A '''Tuber''' (Japanese: '''うきわボーイ''' ''Inner Tube Boy'' and '''うきわガール''' ''Inner Tube Girl'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in the [[Generation III]] games. They are young children in inner tubes that are learning to swim. They come in male and female versions. They appear to be younger versions of {{tc|Swimmer}}s. The [[prize money]] for defeating them is generally low.
