Then why Tapu Koko is charging towards UB02 in the trailer?

You're telling me that's not allowed and/or illegal? :)

Your chain of thought doesn't consider the possiblity of non-Pokémon Battles

Official site calls them specifically Pokemon Battles.

What about the PokéStudios opponents, then? Were those Pokémon too? You could battle them, after all.

>>28543827
>You could "battle" a green screen

>>28543850
Still a battle

>>28543827
You battled an idea

>>28543772
They specifically call them Pokemon battles, though and UBs are specifically not called Pokemon. We don't even see them in actual battle with Tapu Koko - evidence that it's just a cutscene.

>>28543724
You haven't played the game and there's absolutely no official confirmation.

Therefore you're just an ignoramus.

>>28543890
Are ideas Pokémon?

>>28543724
It's still a pokemon battle if one of the participants is a pokemon

>>28543899
Human Black Belts can have a Karate Battle.

>>28543899
They say Pokémon Battles, but they don't say that's the only kind of battle that exists

>>28543928
>In the past, Pokémon battles have generally been battles of one Trainer against another.
>They also allow players a new way to enjoy Pokémon battles

UBs are separated from Pokemon on the official site. Therefore, it's obvious with logic that you can't battle them.

Nice head canon.

>>28543983
You site that Pokémon battles are the only from of battles that exist. The existance of the prefix Pokémon suggests that other forms of battle exist.

>>28544017
Pokemon battles are the only type of real battles.

I love this low level shitposting. Reminds me of the "1 tiny island" shitposting from a few months back. Gud times

Thanks, Pokejungle.

Love that no one has a counter point other than

OR
>Is this bait!?!1!?

This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard and I can't believe how many people seem to have this same thinking. Just because something is not a pokemon doesn't mean a pokemon can't fucking fight it.

>>28544382
But they're called Pokemon Battles, you can't have a Pokemon Battle with non-Pokemon, unless you think the official site is lying to us?

>>28544549
Yeah you can. If you punch a Charizard in the face and it proceeds to bite your arm off, that's called "battling a Pokemon."

>>28544630
But it's not a Pokemon battle, that's not the same thing.

I'm sure UB-02 will 'fight' Tapu Koko, but it won't be a 'battle', it'll just be a cut scene and they'll just be NPCs.

>Encounter Ultra Beasts during the story
>Something happens that causes them to be regular Pokemon that you can capture
>Need a held item to turn them back into Ultra Beasts

That's what I think will happen, but it's still up in the air at this point.

>>28543724
>They're called Ultra Beasts
>this means they can't be caught with Pokeball
>however this does NOT mean that they can't be caught some other way

You got proven wrong.

>>28544880
That is not my point at all. I am saying they can't be battled. Did you read the OP or just start mashing the keyboard?

>>28543724
>it isn't literal so it's wrong
This is autism.

>>28545229
Is it any worse than the "they aren't Pokemon so you can't catch them" arguments?
