Skyler (Japanese: トビオ Tobio) is a character of the day in the Pokémon anime. He first appeared in The Big Balloon Blow-Up. His dream is to become a professional hot air balloon pilot. He is voiced by 亀井芳子 Yoshiko Kamei in Japanese.

He convinced Ash and his friends to participate in the Hot Air Balloon Race. His father, Tenma, lent Ash and friends a Pikachu shaped balloon. During the course of the race Team Rocket had sabotaged many of the competition's balloons and then cheated by using a rocket launcher on Ash's Noctowl and Pikachu. Skyler used his Fearow's Drill Peck to destroy Team's Rocket rocket launcher and save Ash's Pokémon.

He tied for first place with Ash; they won the first place prize, a hot air balloon engine. However, Ash gave it to Skyler to help fulfill his dreams of becoming a professional hot air balloon pilot.
