I head back to the Seafolk Village and speak with Mina there, and she tells me that to start her challenge, i must battle her. I agree and send out Hana who is actually Kagamine Rin, and Mina sends out Mawile. That's not a good matchup for me, so i switch Hikouki in on an Iron Head. Hikouki currently doesn't have a steel-type move, so the best i can do is Fly. I have Roost though, so i eventually win this war of attrition. Next is Granbull, so i send out Ozosnel. Two Heavy Slams take out my foe even after Intimidate. Last is Ribombee, so i go for 99. I tank a Fairy Z-move and strike back with a Flying Z-move for the OHKO. After this victory, Mina gives me a flower petal and tells me i need to fight all the trial captains in Hawaii to get the rest of the petals and beat her trial.
I fly to Melemele, and look around for Ilima. At the graveyard, i run into Hau who tells me he's finally beaten Ilima. He wishes me luck and hands me a PP Max. I'm sure i'll find a use for that. Anyway, Ilima is also in this graveyard, so i challenge him to a fight. He leads with Gumshoos and i lead with 99 who is actually Kagamine Rin. This is my foe's scariest pokemon, so i opt for a Dark-type Z-move right off the bat. I tank a not very effective Crunch in return, but my disguise is blown now. No matter; i tank a Hyper Fang while i two-shot with Night Slash. Next is Komala, so i send out the real 99. I waste all my foe's Sucker Punches by repeatedly Baton Passing out and then immediately switching back in. Once he's out of PP for that, i hit a Fly, and he kills himself with Wood Hammer recoil. Last is Smeargle who is a complete joke. I switch in Hana who straight up OHKOs with Moonblast while taking less than half from Extremespeed. Thus, i've earned the second petal.
Ilima offers to take me to the Lush Jungle for my next fight. There, i spot Mao running off; i give chase and find her and Suiren being harassed by some wild pokemon. The mons were apparently angry that Mao used the wrong ingredients in her cooking, but they head off the moment they see me so it doesn't matter. I challenge Mao to a fight; she leads with trevenant and i lead with 99 who is Kagamine Rin. My Night Slash sadly does less than half, but my foe's Shadow Claw does next to nothing. Turns out Night Slash was a range to 2-shot though; i hit the range and my foe goes down. Shiinotic comes out and i switch in the real 99, who 2-shots with Fly. Last is Tsareena, for whom i switch to Hikouki and fire off a Flying Z-move that misses out on the OHKO due to an attack drop from Trop Kick. No matter; i finish things with a regular Fly. Thus i've earned Mao's petal, and Suiren gives me hers for free.
We travel together to Wela Volcano Park, but when i go to look for Kiawe, all i find is his hiker friend. Kiawe shows up quickly enough though, so i challenge him and he sends out his Arcanine. I lead with Ozosnel, who tanks a Flare Blitz with half his health remaining and then OHKOs with Earthquake despite Intimidate. Talonflame is next, for whom i send out Anne. Anne easily tanks a Brave Bird and OHKOs in return with Smack Down. For his ace Marowak, i opt to send in 99 who is actually Kagamine Rin. The illusion doesn't matter though; i outspeed and OHKO with a Dark Z-move. Before Kiawe gives me his petal though, i have to fight his hiker friend too. So i beat him up and get the petal.
Next stop, Mt. Hokulani. I catch Sophocles in a discussion with Molayne, but he immediately stops that in order to battle me. He leads with Togedemaru and i lead with Ozosnel. Togedemaru desperately tries to protect himself with Spiky Shield, but on turn two, that fails and he dies to earthquake. Second up is Magnezone, who does half with Flash Cannon before dying to Earthquake. Last up is his Electric-type Golem, who hits me with a weak Stone Edge while i bring him down to Sturdy with another quake. I think i'm in crit range now though, so i opt to swap to Hikouki. Night Slash finishes things and earns me the 6th petal.
Up next, i head for the Aether House, but before i can enter, i find Guzma and Hau just hanging out and making small talk. Apparently they've become friends. Guzma even gives me a gift as thanks for stopping Necrozma, and he tells me he's turning his life around. When i head into the house though, i don't find Acerola there. Instead, i find Nanu who just gives me the final petal without a fight. Eh, works for me.
That means i'm finally ready to head back to the Seafolk Village and take on Mina's totem pokemon. This is a fairy trial, so Kagamine Rin will be sitting this one out. Instead, i'm taking Sakasama the Inkay. I head into Mina's house and show her the petals, which she shapes into a pretty flower. However, this flower attracts the totem Ribombee, so i now find myself in battle. I send out Sakasama, who tanks a hit with its Focus Sash and uses Topsy-Turvy to turn Ribombee's double omniboost into a double omninerf. Ribombee then calls on its ally Pelipper, and the rain starts to fall. I opt to switch Hana into a Scald that burns me and a Bug Buzz that does next to nothing. To my surprise, my following Moonblast doesn't OHKO Ribombee, but he just goes for Quiver Dance and Pelipper just goes for Stockpile. Ribombee then hits a Dazzling Gleam that might as well have done absolutely nothing, Pelipper goes for another Stockpile and i kill Ribombee. I'm kinda fearing Pelipper's Spit Up, so i switch to 99 on another Stockpile. It's Scald i need to fear though. It brings me into crit range in 2 hits, while i miss a Charge Beam and do very little with another. I decide the best course of action is to play the stall game, so i switch to Hikouki and alternate between Protect and Roost until he's out of Scalds. At least, that was the original plan. After i get burned, i decide it's probs too risky to Protect and take extra burn damage before Roosting. My foe eventually uses Spit Up, and it becomes clear to me that trying to stall him out without healing items won't win me this fight. I hit a flying Z-move, then i switch to Anne to avoid getting killed. Anne takes massive damage from Scald, but she can't get crit so she's the ideal person to constantly heal up until there's no Scalds left. Once he's out, i hit a Smack Down for the kill.
With the trial complete, Mina gives me the Fairium Z, so there's not only one trial left to complete. I step outside, and i'm greeted by Hapu who tells me to come t Exeggutor Island when i'm ready for our battle. For now though, i'm calling it a day.
