Coordinators specialize not in Pokémon Battles, but in Pokémon Contests. In Pokémon Contests, Pokémon compete not to hurt each other, but to use their attacks and abilities to impress the contest judges and the watching crowds. The world of Pokémon Contests is just as competitive as the Pokémon Battling scene, and so it’s not enough to merely groom a Pokémon’s physical appearance; Coordinators must learn to guide their Pokémon to act with grace and charm, and innovate so they can stand out from the crowds. In facing these challenges, Coordinators naturally acquire an ability for guidance and leadership, and this talent for directing others can even be exploited to their benefit in battle; here they can distract and disrupt enemies, or bolster their allies with encouragement or opportunities.
Although many Coordinators shun Pokémon Battles, ironically their training improves the Battle abilities of their Pokémon too. Their Pokémon learn to stay calm under pressure and give it their all, whether on the stage or the arena. And like Ace Trainers, the sheer amount of dedication Coordinators have towards their Pokémon lends itself to making strong bonds with their partners. And this willingness on the part of their Pokémon to do their best can make all the difference.
Coordinators are rare in settings without Pokémon Contests, but that’s not to say they cannot be used there. Coordinators can represent trainers who train their Pokémon with poise and polish, and value cohesion and dependency over risky maneuvers.

Adaptable Performance
Prerequisites: Coordinator
Scene – Free Action
Trigger: Your Pokémon’s Turn to use a Move in a Contest

Innovation
Prerequisites: Adaptable Performance
Daily – Extended Action
Target: A Pokémon with at least 1 Tutor Point.

1 AP – Free Action

2 AP – Free Action
Trigger: Your Pokémon makes an Appeal Roll, Accuracy Check, or Skill Check
Effect: For appeal rolls, instead of making the Appeal Roll, you gain 1 Appeal Point for each Dice you would have rolled. For Accuracy Checks, act as if you had rolled a 10. For Skill Checks, multiply 3.5 by your Pokémon’s Skill Rank, and use the resulting number as the result of your roll, rounded down. For all rolls, add or subtract any modifiers as normal.
Innovation Moves
The Coordinator’s “Innovation” Feature lets the Coordinator create new Moves for their Pokémon. These Moves are not very powerful in Battle, but can serve to fill voids in Move Lists for both Battles and Contests and provide utility.
To create a Move, first choose a Contest Type. This affects the Move’s effects and of course its role in Contests.
Next choose a Contest Effect. Look at the “Contest Effects” section under “Contests” for the full list. Pick one. That’s right, any of them. This determines what the Move does during a Contest, of course.
Third, choose one of the four templates below. This determines the Move’s effects in Battle. These are modified by the Contest Type of the Move. Remember, Cool is associated with Attack, Tough with Defense, Beauty with Special Attack, Smart with Special Defense, and Cute with Speed.
And finally, name your Move! This is the best part!
Template #1 Contest Boons:
Beauty: Use when declaring an attack (before Accuracy Roll) to gain a +3 bonus to Effect Range for that attack.
Cool: Use when declaring an attack (before Accuracy Roll) to gain a +3 bonus to Critical Hit Range for that attack.
Cute: Use during your turn to gain +3 Evasion for one full round.
Smart: Use when declaring an attack (before Accuracy Roll) to gain a +3 bonus to Accuracy for that attack.
Tough: Use at the start of a turn to avoid all loss of Hit Points from Status Afflictions, Weather, and Recoil for that turn.
