The next League Coach we invite is Poppy of the Elite Four, I am sure that the Blueberry Academy students will wonder why a child who looks supposedly like a pre-schooler got accepted as an Elite Four member, but we at least get to learn Poppy's age through one of the interactions. She has interactions with Larry, Grusha, Rika, Hassel, Geeta, Amarys, and Lacey, here is our first League Club Coach that can interact with one of the Blueberry League Elite Four, or one of the Blueberry Academy students.
Here is Poppy's team, she has the same team that she had back when we fought her in the League Test, but she has included a new addition to her team.
Copperajah: High Horsepower, Play Rough, Heavy Slam, Stealth Rock
Bastiodon: Iron Defense, Body Press, Metal Burst, Reflect
Bronzong: Iron Head, Zen Headbutt, Ice Spinner, Earthquake
Magnezone: Discharge, Flash Cannon, Light Screen, Tri Attack
Corviknight: Dual Wingbeat, Iron Head, Body Press, Iron Defense
Tinkaton: Play Rough, Gigaton Hammer, Brick Break, Stone Edge

Poppy uses Steel-type Pokémon, and her lead is Copperajah, which can set up Stealth Rock and can hit hard with Heavy Slam. Her new addition to the team is Bastiodon, it has Sturdy and Metal Burst, which it can put to use if you try to take it out in one attack with a Ground or Fighting-type move, and it does know Body Press to put its high Defense to use, and it pairs well with Iron Defense. Bronzong has Iron Head and Zen Headbutt for its main attacks, and it can use Ice Spinner to remove terrain, Magnezone can set up Light Screen and it knows Discharge, Corviknight also has the Iron Defense and Body Press strategy, and it now has Dual Wingbeat for its Flying-type move. Poppy's final Pokémon is Tinkaton, which she Terastallizes to a Steel Tera Type, and paired with its Gigaton Hammer, Tinkaton can deal massive damage, as Gigaton Hammer is a high powered move, but at least it cannot use it consecutively, it has Stone Edge to deal with Fire-type Pokémon.
After the battle, Poppy gives you 10 Rare Candies, while this would be a good reward in earlier games as Rare Candies used to be very limited, but now they are easy to obtain in the more recent games. On your third interaction, Poppy will trade you a Tinkatuff for any of your Pokémon, and unfortunately, there is nothing special about this Tinkatuff, it has its basic level up moves and it doesn't even have the Hidden Ability, it has Mold Breaker which is still a good Ability to have on it. The only thing special about it is the Partner Ribbon, which gives it the title "Poppy's Tinkatuff", they could have given it like Ice Hammer to make it special, and I did check the moves it gets from TMs, and most of the Fairy or Steel-type moves it gets from TM can be learned through level up, but at least it is a trade from a League Club Coach.
