The Winstrate family (Japanese: カチヌキファミリー Kachinuki family) are a family of five who are obsessed with Pokémon battles and battling. The family consists of father Victor, mother Victoria, daughter Vivi, son Vito, and grandmother Vicky. The Winstrates live in a house on Route 111, north of Mauville City. Vito is not at home, however, as he has left to challenge the Pokémon League.
In the games
Winstrate (Japanese: カチヌキさんち Kachinuki Family) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation III games. It refers to members of the Winstrate family, who are found in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire. Unlike most Trainer classes, there is no determined sprite, and each of the Winstrates have the sprite of that of a different Trainer class. The Winstrates challenge passing Trainers to a string of successive Pokémon battles. If they can be defeated, they will yield the Macho Brace they use to toughen up their Pokémon.
According to Vivi, Vito was the best Trainer, followed by Grandma Vicky, herself, her mother, and her father. Vito can be battled on the bottom floor of Victory Road in between two waterfalls near the end of the game, while the other members of the Winstrate family can be found at the southern half of Route 111.

In the anime
In the episode Candid Camerupt, Ash, May, Brock, and Max were lost in the desert and saved by the Winstrate family. After giving them a tour of their house and yard, they decided to challenge them to a 4 on 4 battle. First, Brock battled against Victor. Brock's Mudkip was quickly defeated by Victor's Zigzagoon's Thunderbolt, much to the group's surprise.
Next, May, who used Beautifly, fought against Victoria and her Roselia. May won the round by using a strategy similar to that of the one she used against Drew's Roselia in the Slateport Pokémon Contest, defeating her opponent with Gust and Silver Wind.
In the next round, Max borrowed Ash's Corphish to fight against Vivi and her Marill. Max ordered Corphish to go easy on Marill, but Corphish ignored him and viciously attacked Marill, causing an instant knock out. This gave Max the win, but it was a hollow victory, as he had a crush on Vivi and because of that loss she no longer showed interest in him.
For the final round, Ash and Pikachu went up against Vicky and Camerupt. Unfortunately, as Pikachu's Iron Tail hit Camerupt in the face, it got angry, and started using Eruption and rampaging around, threatening the Winstrate's harvest. Thankfully, Vito, the son of the family, had been watching, and used his Alakazam's Rain Dance to calm down Camerupt. The match between Pikachu and Camerupt was ultimately declared to be a draw. Just then, Team Rocket arrived and attempted to steal Pikachu, but thanks to Vito, the villains were sent blasting off again. Afterwards, the group went on their way.

- The German, Italian, and Spanish translations of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald may not have caught on to Vito's relationship to the Winstrate family, as he is given a name that breaks from the family naming pattern in those translations.
