Nanu is a police officer who first shows up to aid the {{player}} in getting into [[Po Town]].

When [[Professor Kukui]] forms the [[Alola]] {{al|Pokémon League}}, he offers Nanu a position in the Alola [[Elite Four]]. He turns down the offer, however, stating that he has no obligation to join, unlike when the {{p|Tapu Bulu|guardian deity}} chose him to become the kahuna. As such, [[Acerola]] joins the Elite Four in his place.

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], Nanu later provides information on sightings of the [[Ultra Beast]]s around Ula'ula. He is also revealed to be a former member of the [[International Police]] and [[Looker]]'s former superior. His codename was '''000''' (Japanese: '''〇〇〇''') . During his time with them, he is described as having been an elite officer, on par with Looker. Ten years prior to the events of Pokémon Sun and Moon, he participated in a three-person mission with Looker and an unnamed {{DL|Ultra Wormhole|Fallers|Faller}} to track down a {{p|Guzzlord}}, which ultimately cost the Faller her life. After this mission, he and Looker discovered [[Anabel]] on the shores of [[Poni Island]].

In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], after {{p|Necrozma}} unleashes several Ultra Beasts around Alola, Nanu is briefly seen facing a Guzzlord at the [[Ruins of Abundance]]. Later, he also appears in Acerola's place at the [[Aether House]] during [[Mina]]'s trial. In Ultra Moon, he challenges the player to a rematch, while in Ultra Sun, he is not in the mood for a battle due to having just been defeated by [[Hau]]. In both games, he then gives the player the [[Purple Petal]], the final flower petal of the trial. In these games, it is also revealed that, after the death of [[Hapu]]'s grandfather, the previous kahuna of Poni Island, Nanu had been responsible for holding the grand trials on Poni before Hapu was elected as the new kahuna by {{p|Tapu Fini}}. At one point, he is also seen giving a beginning Trainer his [[starter Pokémon]], with the choice being between three {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Meowth}} with different personalities.
