It is 2 different checkrides in initial: SIC and then PIC. All initial training is done half in the right seat and half in the left. The PIC checkride is done in the left seat, but by then, the left seat flows and responsibilities are solid.
I definitely wouldn't want to come into the PIC ride with only an hour or two in the seat "warming up."
