'''Phoebe''' (Japanese: '''フヨウ''' ''Fuyō'') is a {{pkmn|master}} {{type2|Ghost}} {{pkmn|Trainer}} and member of the [[Hoenn]] [[Elite Four]]. 

==In the games==
In [[Generation III]], Phoebe is the second member of the [[Hoenn]] [[Elite Four]].

Phoebe is the second of the Elite Four.  Her strategy is to confuse and confound with Pokémon she considers undefinable.

All of her five Pokémon are pure Ghosts, with the exception of {{p|Sableye}} (the other being {{type2|Dark}}). She apparently has a grandmother at [[Mt. Pyre]] and she hopes she's doing well. It is unknown who her grandmother is, but it is quite likely that she is the old lady the guards the [[Red Orb]] and the [[Blue Orb]] at the top of Mt. Pyre.

She also claims to have the ability to communicate with {{t2|Ghost}} Pokémon, presumably in a similar fashion that {{t2|Psychic}} trainers communicate with their Pokémon through telepathy (i.e. {{Anabel}}, [[Sabrina]] etc.)

===Quotes===
''"Ahahaha! I'm Phoebe of the Elite Four. I did my training on Mt. Pyre. While I trained, I gained the ability to communicate with Ghost-type Pokémon. Yes, the bond I developed with Pokémon is extremely tight. So, come on, just try and see if you can even inflict damage on my Pokémon!"''

''"Oh, darn. I've gone and lost."''

''"There's a definite bond between you and your Pokémon, too. I didn't recognize it, so it's only natural that I lost. Yup, I'd like to see how far your bond will carry you. Go ahead, move to the next room."''
==== Trainer's Eyes ====
'''Strategy''' -
Confuse and confound 

'''Trainer's Pokémon''' -
There's nothing definite.

I wonder how my grandma at Mt. Pyre is doing?
