A '''Harlequin''' (Japanese: '''クラウン''' ''Clown'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in the [[Generation V]] games.
 
They are very similar to the {{tc|Clown}} {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}. Several Harlequins can be found in the [[Castelia Gym]]. They are also found balancing on narrow bridges above [[tall grass]]. Many Harlequins use {{type|Bug}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but they may also be seen using a variety of other Pokémon. In the [[Battle Subway]], they specialize in Pokémon that benefit from {{m|Trick Room}}.
 
Upon being spoken to, a Harlequin in [[Castelia City]]'s art gallery will ask the {{player}} to show him a certain type of Pokémon. If that type of Pokémon is shown to him, he will offer the player a [[Berry]] of their choice: ([[Cheri Berry]], [[Chesto Berry]], [[Pecha Berry]], [[Rawst Berry]], [[Aspear Berry]]).


They are similar to the {{tc|Clown}} class.
Another Harlequin in Castelia City, Mr. Lock, is responsible for opening the [[Lock Capsule]]. He can be found in the same building the [[Name Rater]] is in.
