Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP.
