Mr. Pokémon (Japanese: ポケモンじいさん Old Man Pokémon) is a non-player character who lives in the Johto region. He casually researches Pokémon findings as a hobby, and is old friends with Professor Oak. He keeps in contact with Professor Elm because he knows that Elm is the authority on Pokémon evolution.

Relation to the plot

Mr. Pokémon's House in Generation II

At the beginning of Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, Mr. Pokémon contacts Professor Elm about a Pokémon Egg he has found. In Generation II, this Egg is notably one of the first Eggs to be found, but in Generation IV (to tie in with breeding in the games set before HeartGold and SoulSilver) it is just "another Pokémon Egg". Elm sends Ethan/Kris/Lyra to collect the Egg on his behalf, and later entrusts the player with the Egg. It eventually hatches into Togepi and is revealed to have been given to Mr. Pokémon by the Kimono Girls.

Mr. Pokémon's House in Generation IV

Later in the games, in exchange for a Red Scale, obtained from either catching or defeating the Red Gyarados in the Lake of Rage, Mr. Pokémon will give the player an Exp. Share.

In HeartGold and SoulSilver, after obtaining both the National Pokédex and the Kanto starter Pokémon from Professor Oak, Mr. Pokémon will give the player a Blue Orb in HeartGold or a Red Orb in SoulSilver. This will activate the Embedded Tower event.

• First time talking to, in his house

"Hello, hello! You must be <player>. Prof. Elm said that you would visit. This is what I want Prof. Elm to examine." (hands over Mystery Egg) "I know a couple who run a Pokémon Day-Care service. They gave me that Egg. I was intrigued, so I sent mail to Prof. Elm. For Pokémon evolution, Prof. Elm is the authority. Even Prof. Oak here recognizes that. If my assumption is correct, Prof. Elm will know it."

"You are returning to Prof. Elm? Here. Your Pokémon should have some rest."

"I'm depending on you!"

Characteristics

According to Professor Elm, "Mr. Pokémon" is merely a nickname; the character's true name is unknown. As a researcher, Mr. Pokémon takes pride in the discoveries he makes, although Elm suggests that these are not as exciting as he would make out.

His house, located at the northern end of Route 30 suggests that he travels a great deal since he has a large collection of foreign magazines and coins. After the Embedded Tower event, Professor Oak cites Mr. Pokémon's research on Groudon and Kyogre, indicating he may have traveled to Hoenn in his past.
