[Pokémon SM] "UB Family" AU

I remembered when Pokémon Sun & Moon were being released and there was speculation that some of the character (specifically the Aether Family) were actually Ultra-Beasts in disguise. While that ultimately ended up not being true, I still think this concept would have been super cool to se, so I create this AU:

Essentially, in this au, the Aether Family are actual Ultra Beasts that have invaded the pokémon world for their own personal reasons and have grouped together to achieve their goals.

Nihilily is sweet and friendly young girl, perhaps a bit too friendly... she's clingy and surprisingly manipulative, being around her for long can feel draining. Buzzglad is a competitive teen who is a bit of a showoff, he's weirdly strong and loves drinking shakes. Pherolusa is the definition of elegance, the air around her is simply awe-inspiring, she enjoys receiving attention but hates being touched.

Together they are setting in motion a plan to conquer Alola to which the player must stop.

ＵＢ０１　Ｐａｒａｓｉｔｅ a.k.a NIHILILY

In this AU, Lillie is actually a Nihilego in disguise. She utilizes her appearance to get close to human and pokémon alike to feed on their life essence. Currently she is working for Necrozma alongside the other Ultra-Beasts in order to take over the Alola region

Thinking more about my UB-Family au so here are a few thoughts:

The current plan of the UBs is too take over alola with the Aether Foundation. To do that they have infiltrated various parts of the islands and started causing scenarios in which only the Foundation can resolve, creating trust in the public until they have the whole region under their thumb.

They accomplish this in many ways, mainly posing as a company devoted to helping pokemon in need, but they also claim to protect the region from outsider threats such as the mysterious Ultra-Beasts sittings around the region...

Ultimately Necrozma is the leader of the entire operation, controlling it all from the shadows... The second in command is Pherolusa, taking care of managing the specifics of the mission. Buzzglad is in charge of overall field operations, Nihilily is responsible for infiltration and Guzzmohn is the clean up crew.

The Tapus HATE the Aether Foundation, as they can sense that they are outsiders who pose a treat to the islands. As such they are currently one of the biggest adversaries to the UB-Family

The other main thorn on their path to world domination is the Ultra Recon Squad, they sensed Necrozma was up to something and have sent you (the player) to help understand what exactly is going on.

When Pherolusa and Guzzmonh they first met

Pherolusa and Guzzmohn, as well as Nihilily and Buzzglad, were all summoned from their respective ultra womholes by a mysterious figure who proposed a plan to invade and take over the Alola region. At first they were not all on board with the idea, but eventually they were persuaded by the offers given to by their new leader.

Nihilily was promised a plethora of new hosts to parasitize, same with Buzzglad who also enjoyed the prospect of free human/pokemon snacks, Guzzmonh was told he would be able to consume anything he desired in this new world. Pherolusa was the hardest to convince, as she doesn't really have an appetite like her companions, but the idea of having thousands of creatures under her pheromones influence was enough to change her mind.
