Description	This Ground-type specialist is the first of the Paldea region’s Elite Four that challengers face. There is a considerable gap between her persona when she interviews challengers and her usual personality.

Rika (Japanese: チリ Chili) is a Pokémon Trainer in Pokémon Masters EX, based on the character of the same name in the core series games. She forms a sync pair with Clodsire. This pair can be obtained through a Poké Fair sync pair scout beginning on April 26, 2024. This pair can be raised to 6★ EX since it first released.

Rika also forms a sync pair with Whiscash. This pair can be obtained by reaching Friendship Level 100 with Rika in the Trainer Lodge beginning on May 1, 2024. This pair can be raised to 6★ EX since it first released, though this pair lacks an EX style.
