Go on your very own Pokémon trainer’s journey — complete challenges and earn special Pokéballs to become a Pokémon master! This free program runs Nov. 15 – Dec. 22.
Who can play
- Kids should be in grades K to 7 (adults can help with challenges!).
How to play
As a Pokémon trainer, your goal is to gain as much experience as possible on your journey, visiting each of the four regions on your trainer's map and completing challenges.
- Pick up your trainer's map at the children's department desk.
- Complete challenges. Examples:
- Tell someone your favourite scary story or what you were for Halloween.
- Read a Pokémon comic, graphic novel or chapter book.
- Draw your favourite fire type Pokémon.
- Once you have completed all challenges within a region, bring your trainer's map to the children's desk to earn a special Pokéball.
- Complete all four regions to become a Pokémon master!
Registration to go on your trainer’s journey is not required. If you would like to share some of your completed challenges with us, please email youthandfamilyservices@nvcl.ca.
Good luck!
On your map, you’ll see a set of challenges in four different regions: Sinnoh, Kanto, Johto and Alola. Work your way through the challenges and mark them as you complete them.
Once a region’s challenges are complete, bring your trainer’s map to the children’s desk to earn a special Pokéball.
