'''"Looker"''' (Japanese: '''ハンサム''' ''Handsome'') is the codename for an [[International Police]] officer who travels the world investigating various villainous teams. He was introduced in {{game|Platinum}} as an International Police officer investigating [[Team Galactic]]. He has since appeared multiple times throughout the [[core series]], in {{game|Black and White|s}}, [[Pokémon X and Y]], [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], and [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], frequently investigating the activities of [[villainous team]]s.

==In the core series==
==={{game|Platinum}}===
[[File:Looker.png‎|thumb|left|The player meeting Looker in Pokémon Platinum]]
In Pokémon Platinum, Looker is an important character, encountering the {{player}} multiple times over their journey across [[Sinnoh]]. He speaks with odd grammatical constructs, implying that he is not entirely fluent with the {{pkmn|nation}}al language; however, this is not present in the Japanese version. He first meets the player in [[Jubilife City]], giving them the [[Vs. Recorder]], and appears often when Team Galactic is near. His motives are clear: his mission is to stop Team Galactic from causing havoc in the Sinnoh region. He is then met again at the [[Valley Windworks]], right after Team Galactic flees from the area. Disappointed in just missing them, he searches the area for clues, which leads him somehow to the [[Team Galactic Eterna Building]], where Team Galactic have kidnapped [[Rad Rickshaw]]'s Pokémon. Looker infiltrates the building by disguising himself as a {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt}}.

The player next encounters Looker at the [[Veilstone Game Corner]], if one decides to look there. If not, then he will appear after the player and {{ga|Lucas}}/{{ga|Dawn}} battle the Team Galactic Grunts in front of the [[Team Galactic HQ|Galactic Warehouse]]. He leads the player into the warehouse and realize that the inner door is locked. He also finds {{HM|02|Fly}}, leaving the player to take it.

Looker will appear once the player goes to [[Team Galactic HQ]] and talks to the Grunt outside. He will reveal that he has the {{si|Storage Key}} and will tell the player to meet him in the Galactic Warehouse. Once there, he will open the door and go down to investigate.

Inside the headquarters, he will not be seen until the player reaches the meeting room, where he is seen eavesdropping on a gathering of members of Team Galactic. He will tell the player to listen to their meeting with him. When it is over, he will leave again.

Later, he gives the player a [[Black Flute]] when they are about to go off to the [[Spear Pillar]].

When [[Cyrus]] retreats into the [[Distortion World]], Looker shifts his investigation towards [[Charon]], who has taken control of the team. This is because Looker stumbles upon Charon's notes of his plans back at the [[Team Galactic HQ]]. He is not seen again until after the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]], when they journey to [[Stark Mountain]]. Here, he is seen in the final stages of his investigation, arresting Charon and ending Team Galactic's reign of terror once and for all.

After this, he can be found in the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]. He mentions that he wants to spend his remaining time in Sinnoh to teach new moves to his Pokémon.

====Disguises====
Looker is shown to be quite good at disguising himself. His prime disguise is that of a Team Galactic Grunt. At Stark Mountain, before he apprehends Charon, he disguises himself as a [[breakable rock]].

===Pokémon Black and White===
[[File:Looker BW.png|thumb|Looker meeting {{ga|Hilbert}} in {{game|Black and White|s}}]]
Looker is found in {{game|Black and White|s}}, where he is assigned to capture the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]] after the events at [[N's Castle]].

He first meets the player at their home in [[Nuvema Town]], after the player defeats Team Plasma at N's Castle. He appears disguised as the player's {{OBP|Mom|Black and White}}, only to realize that he forgot to remove his disguise. He asks for the player's assistance in finding the Seven Sages, and gives the player a [[Super Rod]].

Looker will appear upon finding each sage to take him into custody. After apprehending the final sage, Looker tells the player that [[N]] was seen in a distant land with a {{t|dragon}} Pokémon.

===Pokémon X and Y===
Looker has traveled to the [[Kalos]] region on an assignment to find and arrest [[Xerosic]] but keeps his affiliation with the International Police a secret from the player, introducing himself as a detective recently located to [[Lumiose City]]. The player first meets him after receiving an invitation to come to Looker Bureau over the [[Holo Caster]], the first time they enter Lumiose City after upgrading the [[Mega Ring]]. Looker signs the player on as his assistant in his fight for justice, and the two begin taking on cases together. During their first case, he meets a homeless young girl named [[Emma]] and her {{p|Espurr}} named Mimi, whom he decides to take under his wing. He becomes a father-figure to the girl, but because of their poor living conditions, Emma feels she is a burden to Looker and decides to look for a job to help support him. She finds a job at {{DL|Lumiose City|Lysandre Café}} and her employer turns out to be none other than Xerosic, who uses [[Emma]] as a test subject for a special suit that has a cloaking device and can power up any Pokémon the user has. Xerosic remotely controls the suit and makes Emma commit various crimes (although she is completely unaware of what she is doing). Looker and the player manage to rescue her, and Looker arrests Xerosic and leaves Kalos. He leaves a letter with Mimi that reveals his real position as a member of the International Police, and that he has paid for the property in full so that Emma may continue to call the bureau home and use it however she pleases. He also transfers his codename 'Looker' to the player character (this is merely a story point and has no impact on the gameplay).

In these games, his strange style of speech is significantly scaled back. It is also strongly suggested that his Croagunk was killed during a case sometime in the past.

===Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire===
[[File:Looker ORAS.png|thumb|Looker giving {{ga|Brendan}} an Audinite in {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}]]
Looker appears in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] in the [[Battle Resort]]. He suffers from amnesia due to an unknown reason. He is washed up on the shore, and is soaking wet when the player found him. A woman brought him to her cottage to dry himself up. At the cottage, he gives the player an [[Audinite]].

===Pokémon Sun and Moon===
After the player becomes the {{pkmn|Champion}}, Looker appears with his superior, [[Anabel]] to investigate the [[Ultra Beast]]s, having received orders from the International Police. To this end, he collaborates with the player to capture the Beasts and prevent them from wreaking havoc. Looker is tasked to stand by for back-up as he does not have any Pokémon, and he frequently shows concern for Anabel as she becomes exhausted over the missions.

It is revealed that, ten years prior to the events of Sun and Moon, Looker was part of a three-person team that included himself, [[Nanu]], and an unnamed [[Ultra Wormhole#Fallers|Faller]]. At this time, Looker had a code name, '''100kr''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|Ｎｏ．|ナンバー}}８３６'''). His team was tracking down a {{p|Guzzlord}}, but when they found it, a moment of pity from Looker resulted in the untrained Faller losing her life. Unbeknownst to Looker, the International Police had sent the woman as bait, since Ultra Beasts are drawn to Fallers. After their mission, Looker and Nanu discovered an unconscious Anabel on the shore of [[Poni Island]], having lost most of her memories.

Looker also reveals that Nanu was his superior when he first joined the International Police.

===Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon===
Looker is found outside of the police station on {{rt|9|Alola}} where he gives the player a [[Thunder Stone]]. He comments that Alola is a peaceful place and has no need to worry for people [[Cyrus|trying to create a new world]] or [[Ghetsis|liberating Pokémon from their Trainers]]. However, he has a certain concern about reported [[Team Rocket]] sightings.

Looker is later seen in [[Poni Grove]] alongside Anabel, telling her to enjoy her vacation in the Alola region. He serves as a bodyguard to Anabel who wishes to train her Pokémon at the [[Battle Tree]]. He gives the player a [[Red Card]] and leaves.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
====History====
=====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''=====
[[File:Looker anime.png|thumb|250px|Looker in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Looker debuted in ''[[DP130|Frozen on Their Tracks]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} met Looker while taking a train leading to [[Lake Acuity]], and decided to help him distribute lunch boxes as he has bought too many of them. He decided to investigate the reason behind the signal which caused the train to stop and discovered it was the doing of [[Team Galactic]].

[[File:Looker Badge.png|thumb|left|250px|Looker's International Police Badge]]
In ''[[DP136|Gateway to Ruin!]]'', Looker investiged Team Galactic's activities in [[Mt. Coronet]] while disguised as a {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt|Grunt}} to blend in. He revealed his identity as a member of the [[International Police]], taking everyone by surprise. Team Galactic immediately flooded the area and fled with the [[Spear Key]], while Looker used his inflatable boat to rescue himself and the group.

In ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', Looker was captured by {{tc|Commander}} [[Jupiter]] and held captive at the [[Fuego Ironworks]]. He was later freed from his cell by {{MTR}} and the group after Jupiter made a tactical retreat. Looker then escorted everyone around the Ironworks, and discovered evidence of manufacturing, a piece of [[Red Chain]]. Everyone returned to the [[Floaroma Town]] Police Station with the evidence, which proved to be a decoy and wiped the International Police's system clean. Looker was frustrated by the set back, but set off once again in pursuit of Team Galactic.

In ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', Looker returned to Mt. Coronet to continue his investigations. The Rocket trio soon found him and decided to join his scheme by disguising themselves as Team Galactic Grunts to go undetected. By ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', Looker and Team Rocket had defeated and replaced the waiting guards outside the gate to [[Spear Pillar]]. Unfortunately [[Cyrus]] and his Commander easily see through the disguises which results in them being incapacitated placed in a cell with Ash and his friends. [[Cynthia]] arrives later to free Looker and the others, who go on to dismantle Team Galactic and the Commanders are arrested by the police.

=====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''=====
{{n|Handsome to make a comeback in Best Wishes|Looker was set to make a comeback}} in two [[BW023 (unaired)|unaired]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] before they were indefinitely {{n|Airing of two-part Rocket-dan VS Plasma-dan episode to be moved|postponed}}. The events of these episodes are not canonical.

After a long absence, Looker finally appeared again in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]''. He had originally disguised himself as a {{tc|Hiker}}, but revealed his true identity after saving Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} from a group of attacking Pokémon, including {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. He explained that he had come to [[Unova]] in order to investigate the actions of [[Team Plasma]], who were planning to take over the region. After an encounter with several Team Plasma members, including the Plasma Scientist [[Colress]], he left the group to continue his investigation.
[[File:Looker Hiker.png|thumb|left|250px|Looker disguised as a Hiker]]
In ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]'', Looker again investigated actions caused by Team Plasma. Ash and friends encountered him in a city, where a {{p|Haxorus}} was going on a rampage. Looker realized that it must be under the same kind of control as the Pokémon from before, and attempted to use his barrier-creating device to stop Haxorus from being controlled, without any result. He then used an energy indicator to find the source of the energy that controlled Haxorus, eventually pinpointing it into Team Plasma's helicopter. When a missed {{m|Shadow Ball}} from [[Aldith]]'s {{p|Liepard}} hit the machine, it was broken, freeing the controlled Pokémon.

In ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]'', he disguised himself as [[Cedric Juniper]]'s assistant and escorted Ash and his friends to the {{an|White Ruins}}. Later, when Team Plasma attacked in an attempt to find the Light Stone, he unmasked himself and began trying to fight the villains.

In ''[[BW121|Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!]]'' and ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'', Looker wound up getting caught along with Iris, Cilan, and Cedric Juniper, but they later freed Looker. He then managed to convince Team Rocket into joining the battle. Eventually, when {{p|Reshiram}} was freed from Team Plasma's control, Looker arrested all the Team Plasma members, effectively putting an end to the team's existence.

====Character====
[[File:Looker and Team Rocket.png|thumb|250px|Looker and Team Rocket]]
Looker maintains his mysterious [[International Police]] status through the use of disguises and infiltration, allowing him to acquire secret intelligence. He has to be quick witted and always with a back-up plan.

In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'', Looker built an alliance with {{TRT}} while trying to take down [[Team Galactic]]. [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} referred to him as '''Boxed-Lunch Guy''' (Japanese: '''ランチボックスさん''' ''Mr. Lunchbox'') because he gave them boxed lunches while on the Ampharos Train. That simple act left them extremely loyal to him. In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]'', this relationship was shown to have carried on, as seen in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'', where he managed to convince them into joining the final battle against [[Team Plasma]].

===Pokémon Generations===
[[File:Looker PG.png|250px|thumb|Looker in Pokémon Generations]]
Looker appeared in four [[Pokémon Generations]] {{cat|Pokémon Generations episodes|episodes}}. He made his debut in ''[[PG02|The Chase]]'', where he and the [[International Police]] were on the trail of [[Giovanni]]. They soon tracked the [[Team Rocket]] Boss down to the [[Viridian Gym]], only to find that he had already left his position as [[Gym Leader]] after awarding the {{Badge|Earth}} to two Trainers: {{ga|Blue}} and {{ga|Red}}.

Looker reappeared in ''[[PG05|The Legacy]]''. He met up with {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]] to find out more information on the whereabouts of Giovanni, after he and the International Police had helped stop Team Rocket's takeover of the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]].

He made another appearance in ''[[PG12|The Magma Stone]]'', in which he was shown at [[Stark Mountain]], having been trying to hunt down the remnants of [[Team Galactic]] led by [[Charon]] after Cyrus [[PG11|had disappeared]]. He used his {{p|Croagunk}} to battle the {{pkmn2|Legendary}} {{p|Heatran}} along with [[Buck]] and his {{p|Claydol}}. Despite their success in placating Heatran, Looker was not able to arrest Charon, as he managed to escape with two {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt}}s.

Looker appeared once more in ''[[PG17|The Investigation]]'', confronting the Pokémon thief Essentia. He chased her across [[Lumiose City]] after she committed a crime spree, before eventually unmasking her as [[Emma]], the orphan girl he invited to be his assistant.

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Looker Adventures.png|thumb|120px|right|Looker in Pokémon Adventures]]
{{main|Looker (Adventures)}}
Looker appears as a major supporting character in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. Looker is a member of the [[International Police]]. He travels around the world, investigating the activities of various villainous teams around the world. To aid in his quest, he uses many gadgets known as "International Police Equipment", though they have a tendency to break at Looker's expense.
{{-}}
===Pocket Monsters DP===
{{cleanup|section}}
[[File:Looker PMDP.png|thumb|left|110px|Looker in Pocket Monsters DP]]

Looker debuted in [[PMDP39]], where he arrived at the scene of an investigation in his police car. After getting out to investigate, Looker was then disturbed by {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}'s antics. He then approached {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} and the gang but they fled the scene, causing him to follow in pursuit. 

Tired of Looker's presence, Clefairy built a fake wall out of paper to hide, but it was quickly destroyed. The group then swam to the other side to avoid Looker, to no avail. Following the chase, Looker followed their footprints to a nearby house. Before he could knock the door, Clefairy burst out in an ice-cream disguise along with Red, {{TP|Red|Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}}, and {{TP|Red|Tyrogue}} and got away in a car. Despite that, Looker was able to catch them and inform them that he had something to give and show them all this time.

Looker returned in [[PMDP52]], where he was at the beach with Red and his Pokémon. He noticed that Clefairy looked darker than before and all of the other Pokémon start to mimic him, clothes-wise. This caused Looker to chase Clefairy and Clefairy to chase the Pokémon who copied Looker. In [[PMDP55]], he goes on a solo mission with Clefairy joining him when [[Team Galactic]] steal a kid's food truck. After spotting the thieves, Looker and Clefairy give chase. When Clefairy put on his ninja costume temporarily, Looker fell to the floor in amusement. As the truck arrives at the garage stop, Looker was unable to get inside. However, after seeing the two Grunts running off with the food, Clefairy was able to stop them.

In [[PMDP60]], he is on the lookout for Team Galactic and met up with Red and his Pokémon at a casino. Unfortunately, after finding their hiding place, the alarms go off and Looker and Clefairy go to the location. [[Charon]] makes a break for it and Looker is right behind him. Both of them head for Team Galactic's helicopter and climb the ladder. While on the ladder, they notice Clefairy taking some loot. The helicopter then disappears into the distance.

[[File:Looker DPA.png|thumb|90px|Looker in Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]]

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===

Looker and [[Koya]] are on the trail searching for [[Hareta]]'s father, [[Kaisei]]. Like in the games, he is also working for the [[International Police]]. His name in the earlier chapters is ''Hansom'', but he is later identified as Looker.

Looker is able to identify Team Galactic Grunts in the crowd before they launched an attack on the stadium; once the Galactic incident is taken care of, he tries to take Kaisei into custody. Later, he along with several other International Police agents arrive at [[Stark Mountain]] and disguise themselves as rocks in order to arrest the members of [[Team Galactic]]. However, the villainous team escapes when an earthquake in Stark Mountain distracted Looker and the others. He stays behind to save Koya. After Hereta and his friends calm {{p|Heatran}} down by placing the [[Magma Stone]] back to where it belongs, Looker wonders if any members remained during the cave-in. Koya says no, allowing [[Mars]] to escape out of gratitude for her having saved his life earlier.

Looker and a squad International Police Officers raid [[Team Galactic HQ|Team Galactic's headquarters]] in order to continue the investigation for Team Galactic. Looker has Koya block the entrance in order to prevent anyone from going inside. However, he informs Koya that Charon was too powerful and his whole squad was defeated. Looker defends Koya when he was about to get attacked by an {{p|Onix}}. After witnessing Charon's strength, Looker tells Koya to retreat the area. Despite the order, Koya decides to stop Charon for good, which Looker allows. Much later, Looker arrived on Stark Mountain after the battle with the [[Creation trio]], awaiting Charon's arrival in order to arrest him. Following Charon's arrest, Looker notifies him that Team Galactic was disbanded on behalf of Cyrus's orders.

==Trivia==
* It is possible that Looker's looks, attire, and general persona may be derived from {{wp|Koichi Zenigata}}, a fictional detective in {{wp|Monkey Punch}}'s manga series, ''{{wp|Lupin the Third}}''. ''Lupin the Third'' itself was initially released in Japan around the time that many of the highly ranked staff members of Game Freak were young.
