Radio Director

The Radio Director (Japanese: きょくちょう Director) is the head of the Radio Tower in Goldenrod City. He appears in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, s SoulSilver.

A key part of all Johto-based games is Team Rocket's invasion of the Radio Tower. He must be located to earn the Card Key that will give access to the fifth floor, where Team Rocket's leaders are hiding. After defeating many Grunts, the player meets up with who is assumed to be the Radio Director. It turns out that this director is merely an impostor: Rocket Executive Lambda is wearing a disguise. Once he has been defeated, the real director will give the Card Key and allow access to the fifth floor.

Once Team Rocket has been conclusively defeated and disbanded, the director will express his gratitude by awarding a unique item that varies from game to game. Players of Pokémon Gold and HeartGold will earn the Rainbow Wing, players of Pokémon Silver and SoulSilver will receive a Silver Wing and players of Pokémon Crystal will be given a Clear Bell. It is unknown how the director stumbled upon these rare items, but they are all used in summoning a legendary Pokémon, specifically the version mascots Ho-Oh, Lugia and Suicune respectively.
