A huge thank you again to everyone who participated this year at PPL West 2024!!! Thank you to our amazing challengers for stopping by and our Gym Leaders for taking the time out of their schedules to make PPL a memorable experience for everyone involved! Without you, we would have no PPL. Hope to see everyone again in 2025!
- Champion: Zazz, the Team Yell Reject!
Zazz, the Team Yell Reject!
BATTLE STYLE: SINGLES
Growing up in Spikemuth, Zazz admired Team Yell’s aesthetic and rebellious attitude. Determined to follow their punky style, Zazz learned human language from a Meowth and rallied his friends to join Team Yell. However, they soon figured out that Team Yell’s lifestyle wasn’t what they imagined. Deciding it wasn’t for them, Zazz and his Pokémon friends left Spikemuth, and through their journeys around the world they realized they love battling instead. Now, they’ve made their way to the PAX Pokémon League, eager to challenge trainers and Pokémon!
Defeat Zazz and his band of Team Yell rejects to earn the Punk Wannabe Emblem and your place in the 2024 PPL West Hall of Fame!
- Leaders: Tali & Jose, Surf & Turf, Wrokk, the Redeemed Rocket, and Tyr, the Battle Hardened Fighter!
Tali & Jose, Surf & Turf!
BATTLE STYLE: MULTI
Some believe in a food pyramid, but Tali & Jose subscribe to two food pillars – surf and turf. They’ve come to PAX to show the world that there is no other more complete meal. Will you be able to prove them wrong?
Show these double battle connoisseurs a healthy helping of veggies to earn the Complete Meal Badge!
Wrokk, the Redeemed Rocket!
BATTLE STYLE: SINGLES
Wrokk was a nameless Team Rocket Grunt for years doing the bidding of the Rocket Executives. When Team Rocket dissolved, he was left with nothing and had to rediscover himself. Now he dedicates himself to teaching other trainers in hope they won’t fall down the same dark path he did.
Show Wrokk you have what it takes to protect the world from devastation to earn the Redeemed Badge!
Tyr, the Battle Hardened Fighter!
BATTLE STYLE: SINGLES
Tyr is known for his mastery of combat strategy and the indomitable fighting spirit that fuels his team. Together, he and his Pokémon have honed their skills through countless battles, driven by their unwavering determination to prevail. Prepare yourself for a challenge where every move is calculated and every victory hard-earned. Show them your best, and let your clash of tactics and fighting spirit determine who emerges triumphant!
Defeat Tyr in honorable battle to earn the Warrior Badge!
- Leaders: Seven Pyroars, the Production Maestro and Snake Eyes, the Low-Roller!
Seven Pyroars, the Production Maestro!
BATTLE STYLE: SINGLES
A producer and DJ hailing from the Unova Region, Seven Pyroars has long been creating, honing, and mastering his craft of melodic, inspired electronic music. After touring the world several times over, selling out venues like Hammerlocke Stadium, the Hearthome Contest Hall, and Jaune Plaza in Lumiose City, he’s set on bringing his talents to PAX West.
Seven Pyroars uses many sound-based moves, which are usually special attacks. Bring some Assault Vests to withstand his auditory onslaught and earn the Wall of Sound Badge!
Snake Eyes, the Low-Roller!
BATTLE STYLE: SINGLES
Snake Eyes’ taste for danger and serpents was ignited when a plane-load of snakes fell on the casino he was playing in. That night he won big. Always willing to take a gamble, Snake Eyes and his serpent friends are here to risk it all.
Get lucky to earn the Snake Eyes Badge!
- Leaders: Rhonder, the Vacationing Ice Trainer and Frances, the Overcaffinated Admin!
Rhonder, the Vacationing Ice Trainer!
BATTLE STYLE: SINGLES, DOUBLES
Even Ice-Type trainers like to hit the beach every now and then. Rhonder and his team are out here enjoying the end of summer to the fullest! What’s that, his Pokémon are looking a little slushy? Don’t sweat it! Race you to the water, last one in’s a rotten Exeggcute!
Bring Rhonder’s fun in the sun to an end to earn the Half-Melted Badge!
Frances, the Overcaffinated Admin!
BATTLE STYLE: SINGLES
Frances has little time to mess around with Pokémon battles. She has to keep the PPL running and can only take appointments one at a time.
Avoid Frances’s punches and arrive on time to earn the Busy Badge!
