Pryce (& Dewgong)

This veteran Gym Leader with over 50 years experience is known as the Winter Trainer. He stays healthy with his daily routine of early morning Pokémon battling.

Appearance: Pryce is an bald old man with short white hair with three upper spiked fringe on front and two spikes in each sides, brown eyes and pale skinned. He usually has a displeased look on his face. Pryce supports himself with a gray cane, which has a brown top. Pryce wears a brown shirt, with the neck area having white color. He has a white scarf, a long blue jacket with azure buttons, some beige pants and brown shoes.

Personality A specialist of the Ice-type, he is known as "The Teacher of Winter's Harshness". Pryce is one of the oldest Gym Leaders trainers will face: he has been training Pokémon for over fifty years. The secret behind his power is his daily meditation under a waterfall. Pryce claims that this strengthens both his body and his mind.

Partner Pokémon: Dewgong.

Dewgong's appearance: Dewgong is a long, somewhat plump, completely white seal-like Pokémon. It has billowing fins. There is also a horn on its head that is useful for bashing through thick ice. It is somewhat just a more elegant version of Seel. Pryce's Dewgong is a male.

It swims through the ocean at a speed of eight knots, searching for Pokémon that will become its prey. It's especially fond of Wishiwashi.

Dewgong knows Ice Beam, Icy Wind, and Aurora Beam.

Ice Beam: A light blue ball of energy forms on Dewgong's horn or in front of its mouth. Then, multiple light blue or white beams of energy fire at the opponent, freezing it.

Icy Wind: Dewgong releases a wind with light blue sparkles in it from its mouth at the opponent, freezing anything it touches.

Aurora Beam: Dewgong forms a multicolored orb of energy in front of its mouth and fires a multicolored beam from the orb at the opponent.

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.
