Updated on July 13, 2025 by Renri Seong: Midterms and finals are part of the Naranja/Uva Academy inPokemon Scarlet & Violet, and if you want to reap the best rewards, you’ll want to score high. Doing so unlocks postgame content exclusive to the Teal Mask/Indigo Disk expansion pack. Students will be expected to answer classroom questions that will appear on the exams. However, some players may be wondering if you need to get every classroom answer correct. The following guide has been updated to include more info regarding the midterms/finals portion of Naranja/Uva Academy as well as a section on the Team Star Tutor event.
Do You Have to Answer Lecture Questions Correctly?
How Do Lectures Influence Exams
There are a total of9 lectures per subject. You’ll sit through 3 of them before taking the midterm, then 6 of them before taking the final. For each lecture, the respective professor will ask your character a question related to the topic of the day. You’re normally given three options,and if you’re aPokemonveteran, you’l probably know most answers without needing to look them up.
First and foremost, thelecture answers do not matter. If you answer incorrectly, you’ll simply be corrected before the lecture continues. Likewise, answering correctly has similar results. However, you’ll recognize the same lecture question (or some variant) while taking the midterms or finals. It’s also not a bad idea toreadwhat the professors are saying. Lectures provide in-game tips covering multiple topics, such as battle mechanics, shiny odds, and egg hatching.

If you buy the expansion pack, you’ll gain access to more in-game content, including a new episode with Team Star. The “reformed” Team Star decide to return to school, and you’ll be recruited by Giacomo and Eri tohelp the other Team Star leaders brush up on their studies.
There are a few prerequisites to unlocking the Team Star Tutor event:
Once you’ve done this, you should find Giacomo and Eri in the new school uniforms standing in theleft wingon the first floor of the academy. Speak to either one to start the event.
You’ll need to answer Atticus, Ortega, and Mela’s questions. Atticus and Ortega have one question whereas Mela has five. You don’t have to answer everything correctly, but it’s recommended you do so.
Here are the questions and answers to all the Team Star leaders:
Ortega
See, the protagonist in this book is the mom in a Maushold family -her name’s Mama Maushold. We’re supposed to analyze why she calls Papa Maushold “terrible” in this passage.
She must actually love him a lot.
Atticus
I feel I need not concern myself with numbers. They have naught to do with fashion, after all!
The reward for ‘acing’ the Team Star Tutor event is a Gold Bottle Cap, which you can use to Hyper Train your Pokemon. If you miss a question, then you’ll getthe Wise Glasses held iteminstead. Equipping a Wise Glasses item to your Pokemon raises the power of their special moves by 10% in battle. Not a bad reward, but you can buy Wise Glasses from Delibird Presents in Mesagoza. Thus, you’ll want to aim for the Gold Bottle Cap instead.
