PokeDOC

The PokeDOC is a trainer multi-purpose device similar to the Pokedex and Pokenav from other titles, it is developed by Sovereign Co. Unlike most other Pokemon games, the player character owns a DOC right from the begining.

Functions
The PokeDOC serves various purposes, some were covered by similar gadgets in other games, others are entirely new to Pokemon Plasma. PokeDOC functions includes:
 * Accessing Pokedex informations.
 * Accessing various information about locations and characters in Celvice.
 * Receiving messages.
 * Consulting the Help System.
 * Receiving badges and other awards.
 * Playing background music.

As mentioned above, the gym leaders from Celvice don't hand out physical badges upon defeat, but rather slide a card in the trainer's PokeDOC and the badge appears in a "virtual case" that the hero can view on the screen.

The DOC also has a built-it music player that selects tracks depending on the trainer's location into the world, thus justifying the background music in the game.
