A '''Reporter''' (Japanese: '''レポーター''' ''Reporter'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation IV]] games. They are young women working as television reporters.


They specialize in {{t|Flying}} and {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.
In Generations IV and VIII, they specialize in {{t|Flying}}- and {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.  


==Appearance==
Reporters are the female counterparts of {{tc|Cameraman|Cameramen}}. When paired with Cameramen in [[Double Battle]]s, they are called {{tc|Interviewers}}. In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], they appear exclusively as a part of this Trainer class, except in the {{gal|Battle Tower}}.
