Moria, a female Sky Trainer in the anime

A female Sky Trainer named Moria appeared in Battles in the Sky!, commanding a Talonflame. At the beginning of the episode, she was seen defeating a male Sky Trainer using a Skarmory. Later she also battled Ash twice. In the first battle, her Talonflame took a rather easy victory over Ash's Hawlucha, while in the second battle, Ash's Fletchling evolved into a Fletchinder and learned Flame Charge in the middle of the match, resulting in Ash's victory.

A couple of other, unnamed Sky Trainers also appeared in the Sky Battle Center where Ash and his friends practiced the basics of Sky Battles.

In the anime, it is shown that Sky Trainers use their flying suits to fly alongside their Pokémon during Sky Battles.
