As part of the first class, Dendra explains the remaining concepts of the Training process and a physical class that seeks to exercise Trainers and see if they are worthy of the Tera Orb they have received.
Jacq also participates in the class and gives an additional exercise to each student, which consists of making reports and taking photos of wild Pokémon that each student interacts with.
Gym Leader challenge
As part of the Training, each Trainer is assigned to battle a Paldea League Gym Leader who matches their own aptitude. The allocated Gym Leaders are shown in the app that is installed by Jacq on the Rotom Phone of each participating Trainer.
Each Training session with a Gym Leader can be on two difficulties; basics and implementation. After passing the challenge, the corresponding Gym Leader rewards them with a stamp on their Rotom Phone.
- Basic: In battles in this module, students and Gym Leaders can only use one Pokémon. It is not necessary for the challenger to win the battle to be approved.
- Implementation: In the next module of Terastal Training, students have 2-on-2 battles against their respective Gym Leaders. In Roy's rematch with Ryme, a special exception was made as the match was changed into a 1-on-1 confrontation.
