A '''Worker''' (Japanese: '''はたらくおじさん''' ''Working Man'' in Generation III, '''さぎょういん''' ''Laborer'' in Generation IV onwards) is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in the [[Generation III]] games, where they appeared in {{g|Colosseum}} and {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}. They later appeared in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. Workers can also appear in Johto's {{gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}}.

They are generally depicted as young-to-middle-aged men with hardhats and tools. They appear to be similar to the {{tc|Engineer}} class, but they use different Pokémon. They use {{t|Rock}}-, {{t|Fighting}}-, {{t|Steel}}-, and {{type|Ground}} Pokémon. In the [[Battle Subway]]  and [[Battle Maison]], they specialize in Pokémon benefiting from {{weather|sandstorm}}.

In {{2v2|Black|White}}, some Workers dress in warmer clothing for colder climates, similar to the {{tc|Ace Trainer}}s that are on {{rt|217|Sinnoh}} and in [[Snowpoint Gym]]. They are mainly found in [[Cold Storage]]; they still use mainly {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon, but several also use {{type|Ice}} Pokémon. While the Cold Storage is no longer accessible in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, bundled-up Workers can still be found in places such as [[Twist Mountain]]. In the [[Battle Subway]], these specialize in Ice-type Pokémon.

==In the anime==
A group of Workers (referred to here as miners) appeared in ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come!]]'', where they and their Pokémon were working in the [[Oreburgh Mine]].

A group of Workers appeared in ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''. Their work was interfered by flickering streetlights, caused by the [[Genesect Army]]'s actions at [[Pokémon Hills]]. Fortunately, their {{p|Ampharos}} was able to give them light with its tail, allowing the men to continue their work.

[[File:Workers Adventures.png|200px|thumb|Two Workers in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
====History====
====={{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}=====
In ''[[PS341|Putting a Crimp in Kricketot]]'', a Worker in [[Oreburgh City]] is seen loudly scolding his Psyduck, [[nickname]]d "Yeller" (Japanese: '''きいろ''' ''Yellow''), for playing with the controls of a bulldozer. Psyduck had caused the machine to roll down the hill, putting {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} in danger. The Worker apologizes to them, and Platinum asks him for a tour of the [[Oreburgh Mine]] as repayment, hoping to dig for coals. Diamond and Pearl initially let her go by herself with the Worker. However, they go after her as soon as [[Chatler]] tells the location of the mine to the boys by repeating the Worker's voice. After Platinum's [[Piplup]] defeats a swarm of {{p|Kricketune}}, the Worker mentions that [[Roark]] envisioned the mine as a place to dig for coal, and for training Pokémon as well. Piplup's pride is hurt because she has not participated in the past few battles together with Diamond and Pearl's Pokémon, so the Worker suggests Platinum to go challenge the [[Oreburgh Gym]] to help Piplup regain her confidence.

In ''[[PS342|A Conk on Cranidos's Cranium]]'', [[Roark]] is seen talking to some friendly Workers at the [[Oreburgh Mine]]. Roark tells them about some of the [[Fossil]]s he dug out from [[The Underground]]. The Workers introduce Roark to [[Platinum]] and tell him that Platinum intends to challenge the [[Oreburgh Gym]].

In ''[[PS374|Brash Bronzong I]]'', the Worker who owns a Psyduck is seen again. He and Roark talk about [[Byron]] investigating [[Team Galactic]] in [[Canalave City]].

====={{chap|Black & White}}=====
Workers Felix (Japanese: '''カンキチ''' ''Kankichi''), Rich (Japanese: '''リイチ''' ''Rīchi''), Sterling (Japanese: '''ギンジ''' ''Ginji''), Don (Japanese: '''タモツ''' ''Tamotsu''), and Heath (Japanese: '''タイゾウ''' ''Taizo'') work as miners for [[Clay]]. They were first seen in ''[[PS465|Lights, Camera...Action]]'', where they and Clay unearthed a [[Dragon Stones|mysterious stone]] at the [[Desert Resort]]. Later, in ''[[PS492|Mine Mayhem]]'', Heath was ordered to bring {{adv|Black}} to the [[Driftveil Gym]] so that he and Clay could have their Gym battle. All of the Workers here are based on the Workers found either in the [[Driftveil Gym]] or [[Twist Mountain]] in {{2v2|Black|White}}.

Several Workers made an appearance at {{rt|4|Unova}} in ''[[PS481|Sandstorm]]''. They were playing a game of [[card flip]] during their break. However, one of the Workers turned out to be a disguised {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}. The Grunt was exposed and beaten by [[Grimsley]].

A group of Workers, some of them in their winter clothes, was seen in ''[[PS489|Drawing Bridges]]'' amongst the Trainers waiting to get to cross the [[Driftveil Drawbridge]].
