Harley (Japanese: ハーリー) is a Coordinator from Slateport City. His Japanese voice actor is 金丸淳一 Junichi Kanemaru, his English voice actors are Andrew Rannells (AG103-AG145) and Bill Timoney (AG145-present) while his Brazilian Portuguese voice actor is Marcelo Campos.

Harley first competed against May in A Cacturne for the Worse!. When the two Coordinators met, Harley was annoyed at May for petty several reasons: she was not familiar with his Cacturne, she called Cacturne "scary," and she spoke as if she was unsure of her statements, specifically regarding cookies Harley offered her. Later, the two competed in a Contest, Harley using Cacturne and May using Bulbasaur. In an attempt to publicly humiliate May, Harley played a recording of Max recalling a time when May was younger and she became stuck in water with a swarm of Tentacool and was extremely frightened. May was embarrassed, but went on to defeat Harley.

Months later, Harley and May met up again in the episodes Hi Ho Silver Wind!, Deceit and Assist!, and Rhapsody in Drew!. Harley pretended that he was friends with May, and she initially believed him. He gave her "advice" to have her Skitty use its Assist move repeatedly to make a good appeal; this resulted in Skitty becoming confused after using Bulbasaur's Petal Dance, having to Doubleslap itself out of confusion. Meanwhile, Drew watched Harley, noticing how he tricked May. Later, May realized Harley's ploy, and soon the two were to battle once again. This time, it was Harley's Cacturne and Banette versus May's Beautifly and Bulbasaur. May won this battle as well, and progressed further into the tournament.

Harley tended to use nicknames for May behind her back. The first was Meno-chan (English equivalent: Miss Tent, Brazilian Portuguese equivalent: Senhorita Stress Miss Stress, Stressadinha Stressed Girl) after embarrassing her with the Tentacool story. The second was Kamo-chan, referring to the word often used at the end of May's sentences in Japanese that can imply unsureness.

Harley has a rather peculiar personality. He is undeniably flamboyant, wearing an outfit similar in appearance to Cacturne. He has very effeminate mannerisms, which include wiggling his hips as he walks and using あたし atashi, the Japanese feminine version of I. He also has a tendency to use select English words intermixed with his normal Japanese speech; for example, he calls Cacturne and Banette my buddies and tells May good morning. Another example of his feminine side is in May, We Harley Drew'd Ya! where Harley cross-dresses as May.

As evidenced by his Contest performances, Harley is extremely scheming, and will attempt to trick or ruin his opponent in order to win.

He has Contest Passes to compete in Hoenn, Kanto, and assumably now Johto as well.
