You'll actually be the monarch yourself. That's how the Galar League works, the Champion is immediately crowned king/queen and will remain as such until they're beaten.

Pretty ballsy of Nintendo to make you brutally murder the reigning champion for the title.

In Ultra Sun/Moon some mons only appear when it rains. For example in that Lush Jungle. Is weather entirely random? Or how do I engineer rain to happen?
Bulbapedia has a list: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Rain#On_the_field
Many places like the Lush Jungle only have rain between 5pm and 6pm.

Such a pity it took them wasting Buzzwole, Xurkitree, Blacephalon, Stakataka, Poipole, Naganadel, Solgaleo, Lunala, and Necrozma to finally get the Ultra Beasts right

I forgive Celesteela because they actually treat its launch like a serious threat to the surrounding area because oh hey, rocket launches are in fact dangerous affairs

Wait, is Bewear punching Pheromosa in the leg a reference to Jotaro's fight with DIO? Normally I wouldn't be so quick to assume, but after seeing G Gundam references earlier, the possibility can't be ruled out.

Real mosquitoes do this so a 7 foot tall one would do that to potential prey.

Although I'm now wondering what on earth they feed on in its home world... Maybe something the size of a Cloverfield monster.

Sun and Moon changed up the formula for the series. Ash enrolled in a Pokemon school and so they focus more on characters and day to day life since they're not travelling around to gyms. It's still a kid's show but it's at least doing something original.

Practice proper gun's safety.
They switched from shounen battle anime (a tried and true genre) to slice of life comedy with minor battle elements (another tried and true anime genre). I wouldn't really say they're doing something original, they're just doing it with cute animals as the centrepoint, which as it turns out works really well.

He shows up in next week's episode. Not entirely sure why it took so long since Team Skull has been around since the start (though they don't show up all that much) and we've already been through the whole Lusamine arc but the anime has typically always played fast and loose with the story of the games.

We've been through the Lusamine and Ultra Necrozma arc, so it looks like he'll be participating in the Alola League, or sabotaging it, since he's furious Kukui has set it up.

We'll have to wait until the episode airs to find out, but it's probably jealously and animosity toward Kukui himself.

We'll find out next week, but it's probably related to those two's history together. The game only references it a little and points out they both failed the island challenge.
