+[[File:Lucasmeetsrowan.png|thumb|left|{{ga|Lucas}} and {{ga|Barry}} meet Professor Rowan for the first time in {{game|Platinum}}]]
 Professor Rowan works in [[Sandgem Town]] with {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} and their family. This makes him the first Professor from the handheld games that does not live in the {{player}}'s hometown. He left the [[Sinnoh]] region four years prior to the events of [[Generation IV]] to study the Pokémon of [[Kanto]] with [[Professor Oak]], and has recently returned at the start of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} after reaching the conclusion that Sinnoh holds far greater secrets. He has a stern personality that makes him seem intimidating and mean, but he is actually very kind and patient. Rowan says he still feels a thrill whenever he travels anywhere with his Pokémon. He apparently has a sweet tooth, as the refrigerator in his laboratory is full of nothing but sweets and candy.

 In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, Professor Rowan is seen for the first time observing [[Lake Verity]] with his assistant. After being interrupted by the player and {{ga|Barry|his/her friend}}, he quickly walks off leaving his briefcase, which holds three [[Poké Ball]]s containing {{p|Turtwig}}, {{p|Chimchar}}, and {{p|Piplup}}, behind. The player and his/her friend try to return it to him, but are attacked by wild Pokémon in the process, and are forced to use two of the Pokémon in the briefcase for defense. After returning the Pokémon to Rowan in his lab, Rowan hears about the survival tactics that they used, and tells them to keep the Pokémon, as well as giving them each a [[Pokédex]] to record data about every single Pokémon. Soon after, Rowan and his assistant travel to [[Jubilife City]] to drop off some notes, where they are attacked by [[Team Galactic]], just as the player returns from [[Oreburgh City]] with his/her first [[Badge]].
-After becoming suspicious of Team Galactic's activities, he gathers his assistant, the player and his/her friend in the [[Canalave Library]] late in the game, and tells them about the legends of [[Sinnoh]]. Before they are able to finish their discussion, however, an earthquake shakes the region, and the four manage to escape the building before an aftershock. Rowan urges the Trainers to journey to the three lakes of Sinnoh, seeing the aftermath of the explosion on the news, and sends the player's friend to [[Lake Acuity]] in the north, his assistant to [[Lake Verity]] near [[Twinleaf Town]], and the player to [[Lake Valor]].

When he is visited in Sandgem for the first time, he hands out {{TM|27|Return}} as well as the Pokédex.
