'''Laki''' (Japanese: '''ラキ''' ''Laki'') is a recurring character who appeared in the [[Pokémon anime]]. He first appeared in ''[[SM017|Crystal-Clear Sleuthing!]]''.
 
==History==
Laki is an actor, who plays the role of a detective on the [[Television|show]] Alolan Detective Laki on [[Alola TV]], which {{Rotom}} and {{an|Professor Kukui}} like to watch. It is not known whether Laki is the actor's real name or just the name of the character he plays. Laki is very popular in the [[Alola]] [[region]] and even has his own merchandise, including blonde wigs styled after his own hair. Rotom likes to impersonate Laki and pretend to solve cases as well.
 
In one episode of his show, Laki had to find out who stole [[Mrs. Makani]]'s precious jewels, the Princess Tear. After finding clues on who the culprit could be, Laki gathered all of the suspects in a room and identified the thief, a doctor, who had hidden the Princess Tear in {{p|Sableye}} dolls.
 
Laki has made several brief appearances on Professor Kukui's television in ''[[SM020|Partner Promises!]]''; in ''[[SM022|A Shivering Shovel Search!]]'', during a flashback; in ''[[SM048|Night of a Thousand Poses!]]''; and in ''[[SM057|The Dex Can't Help It!]]'', when Rotom ended up in the television during one of his episodes.
 
He appeared in person for the first time in ''[[SM061|A Mission of Ultra Urgency!]]'', during the filming of an episode of his show at [[Melemele Meadow]]. However, the filming was interrupted when an [[Ultra Wormhole]] opened up and a {{p|Buzzwole}} emerged on the set, scaring everyone off.


Raki is a detective on a [[Television|TV show]] called (Japanese: '''アローラ探偵ラキ''' ''Alola Detective Raki''), which [[Rotom Pokédex]] and [[Professor Kukui]] like to watch. It is not known whether Raki is his real name or just the name of the character he plays. Raki is very popular in the [[Alola]] region and even has his own merchandise, like wigs of his hair. Rotom Pokédex likes to impersonate Raki and pretend it solves cases as well.
Laki reappeared in ''[[SM098|Bright Lights, Big Changes!]]'', where he was filming for another episode of his show when he was interrupted by Rotom, who had discovered an error with the plot. The crew was so impressed by Rotom's knowledge of the show that they offered him a lead role in the program's upcoming fifth season. In the end, Rotom went back to Ash, but Laki gained a new partner in the form of a {{p|Chatot}} after producer [[George Charino]] realized the show needed a change in format.


In one episode of his show, Raki had to find out who had stolen [[Mrs. Makani]]'s precious jewels. After finding clues on who the culprit could be, Raki gathered all suspects in a room and pointed out that the doctor among the suspects had stolen the jewels by hiding them in {{p|Sableye}} dolls.  
==Character==
Laki's charismatic onscreen persona extends to his personal life. He relishes in his fame, but knows a lot of trivia about the Alolan Detective Laki series.
