A '''Pokémon groomer''' is a person who improves a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[friendship]] by giving it special treatment to bring out its best. A groomer's services are not limited to typical grooming activities and may include treatments like massages and spa treatments. They were first seen in [[Generation II]], and have appeared in every subsequent core series game. Typically, a groomer's services are only available to one Pokémon per day. | A '''Pokémon groomer''' is a person who improves a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s [[friendship]] by giving it special treatment to bring out its best.

The first groomers to be featured in the {{pkmn|anime}} were also {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}s, such as {{an|Brock}} and [[Suzie]]. In ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]'', it was shown how grooming a Pokémon through techniques such as massage brings out a Pokémon's inner beauty, making them feel their best rather than merely dolling them up. | |||
In the {{series|XY}}, the Pokémon groomers {{OBP|Jessica|XY008}} and [[Sherman]] showed their craft in ''[[XY008|Grooming Furfrou!]]''. {{an|Bonnie}} also acts similar to a groomer, and can often be seen brushing the fur of her brother and friends' Pokémon. {{an|Serena}} is also shown | With the introduction of [[Pokémon Contest]]s in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, Pokémon grooming became more common as {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s must care for their Pokémon's appearance to improve their chances of succeeding in these competitions. [[Drew]] and {{an|Dawn}} have been shown cleaning and brushing their Pokémon. In addition, feeding [[Pokéblock]]s and [[Poffin]]s to Pokémon is said to keep them healthy and enhance their appearances. | ||
In ''[[DP160|A Marathon Rivalry!]]'', [[Team Rocket]] disguised themselves as Pokémon groomers during the [[Pokéathlon]] in [[Camellia Town]]. They used the same [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]] used to torture [[Kaiser]] in the banned episode [[EP035]] in order to massage Pokémon who entered the competition. | |||

Generally, whenever the topic of grooming comes up in the anime, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] demonstrate a passion for the craft and will use it as a front for their latest scheme. However, their styling tends to be portrayed as tacky and with no regard to the Pokémon's happiness. | Generally, whenever the topic of grooming comes up in the anime, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] demonstrate a passion for the craft and will use it as a front for their latest scheme.
