Trainer Lodge

The Trainer Lodge

The Trainer Lodge (Japanese: トレーナーズサロン Trainer's Salon) is a location in Pokemon Masters EX introduced in August 2022 which enables the player character to interact with other sync pairs. Increasing friendship levels with sync pairs rewards the player with items including Certificates of Excellence, while achieving a friendship level of 100 unlocks a new Pokémon to pair with the guest Trainer. Only a select group of sync pairs can currently be interacted with in the Trainer Lodge, with Rosa available as the default Trainer for the tutorial.

The Trainer Lodge is unlocked after completing Main Story Chapter 1.

Gameplay

Interactions

The player character starts the interaction by initiating a chat with a Trainer, and is given three topics of discussion to choose from. The Trainer's response will determine the number of points awarded:

• super exciting topic: 10 points
• exciting topic: 7 points
• interesting topic: 5 points

The player continues to choose one of three discussion topics until the Trainer's attention wanes. Attention will drop with each topic chosen after the second topic. The attention level at which the interaction ends appears to be random.

Topics are associated with one of seven categories: Pokemon, Items, Friends, Hobbies, Fashion, Places, and Other. Each Trainer will have a hot topic from one of these categories for each interaction, and choosing an interaction of their hot topic will provide extra points. Selecting a hot topic also reduces the drop in attention by half, and can help the Trainer to reach max vibes. Max vibes is a state that lasts for two topic selections, and once reached, the Trainer's attention will not drop, the interaction will not end, and friendship points are doubled. If the Trainer's level is high enough (estimated at level 30 or above) there is a chance that the hot topic will be revealed at the start of the interaction.

A gift can be given to the Trainer to restore attention, refresh topics, and multiply friendship points. Gifts can be purchased in the Lodge Exchange and are specific to each sync pair. These come in standard, good, and awesome forms, with more valuable gifts giving greater boosts.

Once the interaction ends, the friendship level with the Trainer will increase depending on the friendship points earned. The player can interact up to three times per day with the same or other sync pairs in the Trainer Lodge. Players can also purchase Intraction Counts to increase the number of interactions that can be performed each day. All Interaction Counts can be used at once which will mutliply the friendship points depending on the number of interactions used (e.g. using up two Interaction Counts at once will double the points after completing the interaction).

The location of the interaction can be chosen prior to the chat, with various locations unlocked with increasing friendship levels. Help items can also be used before the interaction to provide boosts to the friendship points gained. These can be purchased at the Lodge Exchange, and can randomly be given by Trainers in the lodge when greeted. Other items that the player may be gifted by guest Trainers include Lodge Stones, 1★ Friend Keys, Fiery / Soothing / Wistful Stones, Extracts, Co-op Sync Orbs, Level-Up Manuals, Power-Ups, Move Candy Coins, and 5★ Scout Tickets. The quality of items received by greeting a Trainer will improve as that Trainer's friendship level increases.

• Lv 200 - Green
• Lv 300 - Blue

Friendship Level-Up Rewards

Various rewards are earned when leveling up sync pairs, including Lodge Stones at every level (10 each level) which can be used to exchange for items and sync pairs in the Lodge Exchange. Reaching levels 10 and 30 unlock Friendship Stories with the Trainer, while levels 20 and 40 unlock Friend and Story Snapshots of the Trainer respectively. Increasing the level to 100 unlocks an additional Pokémon for the guest Trainer to pair with. Duplicates of this new sync pair (to raise sync move level) can be purchased in the Lodge Exchange with Lodge Stones.

Trainer photos and Friendship Stories can be viewed in the Scrapbook. Photos are given a default Bronze Frame, with Silver, Gold, Rainbow, and Special Frames successively unlocked by increasing the sync pair's move level from two to five. Raising the sync pair's potential to 6★ EX unlocks a holo foil texture to the photo.

Levels past 100 will not have special milestone rewards - they will only grant the standard 10 Lodge Stones per level.

Expeditions

Three Trainers on an Expedition

Players can send several sync pairs on expeditions (excluding the player character) to explore various areas of Pasio and obtain items useful for improving Trainer interactions. The Expedition Skills of each team member determines the Discovery Level for four categories of items that can be obtained: Fiery Crystals, Soothing Crystals, Wistful Crystals, and Rare Caches (chests that can contain rare items including Lodge Stones and 5★ Power-Ups). The Discovery Level of each item category can range from 0 to 10, with higher levels increasing the number and rarity of Expedition Rewards obtained.

On occasion, a Cheer On icon can be displayed above a Trainer on the Expedition Team, which increases the Discovery Levels of all categories by 1 for 12 hours. Expedition Items can also be used to raise the team's Discovery Level. Only one Expedition Item can be used at a time.

Up to two Expedition Teams can be created concurrently. Team A will automatically have a base Discovery Level of 1 for Fiery and Soothing Crystals, while Team B will have a base Discovery Level of 1 for Wistful Crystals and Rare Caches. Expedition teams are initially capped at three sync pairs, which can be increased to six by purchasing Expedition Team Slot +1 in the Lodge Exchange.

Poké Balls can randomly appear at Expedition sites, which when opened will contain an item including Tomes, 3★ Level-Up Manuals, Co-op Sync Orbs, Big Pearls, 1★ Friend Keys, and Lodge Stones.

Expedition Rewards

Expedition Rewards are found every minute, which can be accumulated to a total of 30,000 items before no further items are discovered. The player may claim these rewards at any time.
