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 Leaders 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.
