Team Plasma is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation V games. This class comprises all the members of Team Plasma which battle the player: notably Ghetsis and the team's leader N in his final three battles with the player in Pokémon Black and White. In Black 2 and White 2, the player again battles Ghetsis along with high ranking members Zinzolin, the Shadow Triad, and Colress, the latter of which only uses this class during one battle. N, having renounced the team's ways, no longer uses this class.
