In the Generation IV games, Trainers from the Waiter class are generally rare and those that want to battle can be only be found in the {{Gdis|Battle Tower|IV}} and the {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation IV}}. There are no other Trainers from the Waiter class outside this place that will challenge the player to a battle.  


In the Generation IV games, there is no proper Trainer from the Waiter class, except dummy data. However, this class isn't completely unused, as Waiters can be found in the {{si|Battle Tower}} and the {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation IV}}. A waiter also welcomes the player into the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, but he isn't battled.
