When will Mom call the hero?
It's been shown that Mom will call the hero once
she has saved up enough money to buy the hero an item. Because Mom
only gets your money after trainer battles, there is a false rumor
that you must defeat a certain number of trainers in order for Mom
to call you.

How often will trainers call?
Trainers appear to call you every half hour. They
appear to call whenever you step out of a building, fly, finish a
battle, or ride the train. The calls might not be triggered by
steps. Decision of which trainer will call is random.
