If the title is real that might lead to Ash having a Shiny Wimpod/Golisopod.
Unless it's April's Fools or smth...

Oh right tomorrow is the first of April. Yeah it's probably a fake.

I think that it is an April Fool's joke. The summary and title are a literal copy paste of XY117, with the Shiny Phantump substituted for a Shiny Wimpod.

It would have been odd to give Ash a shiny Wimpod instead of that one from episode 20.

The real SM117 has just been announced. It's an episode where Eevee, Shaymin, and Meltan get lost.
 
I really doubt they'd have Poipole come back for the League and then just have it leave again. If they wanted Ash to use Poipole in the League but didn't want him to keep it long term they probably wouldn't have had him release it the first time; they'd have just saved him finding its ultra wormhole until after the League. Besides, having Ash catch something as special as an Ultra Beast not once but twice and still not getting to keep it would be REALLY messed up for them to do.

If that's the case, then either Poipole will get Oaked, Ash will use reserves, or he will just not have a full team.

Poipole returning for a few episodes before returning to Ultra Space is exactly what Goodra did last season. It can happen again

It's different because Poipole is an Ultra Beast, according to the OP.
It's really not any different. Goodra was a psuedo yet it still stayed in the swamp before and after the league. And it's not really a matter of "catching" Poipole again. Ash still presumably has its beast ball

I believe that Ash still has Poipole's Beast Ball, and that it will most likely return.

EH, wrong! Goodra may not be at Oak's lab but it still belongs to Ash. It's just like when Charizard was at the Charicific Valley; it was never truly released, just left at a place where it feels more at home than Oak's lab but is still just as accessible to Ash as his other reserves.

And Poipole cant be accessible the same way? If Ash returns to Ultra Space it can request Poipole's assistance for the League. Then once that's over Lusamine opens the portal and sends it home. Simple.

The difference between these scanarios is its accessibility in the FUTURE gens. Leaving a Pokemon at a nature preserve like Goodra is hardly the same as leaving it in another dimension. I highly doubt they'll still have him going to Ultra Space after he leaves Alola; if Poipole is still in its own universe when Ash leaves Alola it's pretty safe to say he's never going to see it again.

If they need to find a way for Poipole to return post Alola they'll find one. Who knows maybe new Ultra Beasts could appear in SS.

I don't think that Poipole is coming back in future gens, nor do I think that SS will introduce new Ultra Beasts.
