Silph Scope identifying the ghost Marowak

Pokémon Origins

The Silph Scope made an appearance in File 2: Cubone. It was possessed by a small group of Team Rocket Grunts who were holding Mr. Fuji captive at the Pokémon Tower. Like in the games, the Silph Scope had the ability to unveil the true identity of both Ghost-type Pokémon and real ghosts. The Silph Scope was later stolen from the Grunts by Blue, who then gave it to Red, allowing him to identify the ghost he was fighting as Cubone's dead mother, Marowak. Afterwards, Red returned the Silph Scope to the Rocket Grunts, who presumably took it with themselves as they left after being defeated by Red in a battle.

In the manga

A Silph Scope in Pokémon Adventures

Pokémon Adventures

Green possesses a modified Silph Scope that is able to reveal all invisible Pokémon. In this canon, Green is also the one who invented the Silph Scope.

Red, Green & Blue arc

Green's Silph Scope first appeared in The Jynx Jinx, where she used it, along with a data disc she had stolen from Team Rocket, to locate and identify Mew.

In Kalling Kadabra, Green used the Silph Scope to examine the barrier over Saffron City.

In Zap! Zap! Zapdos, Green used the Silph Scope to see through her Horsea's Smokescreen during her battle against Sabrina at Silph Co..

FireRed & LeafGreen arc

In Now You See Me..., when an invisible Pokémon attacked Green aboard the Seagallop ferry, she used the Scope to unveil it, although she couldn't recognize it. Red and Blue later recovered the Silph Scope, and used its playback function to get a look at the thing that had attacked Green.

In Surprised by Sneasel, Silver was revealed to also possess a Silph Scope, which he used to examine the Team Rocket airship as it appeared above him and Yellow.

In Right on Time, Rhydon, Green used her Silph Scope to inspect a burning piece of wreckage that had broken off from the Team Rocket airship, spotting Silver trapped inside the flames.

Pokémon Pocket Monsters

A Silph Scope in Pokémon Pocket Monsters

The Silph Scope first appears in Get Rid Of The Ghost Pokémon!!. Red's rival, Blue, is shown to have one and used it to identify Gengar's movements during its battle with Clefairy. However, Clefairy took the Silph Scope and used it to his advantage to defeat Gengar. Unlike its game counterpart, the Silph Scope is shaped as glasses and it was not shown to come from Silph Co.

Pokémon Zensho

The Silph Scope was seen in Celadon City. After Satoshi had been scared away from the Pokémon Tower by a Gastly, he saw several Team Rocket Grunts exciting the Tower, using a Silph Scope to avoid being scared by the ghosts. Satoshi then secretly followed the Grunts to the Rocket Hideout, where he snatched one of the Scopes that were in there. Using the Scope, he was able to get past of the ghosts in the Tower and all the way to the top floor, where he encountered Mr. Fuji, who was being held captive by Team Rocket.

Trivia

  • A sign next to the Pokémon Tower in Lavender Town advertises the Silph Scope, proclaiming Make the Invisible Plain to See!
  • In Generation I, if the player uses a Poké Doll to flee from the Marowak ghost, it will disappear as if it had been defeated. This allows the player to proceed in the games' story without obtaining the Silph Scope (making battling the Rocket Hideout unnecessary).
  • In Generation I, if the player views the status screen of a Pokémon, the ghost's sprite will change to that of the actual Pokémon. However, it still cannot be battled or caught.
