Pokédex holder
Pokédex holder is the term used by Professor Oak in the Pokémon Adventures manga to describe a Trainer that has been given a Pokédex. These Trainers are often very gifted in one particular area, so Professor Oak bases that as their "special skill". These Trainers all have starter Pokémon except for Yellow. The Pokédex holders have become a very tight knit group with many of them bonding with their cohorts in their regional adventures and later with their seniors and juniors.
In many cases they have been targeted, due to the fact that they were powerful or simply that they had a Pokédex in the first place, making them quite vulnerable. In the FireRed & LeafGreen Chapter, five of the nine Pokédex holders had been turned to stone and were rescued months later by Emerald.
The Pokédex holders are all named for the 13 main series games that are not remakes.
