Unlike traditional Pokémon Trainers who focus on battling and capturing Pokémon, Rangers prioritize conservation, rescue operations, and maintaining ecological balance. They are often equipped with a Capture Styler, a device that allows them to temporarily befriend wild Pokémon to assist them in their missions, rather than using Poké Balls. Pokémon Rangers were first introduced in the spin-off game series, Pokémon Ranger, with the first title released in 2006 for the Nintendo DS, expanding the lore beyond the main series games. Their role is crucial in many ecological crises depicted in the anime and games, and they often work in conjunction with regional professors and local authorities. They represent a different philosophy within the Pokémon universe, emphasizing coexistence and protection over competition. Their uniform, often featuring a beret and practical attire, has become iconic, symbolizing their commitment to their environmental duties.
