Interviewers (Trainer class): Difference between revisions

'''Interviewers''' (Japanese: '''インタビュアー''' ''Interviewers'') is a type of [[Double Battle|Double-Battling]] [[Pokémon Trainer]] class that first debuted in the [[Generation III]] games. The pair is made up of a {{tc|Reporter}} and a {{tc|Cameraman}}. In [[Generation IV]], Reporters and Cameramen can be battled alone, while in Generations III and {{gen|VIII}}, they appear only in pairs as Interviewers.

In [[Hoenn]]-based games, "Interviewer" specifically refers to [[Gabby and Ty]], who can be battled on Routes {{rtn|111|Hoenn}}, {{rtn|118|Hoenn}}, and {{rtn|120|Hoenn}}. In [[Sinnoh]]-based games, it specifically refers to [[Roxy and Oli]], who can be battled in [[Jubilife TV]] headquarters{{sup/4|DP}}{{sup/8|BDSP}} or various [[Pokémon Center]]s around [[Sinnoh]]{{sup/4|Pt}}.

In Generation III, they were referred to in the singular, as '''Interviewer''', which made it sound as though only Gabby belonged to the class; however, starting in the English versions of the [[Generation IV]] games, they are correctly referred to in the plural, as '''Interviewers'''.

A pair of Interviewers were one of the people swarming the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] in [[PS606]].

 

*In {{3v|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, after Gabby and Ty are defeated, Gabby will ask the player to sum up the battle in a single word. This later shows up on [[Television|TV]], as part of a report broadcast region-wide. In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the player inputs text manually. The text inputted will be broadcast on the BuzzNav.

* In Platinum, Interviewers Roxy and Oli can be found in these [[Pokémon Center]] locations around Sinnoh:
