They are Trainers who frequently travel around the world to meet new Trainers and take part in [[Pokémon League]] competitions. In Generation I, the Cooltrainers are shown to be carrying whips, which were also used by {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s at the time. In Generation II onward, they no longer carry whips. They tend to have unusual hair colors, like blue, green and purple.

They generally use strong and [[evolution|evolved]] Pokémon, have a diversified and balanced [[party]], and their artificial intelligence is generally very good compared to other Trainer classes in their games. Like [[Gym Leader]]s, they often have healing items, and they also use type advantages to their advantage. They are usually seen during the mid to last part of the game in [[Victory Road]], as they are presumably on their way to challenge the [[Elite Four]]. In the [[Battle Subway]], some of them employ a set strategy revolving around the Ability {{a|Intimidate}}. In [[Generation VI]]'s [[Battle Maison]], they have unspecialized teams that may occasionally include {{p|Latias}} or {{p|Latios}}.
