They appear as large men who (except in [[Generation III]]), have beards with a walking stick and hiking gear. In the first two generations, they appear to be wearing a hard hat for protection. On the following generations, they wear a hat more associated with alpinists instead, and also carry a large backpack. They specialize in a combination of {{t|Fighting}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, and {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon that are common in mountains and caves, such as {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Machop}}, and {{p|Geodude}}, although not all of them exclusively train those types. | ||
As the name would imply, Hikers are usually found in caves or mountainous areas, places where hiking is common. In [[Kanto]], they can be found in [[Mt. Moon]], the [[Rock Tunnel]] and the contiguous [[Route]]s {{rtn|9|Kanto}} and {{rtn|10|Kanto}}, and, somewhat uncharacteristically, Routes {{rtn|13|Kanto}} and {{rtn|25|Kanto}} (as these routes are not mountainous; on the contrary, they are both located by the sea). In [[Johto]], Hikers are located in [[Union Cave]] and the contiguous {{rt|33|Johto}}, Route {{rtn|42|Johto}} (near the entrance to [[Mt. Mortar]]), and Routes {{rtn|45|Johto}} and {{rtn|46|Johto}} (near the entrances to the [[Dark Cave]]). In [[Hoenn]], they can be found in {{rt|112|Hoenn}} (near the entrances to the [[Fiery Path]]), the [[Rusturf Tunnel]] and the nearby {{rt|116|Hoenn}}, {{rt|114|Hoenn}} (to the north of [[Meteor Falls]]), and in the [[Jagged Pass]], as well as, exclusively in {{game|Emerald}}, in the [[Rustboro Gym|Rustboro]] and [[Lavaridge Gym]]s. In the [[Sevii Islands]], Hikers appear in the [[Ruin Valley]] and [[Water Path]]. They appear in [[Sinnoh]] in the Routes directly east and west of [[Mt. Coronet]] (Routes {{rt|207|Sinnoh}}, {{rt|208|Sinnoh}} and {{rt|211|Sinnoh}}), as well as in [[Wayward Cave]] and the nearby {{rt|206|Sinnoh}}. <!--Sinnoh list may be incomplete--> In [[Unova]], Hikers appear in [[Mistralton Cave]], [[Chargestone Cave]], and [[Twist Mountain]]. Atypically, they also appear in Routes {{rtn|10|Unova}}, {{rtn|14|Unova}}, {{rtn|15|Unova}}, and {{rtn|18|Unova}}. None of these Routes are close to a cave or mountain, though they all have large cliffs and high ledges. | As the name would imply, Hikers are usually found in caves or mountainous areas, places where hiking is common.
