A '''Maid''' (Japanese: '''メイド''' ''Maid'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in {{v2|Platinum}}. They are depicted as young women in typical maid servant clothing.


Their respective names are '''Hannah''' (ハンナ), '''Sophie''' (ソフィ), '''Emily''' (エミリ), '''Helen''' (ヘレン) and '''Claire''' (クレア). Non-Japanese names were probably chosen for them to depict them as stereotypical foreign maids.
They appear in {{v2|Platinum}} in [[Mr. Backlot]]'s {{si|Pokémon Mansion|mansion}} when the player decides to take the '''5-Maid Knockout Exact-Turn Attack Challenge'''. Its objective is to beat all five maids in a certain amount of turns. The prize for winning the challenge is a battle with {{tc|Lady}} Celeste or {{tc|Rich Boy}} Liam. Each of them has a different lucky color and they specialize in training {{p|Clefairy}}.


==Appearance==
In {{2v2|Black|White}}, they use Pokémon from the {{egg3|Field}}. In the [[Battle Subway]], they specialize in the final evolutions of [[first partner Pokémon]]. In {{pkmn|X and Y}}, they appear in the [[Battle Chateau]] although they appear as a {{tc|Baroness}}, {{tc|Viscountess}}, {{tc|Countess}}, {{tc|Marchioness}} or {{tc|Duchess}}. They also appear in the [[Battle Maison]] going by their original name. They gain a male counterpart in {{tc|Butler}}s.
