I’m new to bonsai and don’t know much about them. I haven’t been able to find a pot I like that is in my budget. Could I make one out of oven bake clay or would that be harmful to the plant?

Yes, you can make them with baked clay if the temperature is high enough and the pot doesn't thaw a lot in the winter.

Also look into concrete pots!

If you are New to the hobby it is likelly that you are years from needing a Nice pot. Concrete as lb mentioned, plastic trays or diy wood is all Good alternatives for training.

What is the point of training pots? I’ve seen videos from Heron 名媛直播 and they don’t seem to use them

A larger pot allows the tree to grow faster and therefor develop faster. Once you plant a tree in a properly sized bonsai pot, fattening of trunks and branches slows down so much that you can hardly build them anymore. A trainingpot will also help develop a better nebari, easier than in a small bonsai pot.

It is a way station between full on ground growing and a bonsai pot

Heron has a lot of interesting videos. I think they use loads of training pots.

Herons use a lot of training pots. But also a lot of training in the ground.

The simple idea is that a tree developes faster the more roots it have. To get more roots, get the biggest pots possible or plant it in the ground. Then when pretrained use smaller and smaller during refinement.

Training pots are for training. While the tree is young and not ready to be called a bonsai and for a bonsai pot we use cheap usually plastic pots which are shallow so bonsai container shaped but at a very low cost. There are many different kinds, I use a washing up owl for some, with holes of course

Yeah, forgot. Price of course. If you have a tree which is worth 20 bucks, you are not really goign to spend 50 bucks on a pot
I have found cat litter trays very siotable for growing out, just like storage baskets
