Many Trainers leave home at about the age of ten, sometimes accompanied with a [[starter Pokémon]] obtained from a [[Pokémon Professor]]. Many will travel around one or more [[region]]s, doing such things as gathering information for a [[Pokédex]], perfecting their technique, collecting [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s, and working to become a [[Pokémon Master]]. No matter what their specialties or aims, there is one code that they all follow—when two Trainers make eye contact, they must have a {{pkmn|battle}}.

In the games, Pokémon Trainer (rendered as "{{PK}}{{MN}} Trainer" until [[Generation VI]], in which the full title "Pokémon Trainer" is written out) is used as the Trainer class for certain storyline characters. These opponents tend to be the most powerful non-arena Trainers the player will face, notably including [[rival]]s (except {{ga|Blue}} and {{ga|Silver}}, who are instead outright referred to as rivals). This class is used for every opponent in link battles and the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], {{DL|Battle Tree|special Trainers}} in the [[Battle Tree]], {{DL|Battle Agency|Bosses}} of the [[Battle Agency]], as well as the following characters:
