A '''Pokémon academy''' is a school where students and {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can learn more about {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Most beginning Trainers visit at least one of them, and common Trainers who study extensively at these locations are {{tc|Lass}}es, {{tc|Schoolkid}}s, and {{tc|Scientist}}s.

Pokémon academies are commonly found, quite conveniently, in a town or city very near to the {{player}}'s hometown. They are often referred to as a '''Trainers' School''' (Japanese: '''トレーナーズスクール''' ''Trainers' School'').


The Pokémon academy in [[Viridian City]] is visited by many beginning Trainers, and so is dedicated to teaching the basics of Pokémon to said inexperienced Trainers. Many Trainers that pass through Viridian tend to be beginning ones, which makes Viridian an ideal location for such an academy. In [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]], the academy has been replaced by the [[Trainer House]]. The academy in [[Violet City]], Earl's Pokémon School, is a place where students and beginning Trainers can learn more about Pokémon. It is run by [[Earl Dervish]], who can first be seen outside the [[Violet City Gym]] but will show the player the way to the school while twirling at every turn. Another of Earl's Academy are seen in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], in this case in [[White City]].

One of the bigger academies is situated in [[Hoenn]]'s [[Rustboro City]], named [[Pokémon Trainer's School]], of which [[Roxanne]] is a student. The [[Prestige Precept Center]] in [[Phenac City]], [[Orre]], can also be considered a Trainers' school, as this purpose is more fitting than an official [[Pokémon League]] Gym (due to a lack of an actual league in Orre).

Another Trainers' School appeared in ''[[DP126|Classroom Training!]]'', located in [[Snowpoint City]] in [[Sinnoh]]. The Gym Leader, [[Candice]], is one of the teachers there due to the amount of spare time she has. The main reason for the school is for children to learn the basics of handling Pokémon until the age of 10. However, the school also runs a special, practical course for older people who have obtained Pokémon in the past but for some reason had interrupted their journey. It was also revealed that both [[Zoey]] and [[Candice]] had attended this school when they were younger.
