>>38280592I like to think he want on a vacation to Alola to get a break from the stress of his E4 duties. Then when he was there he found out about the battle tree (which he assumed he'd absolutely dominate) only to be beaten by some literal island who.
He can't over being beaten so he continues to extend his holiday until he has a chance to beat you again but it never happens. Eventually he gets replaced as an E4 member by Marlon.
