Aevium League

**Whoa there, buckaroo!**This page contains some pretty **heavy spoilers** for the game and might ruin the surprise for some things for you, so continue reading at your own risk!

**The Aevium League** is the league challenge the Protagonist takes on when travelling through the Aevium region. The league is relatively young but is massive in size with 18 gyms, an Elite 8 and a Champion, and even has a reserve system for when a Gym Leader becomes unavailable, with many reserve leaders coming from Grand Dream City. As of V.13, it is possible to obtain a maximum of 15 Gym Badges.

### Gym leaders

These are the known Gym leaders established in the League and the respective type they specialize in. Not all of them are fought however (usually the result of story circumstances), and a Reserve leader is fought in their place instead.

* Venam (Poison)
* Keta (Fighting)
* Melia (Normal, was scouted to fill the position but disappeared before she could get officially registered)
* Narcissa (Ghost)
* Valarie (Water)
* Crawli (Bug)
* Kreiss (Ice, not fought but gives you the badge)
* Amber (Fire)
* Erick (Electric)
* Flora (Grass. Depending on story branching, Flora may or may not be fought for a Gym battle)
* Lavender (Psychic, not fought)
* Talon (Flying, not fought)
* Adam (Rock)
* Ryland (Ground)
* Saki (Steel)
* Damien (Dragon)

### Reserve leaders

These are the reserve leaders that fill in the spot of a gym leader when they become unavailable for one reason or another, or are fought instead of the actual Gym leader under other circumstances.

* Texen (Fighting)
* Marianette (Normal, but is not officially registered as a Reserve leader)
* **Melia** (Normal, currently registered as a reserve leader)
* Spector (Ghost)
* Angie (Ice, but is not officially registered as a Reserve leader)
* Florin (Grass, fought in place of Flora depending on story branches)
* Puppet Master (Psychic, but is not officially registered as a Reserve leader)
* Souta (Flying, but is not officially registered as a Reserve leader)

### Elite 8

The Elite 8 are the most skilled trainers working for the League. While it has been established through information given outside of the game that the player is able to meet six of them in the current version of the game, the identity of only five members has been established.

* Alexandra (The top ranking Elite 8 member, currently serving as Champion of the Aevium League)
* Tesla
* Karen
* Jolene
* Dylan

According to Alexandra's narrative of events that occurred after Storm-9, it is known that Tesla, Karen, Dylan and Jolene are among the founding members of the League and served as members of the original Elite 4 of the region. The Elite was further expanded to help maintain stability in the region against Madame X's plans.

### Other affiliates

These are people involved with the league, but do not fulfill a position as a Gym leader, Reserve leader or Elite 8 member, and work behind the scenes instead.

* Amanda (The League's scout, responsible for both handling registries of new trainers wishing to take on the league and scouting for powerful trainers to fill in the positions of Gym leader or Reserve leader.)
* Jan (Works behind the scenes to do most of the paperwork related to the league and acts as the game's Gym guide character in most cases, giving the player advice on how to approach the upcoming gym fight.)
* Zumi (Assists behind the scenes with managing the league, but seems to be helping more on the technical side of things rather than being as involved as Amanda or Jan.)
