Alola is destined to be annexed by Unova

>>30740398
I actually think about that too. What if he was actually still butthurt about not being able to become trial captain like Guzma, but instead forming deliquent gang, he become prestigious researcher instead,and slowly replace ancient, unique culture of Alola with generic modern gym/league system? He already bring the league to Alola and get 2 influential Kahunas under his system. He will inevitably replace trial captains with gym leaders too and finally abolish the trial system altogether. He will finish what Guzma actually aimed for (before he was derailed by crazy milf), and everyone will praise and clap for him.
Also Nanu fucking knew this so he reject the E4 offer.

We need to dispel this fiction that professor Kukui doesn't know what he's doing, he knows exactly what he's doing.

>>30740398
Cue the story of Pokemon Sun 2 Moon 2/Sun Red Moon Blue/etc. I think its definitely going to go down the road of Urbanization being bad, even if good spirited. The league and the gyms are definitely being created in mind of the Tapus, ie giant battlegrounds as ritualistic places for offering favors to the Tapu, but I doubt Kukui has the farsight to see that introducing a league will cause way too much conflict with the Tapus as more and more cities need to be built and the Trial Grounds go abandonded. Not only will that piss off the Tapu, but that will also upset the balance as Totem Pokemon start to go unchecked and start attackong everything and anything on site. I wonder if Gym Alola can be the post game, with Alt Alola from the current Postgame being a Cosmogless Alols having drastic effects, like no Lycanroc Evo, a more prominent Necrozma, and perhaps the Ultra Beast being such a big threat because there is no way to approach ultra spacr that Trials are doubled down on trainers so that a proper training against the UBs system is put into place. And then Gym Alola, like I said post game, could show us Alola 2 years later wildly changed, showing us the wrongs of technological advancements. Could work, I guess.

>>30743330
>>want to fuck them and let them rape aloha because MUH KIDS

>This guy is basically the reason he built the league

It's not like Kukui did it all by himself.
All captains, kahunas and even simple trainers all agreed that having a League was a great idea. Not a single person in the whole region is against that.
So no, Kukui simply had a dream, a dream pretty much everyone was ok with.

Hence, blame all humans, not a single human.

Read the Eurogamer leak again. Think again to how it was originally going to release in Summer 2016. It's just an enhanced port they're gonna call a third version.

>>30742890
it would've been cool if Alola did the trainer's conference as the league replacement.

You face trainers in a Single Elimination tourney like in the Ashnime. So you face trainers Hau, Gladion, Acerola, Kahili, Hala, Olivia, and others till you get to the final round. The first time you make it through, you face Prof. Kukui and subsequent challenges in defending your title you can face others in the final match.

I think he secretly wanted to beat you and claim the throne himself. Bet just before entering the champions room he had gotten done battling the E4. Wanted to be a Red with you as his Blue. Dudes still butthurt after the weak ass Kanto E4 blasted his ass into oblivion.

Exactly.
Kukui isn't a nationalist or a racist, he sees people as individuals.

Kukui just wants Alola to become stronger and is willing to take risks, it's his nature

>countless rare and native Pokemon species
Like what?
The majority of the Alola Pokedex is nothing but trash and shitmons
