A '''Preschooler''' (Japanese: '''えんじ''' ''Kindergartner'') is a type of {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} introduced in [[Generation V]]. They are young children dressed in uniforms typical of Japanese kindergartens. They could be considered younger versions of the {{tc|Schoolkid}} Trainer class. They are often found with at least one other Preschooler and near a {{tc|Nursery Aide}}.

In ''[[EP053|The Purr-fect Hero]]'', {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} stopped by at a school to entertain the Preschoolers who were excited about meeting [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. One boy, {{OBP|Timmy|EP053}}, was ridiculed by his classmates because the only Pokémon he wanted to meet is a {{p|Meowth}}. He later explained that a {{pkmn2|wild}} Meowth had saved him when he was attacked by a wild {{p|Beedrill}} once, but none of his classmates believed his story. Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] found out about the preschool and used it to their advantage in another scheme to steal {{AP|Pikachu}}. Timmy believed that {{MTR|their Meowth}} was the Meowth that had saved him. However, their plans were foiled, and in the end, the real Meowth came to the rescue, with Timmy's peers no longer doubting him.
