A Cyclist (Japanese: サイクリング Cycling) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation IV games. They are young men and women on bicycles, and wear Lycra. Strangely, these cyclists are not wearing helmets or other protective clothing.

They generally use a variety of Pokémon, but tend to favor Flying-, Fire-, and Electric-types. They seem to be the Generations IV and V form of the Generation III Triathlete.
