Learn how to defeat the mysterious jellyfish-like Pokémon on Akala Island in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Moon. Get tips on its weaknesses and the rewards you'll receive.
Alright, so you've made it to Aether Paradise on Akala Island! Things are about to get a little weird. You're going to run into a creature that doesn't look like any Pokémon you've seen before. Don't worry, I'll walk you through it!
- 1You'll face an unidentified creature. It starts the battle surrounded by an aura, just like a Totem Pokémon, which boosts its Defense by two stages.
- 2Remember, this Pokémon is actually a Rock and Poison-type. This means it's super weak to Ground-type moves! If you have any Ground attacks, now's the time to use them.
- 3Water, Psychic, and Steel moves are also good options if Ground isn't available.
- 4Stat-wise, this thing has surprisingly high Special stats, but its regular Defense is really low, so exploit that if you can.
- 5Its main attacks are Venoshock (which gets STAB) and Psywave, which deals damage based on its Level.
- 6Don't stress too much if you're having trouble. If you can't defeat it, it will actually flee after a few turns. So, you won't be stuck in the fight forever!
After that encounter, Wicke will give you **TM29 Psychic**. This is a really powerful Psychic-type move, so make sure to teach it to a suitable Pokémon for some extra coverage!
- Focus on its low Defense if you can't use Ground moves. Physical attackers might struggle if you don't have the right moves.
- Psychic-type moves are super effective against Poison-types, so if you have a strong Psychic move, it'll help balance out the Rock-typing.
- Don't forget that TM29 Psychic is a great TM to hold onto, even if you don't have a Psychic-type Pokémon right now. It's good for coverage on many different Pokémon.
