Drayton

is a character appearing in . He is one of the members of the Blueberry Academy BB League's Elite Four, specializing in types.
==Appearance==
Drayton is a young man with short spiky hair, as well as a long single hair tuft with a dark blue-colored streak, as well as a pair of yellow eyes. He wears a white t-shirt that is covered by a black/gold tracksuit, which has the design of a gold, aggressive-looking dog on the back. He also wears a purple cape tied down around his waist.
==Personality==
Drayton is very laid back and relaxed, often living a "lazy" lifestyle; Carmine states that he had been repeating classes for three years. Despite his seemingly lazy exterior, he does care about his friends and is a proficient trainer; his fellow member Lacey, who has an advantage over him with -types, has not beaten him once.
Whenever something disappoints or embarrasses him, his long hair tuft and the smaller tufts droop down.
==Biography==
Drayton is the grandson of Drayden and a second-year student, though his laziness has made him repeat the class three years in a row. He was originally the champion of the Blueberry League, but after Kieran returned from the Kitakami field trip, he was overthrown and relegated into the Elite Four.
When the player arrives at Blueberry Academy as a transfer student, he quickly befriends them and even recommends that they participate in the Elite Four League, despite the rules stating that only official students could participate. After a "cafeteria date" in which he brings the other members and the Champion, he proposes that they allow the player to join; Crispin supports the idea, while Lacey and Amarys disapprove. Kieran ends up acting as the tiebreaker, wanting to defeat them after his losses in Kitakami, thus allowing them to join the league. 
After each Elite Four member is defeated, Drayton checks up on them. When the player registers for his trial, he covers the application cost for them. In his trial, he tasks the player with defeating three fellow club members with Pokémon caught by themselves in the Terarium. Once the last member is defeated, he dismisses them and battles the player, but loses. He gives them the Dragon Cheer TM upon defeat.
Upon arriving at the arena, Drayton informs the player as to why he was helping them; he remembered how feeble Kieran was in the past, but noted his sudden change when he returned from the Kitakami trip, particularly pushing both himself and others around. He had tried to battle him to snap him out of it but failed, thus he places faith in the player to break him out of his trance. After defeating Kieran, Drayton congratulates the two on a good battle before sarcastically mocking Kieran for his loss. He then hands the player a Master Ball for becoming the new champion before he is called over the system alongside the player, Carmine and Kieran. He declines to join the trip to Paldea to explore Area Zero, claiming the League is in shambles, but Carmine calls him out on his claim, knowing that he just doesn't want to go. Nonetheless, he wishes them luck on the trip.
The player can later find Drayton in the League Club Room, where they have rematches with him. 
== Pokémon ==
Note: Archaludon in the rematch has Draco Meteor instead of Dragon Pulse.
==Trivia==
*Unlike his fellow Elite Four members who keep their Pokémon in special Poké Balls, Drayden does not; he keeps them in normal Poké Balls. Likewise, barring Lacey's normal team, he is the only Elite Four member who lacks a -typing secondary Pokémon; his non-specialty Pokémon, Sceptile, is a -type.
*Drayton's trial, along with the subsequent Gym fight, has several similarities with Raihan's trial:
**Both have the player fight three Trainers, all of whom follow a Pokémon typing/trend unrelated to their leader. Likewise, they spectate each battle.
**Both follow the Double Battle format.
**Both have use Duraludon evolution line as their ace Pokémon.
