The visitor is a......Coordinator

The Trainer's School was built in a clearly demarcated area, occupying a considerable portion of land. After A'Yue's introduction, Terrance discovered that the school facilities here were much more comprehensive than those in Snowpoint City.

Snowpoint City's Pokémon Trainer's School primarily enrolled young children who had not yet reached the age to become Trainers.

On the other hand, Rustboro City's Trainer's School had four different classes, even more than the classes at Crown Academy.

These classes corresponded to Trainer, Coordinator, Breeder, and Beginner Class for young children.

"I attended Beginner Class here back in the day. However, I didn't continue in the Trainer class; instead, I chose to become an apprentice at the Rustboro Gym," A'Yue explained. "Terrance, which one are you interested in?"

"Do they have a class for Coordinators here?" Terrance asked, surprised.

He wasn't surprised that there is a Breeder class. Both Trainer and Breeder were professions that existed since the inception of the Pokémon League, closely intertwined with the historical development of Pokémon Trainers. It can be said that their origins are deeply rooted and intertwined.

However, professions like Coordinator had only emerged in the last few decades, gradually gaining popularity. In the past, it was something pioneers explored on their own.

"Haha...this is rather embarrassing to admit…." A'Yue scratched his head. It turned out that the class for teaching Coordinators was currently just an empty shell, unable to gather enough students to form a complete class.

Terrance had a look of "as expected" on his face, "In that case, I'm quite interested in the Beginner Class."

It was normal for the Coordinator Class not to be fully formed. Even the class at Crown Academy wouldn't have formed so early if it weren't for the sponsorship from Pokémon Contest authorities.

This Beginner Class differed from Crown Academy's Beginner Class. Crown Academy taught young people who already have Trainer qualifications some direct essentials about battling.

This included actual combat drills, participating in real Gym Battles, battles with type disadvantages, endgame battles, and some complex strategy tutorials.

On the other hand, this Beginner Class is more like early education, responsible for nurturing children's concepts of Trainers, Breeders, Coordinators, and providing in-depth instruction or reinforcement of the Pokémon knowledge taught in primary schools.

"There aren't many people who can afford to come here for schooling. Not every family is willing to spend money to send their children here," A'Yue pointed out the dilemma of the Trainer's School. Although the education provided here was more enjoyable for children compared to the language and math taught in primary schools…..But no matter how you look at it, it seems more like an extracurricular class.

"Only during leisure time do the children come here for classes. You are in luck today, most of them should be here."

Walking towards the direction of the Beginner Class, they encountered a bearded middle-aged man.

"Oh my, isn't this A'Yue? How come you have time to come back to school?" the middle-aged man in red clothes exclaimed.

"Teacher Terra, it's your turn to be on duty today!" A'Yue greeted.

"This is Terrance; I want to show him around the Beginner Class. Is it convenient now?"

"Let me think...for the Beginner Class, they should be watching Pokémon anime right now, right?" the middle-aged man pondered. "Wait until it is over, and then you'll have time."

"Ah, I see! Thank you very much," A'Yue said.

Teacher Terra smiled and nodded at Terrance, who reciprocated with a smile. Standing outside the Beginner Class' classroom, A'Yue and Terrance patiently waited. After approximately twenty minutes, with cheers echoing, a group of children ran out.

"Wait, all of you!!"

Following the children who ran out like crazy, a scolding voice could be heard. Terrance and A'Yue stood dumbfounded on the side, watching an annoyed girl with ash-brown hair run out, yelling at the kids.

It was evident that this girl was genuinely angry. Her black skirt and ponytails swayed vigorously with each shout.

"Hehe...Roxanne, let them play for a while."

"But... Teacher Izumi, they haven't finished their homework. Isn't it time to rest after finishing homework?" Roxanne couldn't comprehend.

The person called Teacher Izumi was quite old, with only a few strands of hair remaining on the head. From a distance, it looked like a bald head.

"Let them rest when it's time to rest. As for homework, let them do it during rest time. It's the same, isn't it?"

"Roxanne, you won't pass your internship like this. Teaching the Beginner Class is all about making the children like you, to feel close to you."

"I understand, Teacher Izumi..." Roxanne replied, sounding somewhat defeated.

"Also, we have guests here." Both Teacher Izumi and Roxanne turned towards Terrance and A'Yue.

"Miss Roxanne...what are you doing here?" A'Yue' eyes widened as he looked at Roxanne in surprise.

The so-called Roxanne was none other than Rustboro Gym's Gym Trainer, a genius student who loves rocks!

A'Yue deeply respected this junior of his, who had become a Gym Trainer. In other words, Roxanne was a typical top student, no matter how you look at it.

"Oh, isn't this A'Yue..." Roxanne looked at A'Yue, unsure: "I got tired of Gym Battles, so I wanted to intern as a teacher."

"And you, why did you come back to school?" A'Yue had known Roxanne since their time as apprentice at Rustboro Gym, so they spoke casually.

"We have a Trainer visiting."

Teacher Izumi exclaimed, "Haha, that's even better. The kids now have a reason to rest first."

Terrance, standing beside A'Yue, quickly introduced himself, "I'm Terrance from Fallarbor Town, currently on a journey collecting Ribbons...I hope I'm not disturbing."

At first, Teacher Izumi and Roxanne didn't think much of it. They had seen enough Trainers. However, after Terrance finished introducing himself, their expressions changed, looking at him with joy.

"Terrance, are you a Coordinator?" Teacher Izumi asked with slight surprise. Compared to Trainers, there were fewer Coordinators.

From the fact that the current Coordinator Class is still a shell, one could see how few Coordinators there were.

So, a Coordinator visiting Trainer's School was exceptionally rare.

Teacher Izumi had been worrying about how to let the children understand the Coordinator profession. If they didn't see a real Coordinator, the descriptions would seem too bland for children.

The Coordinator Class hadn't fully formed yet, and there were no proper Coordinator teachers at the moment.

The appearance of Terrance was indeed unexpected for Teacher Izumi. He just didn't know... how good Terrance was.

So, he asked in a roundabout way, "Coordinator, huh? Good, good. Terrance, are you just starting your journey as a Coordinator?"

"It's been a while, uh... I've already collected two Ribbons." Terrance replied.

Two Ribbons.

With this information, Teacher Izumi knew that Terrance was a legitimate Coordinator. A Coordinator who hadn't even collected a Ribbon, if not a beginner, would be considered mediocre.

If someone had obtained Ribbons, it indicated some proficiency in the field of Coordinator.

In Teacher Izumi's eyes, Terrance, with two Ribbons, was already an impressive Coordinator. So, he became even more pleased.
