He is named '''Calem''' (Japanese: '''カルム''' ''Calme'') when he appears as a [[non-player character]] in the [[Generation VI]] games. The same name would be reused for merchandise and in the [[Pokémon Masters EX]] mobile game. Pre-release media for {{g|X and Y}} referred to Calem as '''Xavier''' (Japanese: '''エックス''' ''X'').

'''[[Vaniville Town]]'''
[[File:Pokémon Trainer XY 3DS trophy SSB4.png|200px|thumb|left|The Pokémon Trainer (Pokémon X & Y) from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]
:''"Welcome to [[Vaniville Town]]. The name's Calem. I live next door."''
====[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]====
:''"The renowned [[Professor Sycamore]] lives here in the [[Kalos]] region. I heard he has a task for five kids including us. But I'm surprised he knows who you are. You did just move here to Vaniville, after all."''
Calem appears alongside Serena as a trophy in the 3DS version. In North American copies of the game, this trophy is labeled as ''Pokémon Trainer (Pokémon X & Y)'', in Europe, this trophy is called ''Trainers (Pokémon X and Y)''. Calem's Red Outdoors Cap and Wide-Frame Sunglasses are also part of one of Pikachu's alternative costumes.


'''[[Aquacorde Town]]'''
=====Trophy information=====
:''"This is the meeting place, <player>. I'll introduce you. Everyone, this is <player>."''
'''NA:''' ''We suppose it's possible you've missed out up till now, so let us explain: in Pokémon, you set out from your hometown on a Pokémon journey, catching Pokémon and fighting battles with them. In Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, you reach the next town and find yourself embroiled in a tale of... No, wait–no spoilers!''
:''"So, <player>. This is [[Tierno]]. He can really tear up the the dance floor... And this is [[Trevor]]. He's a little shy, but he always gets perfect scores on his tests..."''
:''"You should decide what we call you."''
:''"Good to meet you, <starter>. My name's Calem. Because of you, I can finally become a real [[Pokémon Trainer]]. Thanks!"''
:''"In [[Kalos]], kids are chosen to carry a [[Pokédex]] and go on an adventure. But you need to give that letter to your {{kal|Grace|mom}} before you do any of that!"''


'''{{rt|2|Kalos}}'''
'''PAL:''' ''If you've been living under a rock for some years now, let us explain. In Pokémon, you start from your home town on your own Pokémon journey, catching Pokémon and fighting battles with them. In Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, you reach the next town and find yourself embroiled in a tale of... Well, we won't spoil it for you.''
:''"You can talk about my parents if you want, but it doesn't have anything to do with me. I'm going to catch one now, so watch carefully!"''
:''"Make sure to weaken a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} before throwing a [[Poké Ball]] at it."''
:''"Seriously, [[Shauna]]? Did you forget already? Your Pokémon is in a Poké Ball, right? Anyway, I'll share some {{i|Poké Ball}}s with you two."''
:''"If you throw a Poké Ball at a Pokémon around here, you'll probably catch it."''
:''"Catching a wild Pokémon makes your Pokémon stronger, too. Be seeing you."''


'''[[Santalune Forest]]'''
====[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]====
:''"So, you got here first. Seems like I'm neighbors with someone who has a lot of potential."''
While Calem himself does not appear directly, a palette swap color scheme based on Calem's design, with a darker-skinned appearance, appears for the male {{OBP|Pokémon Trainer|Super Smash Bros.}}, who is an incarnation of {{ga|Red}}. Pikachu keeps the outfit based on Calem from 3DS and Wii U.


'''{{rt|3|Kalos}}'''
===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
:''"I'm going to go to [[Santalune City]]'s Gym and on to the [[Gym Leader]]. So you know, Pokémon Trainers test their strength by battling with the Gym Leaders in each Pokémon Gym."''
{{main|Calem (Masters)}}
:''"I learned a lot from others. Here, I have something for you guys-- "[[Adventure Guide|Adventure Rules]]." I wrote down 10 different tips every Trainer should know. Here's one for you."''
Calem, who is based on the [[rival]], forms a [[sync pair]] with {{p|Espurr}} and its evolved form {{p|Meowstic}}, along with {{Shiny}} {{p|Greninja}} and {{p|Fennekin}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. Calem joins the {{player}} after completing the twentieth chapter of the [[PML Arc]].
:''"Look in those rules if you're confused about something."''


'''{{DL|Lumiose City|Sycamore Pokémon Lab|Sycamore Pokémon Laboratory}}'''
Calem has also made notable appearances in the game's Main Stories: the PML Arc, [[Legendary Adventures]], and the [[Villain Arc]].
:''"Sorry to have kept you waiting."''
:''"It's OK. Take your time."''
:''"I think being different from others is a part of what makes me special. Mastering [[Mega Evolution]] will definitely set me apart from other Trainers!"''

:''"I'm Calem. It's a pleasure. This..."''
:''"Hmm... I guess Pokémon Trainers all battle each other, no matter who they are. Oh, yeah. I wanted to ask you something, neighbor. How about you and I compete and see who ends up stronger? I know we set off on our journey just after you arrived in Vaniville, but we are neighbors, and having a competition with you sound like fun. I won't lose though. Just so you know."''

:''"OK, let's battle. Tierno and Trevor, you'll battle against <player's nickname> and me!"''
====Pokémon Generations====
[[File:Calem PG.png|thumb|250px|Calem in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]
Calem appeared in ''[[PG18|The Redemption]]'', where he was seen at the parade in [[Lumiose City]] after he had become the {{pkmn|Champion}} of [[Kalos]]. During the parade, he was challenged by [[AZ]], whom he battled and defeated.


*After winning
Much like the other [[player character]]s depicted in [[Pokémon Generations]], Calem doesn't have any lines of dialogue.
:''"Everyone sure has a different approach to being a Trainer. Well, that was fun, but I guess we should head to [[Ambrette Town]]."''


'''Ambrette Town'''
=====Pokémon=====
:''"Hey, neighbor!"''
{{TrainerPoké
:''"This is Ambrette Town. You go through the aquarium to get to [[Cyllage City]]. But first, we should go to the {{DL|Ambrette Town|Fossil Lab}} and have them tell us about [[Fossil]]s. Maybe we'll learn something about those mysterious stones related to Mega Evolution."''

:''"Wait for me."''
:''"I'm Calem, and this is <player>. We're researching Mega Evolution. Do you know anything about it?"''
:''"is that so? Well, if you don't know anything about Mega Evolution..."''

:''"Never mind... Guess he was so absorbed with looking for Fossils he didn't notice."''
|desc={{p|Charizard}} was seen next to Calem during the parade.
:''"I'll take this one, then."''
:''"So, we went looking for the assistant, and we found that suspicious group called Team Flare as well... Still, with those Team Flare people running around, it would be better to train more so I can travel safely. I guess the best thing to do to get tougher is challenge the Cyllage City Gym."''
 
'''[[Geosenge Town]]'''
:''"<player>, was someone from Team Flare here just now?
:: '''Yes''': ''"You said he was here... But he isn't anymore, is he? There's only a dead end up ahead... I wonder where that Team Flare guy went..."''
:: '''No''': ''"You don't have to worry about me. I chased a Team Flare Grunt here. But there's only a dead end up ahead... I wonder where that Team Flare guy went..."''
 
'''{{DL|Shalour City|Tower of Mastery}}'''
:''"How are you and your Pokémon?"''
:''"Some Pokémon evolve through friendship, and others only evolve in certain places"''
:''"Trust... In other words, the bond between Trainer and Pokémon!"''
 
*Before battle
:''"<player>, let's battle for it! No matter what the reason is, a battle is a good chance for us to compete and see who Vaniville Town's best Trainer really is!"''
:''"How about it?
:: '''Yes''': ''"I will master Mega Evolution and set myself apart from other Trainers. I'll also do it for my Pokémon--we've come so far together, and they never stopped believing in me, their Trainer. You and your Pokémon are stronger.. I can tell just by looking at you. But I'm not going to lose. The winner of this battle will be me!"''
:: '''No''': ''"You're very cautious, aren't you?"''


*Being defeated
None of Charizard's moves are known.}}
:''"Your bonds with your Pokémon are really strong. I don't like losing much, but... I'm sure you'll be able to Mega Evolve your Pokémon!"''


*After battle
====GOTCHA!====
:''"I'll bet the Professor will be happy if you master Mega Evolution. That's one way you can show mastery as a Trainer."''
Calem briefly appeared in [[GOTCHA!]].


'''[[Shalour City]] (after the player gets the [[Rumble Badge]])'''
====Pokémon Evolutions====
:''"Here take this."''
[[File:Calem Evolutions.png|thumb|250px|Calem in [[Pokémon Evolutions]]]]
:''"If you use the HM [[HM03|Surf]], you can travel over the water. I'll challenge you to a battle again sometime. That's the best way to get strong, after all. I was lucky enough to meet you and end up traveling together, so I'd better take advantage of the opportunity to battle."''
Calem appeared in ''[[PE03|The Visionary]]'', where he defeated [[Lysandre]] at the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]]. When Lysandre started firing the [[ultimate weapon]], Calem escaped the blast with {{ga|Serena}} and [[Shauna]]. Afterwards, they witnessed how the ultimate weapon sunk back into the ground.

'''Coumarine City'''
Xerneas's only known move is {{m|Moonblast}}.}}
*Before battle
:''"Sorry to keep you waiting. The reason I wanted to meet you is I want to see Mega Evolution in action. Whether you use it or not is up to you. But since I'm a Pokémon Trainer, I want to see things that make Pokémon special."''

:''"Oof. I'd kind of forgotten how strong you are."''
[[File:X Adventures.png|thumb|150px|Calem's Pokémon Adventures counterpart, X]]
====Pokémon Adventures====
{{main|X (Adventures)}}
Calem's counterpart in [[Pokémon Adventures]] is X. When he was young, he won a Kalos Junior Tournament. However, the pressure of being a celebrity at a young age had its effect on him and he became a shut-in.


*After being defeated
====Let's Play the Pokémon Card Game XY!====
:''"Even though we set off from Vaniville Town at the same time, there's a gap in our strength. Do you have something I don't? I guess I have to think about that... Well, good luck with your Gym Battle."''

:''"Not bad, Shauna! Well, [[Clemont]] was the one who made it. But you brought it here! So, I guess both of you are pretty great! We're finally here. The Legendary Pokémon is inside. Let's save it together!"''
 
<small>'''Legendary Pokémon Room'''</small>
:''"So this is the place... It's really hard to breathe in here. Feels like there's a weight on my chest..."''
:''"It's the Poké Ball Factory all over again... <Player>! You take care of things here! I'll protect Shauna!"''
 
*After the player caught {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}}/{{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}}
:''"Great! Now they can't use the ultimate weapon."''
:''"The Legendary Pokémon is gone, so you can't use the ultimate weapon anymore, right? You don't have to worry about the future all alone... Shouldn't everyone work together to make a beautiful world?"''
:''"<player>! Shauna! Let's get out of here!"''
 
'''Geosenge Town (after the player has defeated Team Flare)
:''"Thank you... We all go out in one piece. Are you guys all OK, Tierno?"''
:''"Thanks, <player's nickname>. I respect you as a friend. That's why I want to beat you in battle as your rival!"''
 
'''[[Kalos|Victory Road]]'''
*Before battle
:''"<player>! Wait up!"''
:''"I've been thinking ever since that incident in Geosenge. Lysandre chose only Team Flare. You and I chose everyone but Team Flare. But since our positions forced our hands, you can't really say any of us were right. So maybe... If both sides have something to say, it's best to meet halfway... So I decided that from now on, I don't want to battle just to win but to see how you and your Pokémon think and feel! And that's the kind of Pokémon battle I'm challenging you to now!"''
 
*Being defeated
:''"I'm still no match for you... You know, it's because I met you that I was able to get this far... But our journey's just getting started. Who knows what heights we'll reach!"''
 
*After battle
:''"It's hard to put a finger on where, but I think you and I are alike. And that's why I didn't want to lose to you. But I think the reason we're alike is because we have so much in common. I'm really happy that we're friends."''
:''"I'm renewing my rivalry with you! Since you're my rival, I hope you get stronger and stronger as a Pokémon Trainer. But we'll keep getting stronger and stronger, too! I can master the power that comes from the bond between me and my Pokémon, just like you did! Power right on through the [[Pokémon League]]! I know you can do it!"''
 
'''[[Kiloude City]]'''
*Before the first battle
:''"<player's nickname> Battle with me! My new partner can do something that'll really surprise you!
:: '''Yes''': ''"En garde!"''
:: '''No''': ''"That's pretty cold."''
 
*After being defeated for the first time
:''"<player's nickname>, this is for you!"''
:''"That's right. It's Absolite. I found two of them. After everything we said to Lysandre, it just wouldn't be right if I didn't share one with you. I have a message from Professor Sycamore. He says he may have unraveled part of the secret of the Mega Ring and the Mega Stones. He should be waiting by the sundial in Anistar City.
 
*Before subsequent battles
:''"Hey, <player's nickname>? Would you battle with us?
:: '''Yes''': "My Pokémon and I will show you what make us special! En garde!"''
:: '''No''': "That's pretty cold."
 
*Being defeated in subsequent battles
:''"I'll think about what you did well and use this loss to fuel my desire to improve."''
 
*After being defeated in subsequent battles
:''"When we first set off on our journey, I though it was really important how different I was from everyone else. But that doesn't really matter, does it? Of course I'm different from others. I'm the only me!"''

:''"Um... You wouldn't happen to be <player>, would you?"''
:''"Oh, I'm Calem. I recently came to [[Pasio]] from the Kalos region."''
:''"I heard a little about you from [[Cynthia]] earlier. I was hoping maybe we could have a battle!"''
:''"I dunno about that. The way you battle on Pasio is pretty different from how we do it in Kalos... I'm still trying to get used to it."''
:''"I may be a new arrival to Pasio, but I'm no newbie when it comes to Pokémon training."''
:''"Time to see for myself whether your skills live up to Cynthia's description!"''
 
*'''Calem's Motives'''
:''"I told you I'm not a newbie when it comes to Pokémon training..."''
:''"but you definitely impressed me back there. I can see how you've made it this far in the tournament."''
:''"Well, [[Espurr]]... They're definitely in the running for the championship... We've got some decisions to make."''
:''"Well, it's just... I actually have a couple reasons for coming to find you today."''
:''"You've all heard of [[Team Break]], right?"''
:''"Well, it seems they're back in business. They've started stealing Pokémon again."''
:''"I was planning to infiltrate one of their hideouts, but Cynthia told me to hold off."''
:''"That's when she told me about you all... She said you might be willing to help."''
:''"But aren't you supposed to be preparing for the finals? Are you sure you want to get involved?"''
::'''Of course we'll help!''': ''"No hesitation at all, huh? Cynthia was right... You've definitely got some resolve."''
:''"Thanks, everyone. Just do me a favor and don't go too overboard, OK? You've still got a tournament to win."''
:''"Right, then. Let's head to that hideout."''
 
:''"That's one of Team Break's hideouts... They're keeping their stolen Pokémon in that cave."''
:''"Espurr and I can handle the guards. Wait here. We'll take care of them."''
:''"... ... ..."''
:''"All right, let's do this. Come on, everyone!"''
 
*'''Friendly Concern'''
:''"Hmm... I feel like I should have run into some of those stolen Pokémon by now...  How much deeper does this cave go?"''
:''"Oops. Sorry, I'm not really used to working in big groups."''
:''"Maybe... In any case, we need to keep moving."''
 
*'''What Friends Are For'''
:''"No... This isn't over yet!"''
:''"I don't care how strong you are..."''
:''"I won't give up until I rescue those poor Pokémon that you've stolen from their Trainers!"''
:''"..."''
:''"You guys..."''
:''"These thugs are way stronger than we thought... I'll hold them off here!"''
:''"You go on ahead!"''
:''"Just go! Quickly!"''
:''"Wha--?"''
:''"You...are?"''
:''"Ha... Ha ha ha!"''
:''"You're totally right... I can't believe I forgot something so simple."''
:''"Come on, everyone! Let's battle these thugs together--and rescue those stolen Pokémon!"''
::'''Regardless of choice''': ''"All right! Hope you're ready, Team Break!"''

:''"Don't tell me you still haven't learned your lesson!"''
:''"What?!"''
 
:''"Acerola..."''
:''"I guess I wasn't thinking about how the rest of you felt, was I? I just rushed in there headlong."''
:''"I did the same thing to my friend [[Shauna]] once... I regretted it back then, too, but I obviously didn't learn my lesson."''
:''"Sorry, Acerola. I should have paid more attention to how you and the others were feeling."''
:''"You were right there with me, just like a big sister, and I totally ignored your help."''
:''"Remember how I said I had a couple different reasons for wanting to approach your team earlier?"''
:''"Well, one of those reasons was to see if you'd help me take out Team Break... But I was also hoping you might let me join your team."''
:''"There are worse things than having a highly skilled Trainer from Kalos on your team, right?"''

Calem (Japanese: カルム Calme) is the male player character in Pokémon X and Y, serves as the rival in the same games if the player chooses to play as the female character. As a rival, he is one of the player's neighbors and close friends. His female counterpart is Serena.

If playing as Calem, the player character may earn the title of Grand Duke by defeating most of the Trainers in the Battle Chateau. This is the only time the Trainer class Grand Duke appears in game.

Terminology

He is named Calem (Japanese: カルム Calme) when he appears as a non-player character in the Generation VI games. The same name would be reused for merchandise and in the Pokémon Masters EX mobile game. Pre-release media for Pokémon X and Y referred to Calem as Xavier (Japanese: エックス X).

In the core series games

Calem and Serena in the opening of Pokémon X and Y

As the protagonist

Calem is a boy living in Vaniville Town with his friends Serena, Tierno, Trevor, and Shauna. He recently moved into Vaniville Town. His mom owns a Rhyhorn and Fletchling, the latter of which wakes Calem up at the start of the game.

As a non-playable character

Calem and Shauna in Vaniville Town

Calem is a young boy who lives in Vaniville Town when the protagonist moves into town. Calem is the main rival of the character, choosing the first partner Pokémon which is super effective against the player's. He is also the character who teaches the player and Shauna how to catch a Pokémon, catching a Bunnelby with the use of his Fletchling. Soon after, he can be seen in Santalune Forest with the other friends.

Calem is the child of two prominent Pokémon battlers, and is seen as one of the two best battlers of the group of friends, alongside the protagonist.

At Glittering Cave, Calem helps the player defeat Team Flare to save the fossil assistant, and is given the fossil not chosen afterward. He then battles with the player against Tierno and Trevor at Route 7. At the Tower of Mastery in Shalour City, Calem battles the player for the chance to get the Mega Ring.

The next time Calem battles the player is in front of the Coumarine Gym.

Calem challenging the player at Victory Road

When the group of friends meets up and decides to go to the haunted area in Route 14, Calem is the only one of the friends to not go to the house, claiming that he has to train. He then helps the player defeat Team Flare at the Poké Ball Factory.

The next time Calem battles the player is in front of the Anistar Gym. After the player defeats the gym, he will ask for a rematch, but cancels his challenge after Lysandre announces his plan of eradicating all life forms not a part of Team Flare. He then helps the player defeat Team Flare get to the legendary Pokémon and defeat Team Flare for good.

After the player enters the Hall of Fame and battles at the Battle Maison, Calem can be battled in Kiloude City, at which point he has obtained a Mega Ring of his own. When defeated for the first time here, he will give the player an Absolite and tell the player to meet Professor Sycamore in Anistar City. He can be battled at Kiloude City once per day.

Pokémon

As the player character, Calem can have up to all 721 Pokémon available in the Kalos games. As an NPC, he uses a selection of Pokémon through out the story to battle the player, including usage of Mega Evolution. Calem is required to pick between Chespin, Fennekin or Froakie as his first partner Pokémon. As the player, he will choose the Pokémon first, as NPC, Calem will pick the first partner Pokémon with the type advantage over the player.

As the player, he is also required to catch either XerneasX or YveltalY.

Required in story

First partner Pokémon

Tierno will offer Calem one of these three Pokémon at the start of the game under Professor Sycamore. Both as player character and NPC.
