'''Ilima''' (Japanese: '''イリマ''' ''Ilima'') is the [[Trial Captain]] of [[Melemele Island]]'s [[Verdant Cavern]]. He [[type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
==In the core series games==
Ilima is a graduate of the {{al|Trainers' School}} on {{rt|1|Alola}} and is admired as a hero by the students there. Some call him the "Prince of the Trainers' School". While he typically acts polite and dignified, he becomes a very different person in the midst of [[Pokémon battle]]s.
The {{player}} first meets Ilima alongside [[Professor Kukui]] in the Trainers' School after defeating the {{tc|Teacher}} there. He later appears at the Marina when two {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s disrupt his conversation with the player. After defeating the Grunts, he challenges the player to a battle.
Ilima later appears as the player's guide to their first trial in Verdant Cavern.
After clearing [[Hala]]'s grand trial{{sup/7|SM}}/becoming the {{pkmn|Champion}}{{sup/7|USUM}}, the player can visit the second floor of his house in the [[Hau'oli City]] Shopping District, where Ilima is in his room. He says he is researching on Pokémon battling, and brings the player to the Trainers' School, where he battles the player.
In {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, Ilima can be fought at [[Hau'oli Cemetery]] during [[Mina]]'s trial to earn the [[Orange Petal]]. In addition, after the player has defeated him in a battle during the post-game, he will give the player [[Ilima's Normalium Z|a piece of Normalium Z]] to be delivered to Verdant Cavern for new trial-goers. When the player tries to place the Z-Crystal on the pedestal in Totem's Den, the [[Totem Pokémon]] of Verdant Cavern will challenge them to a [[rematch]]. After the Totem is defeated, the player can place the Z-Crystal on its proper place.
According to his mother, Ilima used to study in the [[Kalos]] [[region]] in the past.
===Pokémon===
Ilima's Pokémon are kept in [[Ultra Ball]]s.

==In the games==
==Quotes==
Ilima appears in {{g|Sun and Moon}} as the {{player}}'s guide to their first trial in Verdant Cavern.
{{main|Ilima/Quotes}}


He is a graduate of the [[Pokémon academy|Trainers' School]] and is admired as a hero by the students there.
==In the anime==
<!--Do NOT add the assumption that he participated in the Lumiose Conference, it was not explicitly stated that he did.-->
===Main series===
[[File:Ilima anime.png|thumb|250px|Ilima in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Ilima first appeared in ''[[SM065|Turning Heads and Training Hard!]]''. In the past, [[Tupp]], a to-be member of [[Team Skull]], got annoyed with him when he began to draw groups of girls to him instead. Later in life, Ilima attended and graduated from the [[Pokémon School]], accomplishing a lot of milestone records; this earned him the nickname of "Pokémon School Prince". It was even rumored that he could make [[Samson Oak]]'s {{p|Komala}} open its eyes, but this ultimately turned out to be false, much to the disappointment of {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s class. After graduating, he went to [[Kalos]] to study abroad and even participated in the [[Kalos League]].
 
In the present day, Ilima battled {{DL|Eevee users|Eevee User Kagetora|Kagetora}} and won, earning him the [[Eevium Z]]. He later returned to the Pokémon School to say hello to Professor Kukui and Samson Oak, and was introduced to {{Ash}} and {{an|Lillie}}. After swimming with Ash and {{ashcl}}, Ilima showed them his [[Z-Ring]] and Eevium Z, and expressed his desire to get stronger with Eevee without needing to [[Evolution|evolve]] it. Ash, finding something in common with Ilima, challenged him to a {{pkmn|battle}} and he gladly accepted. Unfortunately, the two {{pkmn|Trainer}}s were interrupted by a gang of {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s, led by a vengeful Tupp. Ilima and Eevee defeated all of the Grunts by themselves, using a {{m|Last Resort}} boosted by {{m|Extreme Evoboost}} to send them flying away.
 
In ''[[SM066|Smashing with Sketch!]]'', Ilima taught Ash and his classmates how to play Pokémon Ping-Pong before participating in a [[Pokémon Ping-Pong tournament]] himself. He eventually came face to face with another expert Pokémon Ping-Pong player, [[Ikari]], in the finals. After an intense match, Ilima emerged victorious. Later that day, Ilima boarded a boat headed back to Kalos.
 
In ''[[SM128|League Offenders and Defenders!]]'', Ilima returned to Alola to participate in the [[Manalo Conference]]. Ash attempted to greet him, only to be knocked over by Ilima's fanbase.
 
In ''[[SM129|Battle Royal 151!]]'', Ilima was among the 151 Trainers taking part in the [[Battle Royal]] preliminary round of the Manalo Conference. Using Eevee, Ilima was able to defeat all of the Pokémon that Team Skull used against him before going up against [[Plumeria]] and her {{p|Salazzle}}. Ilima was ultimately able to defeat Plumeria and was among the 16 Trainers still standing at the end of the round. The match-ups for the next round revealed that he would be battling [[Guzma]]. Ilima was also revealed to be the favorite to win the [[Alola League]].
 
In ''[[SM130|Battling Besties!]]'', Ilima went up against Guzma, using his {{p|Kangaskhan}} to battle Guzma's {{p|Scizor}}. Despite Ilima [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]] Kangaskhan, Scizor was able to defeat its opponent through strategy, thus eliminating Ilima from the competition, much to the dismay of his fan girls.
 
Ilima reappeared in a flashback in ''[[SM137|The Wisdom Not to Run!]]''.
 
In ''[[SM139|Enter the Champion!]]'', Ilima attended the award ceremony for the winner, only for it to be interrupted when a {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Manalo Stadium Guzzlord|Guzzlord}} arrived at the stadium through an [[Ultra Wormhole]].
 
====Character====
Ilima is polite and charming. He is also multi-talented in an array of sports and a {{pkmn|battle}} strategist at heart. Despite having graduated from the [[Pokémon School]], Ilima's reputation precedes him and his many achievement awards still decorate [[Samson Oak|Principal Oak]]'s office. Girls' hearts are often sent aflutter by Ilima's arrival. However his pleasant nature can be grating for some, namely [[Tupp]] of [[Team Skull]] and Pokémon Ping Pong rival [[Ikari]].
 
He believes in being empathetic to bring out the true strengths of his Pokémon. In particular, his {{p|Eevee}}, who he refuses to [[Evolution|evolve]] against its wishes. After Eevee was injured by [[Plumeria]]'s {{p|Salazzle}} during the [[Battle Royal]] preliminary round of the [[Manalo Conference]], Ilima refused to let it battle until it was fully healed.

[[File:Ilima Adventures.png|thumb|170px|Ilima in Pokémon Adventures]]
Ilima debuted in ''[[PASM16|A Photoshoot and the Abandoned Thrifty Megamart]]''. He was first mentioned by [[Mallow]], who considered asking him and [[Acerola]] to join her, [[Kiawe]], and [[Lana]] in raiding [[Team Skull]]'s [[Po Town|base]]. He first appeared in person at the [[Melemele Island]] [[Pokémon academy|Trainers' School]], where he agreed to help Mallow and the others. Afterward, he met with [[Hau]], who asked to join the [[Trial Captain]]s confront Team Skull. The two traveled to Po Town, where they met with the others. Their presence alerted Team Skull's boss, [[Guzma]], who demanded to know why his base was being invaded. When the Captains revealed they only wanted to talk, Guzma agreed on the condition they made it to him first. He then summoned a {{p|Pheromosa}}, {{p|Celesteela}}, and {{p|Guzzlord}} and had them attack the Captains and Hau. Despite their best efforts, Ilima and the others were completely outmatched by the rampaging [[Ultra Beast]]s.
 
In ''[[PASM18|Confusion and Monsters from Another World]]'', {{adv|Sun}} arrived at Po Town, only to get caught up in the commotion. Annoyed the Captains were still fighting, Guzma revealed a {{p|Cosmog}} and had it open more [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. [[Gladion]] appeared, demanding to know where Guzma got the Cosmog and Ultra Beasts from. Revealing his true aim is to destroy Ultra Beasts, Gladion battled the beasts Guzma summoned with his {{TP|Gladion|Type: Null}}. To everyone's shock, Gladion also revealed the [[Aether Foundation]]'s president, [[Lusamine]], was the one who gave Guzma Cosmog as part of her plan to create a paradise filled with nothing but Ultra Beasts and herself. Eventually, the beasts broke out of Po Town's barrier, allowing them to wreak havoc on all of [[Ula'ula Island]]. Ilima and the other Captains headed off to various locations to evacuate any innocent civilians caught in the beasts' attacks.
 
In ''[[PASM26|Adventure in the Dark Dimension]]'', the Trial Captains and [[island kahuna]]s were revealed to have spent six months on [[Exeggutor Island]] {{pkmn|training}} to prepare for another clash with the Ultra Beasts. After their training was finished, [[Sophocles]] and [[Molayne]] took everyone to [[Mount Lanakila]], where a wormhole had opened up earlier. Shortly after they arrived, their ship was attacked by a group of Aether Foundation Employees and their Ultra Beasts. With the [[Z-Move]]s they had acquired, Ilima and the others managed to defeat the Ultra Beasts.

Ilima (Japanese: イリマ Ilima) is the Trial Captain of Melemele Island's Verdant Cavern. He specializes in Normal-type Pokémon.

In the core series games

Ilima is a graduate of the Trainers' School on Route 1 and is admired as a hero by the students there. Some call him the "Prince of the Trainers' School". While he typically acts polite and dignified, he becomes a very different person in the midst of Pokémon battles.

The player first meets Ilima alongside Professor Kukui in the Trainers' School after defeating the Teacher there. He later appears at the Marina when two Team Skull Grunts disrupt his conversation with the player. After defeating the Grunts, he challenges the player to a battle.

Ilima later appears as the player's guide to their first trial in Verdant Cavern.

After clearing Hala's grand trialSM/becoming the ChampionUSUM, the player can visit the second floor of his house in the Hau'oli City Shopping District, where Ilima is in his room. He says he is researching on Pokémon battling, and brings the player to the Trainers' School, where he battles the player.

In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Ilima can be fought at Hau'oli Cemetery during Mina's trial to earn the Orange Petal. In addition, after the player has defeated him in a battle during the post-game, he will give the player a piece of Normalium Z to be delivered to Verdant Cavern for new trial-goers. When the player tries to place the Z-Crystal on the pedestal in Totem's Den, the Totem Pokémon of Verdant Cavern will challenge them to a rematch. After the Totem is defeated, the player can place the Z-Crystal on its proper place.

According to his mother, Ilima used to study in the Kalos region in the past.

Main series

Ilima in the anime

Ilima first appeared in Turning Heads and Training Hard!. In the past, Tupp, a to-be member of Team Skull, got annoyed with him when he began to draw groups of girls to him instead. Later in life, Ilima attended and graduated from the Pokémon School, accomplishing a lot of milestone records; this earned him the nickname of "Pokémon School Prince". It was even rumored that he could make Samson Oak's Komala open its eyes, but this ultimately turned out to be false, much to the disappointment of Professor Kukui's class. After graduating, he went to Kalos to study abroad and even participated in the Kalos League.

In the present day, Ilima battled Kagetora and won, earning him the Eevium Z. He later returned to the Pokémon School to say hello to Professor Kukui and Samson Oak, and was introduced to Ash and Lillie. After swimming with Ash and his classmates, Ilima showed them his Z-Ring and Eevium Z, and expressed his desire to get stronger with Eevee without needing to evolve it. Ash, finding something in common with Ilima, challenged him to a battle and he gladly accepted. Unfortunately, the two Trainers were interrupted by a gang of Team Skull Grunts, led by a vengeful Tupp. Ilima and Eevee defeated all of the Grunts by themselves, using a Last Resort boosted by Extreme Evoboost to send them flying away.

In Smashing with Sketch!, Ilima taught Ash and his classmates how to play Pokémon Ping-Pong before participating in a Pokémon Ping-Pong tournament himself. He eventually came face to face with another expert Pokémon Ping-Pong player, Ikari, in the finals. After an intense match, Ilima emerged victorious. Later that day, Ilima boarded a boat headed back to Kalos.

In League Offenders and Defenders!, Ilima returned to Alola to participate in the Manalo Conference. Ash attempted to greet him, only to be knocked over by Ilima's fanbase.

In Battle Royal 151!, Ilima was among the 151 Trainers taking part in the Battle Royal preliminary round of the Manalo Conference. Using Eevee, Ilima was able to defeat all of the Pokémon that Team Skull used against him before going up against Plumeria and her Salazzle. Ilima was ultimately able to defeat Plumeria and was among the 16 Trainers still standing at the end of the round. The match-ups for the next round revealed that he would be battling Guzma. Ilima was also revealed to be the favorite to win the Alola League.

In Battling Besties!, Ilima went up against Guzma, using his Kangaskhan to battle Guzma's Scizor. Despite Ilima Mega Evolving Kangaskhan, Scizor was able to defeat its opponent through strategy, thus eliminating Ilima from the competition, much to the dismay of his fan girls.

Ilima reappeared in a flashback in The Wisdom Not to Run!.

In Enter the Champion!, Ilima attended the award ceremony for the winner, only for it to be interrupted when a Guzzlord arrived at the stadium through an Ultra Wormhole.

Character

Ilima is polite and charming. He is also multi-talented in an array of sports and a battle strategist at heart. Despite having graduated from the Pokémon School, Ilima's reputation precedes him and his many achievement awards still decorate Principal Oak's office. Girls' hearts are often sent aflutter by Ilima's arrival. However his pleasant nature can be grating for some, namely Tupp of Team Skull and Pokémon Ping Pong rival Ikari.

He believes in being empathetic to bring out the true strengths of his Pokémon. In particular, his Eevee, who he refuses to evolve against its wishes. After Eevee was injured by Plumeria's Salazzle during the Battle Royal preliminary round of the Manalo Conference, Ilima refused to let it battle until it was fully healed.

Ilima in Pokémon Adventures

Ilima debuted in A Photoshoot and the Abandoned Thrifty Megamart. He was first mentioned by Mallow, who considered asking him and Acerola to join her, Kiawe, and Lana in raiding Team Skull's base. He first appeared in person at the Melemele Island Trainers' School, where he agreed to help Mallow and the others. Afterward, he met with Hau, who asked to join the Trial Captains confront Team Skull. The two traveled to Po Town, where they met with the others. Their presence alerted Team Skull's boss, Guzma, who demanded to know why his base was being invaded. When the Captains revealed they only wanted to talk, Guzma agreed on the condition they made it to him first. He then summoned a Pheromosa, Celesteela, and Guzzlord and had them attack the Captains and Hau. Despite their best efforts, Ilima and the others were completely outmatched by the rampaging Ultra Beasts.

In Confusion and Monsters from Another World, Sun arrived at Po Town, only to get caught up in the commotion. Annoyed the Captains were still fighting, Guzma revealed a Cosmog and had it open more Ultra Wormholes. Gladion appeared, demanding to know where Guzma got the Cosmog and Ultra Beasts from. Revealing his true aim is to destroy Ultra Beasts, Gladion battled the beasts Guzma summoned with his Type: Null. To everyone's shock, Gladion also revealed the Aether Foundation's president, Lusamine, was the one who gave Guzma Cosmog as part of her plan to create a paradise filled with nothing but Ultra Beasts and herself. Eventually, the beasts broke out of Po Town's barrier, allowing them to wreak havoc on all of Ula'ula Island. Ilima and the other Captains headed off to various locations to evacuate any innocent civilians caught in the beasts' attacks.

In Adventure in the Dark Dimension, the Trial Captains and island kahunas were revealed to have spent six months on Exeggutor Island training to prepare for another clash with the Ultra Beasts. After their training was finished, Sophocles and Molayne took everyone to Mount Lanakila, where a wormhole had opened up earlier. Shortly after they arrived, their ship was attacked by a group of Aether Foundation Employees and their Ultra Beasts. With the Z-Moves they had acquired, Ilima and the others managed to defeat the Ultra Beasts.
