The gate's northwestern exit leads to a short path where you'll meet [[Magnus]], an older man with a {{p|Poliwrath}}. He'll bring you to a new area called the [[Pokéathlon Dome]], which is where you can partake in the [[Pokéathlon]], a sports event that replaces Contests. There are five courses: Stamina, Power, Skill, Speed, and Jump, which correspond a Pokémon's five performance stats. In each course, three of your Pokémon will participate in three mini-games; each event will test two of your Pokémon's stats. There are a total of ten games in all that are divided throughout the courses. Like the Contests from previous games, all Pokémon are permitted to enter the games. A Pokémon's different formes will have different max stats, so make sure you pick the right forme for the right course. | The gate's northwestern exit leads to a short path where you'll meet [[Magnus]], an older man with a {{p|Poliwrath}}.

Unlike the contests, to update your {{ga|Trainer Card}}, instead of coming in first for all the courses, a certain record must be beaten for each game and by doing so a crown symbol by the records. There is also a linked Pokéathlon for multiple players. | ||
Outside of the building, many Trainers can be seen with their Pokémon, practicing for the Pokéathlon's various competitions. A woman on the far west side of the area will give away an {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Apriblender}} to those who have an {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Apricorn Box}}, while a man at a booth west of the building will sell Aprijuice, a type of drink that boosts one of the five performance stats. | Outside of the building, many Trainers can be seen with their Pokémon, practicing for the Pokéathlon's various competitions.
