III - PROFESSIONS

~ For all the things you never knew you wanted to know. ~

There are a number of professions available to residents in the vicinity of Laokia. However, this chapter will only detail the professions available to travelers who wish to train and care for Pokemon and eventually make their way to challenge the very best in their chosen field. Certain restrictions are placed on travelers in the regions, both for their own safety and for general order. Residents native to the regions may go about mostly as they please, though even they require permits to access certain areas. For travelers, these permits come as the result of achieving a certain rank or goal within their profession.

III ( A ) - TRAINER

~ For all the things you never knew you wanted to know. ~

Trainers challenge gyms to test their skills at Pokemon battles and earn badges to advance in their profession.

Requirements
Age 10+

Exclusive Perks
Battle Houses, Trainer Shops

Restrictions
Trainers are restricted from capturing Pokemon at the specified level until they obtain the corresponding number of badges. This restriction is coded into the mechanisms of the Pokeballs, Pokedex, and PC preventing trainers from circumventing it. Master Balls, Cherish Balls, Safari Balls, and Park Balls do not have this restriction and can be used on Pokemon regardless of level.

Upon reaching a certain level, Pokemon will no longer gain experience normally unless their trainer has the corresponding number of badges. Experience gained from events and under special circumstances is not affected by this restriction.

Pokemon not captured by the trainer (such as those obtained in trade, through a special event, or from a transfer) will not respect and obey trainers once reaching a certain level unless the trainer has the corresponding number of badges. Some Pokemon may be exempt to this, that information would be displayed in the 'obtained' section of their stats.

• 1 Badge- Lv. 30
• 2 Badges- Lv. 40
