Tips
  • The Trainer Card system operates on a star system, where each completed feat grants a star. The order in which you earn these stars determines the card you receive. For example, if you defeat the Elite Four before completing a Master Rank Contest, you will receive the Blue card first, then potentially the Bronze card later, rather than the Gold card if you had met its requirements earlier.
  • Trainer Cards do not provide any special gameplay advantages; they are purely for bragging rights.
