A '''Cue Ball''' or '''Roughneck''' (Japanese: '''スキンヘッズ''' ''Skinhead'') is a type of {{g|Trainer}} that first debuted in the [[Generation I]] games. They appear as gigantic, hulking bald men. Cue Balls are usually in the vicinity of [[Biker]]s. Their Diamond/Pearl appearance has a {{p|Gyarados}} on the back of the vest, much similar to most gangs, indicating they might be thugs of some sort.

They appear as gigantic, hulking bald men. Cue Balls are usually in the vicinity of [[Biker]]s, as proven by their many appearances on [[Cycling Road]]. Their Diamond/Pearl appearance has a {{p|Gyarados}} on the back of the vest, much similar to most gangs, indicating they might be thugs of some sort. Their name may be referring to their bald heads, which can resemble white billiards balls. | ||

==Trivia== | |||
*In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, Roughneck Kirby in the [[Lost Tower]] uses only one Pokémon; a [[Cleffa]]. This is highly contradictory to the established archetype for this Trainer Class. | |||
*Also in the fourth generation, the battle sprite for the Roughneck Trainer Class clearly features a {{p|Gyarados}} design on the back of his vest that is not present on the back of the vest of his field map sprite. This may possibly be attributed to the fact that field map sprites are significantly smaller than their battle sprite counterparts. | |||
