Partner Pokémon: Haxorus.

Haxorus's appearance: Haxorus is an enormous, tall bipedal reptilian Pokémon that possesses traits of both dinosaurs and dragons. Its body is powerfully built all around, and heavily armored with thick pale green and black scales. Its claws on both its hands and feet are red. Haxorus has a long segmented scaly neck, small red eyes, and a beak-like mouth. Two razor-sharp double-edged red and black tusks protrude from either side of its mouth. It has a thick, powerful green tail with a black tip. Iris' Haxorus is female.

Haxorus are kind but can be relentless when defending territory. They challenge foes with tusks that can cut steel.

Haxorus knows Dragon Claw and Outrage.

Dragon Claw: A light-purple aura forms around each of Haxorus' hands and they turn into a claw-like shape. Haxorus then strikes the opponent with the claws.

Outrage: Haxorus's eyes glow red and its body briefly becomes surrounded in a red aura. It then repeatedly slashes the opponent with its tusks. After the attack is over, Haxorus becomes confused.

Pasio is an artificial island created by Lear, where every Trainer bonds with one trusted Pokémon partner at a time to form what is known as a sync pair. These sync pairs fight together in Pasio’s signature 3-on-3 team battles. At the heart of the island is the Pokémon Masters League (PML), a grand tournament featuring Gym Leaders, Elite Four members, Champions, and other notable Trainers from every region. To qualify, participants must defeat PML Leaders across Pasio and earn five badges while adventuring with their partnered Pokémon. Centra City is the island’s largest hub, hosting a Pokémon Center complete with a shop and café. Other major locations include the Battle Villa, a multi-floor challenge facility for endurance-based combat, and several specialized arenas scattered across the island. The most prestigious battleground is the Champion Stadium, where the final rounds of the PML are fought. Meanwhile, the Trainer Lodge serves as a social space where Trainers gather, interact, and strengthen their partnerships.
