Mr. Fuji looks after abandoned and orphaned {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} at the '''Lavender Volunteer Pokémon House''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|あいの ボランティア ポケモン ハウス|Ai no Borantea Pokémon Hausu}}''' ''Affection Volunteer Pokémon House'') in [[Lavender Town]]. He subscribes to Pokémon Fan Magazine. He is not a native of Lavender Town; he used to live on [[Cinnabar Island]] and is the founder of the island's [[Pokémon Lab]]. He used to be a close friend of [[Cinnabar Gym]]'s [[Blaine]], as the portrait in the Gym shows them together but this only in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}.

In [[Generation I]] and FireRed and LeafGreen, when members of [[Team Rocket]] killed {{OBP|Marowak|ghost}} at [[Pokémon Tower]], Mr. Fuji marched up to their [[Rocket Hideout|hideout]] and started to rant about how Team Rocket was abusing Pokémon. Team Rocket held him hostage until the {{player|protagonist}} drove them out of the tower and rescued him.

The interaction with the portrait at Pokémon Lab of '''Dr. Fuji''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|フジはかせ|Fuji-hakase}}''' ''Dr. Fuji''), who is thought to be Mr. Fuji in his youth, retrieves the following text from the games: | |||

Interacting with the portrait of Blaine and Mr. Fuji at Cinnabar Gym, which only appears in FireRed and LeafGreen, yields the following text: | |||

Also, in FireRed and LeafGreen, there is a [[Pokémon Journal]] entry at the [[Pokémon Center]] in Cinnabar Island that reads the following: | |||

In {{v2|Emerald}} there are a series of messages left at [[Faraway Island]] where a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Mew}} can be found. The messages warn that only someone pure of heart will see Mew. The author's name is smudged, but the remnant {{tt|ジ|ji}} is still readable in the Japanese version. It is possible that it was Mr. Fuji who left the message. As a scientist who possibly worked on creating {{p|Mewtwo}}, he would have needed to capture Mew to take its baby. | In {{v2|Emerald}} there are a series of messages left at [[Faraway Island]] where a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Mew}} can be found.

* It is theorized that he may have been the inspiration for [[Dr. Fuji]] from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', due to their similar names and history in studying {{p|Mew}}. However, Dr. Fuji is considerably younger than Mr. Fuji, leading to another theory that the senior Fuji is the junior Fuji's father.

Furthermore, the interaction text with the portrait is of surprise from {{ga|Red}} or {{ga|Leaf}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} to the name, since Mr. Fuji is known to be kind-spirited and wouldn't harm Pokémon whereas Dr. Fuji, as described in-game, conducted ill-experiments on {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} such as {{p|Mew}}. This could possibly mean that perhaps Dr. Fuji is a younger Mr. Fuji in the {{pkmn|anime}} as well. However, like mentioned above, this is all speculation. | ||
