Heahea City Revisited
Go to the Dimensional Research Lab in Heahea City. Lillie is standing outside the building. A short cutscene will happen when you come close, showing Lillie trying to teach Nebby the move Splash. Follow Lillie into the Lab, but grab the Zygarde Cell in the courtyard before entering.
Once upstairs, Kukui will introduce you to Professor Burnet, director of the Lab and his wife. Burnet will tell you about the appearance of the Ultra Wormhole over Alola, and says that she thinks it leads to another dimension.
Burnet explains that Pokémon that come from the Ultra Wormhole are called Ultra Beasts, and the guardian deities of Alola once fought against them.
Professor Kukui then tells you that it’s time to battle Olivia, the Island Kahuna of Akala Island. To do this, you need to pass through Diglett’s Tunnel.
When you exit the Lab, you notice something strange in the sky…
Head on to the tunnel, which is on the opposite side of the street some distance away from the Lab.

You will run into Island Kahuna Olivia a few steps inside the tunnel as she is talking with a couple of Aether Foundation employees. She invites you to visit her shop in Konikoni City at the other end of the tunnel.
The path branches out a few more steps into the tunnel. Take the left fork first. A trainer is standing near the fork, but you won’t be able to challenge him until you have defeated all the other trainers in the tunnel.
Go on along the path until you reach the rocks beside the stairs. Break through the rocks using Tauros, then continue on up to the end, where you can get a Fire Stone.
Back up along the path, then go up the stairs. You will meet the Aether Foundation employees that Olivia was talking with earlier. They explain that Team Skull is agitating the Diglett living in the tunnel. Run along the path, grabbing the Hyper Potion on the ground beside the wheelbarrow. Inspect the wooden crate just up ahead to get a Nugget.
You may get challenged by a Trainer carrying a Machop at the top of the path. Beat him to get 880 pokédollars .
You will encounter a pair of Team Skull Grunts down the path. The grunts are about to gang up on you, when Hau shows up for the save! (P$ 1408) Hau will give you a Max Ether after winning against Team Skull.
Go towards the eastern corner of the tunnel to get the Dusk Ball.
Exit Diglett’s Tunnel to Route 9.

The short Route 9 on Akala Island connects Memorial Hill and Konikoni City to Diglett’s Tunnel and the rest of Akala Island. It may be the shortest, but you can still find items that you can add to your stocks. Go to the area where the old man is fishing (Hint: He’s a trainer), and check both ends to get a Net Ball and an X Accuracy.
Konikoni City
Items
| Name | Location |
| Zygarde Core | Second floor of Kahuna Olivia’s shop |
| Zygarde Cell | Edge of Konikoni City, near the woman with three Pikachu (night only) |
| Max Repel | From the Probopass inside Olivia’s shop |
| Heart Scales | Dining in Captain Mallow’s restaurant will get you two Heart Scales |
Stroll down Konikoni City’s main street, which is lined with shops offering different items. Head to the end of the street and enter the house with a hammer sign hanging outside. This is Kahuna Olivia’s shop.
Once you’re inside, Olivia’s Probopass will hand you a letter, along with a Max Potion and instructions to meet her at the Ruins of Life. Before going, however, climb up the stairs and enter the room on the second floor. A Zygarde Core can be found in the corner.
Go into the shop next door, which is Trial Captain Mallow’s restaurant. Dining in the restaurant will get you two Heart Scales every time.
Cross over to the Pokémon Center on the other side of the road. Talk to the little girl inside, who wants to trade her Poliwhirl for a Zubat. Meanwhile, an Aether Foundation employee will give you 5,000 pokédollars if you could give him information about Passimian or Oranguru.
Exit the Pokémon Center, then head towards the fenced area overlooking the ocean. Talk to the woman standing here with three Pikachu. She will give you a special Z-Crystal that’s just for Pikachu. She will even offer to teach your Pikachu (if you have one) a special move called Volt Tackle. There’s also a Zygarde cell here that appears at night.
When you’re all done, leave Konikoni City and head south to Memorial Hill.
