Each level has a lectures part where players need to walk through the notes given for each lecture. At the end of the lecture, there is a random question related to that lecture that Earl presents to the player. If the question is answered correctly, that lecture is passed, indicated by a star next to the lecture title. After all lectures have been passed, the entire lectures segment is passed.

For the trainer battles section, there are a number of trainers that must battled and defeated. For the Trainer Class, there are seven trainers. For the Gym Leader Class, there are five trainers. For the Elite Four class, there are four trainers. For each trainer, the player and the trainer are assigned a team comprising six Pokémon with a moveset depending on the theme involved for the trainer. For example, for Super Nerd Melvin in the Trainer Class, the player is assigned six {{type|Normal}} Pokémon and Melvin is assigned six {{type|Fire}} Pokémon. All of the player's Pokémon are given only one move and that move is either super-effective or not very effective against {{type|Fire}} Pokémon, with half of the Pokémon having a super-effective move and the other half having a not very effective move. The player and the opponent select three Pokémon from their teams to send into battle. The goal is to defeat the opponent's three Pokémon selected ''and'' choose the correct three Pokémon to send into battle. If one of those three Pokémon is misselected and the player defeats the opponent's three Pokémon, the trainer is not considered defeated. In the aforementioned example, Melvin is considered defeated if the three Pokémon he selected are defeated and that the player has selected the correct three Pokémon to send into battle (the Pokémon who have moves that are super-effective against the Fire type). Once all of the trainers have been defeated, then the entire trainer battles section is passed.
