Molayne/Manga

Molayne debuted in PASM19. He and Sophocles were first seen helping innocent civilians escape from the Ultra Beasts that had escaped from Po Town to wreak havoc on Ula'ula Island. They managed to evacuate the people to Hokulani Observatory, but with the beasts still on the loose, they worried that it may eventually get attacked as well. To circumvent this problem, Sophocles decided to use an invention designed to call Totem Pokémon in order to guide the beasts away from the observatory, though it never worked.

In PASM22, Molayne, Sophocles, Acerola, Professor Kukui, and Gladion fought off a and  at  to prevent them from reaching Hokulani Observatory. Gladion easily defeated Celesteela and later defeated Guzzlord to prevent it from hurting Lillie.

Later, Sophocles and Molayne told the Trial Captains and Island Kahunas to gather at Hokulani Observatory. With a -shaped airship, Molayne and Sophocles took the others to Mount Lanakila, where a wormhole had opened up earlier. Shortly after they arrived, their ship was attacked by a group of s and their Ultra Beasts. With the Z-Moves they had acquired, Molayne and the others managed to defeat the Ultra Beasts.
