A '''Newscaster''' (Japanese: '''ニュースキャスター''' ''Newscaster'') is a type of [[Pokémon trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation III]] games, appearing in [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and the [[Generation IV]] games. The newscaster generally has a cameraman with her, and a double battle against the newscaster and the cameraman ensues. Often, any battles against her will be described on TV, with the cameraman apparently showing footage he caught.
