We Rise and Fall

When the newly-minted Professor Sonia sets out to write a book on the truth she's helped discover behind Galar's true protectors, you end up roped in on the project as a researcher, promising to use your status as Champion to access some of Galar's most lucrative books on the region's history. It's not long before your search takes you to the Motostoke Library, where you meet the ever-burning man of fire, Kabu, for the first time since your Gym Challenge. What you don't expect is to feel some chemistry with the man - or to learn that he's been on a losing streak since you became Champion, and is at risk of being demoted to the Minor Leagues again. That, you decide, is something you can't let happen - and, you think, you're just the person to help him.
