Tuber (Trainer class): Difference between revisions

A '''Tuber''' (Japanese: '''うきわボーイ''' ''Inner Tube Boy'' and '''うきわガール''' ''Inner Tube Girl'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in the [[Generation III]] games. They are young children in inner tubes that are learning to swim. They come in male and female versions. They appear to be younger versions of {{tc|Swimmer}}s. The [[prize money]] for defeating them is generally low.

When male Tubers are paired with female Swimmers in [[Double Battle]]s, they are called {{tc|Sis & Bro}}s.

*In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, there are no male Tubers, and the male version of the Trainer class is not even programmed into the games, despite there being a {{tc|Sis & Bro|Sis and Bro}} Trainer class (which is a female {{tc|Swimmer}} paired with a male Tuber).

*In the [[Generation IV]] [[Battle Frontier (Generation IV)|Battle Frontier]], male Tubers use the [[Ninja Boy]] overworld sprite, while female Tubers use the [[Twins]] overworld sprite.
