Trainer House

The Trainer House allows challengers to battle a certain opponent under controlled conditions. The default opponent is Cal, who uses the final forms of the Johto starter Pokémon. However, if you have used the Mystery Gift function, the opponent will be the last person with whom you interacted, with the same Pokémon, moves, and items. The number of battles is limited to one per day.

Blue is away too, but his sister Daisy will offer to groom one of your Pokémon every day, from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Grooming is an important process for obtaining new Pokémon like Espeon and Umbreon.
