PAX Prime 2014

Snorkus has always been able to use six mega Pokemon.  Because of this tremendous advantage he never lost a fight.  He soon became weary of fighting without challenge.  When he heard about the PAX Pokemon League the thought crept into his mind, “maybe one last tournament”.  Snorkus applied to become a leader, and the PPL was very happy to have him, though they requested that he only use one Mega to make things fair for the competitors.  That request caused outrage-how could Snorkus pick only one? He challenged the entire PPL at once to beat his six Megas on the condition that if they won he would use only one.  Finally after a 3 day long battle all of Snorkus’s Pokemon had fainted. Though, in recognition of his skill, the PPL made him the Battle Chateau Champion! Come test your strengths against Snorkus, the Mega Trainer and if you should win, you will be enshrined as one of PAX Prime’s Champions!

Thomas Roe was a high school dropout that was barely making ends meet by performing odd jobs here and there all around Sinnoh then spending the money at the Game Corner in Veilstone to try and turn a profit. Everything was working out as planned until the day he purchased a new phone from the Game Corner after hitting the jackpot – the phone had been possessed by a Rotom! Thomas with his extensive knowledge of electronics from his various odd jobs got along great with the Rotom, which he affectionately named Impulse after the decision to buy the phone in the first place. Through his various channels, Thomas discovered that the Battle Chateau could be a way to earn some serious cash and respect by having Impulse hack into the Chateau databases through trainers’ electronic ID devices, all under the guise of being just another trainer. Sitting pretty as an Elite Six member, he’s looking to flaunt his position a bit before making a break for it. Decode the mystery behind Thomas’ team and earn yourself the Digigeist Emblem!

As a child in the isolated village of Lundar, north of Frost Cavern, Solmun got lost in a blizzard and followed a flickering light in to try to find his way home. The light turned out to be a Charmander that had been separated from its pack. Together, they rode out the storm by finding a cave by way of Charmander’s tail. Solmun realized the value of Pokemon and the help they can provide, choosing to dedicate his life to teaching this value to other trainers—a sentiment he shares with his wife, Spyra. After proving his worth to the Battle Chateau by defeating many challengers, he was invited to become an Elite Six member of the PAX Pokemon League. His sunny Pokemon can break through any storm, but if you can block him out, you’ll earn yourself the Daybreak Emblem.

Lt. Surge hails from North America, and was a member of Team Rocket in Kanto before they were defeated at the hands of Red and Gary Oak. Though he turned his attention back to his job in the Army (using his Electric-type Pokemon to scout enemy explosives from his squadron of jets) he never lost hope that one day Team Rocket would return to power. While deployed to Johto in 2013, Lt. Surge heard rumor that Team Rocket had taken over the PAX Pokemon League. He arrived too late, however, and all that was left was rumor and whisper that they were defeated by young heroes yet again. Lt. Surge decided to join the PPL in hopes of tracking down his old contacts, and he was promptly raised to the rank of Duke of the Elite Six for his work for the Army. Beat his master strategies and you can call the Thunder Badge your own!

Sidney was a delinquent who wandered Hoenn causing trouble and having battles with everyone he met. In his travels he encountered Steven, the reigning Champion of Hoenn, to whom he narrowly suffered his first defeat. Steven offered him a place on the Hoenn Elite Four, an offer which Sidney jumped at immediately because it would be the best place to have the toughest battles-something Sidney was searching for desperately. The Hoenn Pokemon League recently went under renovations, leaving Sidney without an outlet for his battling until November. In order to entertain himself, Sidney forced his way into the Elite Six at this year and is aiming to take on as many challengers as he can. Overpower his highly aggressive battling style and you can claim the Might Emblem.

Succeed in your duel and claim the Solitary Emblem as your prize!
