Hokulani Observatory is a observatory on Ula'ula Island in the Alola region. It is the location of the Trial of Sophocles, the fifth trial challenged by the player character.
In this area, the player can bring Deoxys as there are meteorites which change its form.

Trial
In this trial, the player character must help Sophocles activate his special invention, in order to attract the Totem Vikavolt. This will require completing an audio quiz, in which sounds are played, and the player character must guess which events these sounds are associated with.
Question | Correct answer |
---|---|
What sound do you hear? | Pokémon Center |
You hear this sound when you get what? | Rotom Dex |
Which Pokémon's cry? | Charjabug |
What appears when you hear the music? | Totem Pokémon |
After answering the question correctly, a Pokémon will appear, with the last question summoning the Totem.
In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, this trial has changed somewhat. The player character must now go out into the courtyard, initially finding three of the Observatory's nine Charjabug. After this, they must be placed on a special platform to attract the Totem, and rotated specifically, with the final attempt forming a 'Z' shape. From this, the Totem will appear, which is this time a Togedemaru.
From completing the trial, you receive two Z-Crystals: an Electrium Z from Sophocles, and a Steelium Z from Molayne.
