Trivia

  • Kukui is the only Trainer whose alternate outfit has a different name, Dex number, and ID number.
  • The Masked Royal and Incineroar is the only sync pair featuring a starter Pokémon evolutionary line that does not have a Fire-, Water-, or Grass-type move.
  • Kukui and Lycanroc were the last 5★ sync pair in the general sync pair scout pool to unlock the ability to upgrade to 6★ EX.

Origin

Kukui's design is based on his appearance in Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon. Midday Form Lycanroc is Kukui's lead Pokémon during the battle against him at the Pokémon League. Midday Form Lycanroc's Dex entry comes from Ultra Sun.

The Masked Royal is Kukui's alter ego that he uses whenever he participates in Battle Royals at the Battle Royal Dome. Incineroar is a Pokémon Kukui can potentially use at the Battle Tree, while it is his signature Pokémon in the Pokémon League if the player chooses Rowlet as their starter in the Alola-based core series games. In addition, it is his signature Pokémon in the anime. Incineroar's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Ultra Sun.
