'''Melvin''' (Japanese: '''マギー''' ''McGee'') is a [[character of the day]] who appeared in ''[[EP043|The March of the Exeggutor Squad]]''. He is a struggling magician who always had bad luck.

When {{an|Misty}} ran into him at a carnival in [[Kanto]], his assistant had just quit on him. Feeling bad for him, Misty became his new assistant, but it didn't improve his magic show.

When {{Ash}} was questioning Melvin about what good his {{p|Exeggcute}} was, they used {{m|Hypnosis}} on him, putting him under Melvin's control. He had Ash weaken a group of {{p|Exeggutor}}, which Melvin proceeded to capture. He planned to use them to hypnotize everybody at the carnival into attending his show.

However, after his own Exeggcute [[Evolution|evolved]] into Exeggutor, it hypnotized the other Exeggutor into stampeding throughout the carnival, destroying everything in sight. Melvin didn't know what to do, but with the help of Misty and [[Ash's Charmander]], he was able to create his own fire to snap the Exeggutor out of their hypnosis and return everything back to normal.
