Every Team has its Leader. All three of Leaders are assistants of Professor Willow.
Trainers of any team (or even not in any team) can challenge any of the Team Leaders to battle, across three leagues for each leader with varying difficulty.
Candela
Candela is the leader of Team Valor. Her skin is dark and she has dark brown hair and hazel eyes. She wears a white coat with some red details, black tights and white shoes.
Candela's introduction
Pokémon are stronger than humans, and they're warmhearted, too!
I'm researching ways to enhance Pokémon's natural power in the pursuit of true strength.
There's no doubt that the Pokémon our team have trained are the strongest in battle!
Are you ready?"
Blanche
Blanche is the leader of Team Mystic. Their skin is olive and they have white hair and green eyes. They wear light-blue coat and their clothes are mainly blue and white with pink accents. As seen on Team selection screen, Blanche is slightly shorter than the other two leaders.
Blanche's introduction
The wisdom of Pokémon is immeasurably deep.
I am researching why it is that they evolve.
My team?
With our calm analysis of every situation, we can't lose!"
Spark
Spark is the leader of Team Instinct. His skin is white and he has blonde hair and blue eyes. He wears an orange hoodie and black jacket and his clothes are mainly black and orange with some yellow details.
Spark's introduction
Pokémon are creatures with excellent intuition.
I bet the secret to their intuition is related to how they're hatched.
Come on and join my team!
You never lose when you trust your instincts!"

There were original line-arts of Team Leaders before their 3D model representations were added to the game. Since Fashion Week 2022 the Team Leaders received a different look until they were reverted at the start of Season 9: Mythical Wishes.
