The guardhouse'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. | The guardhouse'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. | ||
When you go to register for a course the first time around, [[Whitney]] will appear, and will give Ethan/Lyra a jersey that they can dress into for competing in the courses. 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, and a prize counter that has items that can be purchased with the points you earned once a day, and changes each day. It is notable that several items involved with evolution such as the [[Evolutionary stones]] can be bought here. Once the [[National Dex]] is obtained, then the amount of prizes increases, with either new items or older items that can also be bought on other days. | |||
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.

The {{DL|Pokéathlon Dome|Salon Shop}}, located at the far right counter, allows for the points earned from competing in the different venues to be traded in for various items, with each item only available for purchase once per day. The item listing changes on a day-to-day basis. | The {{DL|Pokéathlon Dome|Salon Shop}}, located at the far right counter, allows for the points earned from competing in the different venues to be traded in for various items, with each item only available for purchase once per day.
