An Area Leader (Japanese: エリアリーダー Area Leader) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that debuted in the Generation III games, appearing in Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD. Each Area Leader rules over 10 sections of Mt. Battle and many specialize in a single Pokémon type. In this way, they are the closest thing Orre has to Gym Leaders. After defeating an Area Leader, the player receives Poké Coupons as a reward instead of a Badge. The tenth one faced is known as a Mt BtlMaster, the Area Leader of all of Mt. Battle.

Each Area (with the exception of the first and last) has four leaders in total: three in Colosseum (depending on if Battle Mode or Story Mode is selected), and one in XD. The listing is as follows:

• Area 1: Vander, Vannos, Elion
• Area 2: Arth, Erben, Altor, Eldof
• Area 3: Renson, Leven, Kucher, Taria
• Area 4: Trinch, Slewis, Vernice, Boyden
• Area 5: Zentin, Cryal, Konaik, Calus
• Area 6: Loko, Glydin, Atrice, Hampy
• Area 7: Athey, Vario, Langot, Nocom
• Area 8: Shobon, Dessa, Mortac, Naday
• Area 9: Norus, Axley, Neblek, Ragen
• Area 10: Somek^Colo/Battlus^XD, Infin, Inity

Trivia

• Area Leader Axley's team in Pokémon Colosseum is a reference to the puzzles for unlocking the legendary giants in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire; in addition to including Regirock, Regice, and Registeel themselves, his team contains Wailord, Relicanth, and Flygon. The former two Pokémon were required to complete the first puzzle in the Sealed Chamber, while Flygon was the only species at the time that could learn all of Dig, Strength, and Fly, which were needed for the Sealed Chamber's second puzzle, the Desert Ruins' puzzle, and the Ancient Tomb's puzzle respectively.
• Area Leader Atrice's Tentacruel holds a Pecha Berry, despite being a Poison type and thus immune to poison.
• In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, the Area Leaders for Areas 7 through 9 all use Pokémon that distribute one EV stat only.
  • Nocom, the Area Leader for Area 7, has Pokémon that give out only Special Attack EVs. Furthermore, all of his Pokémon have their Special Attack as their highest stat.
  • Naday, the Area Leader for Area 8, has Pokémon that give out only Attack EVs. Furthermore, all of her Pokémon have their Attack as their highest stat.
  • Ragen, the Area Leader for Area 9, has Pokémon that give out only Defense EVs.
