Welcome To The Loyal Steed!
Welcome To The Loyal Steed!
"Howdy! The name's Quinn Jarmai, this here's my shop and I'm a Pokémon Trainer! Wh-hat? No, not like from the Bygone Age! No, I TRAIN Companions! So! Stand back and watch me work!"
Pokémon are amazing creatures and it through the companionship shared between Altermews and Pokémon that has allowed for Altermews to survive and societies to persist since the first days of Groudon's Reign to the present.
Companions are the Pokémon who are more intelligent, reliable, and/or trustworthy than others, and certain breeds have been bred for the specific purpose of aiding and abiding their Altermew masters. These are known as Drafts and Mounts. And then there's Loyal Companions... the Pokémon that used to be wild and feral, but have been Tamed to obey their new master.
But what if a person Tamed a Loyal Companion that they wanted to use as a Mount instead? Or a Draft? Or how about a Draft that shows quantities better suited as a Loyal, and so forth.
Well! The Town of Solara Veil put out a call for a Pokémon Trainer and they received an answer! Unlike the Pokémon Trainers of the Bygone Age, Pokémon Trainers of the present are specialized in re-training Companions so that they have a new designation! This specialization comes after years of training and learning, so Pokémon Trainers are exceedingly rare (especially since many have met their untimely demises while in study), but those who have mastered the Occupation are incredibly handy to have around!
Of course... the services of a Pokémon Trainer comes at a price, but it's worth it!
Choose wisely, though! Once a Companion's designation is changed trough Training, it cannot be unchanged!

Not Every Companion Can Become A Draft/Mount
Not Every Companion Can Become A Draft/Mount
While all Companions have the ability to become a Loyal Companion to their owners, it's important to note that certain Pokémon cannot become a Draft or Mount Companion.
Think about it!
A small Pokémon, like Clefairy or a Mudbray, cannot suddenly become a Mount Companion!
The Pokémon Trainer has established requirements that are based on their ability to train certain Companions.
Note Exception - Healing Pokémon: Only specific Pokémon can be trained to be Healers and the Pokémon Trainer CANNOT train just any Pokémon to be a Healer. See here for more details.
Draft Requirements
Draft Requirements
✦ Trainable Draft Companions must be fully evolved before they can be considered to become Draft Companions.
✦ The jobs/tasks of new Draft Companions must make sense! After all, it wouldn't make much sense if a Butterfree was tasked to protect Property or Livestock.
Read through the descriptions of the Hazard before choosing a potential Pokémon to be Trained to become a Draft!
Mount Requirements
Mount Requirements
✦ Trainable Mount Companions must have the Mount status in order to be rideable by their Owners. You can find the Mount Status either on the Mount Companion Page or in the Taming page.
Important Note On Mounts & Drafts Companions
Important Note On Mounts & Drafts Companions
Note 2 or more Draft Companions owned by the same Owner cannot have the same task as another! There is no stacking! Chose wisely!
Note At this time, Solarans are only allowed to own 1 Mount except Adventure Guilders, who can own 3 Mounts.
However, there might be a way to up the limit. Perhaps it's time to buy a Stable?

Bandit's Lair Pokémon Trainer
Bandit's Lair Pokémon Trainer
Okay, here's the deal.
The Bandit's Lair does not have an officially trained Pokémon Trainer (they're quite hard to come by, after all). However! All Outlaws should be thankful that Big Boss Levi is such a resourceful person with a lot of skills! He's a busy man, so approach him if you dare!
✦ Boss Levi acts as the Pokémon Trainer for Outlaws and he operates the same as the Loyal Steed's Pokémon Trainer.
The Only Difference
The Only Difference
Boss Levi charges 50 Coins PER Training Item!
