A Police Officer (Japanese: おまわりさん Police Officer), known as an Officer in Generation II and a Policeman in Generations IV and V, is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation II games. They are police officers, with flashlights and baton, that only battle at night in Generations II and IV. It could be said that their counterpart is the Joggers, who can only be battled in the morning.

They specialize in using Growlithe in Generation II, its remakes, and Sun and Moon, a possible reference to the anime's Officer Jenny. In Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, they use a combination of the Hoothoot and Machop families. In Generations V and VII, they tend to use Pokémon with canine traits, including the aforementioned Growlithe; possibly an allusion to police dogs. In the Battle Subway, they specialize in defensive Pokémon sets primarily relying on status conditions, and in the early stages, Fighting- and Steel-type Pokémon.

Although they aren't Trainers, they also appear as guards to Saffron City and try to arrest a Team Rocket Grunt in Cerulean City in Pokémon Red and Blue (replaced by Officer Jenny in Pokémon Yellow), and their remakes Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen. Another NPC by the name of Officer Johnson plays a minor role in guarding the Cipher members that Duking arrested in Pokémon Colosseum.

Police Officers aside from Officer Jenny have appeared intermittently throughout the anime. Four Police Officers appeared in To Top a Totem!, where one used his Machamp to put some logs back on a villager's cart. Three others later appeared in the same episode and watched as a Yungoos, a Gumshoos, and a Totem Gumshoos fought some Alolan Rattata and Raticate.
