League Club Problem Child (Japanese: リーグ部の問題児！？) was a story event in Pokémon Masters EX. It was focused on the sync pairs Drayton & Archaludon and Sygna Suit Kieran & Furret. It also introduced Drayden as an NPC.

The "Drayton EX Fair" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Drayton & Archaludon for the duration of the event, and the "Sygna Suit Kieran EX Master Fair" gave players an increased chance of recruiting Sygna Suit Kieran & Furret from May 1, 2026 to the end of the event.

During this event, players could earn event points by completing battles. Players received rewards based on the number of points accumulated, including 5★ Scout Tickets, a Strike Move Candy Coin, a 5★ Power-Up, and medals. All battles could be challenged an unlimited number of times except Daily Extreme Battle 1, which could only be challenged once per day.

The player could battle using Drayton & Archaludon or Sygna Suit Kieran & Furret to obtain +0.6× bonus points; Lacey & Granbull, Hassel & Baxcalibur, Juliana & Koraidon, or Paulo & Lycanroc to obtain +0.4× bonus points; and Hop & Zamazenta or any unlisted Paldea sync pairs to obtain +0.2× bonus points.

This event featured the Battle Challenge, where players were challenged to defeat a team of strong opponents. Players could complete event missions by clearing these areas with one or fewer sync pairs fainting and sync pairs with specific theme skills on the team.

From the beginning of the event, a splash screen featuring art of Drayton & Archaludon and Sygna Suit Kieran & Furret was displayed when opening the game.
