The Alola region represents the seventh generation of Pokémon, and despite all the new features and the Hawaii-like setting, the core mechanic of version exclusives remains. That means there are Pokémon unique to Ultra Sun that you cannot get in Ultra Moon, and vice versa. If you’ve gotta catch ’em all, you will need to trade with someone.
Here is a list of all version exclusives available in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon.
