Rika

Rika is a young slend er woman with red eyes and long green hair in a low ponytail and a long cowlick. For clothing, she wears a gray button-up shirt, a black necktie with a brown tip, black pants with suspenders, brown shoes and matching black gloves with Paldea League's logo. She wears silver triangle-shaped ear piercing and earrings and is shown wearing black square glasses when she is working as the receptionist of Paldea League. On top of her duties as an Elite Four member, Rika works under Geeta as her assistant, and has a laid-back, tomboyish personality. She calls the player "kiddo" as a nickname. She serves as the receptionist for the Pokémon League, interviewing the player during the first part of the Champion Assessment. She is the first of the Elite Four to be faced. Later, after the player becomes a Champion, she observes their battle against Nemona in Mesagoza.

The player must answer the interview questions correctly in the Champion Assessment in order to be able to challenge the Elite Four. Any incorrect answer results in the player being kicked out immediately, and the player must restart the interview from the beginning.
