MDLbuilderized and Mythic’s Shadow, the Storytellers

In the stories, fairies and dragons are often on opposite sides. But MDLbuilderized and MythicShadow are bridging the gap between them to bring out their true powers. Can you end their story before it’s too late?

Conclude your story with a triumph to earn the FairyTail Badge!
- Leaders: Khadgar, the Puzzlemaster and Vinny, the Time Traveler
Khadgar, the Puzzlemaster

BATTLE STYLE: Gimmick
Puzzlemaster Khadgar is not your standard gym leader. Instead of bringing your team to face him, he loans you his own team, and in order to beat him, you have to find the right way to use it.

Solve the riddle to claim your Puzzle Badge!
Vinny, the Time Traveler

BATTLE STYLE: Doubles
Having traveled through Time and Darkness, an all-star team has emerged to take to the skies and defend the world from the planet’s paralysis! Can you defeat the all-stars and restore the flow of time?

Brave through Time and Darkness to win the Sky Badge!
- Leaders: Tanner, The Move Maniac and Wilhelm, the Chaos Agent
Tanner, The Move Maniac

BATTLE STYLE: Non-Battling
A novice researching focusing on Pokémon moves, Tanner is working to identify all sorts of moves throughout Pokémon history – from common moves in high end battles, to moves that haven’t been witnessed in years.

Identify Tanner’s moves to earn the Stats Badge!
Wilhelm, the Chaos Agent

BATTLE STYLE: Singles
Wilhelm has always been a gambler at heart, loving Game Corners the world over. But eventually, he found a trick to always win… cheating with his Pokémon! Of course, this got him banned from every Game Corner he entered. Now he’s come to the Pax Pokémon League, seeking the same adrenaline rush.

Beat the odds to win the Roulette Badge!
