Summary
Buzzwole is one of the Ultra Beasts that appeared in the Alola region. It is the Sun counterpart of Pheromosa. Buzzwole is an Ultra Beast that resembles a large mosquito. Its size makes it the heaviest Bug-type Pokémon. Its head is small and flat with a black ridge up the center. It has two red compound eyes with two black, spherical basal joints for its red and black antennae between them. Protruding from under these joints is a long, silver proboscis. Buzzwole debuted in A Mission of Ultra Urgency!, where it appeared through an Ultra Wormhole at Melemele Meadow. It was the first Ultra Beast that Ash and his classmates were tasked to capture and return to its home world as the Ultra Guardians. Ash eventually succeeded in catching Buzzwole with a Beast Ball, allowing it to be returned home through another Ultra Wormhole soon after.
