A School Kid (Japanese: じゅくがえり Juku gaeri, meaning (Child) returning from school) is a type of Pokémon trainer that first debuted in the Generation II games as Schoolboys. In Generation III, female variations started to appear and the class gained a gender neutral name. They are presented as young children carrying briefcases.

Max of the anime is very similar to the male School Kids who appear in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. He may have been based upon them.

They raise a variety of Pokémon.
