Opening animation
Synopsis
The opening begins with a low camera view of Ash and Pikachu running along the beach whose foot prints are quickly washed away as a wave rolls in. The opening then cuts to scenes of the clouds fastly rolling over the island and of two Passimian running through a lush jungle with a Pikipek nearby. Finally, the sun rises over the ocean and the series logo appears.
Poipole is shown in a world of darkness until it notices a beam of light. The next shot shows Poipole racing through an Ultra Wormhole which eventually leads it to Alola. Poipole is then seen exploring multiple lights in its new world, such as a traffic light and a lantern, until it collapses on the roof of the Pokémon School, where it looks up to see Ash and Kiawe having a battle. It becomes engrossed in the light from Pikachu's Thunderbolt. It rushes towards Ash and Pikachu in excitement, who turn around and greet it with a smile.
Ash, his classmates, and their Pokémon are shown excitedly heading towards the Pokémon School, but then turn around to the camera and cheer. Ash and his classmates are then seen heading up an elevator and take off on their Ride Pokémon as the Ultra Guardians. They find themselves in front of several Ultra Beasts, who menacingly look down on them. Despite the threat, the Ultra Guardians are full of confidence as their Pokémon all cheer. The next scene is a series of colored sketches of Ash, his classmates, Team Rocket, Gladion, and their respective Pokémon. Finally, Ash and his classmates are seen at the Pokémon School, where they watch the sunset, as Toucannon and its flock fly by.
