A '''Pokémon journey''' is a quest undertaken by a {{pkmn|Trainer}} to learn to live and work with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. | A '''Pokémon journey''' is a quest undertaken by a {{pkmn|Trainer}} to learn to live and work with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. In the anime, a person's Pokémon journey can begin as early as the age of 10, when they can first legally apply for a [[Pokémon Trainer's license]]. It is at this point that a [[Pokémon Professor]] or other League-sanctioned official can give them a [[starter Pokémon]] native to their own region, though many people befriend other Pokémon prior to being legally able to be Trainers. | ||
Pokémon journeys have many different possibilities, with some Trainers choosing to gather a [[region]]'s [[Badge]]s from its [[Gym|Pokémon Gyms]], their ultimate goal being the [[Pokémon League]]. For these Trainers, strategy is key. Other Trainers instead choose to become {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s, gathering [[Ribbon]]s by competing in [[Pokémon Contest]]s with the goal of winning the [[Grand Festival]]. Some other Trainers may choose to become {{pkmn|Performer}}s and compete in [[Pokémon Showcase]]s with the goal of being the {{DL|Pokémon Performer|Kalos Queen}}. Others journey in order to learn about and be proficient about certain [[type]]s of Pokémon while some may choose to journey to pursue certain professions like [[Pokémon breeding]], {{pkmn|watcher|Pokémon watching}}, and {{pkmn|Stylist|Pokémon styling}}. Regardless of the reason behind the journey, Trainers must learn to work in all sorts of circumstances to become the best in their field. | Pokémon journeys have many different possibilities, with some Trainers choosing to gather a [[region]]'s [[Badge]]s from its [[Gym|Pokémon Gyms]], their ultimate goal being the [[Pokémon League]].
