Sinnoh International

"City of Joy"

Sinnoh International was formed in 1907.  It was the first club to form in a city that already had an established team.  Due to this, a rivalry between Sinnoh International and Jubilife 96 quickly sparked.  Since then, the two clubs have met a total of 186 times in the regular season, and have about split the series at 94-92 with 96 currently in the lead.  Inter, however, have more league titles with 7 to 96's 6. 

Despite historic success, Inter is now in League 2, and has been for 3 seasons, which is their longest tenure outside of League 1.

The kits are manufactures by Absol and the primary sponsor is Jubilife TV (JTV).

Royal Viridian FC

"The City of Evergreen"

Royal Viridian is among the oldest and winningest franchises in Indigo League history despite their current status in IRSL.  Their 11 Indigo League championships are behind only AC Saffron and Sootopolis. The club formed in 1897, and won its first championship in 1899.  From there they remained a top-level team until 1943 when they won their last.  in 1944 the team was bought out by a crime syndicate that had been running under the guise of a Pokémon Gym and casino.  They began funneling money from the team, which led to their major collapse into the bottom ranks of the Indigo League pyramid.  After the syndicate disbanded in 1996, the team was taken over by the new gym leader in Viridian City, Blue Oak.

The team’s primary sponsor is Evergreen Coffee.  The kits are manufactured by Tohjo.
