Mount Hokulani

Explore Mount Hokulani in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Find Totem Stickers, items like Level Ball and Rare Candy, and battle trainers Jessica and Thomas.

This is Alola’s second highest mountain; atop its summit lies Hokulani Observatory, where your first Ula’ula Island trial will take place. As you arrive, Kukui will give you a tantalizing hint of what’s in store once you’ve finished your island challenge. You’ll then be left off near the summit’s south-west corner.

Begin going anywhere, head east and enter the nearby Pokémon Center. There’s much to do, so you should rest your Pokémon and fill up your supplies. Of note, the right Poké Mart clerk is selling expensive vitamins that boost stats (or rather, Effort Values). At this point, you shouldn’t need to buy any, but it’s useful to know.

Out on the summit, start heading towards the entrance to the observatory.

Before following him inside the observatory, head east.

As you reach the north-east corner of the summit, check the bottom-right corner of the observatory to find Totem Sticker #059. From this corner, head south behind the car park. Towards the left, squeeze in-between the railings and retrieve the Level Ball behind the red trucks. Afterwards, continue south to the south-east corner.

Standing dangerously close to the summit’s edge is your traveling friend, Samson Oak. Try to warn him about his perilous position and you’ll receive a rare Moon Ball. Evidently, the man knows no fear. Afterwards, make your way west to return to the Pokémon Center. From here, you can head south to descend the mountain.

You’ll pass by a worker who warns you that it’s a long way down, as well as an aged Pokémon trainer who refuses to battle until you’ve defeated all the other trainers. Nearby to the south, there’s a woman stretching up and down along the left side of the road. Note that she can see you passing by her right when she’s stretched down.

Office Worker Jessica

An evolved Cleffa, but still yet to reach its full potential. Like its baby form, it’s weak to Poison and Steel. This one doesn’t have any Fairy-type moves, but it can use the annoying Minimize, so you’ll want to quickly defeat it regardless.

Follow the road as it bends towards the south-east, then stop when you reach the gap in the barriers to the north-east, just before the Mudsdale rider. Go down the short slope between the gap to reach a broad mountain ledge surrounded by tall grass.

Here, make your way south-east, through the tall grass. On the other side, there’s another short slope that you can go down. Past here, there’s a golden ball sitting close to the cliff edge, containing TM72 Volt Switch. This versatile move inflicts damage, then switches the user out. If you’re going to switch out your Pokémon, you may as well cause some damage in the process, right?

Return to the main road and carry on following it south-east. After a while, the barrier below the road will give way. Before the barrier reappears, step off the road and pick up the nearby Fast Ball. Further east, the barrier above the road will stop. Search the rocks next to the end of the barrier for a hidden Rare Candy.

From here, the road will start to bend around towards the south-west. Around here, there’s a hiker walking up and down near the barrier to the west.

Hiker Thomas

The Alolan Geodude has swapped its Ground Type for Electric. It therefore has a double weakness to Ground, and is weak to Water and Fighting. The other thing to note is that it has the Sturdy ability, preventing one-hit KOs.

As you follow the road south-west from the corner, keep an eye out for the barrier above the road. Halfway along this straight part of the road, somebody–perhaps the nearby Trial Captain–has stuck Totem Sticker #060 onto the barrier. If you didn’t fight the hiker, be careful as he’ll stop here along his path.

Further west, there’s a gap in the barrier to the left. Climb down the short slope past the gap to reach another wide mountain ledge. Below, head north through the tall grass towards the northernmost part of the ledge. Here, there’s a Heavy Ball you can pick up. However, there’s a golfer out of sight that
