The '''Pokémon League''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンリーグ''' ''Pokémon League'') of [[Unova]] is the location of the region's [[Elite Four#Unova Elite Four|Elite Four]], who may only be challenged after defeating all eight Unova [[Gym Leader]]s. It is located on a large hill north of {{un|Victory Road}} and it requires traveling through a mountain to reach the entrance.
The '''Pokémon League''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンリーグ''' ''Pokémon League'') of [[Unova]] is the location of the [[region]]'s {{DL|Elite Four|Unova Elite Four|Elite Four}}, who may only be challenged after defeating all eight Unova [[Gym Leader]]s. It is located on a large hill at the central northern tip of Unova and connected to {{un|Victory Road}}, which requires traveling through a mountain to reach the entrance.


In Pokémon Black and White, reaching the Pokémon League requires first passing through Unova's [[Victory Road (Black and White)|original Victory Road]] by presenting all of the Unova Badges, and then making it through a large mountain. Once through, the player will make their way through a crevice and reach the League. Housed on a pedestal are four stairways leading to the different Elite Four members: the first door on the left leading to [[Shauntal]], the next door leading to [[Grimsley]], the third door leading to [[Caitlin]] and the last door ending on the right leading to [[Marshal]]. To the left of the pedestal is a doorway leading to the League's [[Pokémon Center]] and [[Poké Mart]]. After beating the four members, the player can face the Champion, [[Alder]], in the temple behind the castle that houses the Elite Four.
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, reaching the Pokémon League requires passing through the Badge Check Gates located at the end of {{rt|10|Unova}} by showing all eight Unova Gym [[Badge]]s. After showing the eighth Badge, the {{player}} must traverse Unova's [[Victory Road (Black and White)|original Victory Road]], which is carved in the side of a mountain. Once through, the player will make their way through a crevice and reach the League. Housed on a pedestal are four stairways leading to the different Elite Four members: the first door on the left leading to [[Shauntal]], the next door leading to [[Grimsley]], the third door leading to [[Caitlin]] and the last door ending on the right leading to [[Marshal]]. To the left of the pedestal is a doorway leading to the League's [[Pokémon Center]] and [[Poké Mart]]. After beating the four members, the player can face the Champion, [[Alder]], in the temple behind the castle that houses the Elite Four.


In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, {{rt|10|Unova}} has been sealed off due to a landslide. Therefore, [[Victory Road (Black 2 and White 2)|a new path to the Pokémon League]] was built. Alder has retired to [[Floccesy Town]] with [[Iris]] taking his place as Champion.
In {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, {{rt|10|Unova}} has been sealed off due to a landslide. Therefore, [[Victory Road (Black 2 and White 2)|a new path to the Pokémon League]] was built. Alder has retired to [[Floccesy Town]] with [[Iris]] taking his place as Champion. The original Unova Elite Four members retained their positions within the two year period, and reside in the same towers as before.

===Statue===
===Statue===
In the center of the Pokémon League is a statue that lists each of the Elite Four members and the locations of their rooms. After defeating each Elite Four member, a blue light will glow in front of the doorway to their room. After defeating all of the Elite Four members, the ring around the statue will glow blue. If the statue is interacted with at this point, it will act as an elevator and lower the player to the courtyard below. This courtyard leads to an enormous staircase, leading to the Champion's room in a temple at the summit.

In Black and White, Grimsley's room is also cylindrical with a large structure in the middle. The room is somewhat of an elegant ballroom, reminiscent of vampire castles and 1800s Eastern European design. This chamber is dominated by shades of deep crimson and black, while torches light the room up and an elaborate chandelier hangs from above the battlefield. Upon reaching the edge of the platform, the player can walk onto a platform which will take the player and lift them up around the winding staircase. Once the player makes their way to the top, they will find Grimsley waiting for them.

In Black 2 and White 2, the stairs to Grimsley's platform are lined with red and black, talon-like features that block the way, then lift out of the way to let the player pass and close again behind them. Gimsley's platform hangs from the walls by chains and is again lit by torches and a chandelier, with a sofa behind Grimsley.

In Black and White, the Champion's room consists of a simple elevated platform surrounded by rock pillars inside of the temple. Walking up the short stairs inside the temple allows a battle with the Champion, Alder. The wall behind Alder bears rock carved in a starburst pattern.

{{spoilers}}
When entering the Champion's room for the first time, [[N]] and [[Alder]] are seen face-to-face upon the platform, with N having beaten Alder using the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|B}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}. Upon noticing the player, N will call upon [[Team Plasma]]'s [[N's Castle|castle]] and ambush the Pokémon League, where the player must infiltrate the castle to stop N. Because of this, Alder cannot be battled until the player challenges the Elite Four again after completing the main storyline.

In Black 2 and White 2, the Champion's room consists of a large stepped pyramid surrounded by pillars. At the top of the Pyramid, the new Champion awaits in front of a large throne with a statue rising over it, and the room lights up in a flash as the player reaches the top of the stairs. On the wall behind the champion is an elaborate crest against a backdrop of a starry sky. The crest consists of four emblems representing the types of the Elite Four circling a larger, fifth crest in the center, representing the Champion, Iris. When she is beaten, the crests align and the statue lowers into the ground, and the center crest opens as a staircase rises from the hole where the statue descended, granting access to the Hall of Fame.

The Pokémon League appears as a stage in the [[3DS]] version of [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]].
==In the anime==

[[File:Unova Pokémon League PG.png|thumb|220px|The Unova Pokémon League in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]
[[File:Pokémon League N Castle Evolutions.png|thumb|220px|The Unova Pokémon League in [[Pokémon Evolutions]]]]
===Main series===
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the Unova [[Pokémon League Conference]] was held in [[Vertress City]].
 
===Pokémon Generations===
The Unova Pokémon League appeared in ''[[PG13|The Uprising]]'', where it was surrounded by [[N's Castle]]. [[Iris]] and most of [[Unova]]'s [[Gym Leader]]s subsequently took on an army of {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s emerging from the castle.
 
===Pokémon Evolutions===
The Unova Pokémon League appeared in a flashback in ''[[PE04|The Plan]]'', surrounded by [[N's Castle]]. [[N]] and {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Zekrom}} faced [[Alder]] and his {{p|Volcarona}} in a battle at the League, emerging victorious against the {{pkmn|Champion}}.
{{-}}
 
==In the manga==
===Pocket Monsters BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder===
The Pokémon League briefly appeared in ''[[FAT3|A Very Important Thing]]'', where [[N]] was shown to have utterly crushed the [[Elite Four]] and decimated the place with {{p|Zekrom}}'s power. Turning towards the {{pkmn|Champion}}'s chamber, N swore to defeat [[Alder]] next.
 
===Pokémon Adventures===

[[File:Pokémon League Unova Elite Four rooms Adventures.png|thumb|230px|The Elite Four's rooms in Pokémon Adventures]]
===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
The Pokémon League first appeared in ''[[PS511|Dream a Little Dream]]'', when the Pokémon League tournament began. During the first half of the competition, 32 Trainers with eight [[Badge|Gym Badges]] entered {{OBP|Victory Road|Black and White}}. In the end, eight Trainers ({{adv|Black}}, {{adv|Cheren}}, [[Iris]], [[Marlon]], [[Colress|Hood Man]], [[Zinzolin|Gray]], [[Leo]], and {{adv|Looker|Lou Karr}}) made their way to the Pokémon League itself, where the tournament was held.
 
The tournament arena contains eight {{i|Poké Ball}}-shaped capsules, one for each Trainer taking part in the tournament. Trainers are only allowed to exit their capsules when it is their turn to battle. The victorious Trainers' capsules move upwards on a wall in the shape of a giant tournament table. Each capsule also contains a healing machine, which can be used to heal the Trainer's Pokémon while they wait for their turn to battle. The Trainer who wins the tournament is allowed to challenge the Elite Four, and, if victorious against them, the Champion. However, due [[Alder]] having lost a battle against {{adv|N}} and being absent from the League, it was declared that simply defeating the Elite Four would be enough to gain the Champion title this time.
 
Eventually, Black and Cheren made it to the finals. When Black realized that Cheren had started to follow [[Team Plasma]]'s ideology, he immediately began battling him, even though the final battle wasn't supposed to start yet. The battle ended in Black's victory, but due to [[N's Castle]] subsequently rising from the ground and Team Plasma beginning their attack on the League, Black wasn't able to challenge the Elite Four.
 
===={{MangaArc|Black 2 & White 2}}====
In ''[[PS547|The Final Battle: Crushed Ambition]]'', the Pokémon League was revealed to still be surrounded by N's Castle two years later. When the out-of-control [[Plasma Frigate]] collided with the castle and set it on fire, threatening the Pokémon inside the castle, the Unova [[Pokédex holder]]s, Cheren, {{adv|Bianca}}, [[Hugh]], [[Benga]], and [[Cedric Juniper]] combined their [[first partner Pokémon]]'s respective pledge moves in order to put out the fire.
 
When the [[International Police]] prepared to take Ghetsis into custody, he said that people would fall for his lies in the future as well, but {{adv|Whitley}} declared that even if people would be deceived by him again, the numerous Pokémon he had hurt would never forget about him or let him get away with his evil deeds ever again. The angry glares of the Pokémon in N's Castle caused Ghetsis to have a nervous breakdown and laugh madly as the International Police took him away.

Location of Pokémon League in Unova.
The entrance

The Pokémon League (Japanese: ポケモンリーグ Pokémon League) of Unova is the location of the region's Elite Four, who may only be challenged after defeating all eight Unova Gym Leaders. It is located on a large hill at the central northern tip of Unova and connected to Victory Road, which requires traveling through a mountain to reach the entrance.

In Pokémon Black and White, reaching the Pokémon League requires passing through the Badge Check Gates located at the end of Route 10 by showing all eight Unova Gym Badges. After showing the eighth Badge, the player must traverse Unova's original Victory Road, which is carved in the side of a mountain. Once through, the player will make their way through a crevice and reach the League. Housed on a pedestal are four stairways leading to the different Elite Four members: the first door on the left leading to Shauntal, the next door leading to Grimsley, the third door leading to Caitlin and the last door ending on the right leading to Marshal. To the left of the pedestal is a doorway leading to the League's Pokémon Center and Poké Mart. After beating the four members, the player can face the Champion, Alder, in the temple behind the castle that houses the Elite Four.

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Route 10 has been sealed off due to a landslide. Therefore, a new path to the Pokémon League was built. Alder has retired to Floccesy Town with Iris taking his place as Champion. The original Unova Elite Four members retained their positions within the two year period, and reside in the same towers as before.

Demographics

Unova's Pokémon League has a population of 10.

Structure

Unlike previous groups of Elite Four, the Unova Elite Four can be challenged in any order. Once one is defeated, a warp tile activates which can then transport the player back to the main room.

Statue

The main lobby of the Pokémon League is an outdoor area with a statue in its center that lists each of the Elite Four members and the locations of their rooms. After defeating each Elite Four member, a blue light will glow in front of the doorway to their room. After defeating all of the Elite Four members, the ring around the statue will glow blue. If the statue is interacted with at this point, it will act as an elevator and lower the player to the courtyard below, leading to an enormous staircase to the Champion's room in a temple at the summit.

"Words are engraved on the statue:
Four great warriors form this Pokémon League.
To the southwest is one who does not fear the Ghost type.
To the southeast is one who channels the power of the Fighting type.
To the northwest is one who has mastered the Dark type.
To the northeast is one who knows the mind of the Psychic type.
If you can defeat these warriors with your courage and wisdom, you shall be led to the summit, where the strongest Champion awaits."

Shauntal's room

Black White Black 2 White 2
Shauntal Room BW.png Shauntal Room B2W2.png
 

In Black and White, Shauntal's room is modeled after a haunted house. It is a giant cylindrical room with a large structure in the middle made out of wooden bookcases. The back of the room is made up of windows portraying a thunderstorm. Upon reaching the edge of the platform, two will-o-wisps will carry the Trainer around the winding staircase and drop the player at the top. Here Shauntal awaits challengers.

In Black 2 and White 2, the player ascends a staircase lit by purple flames to find Shauntal on a circular platform surrounded by stacks of books and ringed by bookcases in the background. Purple flames hover around the stacks of books, moving them back and forth. As the player approaches, the flames vanish and the books scatter to the ground, followed by a lantern with a purple flame lighting up to re-illuminate the room and moving behind Shauntal.

Marshal's room

Marshal Room BW.png Marshal Room B2W2.png
 

In Black and White, Marshal's room is modeled after a wrestling ring with a cage overhead. His room is cylindrical with a large structure in the middle made out of mechanical pieces. The back of the room is shadowed down without lighting. Upon reaching the edge of the platform and stepping onto another platform, the platform will lift the player up around the winding pathway to the wrestling ring. Once there, lights will turn on and flash about, and then the player may challenge Marshal.

In Black 2 and White 2, Marshal's room is ringed by a large circular cage, half of which unlocks and flings open as the player enters below. A walkway rises to form a staircase up to a platform shaped like the lower half of a Poké Ball. As the player reaches the top of the stairs, Marshal descends on a platform shaped like a Poké Ball's top half to complete the design.

Grimsley's room

Grimsley Room BW.png Grimsley Room B2W2.png
 

In Black and White, Grimsley's room is also cylindrical with a large structure in the middle. The room is somewhat of an elegant ballroom, reminiscent of vampire castles and 1800s Eastern European design. This chamber is dominated by shades of deep crimson and black, while torches light the room up and an elaborate chandelier hangs from above the battlefield. Upon reaching the edge of the platform, the player can walk onto a platform which will take the player and lift them up around the winding staircase. Once the player makes their way to the top, they will find Grimsley waiting for them.

In Black 2 and White 2, the stairs to Grimsley's platform are lined with red and black, talon-like features that block the way, then lift out of the way to let the player pass and close again behind them. Grimsley's platform hangs from the walls by chains and is again lit by torches and a chandelier, with a sofa behind Grimsley.

Caitlin's room

Caitlin Room BW.png Caitlin Room B2W2.png
 

In Black and White, Caitlin's room as well is large and cylindrical, this time with a large empty space in the middle. The back of the room is made up of a void where stars can be seen with meteors periodically showering down. Upon reaching the edge of the platform, psychic energy will engulf the Trainer and lift them up to a platform with a canopied bed set on it. Upon landing on the platform, the curtains will open, and Caitlin will get out of her bed and walk toward the player for a battle.

In Black 2 and White 2, the player climbs a black staircase lit with glowing specks of light to find a giant white rose blossom hovering over a platform, giving off sparkles of light. As the player approaches the rose opens to reveal Caitlin and vanishes, leaving her to slowly float to the ground.

Champion's room

Once all Elite Four members are defeated, the statue in the central room lights up, and when stepped in front of becomes an elevator, leading the player to a large underground chamber with steps leading up to a structure containing the Champion's room.

In Black and White, the Champion's room consists of a simple elevated platform surrounded by rock pillars inside of the temple. The wall behind Alder bears rock carved in a starburst pattern.

When entering the Champion's room for the first time, N and Alder are seen face-to-face upon the platform, with N having beaten Alder using the Legendary Pokémon ZekromB/ReshiramW. Upon noticing the player, N will call upon Team Plasma's castle and ambush the Pokémon League, where the player must infiltrate the castle to stop N. Because of this, Alder cannot be battled until the player challenges the Elite Four again after completing the main storyline.

201 Spoilers end here. 201

In Black 2 and White 2, the Champion's room consists of a large stepped pyramid surrounded by pillars. At the top of the Pyramid, the new Champion awaits in front of a large throne with a statue rising over it, and the room lights up in a flash as the player reaches the top of the stairs. On the wall behind the champion is an elaborate crest against a backdrop of a starry sky. The crest consists of four emblems representing the types of the Elite Four circling a larger, fifth crest in the center, representing the Champion, Iris. When she is beaten, the crests align and the statue lowers into the ground, and the center crest opens as a staircase rises from the hole where the statue descended, granting access to the Hall of Fame.

Main series

In the anime, the Unova Pokémon League Conference was held in Vertress City.

Pokémon Generations

The Unova Pokémon League appeared in The Uprising, where it was surrounded by N's Castle. Iris and most of Unova's Gym Leaders subsequently took on an army of Team Plasma Grunts emerging from the castle.

Pokémon Evolutions

The Unova Pokémon League appeared in a flashback in The Plan, surrounded by N's Castle. N and Zekrom faced Alder and his Volcarona in a battle at the League, emerging victorious against the Champion.

In the manga

Pocket Monsters BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder

The Pokémon League briefly appeared in A Very Important Thing, where N was shown to have utterly crushed the Elite Four and decimated the place with Zekrom's power. Turning towards the Champion's chamber, N swore to defeat Alder next.

Pokémon Adventures

Black & White arc

The Pokémon League first appeared in Dream a Little Dream, when the Pokémon League tournament began. During the first half of the competition, 32 Trainers with eight Gym Badges entered Victory Road. In the end, eight Trainers (Black, Cheren, Iris, Marlon, Hood Man, Gray, Leo, and Lou Karr) made their way to the Pokémon League itself, where the tournament was held.

The tournament arena contains eight Poké Ball-shaped capsules, one for each Trainer taking part in the tournament. Trainers are only allowed to exit their capsules when it is their turn to battle. The victorious Trainers' capsules move upwards on a wall in the shape of a giant tournament table. Each capsule also contains a healing machine, which can be used to heal the Trainer's Pokémon while they wait for their turn to battle. The Trainer who wins the tournament is allowed to challenge the Elite Four, and, if victorious against them, the Champion. However, due Alder having lost a battle against N and being absent from the League, it was declared that simply defeating the Elite Four would be enough to gain the Champion title this time.

Eventually, Black and Cheren made it to the finals. When Black realized that Cheren had started to follow Team Plasma's ideology, he immediately began battling him, even though the final battle wasn't supposed to start yet. The battle ended in Black's victory, but due to N's Castle subsequently rising from the ground and Team Plasma beginning their attack on the League, Black wasn't able to challenge the Elite Four.

Black 2 & White 2 arc

In The Final Battle: Crushed Ambition, the Pokémon League was revealed to still be surrounded by N's Castle two years later. When the out-of-control Plasma Frigate collided with the castle and set it on fire, threatening the Pokémon inside the castle, the Unova Pokédex holders, Cheren, Bianca, Hugh, Benga, and Cedric Juniper combined their first partner Pokémon's respective pledge moves in order to put out the fire.

When the International Police prepared to take Ghetsis into custody, he said that people would fall for his lies in the future as well, but Whitley declared that even if people would be deceived by him again, the numerous Pokémon he had hurt would never forget about him or let him get away with his evil deeds ever again. The angry glares of the Pokémon in N's Castle caused Ghetsis to have a nervous breakdown and laugh madly as the International Police took him away.

Trivia

  • In pre-National Pokédex battles, the Elite Four will use only four Pokémon. Previous Elite Four groups have used five Pokémon each when they are challenged for the first time.
  • In Black and White, the Unova League is the only League with an Elite Four where the player doesn't battle a fifth Trainer the first time through. Instead, the player arrives after Alder's defeat by N, causing the player to have to follow N to his castle. Alder can only be battled post-National Pokédex.
  • This is the first Pokémon League where there is not a set order; instead, there is a large room with all four Elite Four member entrances open.
    • This is the first Pokémon League where the player can exit the Elite Four member's room by going back they way they came. However, this can only be done before completely ascending the staircase.
  • In the individual rooms, the spiraling staircases make one full rotation in the females' rooms and two full rotations in the males' room.
  • This is the only Pokémon League not to award a Ribbon in any of the games it appears.
