Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon - Ula'ula Meadow and Route 17

Ula'ula Meadow, and Route 17 are up next, as things start to turn a little darker on your path to Team Skull's Po Town.

Here on this page we'll explain all you need to know about the story and main events as they unfold here, and as with all pages of our walkthrough we'll highlight any and all trainers, items and wild Pokémon available to catch as well.

For more general guides and other walkthrough pages like this meanwhile, head back to our main Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon walkthrough and guide hub.

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Ula'ula Meadow

Ula'ula Meadow is similar enough to the other Meadow you've already encountered. Lots of long flowery grass, a few trainers and some floral items, as well as the red form of Oricorio (called the Baile Style).

Explore the area, and hang left at the very top to find a patch of grass and an item tucked away, or take the path at the top right to the Lake of the Sunne or Moone, depending on your version. There's nothing there but TM03 Psyshock, but it's worth an explore - and one day you'll come back!

Note that the Totem Sticker in the little pond, which it seems like you need to go get in person, is actually only reachable from the nearby platform. Stand and face the sticker and press A to fish it out with your fishing rod!

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Route 17

Route 17 looks bigger than it is, and is the final route before your big showdown in Po Town.

The Police Station is out of use, and there's no Pokémon Center, but the challenge here isn't too significant so don't worry. Head up the hill on the right of the route and back down it on the left side to collect some items - repeat it taking a different route down to make sure you get all of them, like TM80 Rock Slide.

Other than that, there are a few Skull Grunts to tackle, and some interesting wild Pokémon, like Bisharp and Goomy, which you can pick up here too.

Next up: Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon - Po Town, Team Skull, Buginium Z, Ula'ula Grand Trial, Darkinium Z

Finish exploring and in the north-west corner you'll find a pair of Skull Grunts who take you on in a double battle, and the entrance to the Team Skull-controlled Po Town just behind them.
