The Tower Tycoon Palmer (Japanese: タワータイクーン クロツグ Tower Tycoon Kurotsugu) is the leader of the Battle Tower in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. He is Pearl's father. He is very similar to his son in look and character, as he's always in a rush and speaks nervously.

Quotes

”Hi! My name’s Palmer. I remember you from when you were in Twinleaf, <name>. You were always playing with my son <name>, right? You’ve grown up since then, and most impressively, too! So, I’d like you to show me. Show me the bond you’ve built with your Pokémon. Show me the skill you’ve acquired as a Trainer!

”Losing to an outstanding Trainer like you… I can live with that.’’”

”Bravo! One day, I imagine my son will come challenge me just as you have. That’s something I look forward to a great deal. You will become even more skilled the very same way your father did. Keep bettling Trainers from around the world and keep growing greater in stature!”
