A '''Biker''' (Japanese: '''ぼうそうぞく''' ''{{wp|Bōsōzoku|Wild-riding Gang}}'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation I]] games. They are generally depicted as rough men wearing jackets with wild hairstyles riding motorcycles. Furthermore, they are also oftentimes spotted with {{tc|Roughneck}}s. {{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Red and Blue's|s}} sprite is nearly identical to {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold and Silver's|s}} sprite. The sprites of Bikers in {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} are similar to the sprites of the Roughnecks in {{v2|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. The bikes shown in the HeartGold and SoulSilver sprites have a part that looks very similar to the horn of a male {{p|Heracross}}.

Notable gangs of Bikers include the [[Kanto Pokémon Federation]], the [[Tubeline Bridge|Black Empoleon]], and the [[EP036|Bridge Bike Gang]]. They are sometimes depicted as being affiliated with [[Team Rocket]].  

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

They specialize in {{t|Poison}} and {{type|Fire}} Pokémon. In the [[Battle Subway]], they specialize in non-legendary Pokémon with high base stats, and in the early stages, {{t|Dark}} and {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.

==In the anime==

A bunch of bikers appeared in ''[[EP036|The Bridge Bike Gang]]'', as the title gang. Notable members include [[Chopper]] and [[Tyra]]. The gang stopped {{Ash}} and his friends from crossing the bridge, but after a battle, Ash told them he was trying to save a sick Pokémon, so the bike gang let them go. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] were also members of this biker gang before joining [[Team Rocket]].

Ash first calls out {{p|Bulbasaur}} and has it use {{m|Vine Whip}}, but that proves to be useless against Golem's shell. Golem then defeats Bulbasaur with a single Tackle. Ash recalls Bulbasaur and sends out {{p|Charmander}}. It uses {{m|Ember}}, but Golem is unaffected. The Megaton Pokémon then attacks with Rock Throw, but Charmander dodges and attacks with {{m|Flamethrower}} and {{m|Fire Spin}} in succession, covering Golem's body with flames. Golem attempts to Tackle Charmander, but just ends up rolling amongst the bike gang as a red-hot ball of fire, forcing Chopper to recall it. Even after the battle, Golem's [[Poké Ball]] was so hot that Chopper almost burned his fingers while holding it. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[EP105|Charizard Chills]]''.

Golem's known moves are {{m|Defense Curl}}, {{m|Tackle}}, and {{m|Rock Throw}}.}}

At first, Misty attempts to use her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}}, but {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} popped out instead, and Misty decided to give it a try. Psyduck hadn't any clues about what it was supposed to do, and so Tyra and the bike gang roared with laughter. Misty told Psyduck to use {{m|Tail Whip}}, which didn't give any result and only got the gang laughing harder. Upon Tyra's command, Cloyster then opened its shell and used Clamp on Psyduck's tail, causing it to scream in pain. Due to this, Tyra declared herself the winner of the match.

 

In ''[[PBW1|Advance Toward the Path of the Strongest!]]'', there is a biker called the '''Biker King''' (Jp: '''暴走族のキング''' ''Bōsōzoku King'') where he laughs at the thought of the trio becoming battle masters and starts to insult them, annoying [[Monta]] and [[Cheren]]. He thinks they are weak and challenges Monta and [[Cheren]] to a [[Double Battle]] against just his {{p|Braviary}}. Despite being very strong, he was defeated by [[Monta's Snivy]] and Cheren's {{p|Tepig}}'s combination of {{m|Grass Pledge}} and {{m|Fire Pledge}}.

In ''[[PS275|The Boss Gets Off]]'', [[Kanto Pokémon Federation|a group of Bikers]] appeared at Three Island. There, they decided to take all of the [[Berry|Berries]] from the nearby [[Berry Forest]], then they would destroy the town. On their way to the forest, they nearly ran over [[Lostelle]]. The boss of the gang then threatened the little girl. Overhearing this, the legendary {{adv|Deoxys}} attacked the Bikers. They were all battered and bruised, but the leader got away and begged for help from a {{adv|Giovanni|man}}, but he showed no mercy for them.

In the {{chap|Black & White}}, a Biker was one of the people who released their Pokémon after listening to [[Ghetsis]]'s speech. When {{adv|Black}} tried to protest this decision, he was told to mind his own business. Later, this same Biker was revealed to be the leader of the Black {{p|Empoleon}}. During his training with [[Brycen]], Black was tasked with facing the Black Empoleon on the [[Tubeline Bridge]]. Thanks to his earlier training, Black manages to easily defeat his opponents. Once defeated, Jeremy renames the gang to the Black {{p|Tirtouga}}.  

Jeremy later appears at the {{OBP|Pokémon League|Unova}} alongside several other Trainers to help battle Team Plasma. They face the [[Seven Sages]] in battle to rescue the kidnapped Gym Leaders. Eventually they succeed and proceed to help defeat the Team Plasma Grunts attacking the League.

While {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} and his Pokémon were going to a department store to get a flying machine, a group of bikers show up and surround the trio. Their {{p|Weezing}} was only seen for a brief second as their two heads did not get along with each other. After Weezing's defeat, {{p|Primeape}} showed up much to the bikers's surprise and took care of Clefairy itself. When Clefairy was kicked into the department store, this made the bikers laugh. However, a banana distracted the Primeape which caused Clefairy to defeat it. After battling the bikers, Red and his Pokémon run in the department store only to find out that {{OBP|Blue|Pocket Monsters}} beat them there. After Blue flew away on the flying machine, Clefairy got on the motorcycle and the bikers respected him.
