Trainer Identity is the account-level specialization system. It gives you a long-term role on top of the rest of the game.
The core rule
You can only have one active identity at a time.
The four current paths are:
- Researcher
- Hunter
- Pathfinder
- Battler
If you switch later, you keep your old progress. You just stop advancing that path until it becomes active again.
What each path is about
Researcher
Best for:
- Pokemon Mastery
- Eco Dome
- outbreak study
Hunter
Best for:
- outbreak targets
- rare variants
- roaming and trophy-style catches
Pathfinder
Best for:
- Route Mastery
- route contracts
- world conditions
- fishing routes
Battler
Best for:
- challenge wins
- tower clears
- strongholds
- league content
How progression works
- Your active identity gains XP from the activities tied to that path.
- Each path has its own level track.
- Each path also has weekly contracts.
Rewards
Identity rewards are split between:
- weekly contract payouts
- milestone rewards
- titles
- profile badges
- profile frames
- inspect badges
The point of the system is to make your account feel like it stands for something, not just to hand out another generic currency bundle.
