A Janitor (Japanese: 清掃員 Cleaner) is a type of Trainer class introduced in Generation V. They are old men dressed in green janitor outfits that typically hold mops.
Since their jobs revolve around garbage collection, they tend to use Poison-type Pokémon that represent filth, such as Trubbish and Koffing, along with Pokémon that love to clean, such as Minccino. In Generation VII, Janitors outside of battle are commonly seen with Alolan Grimer, relying on their garbage-based diet to help with their jobs. In the Battle Subway, they specialize in Pokémon sets meant for Double Battles, even in the Single Trains. In the Battle Royal Dome, Janitors specialize in rain-based teams.

In the manga
Pokémon Adventures
Black & White arc
Janitor Geoff (Japanese: シンノスケ Shinnosuke) is a recurring character in Pokémon Adventures, debuting in A Direct Attack and a Daunting Defense. Black and White first encountered Geoff on the Skyarrow Bridge after being attacked by a mysterious Pokémon on their way to Castelia City. Geoff berated the two for getting the bridge dirty and challenged Black to a battle. After losing, Geoff revealed that he is actually the president of the Battle Company, and that the Pokémon that had attacked them was the Legendary Pokémon Virizion.
In Cold Hard Truth, Geoff teamed up with several other Trainers Black had met on his journey to face the Seven Sages in battle during Team Plasma's attack on the Pokémon League and rescue the kidnapped Gym Leaders. Eventually they succeeded, then proceeding to help defeat the Team Plasma Grunts attacking the League.
Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon arc
In Truth and the Mastermind Behind Team Skull, a Janitor was briefly shown being intimidated by the Ultra Beasts that showed up in Alola.
Pokémon
Trubbish is the first Pokémon that Geoff is seen to own. It is used to battle Black and used its terrible smell to prevent his Pokémon from getting close to it. It was eventually defeated by Black's Tep after it managed to plug its nose to block the smell. At the Pokémon League, Trubbish was used to help rescue the kidnapped Gym Leaders. Once they succeeded, Trubbish helped fight the Team Plasma Grunts attacking innocent bystanders below.
Trubbish's known moves are Acid Spray and Clear Smog and its Ability is Stench.
Cinccino is the second Pokémon that Geoff is seen to own. He's owned since it was a Minccino. It is used to help Geoff clean the bridge with its tail and was used to battle Black. Its fur prevented it from being hurt by Electric-type moves but was defeated once Black devised a technique to get around it.
Cinccino's only known move is Tail Slap and its Ability is Technician.
Trivia
- Janitor Geoff in Pokémon Black and White gives an Exp. Share as a reward for being defeated in addition to the reward money. He says that as the president of the Battle Company, it is his duty. He also says he likes observing his employees while disguised.
- The Janitor Trainer class is one of two classes who give out different amounts of monetary awards, with the other being the Clerk ♂ class. However, this is due to one Janitor being a company president in disguise, and the rest of the class are real janitors, obviously creating a fiscal mismatch between the two. On the other hand, the Clerk ♂ class has their socio-economic status divided by their sprites.
