Ultra Space

Ultra Space (Japanese: ウルトラスペース Ultra Space) is an interdimensional realm from where Ultra Beasts may come, being accessible via Ultra Wormhole. Ultra Space and Ultra Wormholes were discovered and named by Professor Mohn of the Aether Foundation. Professor Burnet, a researcher of the relationship between Pokémon and other dimensions, is researching these strange phenomena.
==Geography==
Ultra Space is an interdimensional spatial realm filled with crystalline meteoroids and populated by members of the line. It links to a number of different worlds and dimensions through differently colored Ultra Wormholes called warp holes. While they may naturally occur, these wormholes are more commonly deliberately opened by Cosmog, its evolutionary relatives and ; and Necrozma.

===History===
====Background====
In ancient times, Necrozma's light shone through the Ultra Wormholes connecting to various worlds such as the Ultra Beasts' homeworlds, Ultra Megalopolis and the Pokémon world, primarily over the Alola region. However, following an incident with the residents of Ultra Megalopolis in ancient years, Necrozma's body was damaged and it lost the ability to produce light, the agony caused by its injuries sending it into a berserk state where it constantly hungered for light. As a result, it was imprisoned in Megalo Tower. Professor Kukui theorizes that the Sparkling Stones found across Alola and fashioned into Z-Rings and Z-Power Rings are the lost pieces of Necrozma's body.
At one point in the past, a Solgaleo/Lunala arrived in Alola from Ultra Space and won a fight against the guardian deities. Solgaleo/Lunala bestowed the Tapunium Z to the guardian deities, and in conjunction with a Lunala/Solgaleo produced several that were revered by the region's monarchies and protected by the four tapu, before the Legendary Pokémon departed back to Ultra Space.
At another point in the past, Necrozma appeared in Alola and stole its light, covering the region in darkness. Necrozma clashed against the guardian deities, who fought to defend Alola. During that time, Necrozma also absorbed Solgaleo/Lunala to become its Dusk Mane/Dawn Wings form. With the assistance of a youth, Z-Crystals and Sparkling Stones, the deities banished Necrozma, freed Solgaleo/Lunala and reclaimed Alola's light.
Prior to the events of , Professor Mohn and the Aether Foundation had done research on Ultra Space, giving the location its name, and discovering what lies beyond Ultra Wormholes. He had discovered that Cosmog may be an Ultra Beast, due to its origins of Ultra Space.

As Hau and the visited Aether Paradise, an Ultra Wormhole opens in the facility and releases a Nihilego, that after its defeat, returns to Ultra Space. After the player reaches Lusamine in Aether Paradise with Hau, Lillie, Gladion, and Guzma, she uses Nebby's power to open countless Ultra Wormholes all over Alola to spread Ultra Beasts around the region. After she's defeated, she retreats into another Ultra Wormhole alongside Guzma as the wormholes started closing again. The player and Lillie, in order to save Guzma and Lusamine, formed another Ultra Wormhole with Nebby's help at the Altar of the Sunne/Altar of the Moone after it evolved into a /. They found themselves in the Nihilego's homeworld, Ultra Deep Sea (referred to as Ultra Space) and after defeating Lusamine, who had fused with a Nihilego, they all returned to Alola.
In the post-game, an Ultra Wormhole can still be found at the Altar of the Sunne/Altar of the Moone and can be passed through to enter an alternate version of the Pokémon world, specifically Alola, where it'll be nighttime/daytime instead, there the player can travel to the Lake of the Moone/Lake of the Sunne to obtain a through Nebby and a / from there. This world is known as the reverse world.
