Elite Four
After you have completed all the grand trials and all 7 standard trials in the Alola Region, you will learn that the Pokémon League that Kukui is creating is now complete and you can go to Mount Lanakila to compete in it. This league continues the new standard of allowing you to take on the Elite Four in whatever order you wish. They can be rematched afterwards at a higher level, but with a twist. Complete the league and the Pokémon you use will get a ribbon. Upon first completion, you will get the Island Challenge Completion stamp on your trainer passport and Pokémon up to Level 100 will obey you
