In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the island challenge is a way for {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to obtain [[Z-Crystal]]s, and are said to have been created in order to raise Trainers to love and protect the islands of [[Alola]] as well as the [[Human|people]] and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} who inhabit them, as explained in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]''. The challenges are made up of lesser trials which must be passed before challenging the [[Island Kahuna|island kahuna]] in a grand trial. These trials are not presided by [[Trial Captain]]s, and trialgoers are able to freely challenge a [[Totem Pokémon]] without having someone providing guidance or supervising them. Most Totem Pokémon are said to follow the lead of their island's [[Guardian deities|guardian deity]].

All trials seen so far work similarly to the [[Vast Poni Canyon]] trial from the {{pkmn|games}}, with {{pkmn|Trainer}}s being rewarded by the Totem Pokémon itself if successful in {{pkmn|battle}}. However, [[Hala]] contradicts this by noting that it is rare for a Totem Pokémon to directly give the Z-Crystal to the Trainer themselves. Another difference lies in the fact that completing all trials in an island is not required for a battle with the island kahuna; Trainers will earn the right to face off against a kahuna after completing just one trial.
