The spectral change of Pleione in the present Be phase (1988-1999) is briefly described. The Hα emission reached its maximum in 1995-1999. The V/R values of Hγ and metallic lines changed from V/R < 1 in 1995 to V/R > 1 in 1998-1999. The broad component of Mg II λ4481 line further weakened in Be phase.

The long-term variation in 1968-1999 is shown for several observational quantities. These quantities which reflect various levels from the photosphere up to the outer envelope did not change in a parallel way. The basic unsolved problems are pointed out.
