PI (Trainer class): Difference between revisions

From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

(The most up-to-date name is Gamer again now. Also, I think it's more representative of the class than "PI".)

A '''Gamer''' (Japanese: '''ギャンブラー''' ''Gambler'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation I]] games. In Generations I, {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, they are depicted as old men with dice and a dice cup. In [[Generation IV]], they are depicted as young men in trenchcoats flipping coins.


A '''Gambler''', '''Gamer''', or '''PI''' (Japanese: '''ギャンブラー''' ''Gambler'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that first debuted in the [[Generation I]] games.  In Generations I and {{Gen|III}}, they are depicted as old men with dice and a dice cup.  In [[Generation IV]], they are depicted as young men in trenchcoats with coins.
While they were known as '''Gamblers''' in Generation I, this was changed to Gamer in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen|s}}, [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu!, and Let's Go, Eevee!]] to avoid gambling references. As a result, some jokes were lost, such as in FireRed and LeafGreen when Gamer Rich describes himself as a "rambling, gaming dude" instead of a "rambling, gambling dude." In the English releases of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the Trainer class name was changed once again to '''PI''' ({{wp|private investigator}}), likely because of the trenchcoat's stereotypical association with detectives allowing for hiding the censorship, but all their dialogue still revolves around gambling. PIs can also appear in [[Johto]]'s {{gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}}.

In all games since [[Generation IV]], they exclusively use various Pokémon that tend to rely on luck over skill specializing in [[one-hit knockout move]]s such as {{m|Horn Drill}}. In the {{gdis|Battle Tower|IV}} and {{gdis|Battle Frontier|IV}}, all their Pokémon know either a one-hit knockout move or a move that involves the user [[fainting]], such as {{m|Destiny Bond}} or {{m|Explosion}}. In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], their Pokémon are several levels higher than other comparable Trainers' in the routes they're in to further increase the odds of their one-hit knockout moves connecting.


In all games, they use various Pokémon, but tend to rely on luck rather than skill. They mostly use [[one-hit knockout move]]s such as {{m|Horn Drill}}, along with moves that also knock out the user but not always the opponent, such as {{m|Explosion}}.
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], Gamers will award three {{i|Poké Ball}}s along with [[prize money]] upon being defeated.

A Gamer (Japanese: ギャンブラー Gambler) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation I games. In Generations I, III, and VII, they are depicted as old men with dice and a dice cup. In Generation IV, they are depicted as young men in trenchcoats flipping coins.

While they were known as Gamblers in Generation I, this was changed to Gamer in Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, Let's Go, Pikachu!, and Let's Go, Eevee! to avoid gambling references. As a result, some jokes were lost, such as in FireRed and LeafGreen when Gamer Rich describes himself as a "rambling, gaming dude" instead of a "rambling, gambling dude." In the English releases of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, the Trainer class name was changed once again to PI (private investigator), likely because of the trenchcoat's stereotypical association with detectives allowing for hiding the censorship, but all their dialogue still revolves around gambling. PIs can also appear in Johto's Battle Frontier.

In all games since Generation IV, they exclusively use various Pokémon that tend to rely on luck over skill specializing in one-hit knockout moves such as Horn Drill. In the Battle Tower and Battle Frontier, all their Pokémon know either a one-hit knockout move or a move that involves the user fainting, such as Destiny Bond or Explosion. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, their Pokémon are several levels higher than other comparable Trainers' in the routes they're in to further increase the odds of their one-hit knockout moves connecting.

In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Gamers will award three Poké Balls along with prize money upon being defeated.
