A Grand Duke (Japanese: グランデューク Grand Duke) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that debuted in Generation VI. This Trainer class is a title of nobility, granted in the Battle Chateau, and Trainers with this class only appear there. Grand Duke is the highest rank of nobility for males, ranking above. They are the male counterparts of the class.
