A Hiker (Japanese: やまおとこ Alpinist) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation I games. They appear as large, bearded men carrying a walking stick and hiking gear. In the first two generations, they appear to be wearing a hard hat for protection. On the following generations, they wear a hat more associated with alpinists instead, and also carry a large backpack.

They specialize in a combination of Fighting-, Ground-, and Rock-type Pokémon that are common in mountains and caves, such as Onix, Machop, and Geodude, although not all of them exclusively train those types.

Hiker Andy

Hiker Andy makes an appearance in VS Cottonee where he accepts a challenge from beginning Trainer Black. They have a Triple Battle and because of the heat emitted from Black's Tepig, Tep, Andy gets overheated and runs away to cool himself down with water. When Andy comes back, he becomes disheartened when he finds his Pokémon defeated by Black. Disappointed, he decides that he should quit being a Trainer, a decision that Black is shocked to hear.

Andy reveals to Black that when he was younger he wanted to challenge the Pokémon League, however, he has a weakness to heat and because of it he decided to not go through with it. Suddenly, the leftover flames made in the battle cause the whole field to catch ablaze. With Andy's help, Black is able to put all of the flames out. Black tells Andy that it was his Cottonee was the cause of the fire because it was trying to help its Trainer by trying to get over its weakness to Fire-type moves. Feeling happy over what his Pokémon would do for him, Andy is convinced by Black to start his dream once again and they say their goodbyes.
