu Koko.
The moment the Three Cloud Gods appeared, Roy, who was also on Poni Island, had already sensed that something was wrong.
"What happened...?"
Roy frowned in thought.
Information within the Spirit Realm was sealed off, and there was no communication
