A '''Cue Ball''' or '''Roughneck''' (Japanese: '''スキンヘッズ''' ''Skinhead'') is a type of [[Pokémon 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, as proven by their many appearances on {{ka|Cycling Road}}. Their Diamond/Pearl appearance has a {{p|Gyarados}} on the back of the vest, very 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.

A '''Roughneck''' (Japanese: '''スキンヘッズ''' ''Skinheads''), known as a '''Cue Ball''' until [[Generation IV]], is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. They appear as bald men wearing leather jackets. Roughnecks can be commonly found in the vicinity of {{tc|Biker}}s and, in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], {{tc|Punk Guy}}s. In [[Sinnoh]], they have a {{p|Gyarados}} on the back of their vest; in [[Unova]], they have a {{p|Krookodile}}. Cue Ball may be referring to their bald heads, which can resemble white billiards balls.


They specialize in a combination of {{type2|Poison}} and {{type2|Fighting}} [[Pokémon]] and are sometimes depicted as being affiliated with [[Team Rocket]].  
They are sometimes depicted as being affiliated with [[Team Rocket]].


When paired with {{tc|Biker}}s in [[Double Battle]]s, they are called {{tc|Hooligans}}.

They specialize in {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon in Generations I and III, and in {{type|Dark}} in Generation V. In the [[Battle Subway]], they specialize in Pokémon with [[one-hit knockout move]]s and, in the early stages, Dark- and Fighting-type Pokémon.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, Roughneck Kirby in the [[Lost Tower]] uses only one Pokémon; a {{p|Cleffa}}. This is highly contradictory to the established archetype for this Trainer Class, as well as his name that fans consider to go along with his Pokémon.
* In [[Generation I]], a Cue Ball can be found swimming in {{rt|21|Kanto}}. He does not appear in future [[generation]]s other than [[Generation VII]], in which he does not swim.
**However, he does mention that he is in the Lost Tower because his Pokémon has died at the hands of [[Team Galactic]], and Cleffa is the only one he has left.
* In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} and {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, Roughneck Kirby in the [[Lost Tower]] uses only one Pokémon; a {{p|Cleffa}}. This is highly contradictory to the established archetype for this Trainer class, as well as his name that fans consider to {{wk|Kirby|go along with his Pokémon}}.
**Also, in Pokémon Platinum, one of the Roughnecks that can be fought in the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}} expresses a dislike towards having Pokémon fight each other.

* The Japanese name of this Trainer class refers to the {{wp|Skinhead|Skinhead subculture}}, which is now often associated with racist and {{wp|Neo-Nazism|Neo-Nazi}} beliefs. This is likely why the name was changed for international releases.
