A '''Sky Battle''' (Japanese: '''{{j|スカイバトル}}''' ''Sky Battle'') is a type of [[Pokémon battle]] exclusive to {{g|X and Y}}. Sky Battles consist of two Pokémon battling each other in the air instead of on land or sea. However, because of this, only certain {{t|Flying}} types and certain Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Levitate}} are eligible for Sky Battles.

Sky Battles were only introduced in Pokémon X and Y; however, there is game artwork from the [[Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards]] that features a '''Pokémon Sky Battle''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ポケモンスカイバトル}}''' ''Pokémon Sky Battle'').

At certain points in the game, the player can encounter {{tc|Sky Trainer}}s on top of cliffs or other distant areas who will challenge them to a Sky Battle. All Sky Battles are optional, since the player may not have any eligible Pokémon to use. If all eligible Pokémon in the battle faint, the player will black out, but will resume the game standing where they were before battle. In this event, the Sky Trainer is unable to be re-challenged or even spoken to, even if the player's eligible Pokémon are restored, until the player exits and reenters the area.

Sky Battles first appeared in ''[[PS571|Burning Fletchinder]]''. While flying on a helicopter, {{adv|X}}, {{adv|Y}}, {{adv|Trevor}}, {{adv|Shauna}}, {{adv|Tierno}}, and [[Cassius]] were attacked by a group of Sky Trainers led by [[Yvette]]. Commanding a herd of {{p|Vivillon}}, they attacked the helicopter with {{m|Hurricane}}, forcing Y to go out and battle with them. Y flew away from the helicopter to prevent it from being attacked, but Yvette caught up to her and started to bully her, while her Vivillon battled [[Fletchy]]. Y finally fought back as Fletchy evolved into {{p|Fletchinder}}, who defeated Vivillon with {{m|Flame Charge}}. At the same time, X and the others saw [[Celosia]]'s {{p|Aegislash}}, realizing that  all the Sky Trainers were under its mind control. After X had [[Élec]] defeat it with {{m|Discharge}}, the Sky Trainers were freed from its control.
