The Ultra Elite Four

Molayne, Olivia, Acerola and Kahili can be challenged in any order. Each first-challenge team has four level 56 Pokémon and a level 57 ace holding its type’s Z-Crystal. Rematches raise every Pokémon to level 66 and change several moves. Molayne replaces Hala, who led the original Sun and Moon Elite Four.
