Dojo [Japanese: どうじょう, Doujyou, English: Dojo]

[A holy place to examine yourself, polish your strength, and practice.] 】

The dojo is a place for humans or Pokémon to practice and improve their strength.

In the past, experienced martial artists and trainers set up training institutions called "dojos" in order to pass on the skills they had honed over the years to the next generation. The apprentices who are powerful and valued by the teachers may be selected to become the normal generation, or even the next successor of the dojo.

There are two types of dojos, those for humans who practice martial arts and those for trainers. Examples of the fusion of the two are also often seen.

Dojos that have been passed down from generation to generation often have a unique style. Taking the Trainer Dojo as an example, most of the dojos specialize in a certain attribute or certain type of skill, and the long-established dojos even have unique skills that are not passed on to the outside world.

Some trainer dojos have accumulated enough strength and reputation over the years, and the venues have become larger and more numerous, and gradually evolved into the existence form of "genre". The dojos opened by well-known schools are often called "famous schools", such as today's top schools "Cangxue Stream" and "Fierce Poison Stream".

The Trainer Dojo is the predecessor of the modern officially certified Pokémon Dojo. For example, the Kanto Rainbow Dojo used to be called the Kuseishi Dojo, and the founder of the Nibi Dojo was the Shiyoyo of the Sakengan Dojo.

If you have studied at an officially certified trainer dojo for more than one year, you will be able to obtain a certificate of study from the dojo, which will be helpful for entering the trainer training academy or finding a job. For freelance trainers who do not want to enroll, the trainer dojo is also a more suitable place for apprenticeship and part-time work to earn money.

Tuition fees are usually higher and entry requirements are stricter. For freelance trainers who are unable to meet these conditions but still want to get an education, entering the ashram is the first choice. However, due to the excessive influx of new students every year, the powerful dojos have gradually begun to set up entrance examinations, and the dojos under the top schools or official dojos are even more high.

Nearby dojos often compete with each other, and students are sent to face each other on a regular basis. In the name of an individual, you can also challenge the entire dojo, commonly known as "kicking the hall", and defeating all the dojo teachers and teachers at once is a success in kicking the hall. Those who have completed the kick are usually allowed to take any position in the dojo or take the dojo's unique secret skills.

If the kickout is successful, the kicker usually receives immediate media attention and becomes famous. However, the normal generation and teacher strength of the famous family are strong, and it is not easy to succeed in the gym.

And the normal generation or teacher status of the famous dojo has a lot of weight among the trainers, and sometimes it is even on a par with the owner of the official dojo.
