Ash Ketchum, a human in the Pokemon world

Humans are a species that live in the Pokémon world. Clearly based on the humans of the real world, this species forms the majority population of most regions. The only game regions in which humans are not present are the Mystery Dungeon world and PokéPark world (although the player and some Pokémon previously existed as humans).

Humans have no known genetic relationship to Pokémon at the present time, but according to Sinnoh myths, they once coexisted as a single species (possibly Mew) and were one and the same. This species transformed between human form and Pokémon form often. Eventually, this species evolved (in the Darwinian sense) into humans and the various species of Pokémon seen today. At the present time, the species of Pokémon that are the most similar to humans are in the Humanshape egg group.

Humans, like humans in the real world, are the dominant species and have achieved many technological breakthroughs, such as the Poké Ball. They created artificial Pokémon, such as Porygon and Mewtwo. Since ancient times, humans have kept Pokémon as pets and used them for travel.
