- Thanks for watching! Trainer classes are a fundamental part of Pokémon worldbuilding, yet we don't tend to think too much about them.

I love the Orre trainer classes though. They are so random and funny, and don’t even have a specific type of Pokémon they use, unlike the main series. The Street Performer is one of my favorites, she’s so cute!
Let us not forget the classes such as “Bandana Guy” and “Fun Old Man”
undoubtedly XD and Colo have some really cool stuff in them, but I feel like they're different enough in nature that it's not necessarily like-for-like in comparison
"There is always 7" 😂

knew someone would (and should) comment on this lol
All female swimmers in gen 1 were beautys. That's where all the gen1 beautys went, they became female swimmers in the remakes.
ah! that's interesting, thanks for sharing!
@tortoisecity funfact: in Let's Go they go back to being beautys.
quite a faithful remake in some ways
I feel like the third versions should be counted as well if the remakes are being counted. They’re just as mainline as the rest of the games, and they change up a decent amount of things, especially in Emerald and B2W2. I feel it’d show a more complete picture of these trends.
there's definitely a case for it and I partially agree, but I did take a cursory look at a few while doing this and a lot of the time there was not a large amount of difference, or they added rematches rather than additional trainers, and it just didn't add much to the analysis overall imo. Might still have been cool to do for completeness though. B2W2 probably the most aggressive example, I think, given it's the most different of them imo.
We love your 20 + minute videos ❤
glad someone does, though they're few and far in between
I love how color coded and neat your charts are!
thanks!
I always liked the Bug Maniacs really doubling down from their catching days and becoming actual experts of insects.
I've always thought that was a cool detail too :)
The Hunter and Chaser trainer classes from Colo/XD are my favorite. Their names give so much potential worldbuilding as to how people perceive Pokemon or each other, almost like how the Rocket Grunts used whips in Gen I. Also their designs are awesome
they're designs are pretty sick
Isn't Swimmer in every mainline game up until Scarlet and Violet?
yep, kinda odd that they got rid of swimmer for scavi
trainer classes are my favorite thing to analyze in pokemon (other than the pokemon themselves), my favorite being the strange trainer line (confirmed by the devs) that being

Very interesting worldbuilding and lore packed onto 3 unplayable characters.
absolutely! they add so much to the world around the player without being a focus, but there's so much to think about there
My favourite are the Ace Trainers. They started to utilize a full team and as someone pointed out in a different video, the way they behave they could be the rivals that you would have in a different timeline.
ace trainers are super cool, great to people in the games who are canonically meant to be good at battling and using pokemon other than generic normal type rodents found at the start of the game
Interesting analysis video! Thanks for uploading!
thanks! glad you enjoyed it :)
Great topic!
glad you enjoyed!
Very "cool" results! This is just the kind of pkmn vid I love.
happy that you enjoyed it!
Hex Maniac

Beauty from x/y is hot tho
well
Thank you GPT
the only thing GPT helps with is teaching me to use spreadsheets (it is in my experience really really bad at gathering data for pokemon specifically)
