I remember the DP sub said the winner of the regional conference can enter the regional champions league... is it also true in Japanese language? @Dephender

Ash won the Manalo conference but champions league do not exist in Alola.

Yes, and Ash is now the first Champion of the Alola Region. That means that the winner of the next Manalo Conference can battle against Ash for the title, unless they create the E4 before of that.

Kukui was basically just a one-round Champion League for the Alola region. The real question is, is Satoshi Alola's Shirona/Daigo or did he return that duty to Kukui before setting off home to Masara Town? Or can Satoshi now use the title of "Alola Champion" as a bargaining chip in battles?

Easygoing Luxray.
Kukui has no business as a champion/winner since he was simply an exhibition match. You can't just organize an event and call yourself the big cheese when you just made yourself the extra match that has no stakes to it. If anything, Gladion is the next one in line, but...he's not in the region either.

So it's either Kiawe or Guzma as the winner/champion by default.

In the anime context, Kukui was the strongest native trainer in Alola currently, since he was revealed surprisingly to be Masked Royale.

Well, too bad, 'cause Kukui did so. He also has the skill to back that spit up.

We finally got our staff list and a slightly updated summary:

Satoshi and Go have come to Melemele Island in the Alola region to get an "Alola Form" Nassy! Satoshi goes around reuniting with Professor Kukui, the students from the Pokémon School he used to attend, as well as his Pokémon. But since this is Go's first time meeting them all, he's a bit nervous, and during the welcoming party that's held for the two at the Pokémon School, Satoshi's classmate Kaki challenges him to a battle, saying he'll "make sure this guy is a fitting rival for Satoshi"! Go decides to accept the challenge!!

So where is Raboot gonna evolve?
Click to expand...
I think it will evolve in a battle with Kiawe, I mean Poke fan highlighted this battle as well as the rematch with Bea and both episodes are more important then the fossil episode and we also know that both Cinderrace and Lucario are coming soon. So this episode is the perfect surprise for them to pull off. I could be wrong but I think it makes perfect sense for Raboot to evolve here.
