What are Pokémon Generation VII Trainers?

Pokémon Generation VII Trainers are those trainers that are found in the Generation VII games – Pokémon Sun and Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon and Let’s Go Pikachu, Let’s Go Eevee. Pokémon Trainers are people who capture and train Pokémon and then compete to become a Champion. Along their journey they compete with other Pokémon trainers. 

 

Trainers are grouped into different classes depending on their ability. There are a total of 56 different Trainer Classes introduced in the Generation VII games. The majority of these are generic trainers that are not individually named but are known by a descriptive noun e.g. Cook or Swimmer. They can be found in many different locations where they challenge the player to a match.

More experienced Trainers become Gym Leaders and these Trainers are named. In the Generation VII games Sun and Moon and Ultra Sun and Moon Gym Leaders are replaced by Trial Captains who set the player Island challenges that have to be completed. There are 7 Generation VII Trainers that are Trial Captains. 

The Elite Four are four very experienced and strong Trainers. These Trainers are also given names. Once the Elite Four are defeated, the player can go on to battle the Champion who is the generally the last Trainer to defeat the Elite Four, but in Sun and Moon and Ultra Sun and Moon Professor Kukui fulfils that role.

Team Skull are malevolent Trainers that are led by boss Guzma. They do not have a specific goal in mind, but are a group of trainers that have failed the Island Challenge and are out to make trouble by stealing Pokémon and cause trouble for the people of Alola.
