'''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.


He received one of the first [[Pokémon egg]]s from a couple who run a [[Pokémon Day Care]]. He delivered his findings to Professor Elm via {{ga|Ethan}}/{{ga|Kris}}/{{ga|Lyra}} in the beginning of {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold, Silver|s}}, {{v2|Crystal}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. The egg he found was from Kanto, which is why [[Professor Elm]] was freaked when he saw the egg. It would appear that the overzealous Mr. Pokémon had contacted Elm with less credible findings in the past, however.
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}}.


His house, located just north of [[Cherrygrove City]],  north at [[route 30]] would suggest that he travels a great deal since he has a large collection of foreign {{pkmn|magazines}} and coins. He also has a broken computer, two chairs and a couch.
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.


In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, after obtaining both the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[Starter Pokémon#Kanto|Kanto starter]] from [[Professor Oak]], he 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.
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.
