>>54761662>How the hell do regional conferences even work? Do they just earn you the right to face the elite four and Champion?We can guess that much, obviously, but the ashnime's world building sucks eggs and has never actually answered this. For all we know champions and elite 4 are elected officials. while conference winners are just FoTM trainers.
>>54761835Yeah, but that still doesn't answer the question of why didn't Alain, or any other conference winner for that matter, challenge and replace their region's respective champions/elite 4.
Tobias, for example, should have been able to become champion easily. Cynthia would have stood no chance, if we go by JN power scaling where Cynthia was weak as sin and able to be defeated by a Lucario who had only two weeks of training.
