Global Trainer Forum [Japanese: グローバル_トレーナー_フォーラム, English: Global_Trainer_Forum]

[A network exchange platform that brings together the wisdom and vitality of trainers from all over the world!]

————————————————————

Commonly referred to as the GT Forum, it is an online communication platform established by the Pokémon League for trainers from all over the world to exchange information. Founded on April 17, 969 in the Elven calendar, it has a history of more than 30 years.

Every citizen who registers for a Trainer license with the Pokémon Alliance will receive an account tied to their identity and can talk to Trainers around the world in the forum. You can choose to post with your real name or anonymously with a nickname, which cannot be modified once submitted.

The forum has different sections such as communication area, academic area, announcement area, entertainment area and so on.

Communication Zone:

Here, trainers share and exchange information on the Pokémon infestation in each region, road traffic, city profiles, and environmental profiles such as forests, rivers, and mountains in the suburbs.

Eight themes are set up according to regional boundaries: Kanto, Tachibana, Joto, Hoenne, Sinnoh, United Forces, Carlos, and Guardian Alliance.

Over the past 30 years, it has become a huge encyclopedia resource, from the customs of various regions to the nameless shops in a small town.

There is an unknown trainer with the ID of [Bird] who has written a number of travel guides for various regions with beautiful typography and accurate and detailed information, mainly related to the wild environment. His usual format for posting is [Location Details: xxx Topic], so the series of posts he publishes are also called the "Location Details" series. The poster was first posted more than 20 years ago and is still changing to update the latest content.

The activities of nefarious organizations such as Team Rocket often lead to a wave of heated topics.

Academic District:

A section for communicating Pokémon's attributes, skills, characteristics, Pokémon cultivation methods, and command skills.

On more than one occasion, the forum has been crowded to the point of system paralysis by the influx of IPs into the academic area, usually after a major discovery in the Pokémon research community, such as the discovery of a new attribute or trait. The most recent system crash was after the first public workshop on MEGA evolution-related intelligence.

Occasionally, affiliate strategists come to this section anonymously to talk to young trainers and give advice.

Sometimes the powerhouses of the Heavenly King Champion level will also post and discuss here. Regardless of the level, trainers will find information that will benefit them.

The new attributes "Fairy" and MEGA Evolution, discovered a year ago, have been hot topics in the academic area recently. Some trainers are discussing the "permanent skill machine" that has been exposed for a while.

Announcement area:

The section where announcements are posted on the official accounts of police stations, Pokémon Centers, and other departments in each region. The content usually includes important information such as natural disasters, road conditions, major events in various cities, and the chaos of evil groups.

The official account of the Daily Lying, "Trainer Daily News", published a pinned post in the announcement area, which contains a summary of news related to trainers, updated daily at 6 a.m. and 18 p.m. This post has been at the top for more than a decade.

Only verified official accounts are allowed to post in the announcement area, which usually only allows trainers to reply to discussions in the building.

In the year 993 of the Elven calendar, the announcement area was invaded by the anti-government hacker group "Ants", and tampered with important announcement information, causing many trainers to be misled and put in danger. Due to the fact that the official website of the League was also invaded at the same time, and the animation of the castle building of the Hall of Champions collapsing in the ant colony was automatically played on the homepage, this event was called "Ant Attack on the City".

Entertainment Zone:

Gossip and complain about the irrigation area.

There are many well-known urban legends of various regions.

The first person in charge of the alliance, President Dama Lanqi, once revealed that one of his hobbies is to wear a vest to mix in the entertainment area. Guess the president's vest has since become a repertoire in the entertainment district.

The top page features classic Pokémon-themed movies.

Since the 977 clan format was publicly proposed, fans of each clan have gradually begun to gather here, uploading photos of the clan members and even writing memorabilia in a list. This fan base has been growing in recent times.

In the annual [Team Popularity Competition], the winner of the Elven calendar year 999 is the Dragon's Fang, who received 190388 votes. In the [Four Heavenly Kings Popularity Match] and [Champion Popularity Match], the winners were the Kanto region Ryutenwangdu and Sinnoh region champion Shirona respectively.
