The '''island challenge''' (Japanese: '''島めぐり''' ''island-visiting'') is a rite of passage for burgeoning [[Pokémon Trainer]]s in the [[Alola]] [[region]]. Trainers can partake in these rites when they turn 11, which involve traveling through each of the four major islands of Alola and completing various '''trials''' (Japanese: '''試練''' ''trial'') on each. The goal of those taking the island challenge is to become the strongest Trainer, known as the island challenge champion. | The '''island challenge''' (Japanese: '''島めぐり''' ''island-visiting'') is a rite of passage for burgeoning [[Pokémon Trainer]]s in the [[Alola]] [[region]].

Participants in the island challenge are given an island challenge amulet to identify them. The island challenge consists of a number of trials on each of the Alola region's four islands, with each usually headed by a [[Trial Captain]]. Trials are not limited to [[Pokémon battle]]s; they may involve finding designated [[item]]s or a test of knowledge, among other tasks. Trials are all difficult tasks that require Trainers to prove themselves. To complete the trial, the Trainer must defeat a [[Totem Pokémon]] in an [[SOS Battle]]. It is stated that there are 7{{sup/7|SM}}/8{{sup/7|USUM}} trials active at any given time, though not all of them may be presided over by a Trial Captain. | Participants in the island challenge are given an island challenge amulet to identify them.

The final trial on each island is called the '''grand trial''' (Japanese: '''大試練''' ''grand trial''). In the grand trial, the Trainer must battle the [[Island Kahuna|island kahuna]]. If they complete an island's grand trial, they are recognized as having cleared all of that island's trials and can move on to the next island. | The final trial on each island is called the '''grand trial''' (Japanese: '''大試練''' ''grand trial'').
