Professor Oak first appears in ''[[PM001|Clefairy's Debut!!]]'', in which he calls in {{OBP|Green|Pocket Monsters}} and {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} to {{TP|Professor Oak|his lab|laboratory}} to get their first Pokémon. Green beats Red to the lab when they were racing. When both Trainers were in the lab, Oak tells them the news (other than the fact that he is bald) that he is requesting them to go out on a journey to fill up the Pokédex. Afterwards, he gives them each a Pokédex and gives Green a choice between three [[starter Pokémon]], a {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, in which Green chooses {{TP|Green|Charmander}}. Before Green left, a {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} comes in. Oak did not allow that Clefairy in the lab as he was known for causing mischief. Clefairy calms Oak down by massaging him, making him forget what happened. As it was Red's turn to choose, Red decides to choose the Clefairy as he enjoyed Clefairy's silliness.

In ''[[PM012|Will You Risk Your Life to Play the Magic Game?!]]'', Professor Oak tells the two Trainers about a legendary Pokémon, {{p|Articuno}} in the [[Seafoam Islands]], where it made its major appearance in the [[PM013|next chapter]]. He becomes the announcer and judge in ''[[PM019|The No.1 Pokémon!!]]'' of the No. 1 Pokémon contest, in which he rates the performances of the Pokémon that went on stage, much to Clefairy's annoyance. Professor Oak reappears in ''[[PM021|Pokémon Baseball Tournament!!]]'' as the umpire of a baseball match that Red and Green participate. He tells both Trainers that he'll give a prize to the winner of the baseball match. After a long hard fought match, he gives the prize to Red who ended up winning the event. The prize turned out to be Exeggcute which chase Red and his pals away.

Professor Oak makes an appearance in ''[[PM023|Clefairy Evolves... At Last?!]]'' in which he contacts Red that he is on his way. Red laughs at him, as he doesn't believe that Professor Oak is telling the truth. He shows up and takes Red and the others to a museum which contained fossilized Pokémon. Professor Oak meets up with his friend who works there. He also gets to reunite with the {{p|Eevee}} that he used to have, as it was now use for experimental purposes relating with its evolutions. He watches the Eevee battle with Red's Clefairy and witnessed Eevee evolve into three different Pokémon. Red tells him that he doesn't want this but Professor Oak tells him that it was for experimental purposes and the battle must continue.

Professor Oak goes to his house that he was revealed to have owned in Sinnoh in ''[[PMDP24|Big Cleaning Festivities]]''. He hopes that Clefairy doesn't destroy it like the ones he did back in Hoenn. He had the three Sinnoh starter Pokémon to clean up the place and to make sure that the disaster relating with Clefairy's actions doesn't happen. However, Clefairy's idea of having it risen high backfired as the poles supporting it broke. In ''[[PMDP27|Turmoil Through the Ages!!]]'', he builds a time machine as part of his attempts to go back in time to see the ancient fossilized Pokémon. He has Red and his Pokémon test it out to see if it works. Red arrives back in the present and Professor Oak noticed that Clefairy went missing, only to age into an old man, much to Professor Oak's surprise. In [[PMDP36]], he has built a house out of grass and used his Pokémon to guard it in order to prevent the house from being messed with.

In [[PMDP37]], Professor Oak does some swimming laps and a {{p|Prinplup}} comes by. He decides to host a swimming race between Clefairy and a Prinplup. After the race, he takes out a swimsuit for Clefairy to put on but it make Clefairy stretch instead. In [[PMDP55]], Professor Oak was racing with Professor Rowan. They bumped into Red's camp set. He witnesses Team Galactic driving away in a van. In [[PMDP56]], Professor Oak is in his house and shows Red and the gang a robot with the word, help, on the chest. He programmed the robot to do many chores that Professor Oak himself cannot normally do. However, the robot backfired after Clefairy altered some controls on it. In [[PMDP59]], Professor Oak made some potions as it was cold and flu season. He tried it on Clefairy but Clefairy made several changes to his work. However, Clefairy ended up getting big.

Professor Oak has returned to Johto as of [[PMHGSS03]]. A Team Rocket Grunt tells him a joke which makes him laugh. However, Clefairy's kimono costume ruined it. The grunt still allowed Professor Oak to stay. In [[PMHGSS08]], a bunch of officers were with Professor Oak. Professor Oak reveals his new invention inside a shiny briefcase, which caused the attraction of some Team Rocket Grunts. Red and his Pokémon did everything they can to get the grunts away from them. Professor Oak made a cameo in a flashback in [[PMHGSS15]] in which {{p|Cleffa}} was telling the group a story.
