Rhonder, the Puzzle League Master arrives at PPL West 2022!

Rhonder, the Puzzle League Master

Did you know that there is more than one way to battle Pokémon? Rhonder hails from a far off region where trainers put their skills to the test with puzzle showdowns rather than traditional Pokémon battles! What’s this? You have a rather puzzled look on your face. Rather than overthinking it, why not try it out for yourself?

Out-puzzle Rhonder to earn the Puzzle League Badge!

Introducing our Champion: Roxas, the Overcaffinated Admin!

Roxas, the Overcaffinated Admin

Admin Roxas retired from battling due to the stress of running the PAX Pokemon League. However, with each passing year the urge to battle has grown… Now with a smaller league and a lot more coffee, Admin Roxas has decided to pick up the battle mantle again. Will you be able to beat the Overcaffeinated Admin Roxas? Will you be able to overcome the Admin who runs the League itself?
