'''Mr. Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンじいさん''' ''Old Man Pokémon'') is a [[non-player character]] who lives in the [[Johto]] region. He casually researches [[Pokémon]] findings as a hobby, and is old friends with [[Professor Oak]]. He keeps in contact with [[Professor Elm]] because he knows that Elm is the authority on Pokémon [[evolution]]. | |||
==Relation to the plot== | |||
At the beginning of {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Mr. Pokémon contacts Professor Elm about a [[Pokémon egg]] he has found. In Generation II, this egg is notably one of the first eggs to be found, but in Generation IV (to tie in with {{pkmn|breeding}} in the [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen|prequels to HeartGold and SoulSilver]]) it is just "another Pokémon egg". Elm sends {{ga|Ethan}}/{{ga|Kris}}/{{ga|Lyra}} to collect the egg on his behalf, and later entrusts the payer with the egg. It eventually hatches into Togepi and is revealed to have come from the [[Kanto]] region. | |||
Later in the games, in exchange for a {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|Red Scale}}, obtained from either catching or defeating the [[Red Gyarados]] in the [[Lake of Rage]], Mr. Pokémon will give the player an {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. Share}}. | |||
In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, after obtaining both the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[Starter Pokémon#Kanto|Kanto starter]] from [[Professor Oak]], Mr. Pokémon will give the player a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Blue Orb}} in HeartGold or a {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Red Orb}} in SoulSilver. This will activate the [[Embedded Tower]] event. | |||

==Characteristics== | |||
According to Professor Elm, "Mr. Pokémon" is merely a nickname; the character's true name is unknown. As a researcher, Mr. Pokémon takes pride in the discoveries he makes, although Elm suggests that these are not as exciting as he would make out. | |||
His house, located at the northern end of [[Route 30]] suggests that he travels a great deal since he has a large collection of foreign {{pkmn|magazines}} and coins. After the [[Embedded Tower]] event, Professor Oak cites Mr. Pokémon's research on {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}, indicating he may have traveled to [[Hoenn]] in his past. | |||
