'''Ken''' (Japanese: '''ケン''' ''Ken'') is a member of the [[Pokémon Mystery Club]], abbreviated PMC. Along with his partner, [[Mary (PMC)|Mary]], they try to solve the mysteries of Pokémon origins. They believe that Pokémon came from space, and are out to prove it. Ken's Japanese voice actor is ''Seki Toshihiko''.


Ken first appeared in ''[[EP246|Wish Upon a Star Shape]]''. A spacecraft carrying {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}} had crashed, and a lone Cleffa had fallen out. Ken and Mary wanted to capture the Cleffa so they could study where it came from. Concerned about what Ken and Mary would do to Cleffa, [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] had his [[Ash's Donphan|Phanpy]] take care of Cleffa and make sure it got to its spacecraft safely. Phanpy did its job perfectly, and the Cleffa evolved into a Clefairy so it could get on board the spacecraft as it flew away. Ken and Mary, along with [[Team Rocket]] were sent blasting off.
In the Japanese version, Mary was voiced by 落合 るみ ''Ochiai Rumi'' in her first episode and 進藤 尚美 ''Shindo Naomi'' in her second. Ken is voiced by 関俊彦 ''Seki Toshihiko'' in both.


Ken also appeared in ''[[AG087|Crazy as a Lunatone]]''. He and Mary were now trying to capture a {{p|Lunatone}} and study it. Just like the last time, they were sent blasting off, not getting a single amount of information about the Pokémon they tried to capture.
Their goal seems to be to do whatever it takes to conclusively prove that Pokémon are extraterrestrial lifeforms, which causes them to be motivated into capturing and stealing Pokémon species which have relations to outer space, such as {{p|Cleffa}} and {{p|Lunatone}}.

Ken and Mary of the PMC

The Pokémon Mystery Club (Japanese: ポケモン不思議クラブ Pokémon Mystery Club) is a duo of two overzealous investigators: Ken (ケン Ken) and Mary (メリー Mery). They first appeared in Wish Upon a Star Shape and later reappeared in Crazy as a Lunatone. Like Team Rocket, they have a motto, but consider themselves to be heroes despite their dubious methods. Although they don't use Pokémon of their own, they have a variety of scientifically advanced equipment and gadgets including bulldozers, jetpacks, robots, and rocket launchers which they build themselves using tools from the bag that Mary carries. They usually call themselves 'PMC' for short.

In the Japanese version, Mary was voiced by 落合 るみ Ochiai Rumi in her first episode and 進藤 尚美 Shindo Naomi in her second. Ken is voiced by 関俊彦 Seki Toshihiko in both.

Their goal seems to be to do whatever it takes to conclusively prove that Pokémon are extraterrestrial lifeforms, which causes them to be motivated into capturing and stealing Pokémon species which have relations to outer space, such as Cleffa and Lunatone.
