Cipher Admin (Trainer class)

A Cipher Admin (Japanese: シャドー幹部 Shadow Executive) is a type of Pokémon Trainer in the Generation III side series games, first appearing in Pokémon Colosseum. They are high-ranking members of Cipher, who serve as bosses throughout the games. Each Cipher Admin can later be battled in their respective game's final Colosseum; namely, Deep Colosseum in Pokémon Colosseum and Orre Colosseum in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.

In Pokémon Colosseum, it refers specifically to Miror B., Dakim, Venus, and Ein. They are each battled in their main location for the first battle, and each of them rebattle Wes in Realgam Tower. Miror B's main location is Pyrite Cave in Pyrite Town, Dakim's is Mt. Battle Zone 10, Venus's is in The Under, and Ein's is the Shadow PKMN Lab.

In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, it refers to Lovrina, Snattle, Gorigan, Ardos, and Eldes. The first three mentioned are battled in their main location and then battled at Citadark Isle for a rematch (similar to the Admins in Colosseum). Ardos and Eldes—the personal bodyguards and sons of the main villain—are only battled in Citadark Isle.
