History
PM series
Kanto
Professor Oak first appears in Clefairy's Debut!!, in which he calls in Green and Red to his lab to get their first Pokémon. Green beats Red to the lab when they were racing. When both Trainers were in the lab, Oak tells them the news (other than the fact that he is bald) that he is requesting them to go out on a journey to fill up the Pokédex. Afterwards, he gives them each a Pokédex and gives Green a choice between three starter Pokémon, a Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle, in which Green chooses Charmander. Before Green left, a Clefairy comes in. Oak did not allow that Clefairy in the lab as he was known for causing mischief. Clefairy calms Oak down by massaging him, making him forget what happened. As it was Red's turn to choose, Red decides to choose the Clefairy as he enjoyed Clefairy's silliness.
In Will You Risk Your Life to Play the Magic Game?!, Professor Oak tells the two Trainers about a legendary Pokémon, Articuno in the Seafoam Islands, where it made its major appearance in the next chapter. He becomes the announcer and judge in The No.1 Pokémon!! of the No. 1 Pokémon contest, in which he rates the performances of the Pokémon that went on stage, much to Clefairy's annoyance. Professor Oak reappears in Pokémon Baseball Tournament!! as the umpire of a baseball match that Red and Green participate. He tells both Trainers that he'll give a prize to the winner of the baseball match. After a long hard fought match, he gives the prize to Red who ended up winning the event. The prize turned out to be Exeggcute which chase Red and his pals away.
Professor Oak makes an appearance in Clefairy Evolves... At Last?! in which he contacts Red that he is on his way. Red laughs at him, as he doesn't believe that Professor Oak is telling the truth. He shows up and takes Red and the others to a museum which contained fossilized Pokémon. Professor Oak meets up with his friend who works there. He also gets to reunite with the Eevee that he used to have, as it was now use for experimental purposes relating with its evolutions. He watches the Eevee battle with Red's Clefairy and witnessed Eevee evolve into three different Pokémon. Red tells him that he doesn't want this but Professor Oak tells him that it was for experimental purposes and the battle must continue.

However, Clefairy becomes overconfident and gets into an argument with Professor Oak. After Clefairy gets tackled by a Tauros, which sent him crashing into a building, Professor Oak got upset as he knew this was going to happen. However, he gave Clefairy a chance as Clefairy was left off with a warning. Professor Oak watched the shows that Clefairy was hosting in and saw that he did a good job. When the zoo was closing, he felt sad. One night, he notices Red and his Pokémon breaking in. His arrival caused Clefairy to flee in fear, only for him to trip on a hidden pipe which caused the torch to fly out of his hand.
