'''Xurkitree''', the Glowing Pokémon, is an Ultra Beast that has appeared under mysterious circumstances on Tinsel Island. Resembling a mass of electrical wires, it pulses with a holiday glow, though the sheer voltage it emits is enough to short-circuit any trainer who underestimates its festive appearance.

== Boss Encounter: Xurkitree ==
This encounter features a "Special Setup Sweeper" with a lethal twist. Xurkitree uses its high Special Attack and access to Spore to immobilize opponents, giving it free turns to boost its power to catastrophic levels.

== Battle Strategy ==
* '''The Spore Trap:''' Unlike most Electric-types, this Xurkitree has access to '''Spore''', a 100% accurate sleep move. It will likely lead with this to incapacitate your Pokémon. Bringing a Pokémon with the **Insomnia**, **Vital Spirit**, or **Overcoat** ability is almost mandatory to avoid being a sitting duck.
* '''Nasty Plot Snowball:''' Once your Pokémon is asleep, Xurkitree will use '''Nasty Plot''' to double its already massive Special Attack. After just one boost, its attacks become nearly impossible to survive.
* '''Bolt-Beam Coverage:''' The combination of '''Thunderbolt''' and '''Blizzard''' provides nearly perfect coverage, hitting almost every Pokémon in the game for at least neutral damage. Ground-types are not safe due to Blizzard.
* '''Passive Sustain:''' Its '''Leftovers''' provide constant healing, making it harder to chip away at its HP while you are struggling to wake up.
* '''Counterplay:''' A fast **Taunt** user can stop both Spore and Nasty Plot. Alternatively, a Pokémon with **Sap Sipper** is immune to Spore and can take the opportunity to retaliate, though it must still be wary of Blizzard.
