The Master Dojo (Japanese: マスター道場 Master Dojo) is a battle facility on the Isle of Armor in the Galar region. It is owned and operated by Mustard and his wife Honey. The Master Dojo accepts a limited number of students who wish to grow stronger as Pokémon Trainers.
Trials
The students who wish to receive the "secret armor" of the Master Dojo must pass Mustard's three trials:
- First trial: The students must chase down, battle, and defeat three Galarian Slowpoke which are at 6 Speed thanks to being trained by Mustard himself. Additionally, Mustard also asks them to get Klara'sSw/Avery'sSh Dojo Uniform back from the Slowpoke. The player succeeds in defeating all three Slowpoke and get the uniform back all on their own, but most students, including the player's rival, managed to catch up to the Slowpoke at least once, passing the first trial.
- Second trial: The students must find three clusters of Max Mushrooms, mushrooms filled with Dynamax energy that are needed to make a Max Soup, the key to Gigantamaxing. The player and KlaraSw/AverySh were the only ones to find three Max Mushroom, passing the second trial.
- Third trial: The students must participate in a Dynamax battle against each other. Despite KlaraSw/AverySh cheating by summoning Psychic TerrainSw/Toxic SpikesSh, the player still defeated them
Upon completing the trials, Mustard rewards the player with the "secret armor", the Legendary Pokémon Kubfu.

In the manga
Master Dojo in Pokémon Adventures
Pokémon Adventures
The Master Dojo first appeared in Flutter!! Tickets to a New Land, where Klara and Avery were revealed to be students there. After finding an unconscious and poisoned Henry at the Soothing Wetlands during their training, they brought him to the dojo, where Hyde used the Cram-o-matic to create an antidote for him. Shortly afterwards, Casey and Marvin reunited with Henry at the dojo. Even though they weren't official apprentices of the dojo, Mustard offered to let Casey train his Kubfu. However, since Casey already had a full team of six Pokémon on hand, she refused, so Mustard entrusted Kubfu with Henry instead.
Henry, Casey, and Marvin stayed at the dojo as they conducted their search for that Rusted Sword and Shield across the Isle of Armor, with Henry also training Kubfu on the side.
Max Soup was seen in a flashback in PASS42, where Mustard was revealed to have given Henry, Casey, and Marvin each a bowlful of it as a parting gift when they left the Master Dojo, enabling their respective first partner Pokémon to Gigantamax.
