Original Alola#296Updated Alola#396

They’ve been dubbed Ultra Beasts. Some of them stand unmoving, like trees, with their arms and legs stuck into the ground.
Ultra Moon
Although it’s alien to this world and a danger here, it’s apparently a common organism in the world where it normally lives.
Ultra Sun
It appeared from the Ultra Wormhole. It raided a power plant, so people think it energizes itself with electricity.
Moon
One of the mysterious life-forms known as Ultra Beasts. Astonishing electric shocks emanate from its entire body, according to witnesses.
