Captains

In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, a Trial Captain is the highest-ranking member of a trial of The Rite of the Island Challenges. Each Trial Captain is assigned in different parts of the Alola region. They replace Gym Leaders in the Alola region due to Alola's culture being significantly different from other regions. 

These are the Trial Captains that appear in game:

  • Ilima: A Trial Captain who specializes in Normal-type Pokémon.
  • Lana: A Trial Captain who specializes in Water-type Pokémon.
  • Kiawe: A Trial Captain who specializes in Fire-type Pokémon.
  • Mallow: A Trial Captain who specializes in Grass-type Pokémon.
  • Sophocles: A Trial Captain who specializes in Electric-type Pokémon.
  • Acerola: A Trial Captain who specializes in Ghost-type Pokémon.
  • Mina: A Trial Captain who specializes in Fairy-type Pokémon.

Anime[]

In the anime, Lana, Kiawe, Mallow, and Sophocles attend the Pokémon Trainer School as Professor Kukui's students alongside Ash and Lillie. Trial Captains don't exist; totem Pokémon take their place, with Kahunas being the only ones who administer trials.

Trivia[]

  • The only region with Trial Captains for all three of the starter types are Alola.
  • The only trial site to not have an assigned Trial Captain is the Dragon-type trial on Poni Island.
