A '''type specialist''' is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who specializes in just one [[type]]. These Trainers are most commonly [[Gym Leader]]s or members of the [[Elite Four]]. There are also some [[Trainer class]]es that specialize in one type, such as the {{tc|Bug Catcher}}s who specialize solely in training and battling with {{type|Bug}} Pokémon.
A '''type expert''' (Japanese: '''タイプエキスパート''' ''type expert'') is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who specializes in just one [[type]]. These Trainers are most commonly [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Trial Captain]]s, [[island kahuna]]s, or members of the [[Elite Four]]. There are also some {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es that specialize in one type, such as {{tc|Bug Catcher}}s, who specialize solely in training and battling with {{type|Bug}} Pokémon.


Some notable type specialists include [[Brock]], the [[Pewter City]] Gym Leader who specializes in only {{type|Rock}} Pokémon, and [[Misty]], the [[Cerulean City]] Gym Leader who specializes in only {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
In the [[Pokémon anime]], two former {{ashfr|traveling companions}} of {{Ash}} aim to become type experts, with {{an|Misty}} wanting to specialize in the {{t|Water}} type and {{an|Iris}} aspiring to be a great {{type|Dragon}} specialist. In {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, the [[Type Expert Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] features type experts from all of the [[core series]] [[region]]s known at the time.

Nanu, Grimsley, and their Dark-type Pokémon in the Pokémon Masters Trailer

A type expert (Japanese: タイプエキスパート type expert) is a Pokémon Trainer who specializes in just one type. These Trainers are most commonly Gym Leaders, Trial Captains, island kahunas, or members of the Elite Four. There are also some Trainer classes that specialize in one type, such as Bug Catchers, who specialize solely in training and battling with Bug-type Pokémon.

In the Pokémon anime, two former traveling companions of Ash aim to become type experts, with Misty wanting to specialize in the Water type and Iris aspiring to be a great Dragon-type specialist. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, the Type Expert Tournament at the Pokémon World Tournament features type experts from all of the core series regions known at the time.
