A Youngster (Japanese: たんパンこぞう Shorts Youngster in Generation I and II, たんぱんこぞう Shorts Youngster in Generation III onward) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that debuted in the Generation I games. They are depicted as average young boys wearing caps (except for Pokémon X and Y, where they sport hooded sweatshirts) and short pants.

They use a variety of Pokémon, but they tend to use common ones that are caught early in their respective games. In Unova and Kalos, a significant amount of Youngsters specialize in Bug-type Pokémon, likely due to the absence of the Bug Catcher class in those regions. Some will give out Ultra Balls when defeated.

Youngsters appear to be the male counterparts of Lasses.

In Pokémon Stadium, they were referred to as Lads.

A Youngster in Pokémon Origins

A Youngster appeared in the Pokémon Origins episode File 1 - Red, using an outfit based on the FireRed and LeafGreen sprite. He challenged Red to a battle but was quickly defeated by Red's Charmander. As Red didn't know that other Trainers' Pokémon couldn't be caught, he tried to catch the Youngster's Nidoran♀, but his Poké Ball bounced off of it, after which the Youngster recalled his Pokémon. For Red's request, he agreed to show him where he caught his Nidoran♀, so that Red could catch one for his own.
