A Clown (Japanese: ピエロ Pierrot in Generation IV, クラウン Clown in Generation V) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation IV games. They are found throughout Jubilife City, but only Clown Lee from the TV station can be battled in Generation IV. They are men in orange clown suits. A Coin Case can be received through a clown in Veilstone City.

True to their costumes, they mostly use Mr. Mime and Mime Jr. in battle.

They are similar to the Juggler class.
