The Trainers' School is a large building in the outskirts of Hau'oli City. When you first get there, you will meet Professor Kukui, who gives you the Exp. Share. Then you can go and fight some trainers; you need to fight four trainers in the School. Lillie will heal your Pokemon if necessary.

  • Youth Athlete Hiromi
    • Pikipek (Lv. 8)
    • Pokebuck.png 224
  • Preschooler Mia
    • Bonsly (Lv. 7)
    • Pokebuck.png 84
  • Youngster Joey
    • Metapod (Lv. 7)
    • Pokebuck.png 140

Hiromi and Joey are located outside, whereas Mia is inside the school building. There is also tall grass in the area, in which you can catch:

  • Meowth (Lv. 6-8)
  • Magnemite (Lv. 6-8)
  • Grimer (Lv. 6-8)

#52 Meowth: Meowth is the second Pokemon to encounter that has a different form in the Alola region, becoming Dark-type instead of the usual Normal. Other than that, it is fairly similar, except now it evolves into Persian by happiness, not by level.

#88 Grimer: This sludge pile also gains a new form, changing to Poison/Dark. It now can have the ability Gluttony or Poison Touch, and has an interesting hidden ability called Power of Alchemy. It evolves into Alolan Muk normally.

After defeating the three trainers, a fourth student will battle you:

  • Rising Star Joseph
    • Grimer (Lv. 8)
    • Pokebuck.png 384

Defeating him, you obtain TM01 (Work Up). After this there will be an announcement telling you to go to the 2nd floor of the school building. Once you do this, the teacher, Emily, will ask to battle you.

  • Teacher Emily
    • Magnemite (Lv. 8)
    • Meowth (Lv. 9)
    • Pokebuck.png 432

After this, you obtain 5 Great Balls.

Then, Professor Kukui arrives, with another person. This person is Ilima, who runs the first island trial in a place called Verdant Cavern. After this, you and Lillie go out, and Hala asks you to pet the road-blocking Tauros. It will leave and now you can go into Hau'oli City.
