'''Hilbert''' (Japanese: '''トウヤ''' ''Tōya'') is the male [[player character]] in {{game|Black and White|s}}. His female counterpart is {{ga|Hilda}}.
 
==Terminology==
The name '''Hilbert''' (Japanese: '''トウヤ''' ''Tōya'') comes from his NPC appearance in the [[Battle Subway]]. It is also his most commonly used name, being used in merchandising and the {{g|Masters EX}} [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off game]].
 
He was named '''Black''' (Japanese: '''ブラック''' ''Black'') in certain pre-release material. English demos for Black and White refer to the character as '''Blair''', while English screenshots refer to him as '''Kuro'''. If a transferred Pokémon that has a trainer with a prohibited name comes from Black or Black 2, the Pokémon's OT will also be set to '''Kuro''' (Japanese: '''ブラック．''' ''Black.''), while Pokémon from White or White 2 will have their OT set to '''Shiro''' (Japanese: '''ホワイト．''' ''White.'').
 
==In the core series games==
==={{game|Black and White|s}}===
====As the playable character====
Hilbert is a 14-year-old boy who lives in [[Nuvema Town]], as do his [[Friend|childhood friends]], [[Cheren]] and [[Bianca]]. If chosen as the player, he will receive a [[first partner Pokémon]] and a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Juniper]]. After setting off on his [[Pokémon journey]] at the same time as Cheren and Bianca, Hilbert will at some point be asked by [[Fennel]] to do some sort of quest; in return for its completion, Hilbert will receive a [[C-Gear]].
 
As well as encountering and battling his childhood friends at various points during his journey, Hilbert will also meet a young man known as [[N]], who wishes to create separate worlds for humans and Pokémon. In order to achieve his goals, he and Hilbert will battle several times during the course of the game. Hilbert also battles [[Team Plasma]] at various stages of his journey. Ultimately, Hilbert is recognized as a hero by {{p|Reshiram}} or {{p|Zekrom}}, depending on the version.
 
====As a non-playable character====
If not chosen as the player, Hilbert appears as the player's partner in the [[Battle Subway]] when choosing to ride the Multi-Train. Two of the following Pokémon are picked from the corresponding list, depending on what the player wants him to base his team on. If the player chooses "A balance between the two," Hilbert's Pokémon are chosen from either list.
 
==={{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}===
In Black 2 and White 2, the protagonist of Black and White was said to be searching for N in a faraway region and has not yet returned home. His mom mistakes the player for him.


==In the games==
===Pokémon===
Touya is a boy who lives in [[Kanoko Town]], as do his childhood friends, [[Cheren]] and [[Bel]]. If chosen as the player, he will receive a [[starter Pokémon]] and a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Araragi]]. After setting off on his [[Pokémon journey]] at the same time as Cheren and Bel, Touya will at some point be asked by [[Makomo]] to do some sort of quest; in return for its completion, Touya will receive a [[C-Gear]].

As well as encountering and battling his childhood friends at various points during his journey, Touya will also meet a man known as [[N]], who wishes to create separate worlds for humans and Pokémon. In order to achieve his goals, he and Touya will battle several times during the course of the game. Touya also battles [[Team Plasma]] at various stages of his journey.
==In the spin-off games==
===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
{{main|Hilbert (Masters)}}
Hilbert, who is based on the [[player character]] from {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black}}, forms a [[sync pair]] with {{p|Oshawott}} and its evolved forms {{p|Dewott}} and {{p|Samurott}}, along with {{p|Mightyena}} and {{p|Genesect}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. Hilbert became a playable sync pair on September 24, 2019.


If not chosen as the player (that is, the female character was chosen as the player), he appears as the player's partner in the [[Battle Subway]] when choosing to ride the Multi-Train.
In this game, his reason for looking for {{mas|N}} during the events of {{B2W2}} is revealed to be due to N having left too suddenly for Hilbert to say goodbye to him, which is similar to what Hilbert's mom also says in Black 2 and White 2. Hilbert first appeared as an NPC during the eighteenth chapter of the [[PML Arc]]. He also made a notable appearance later in the [[Villain Arc]].

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Before the advent of Touya's official name, he was known by the fan-made name Black.
* From a {{wp|bird's-eye view}}, Hilbert's hat looks like a {{i|Poké Ball}}.
===Name origin===
* [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 beta#Pokémon World Tournament|Unused text]] in {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2 and White 2}} indicates that Hilbert and {{ga|Hilda}} were originally planned as opponents at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].
The origin of his name is speculated to be a combination of the word "tou" (透, meaning transparent and with the implication of being untainted) and the male name suffix "ya" (也).
* Hilbert and Hilda are the first [[player character]]s in the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}} not to have pre-programmed names either by choice or in case one isn't specified.
* In the May 2010 volume of [[CoroCoro]] Comics and the January 2011 volume of Nintendo Dream, it was stated that Hilbert and Hilda are older than previous player characters, but it is not said how much older they actually are.
** According to game scenario author [[Toshinobu Matsumiya]], Hilbert and Hilda were initially visualized to be at the age of 16.<ref>[http://archive.is/THahx Twitter | マツミや @matsumiyan]</ref>
* Hilbert's name may be a reference to {{wp|David Hilbert}}, a German mathematician who developed {{wp|Hilbert's program}} in an attempt to prove mathematical truth. This is similar to the theme of truth and ideals throughout Black and White.
** This is also similar to [[N]]'s mathematical motifs.
* [[Ash Ketchum|Ash's]] appearance in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White|Pokėmon the Series: Black and White]]'', is inspired by Hilbert's design. Ash's outfit is slightly altered, having a primarily white jacket with short sleeves and a light blue top; and his hat being white in the front and red in the back (being the inverse of Hilbert's).
