Mr. Backlot in the anime
Mr. Backlot (Japanese: ウラヤマ Urayama) is the owner of the Pokémon Mansion and is also said to be the owner of Amity Square. His house has a back garden where players can capture wild Pokémon.
He is apparently a compulsive liar, as he will repeatedly insist that a Pokémon appears in his garden despite not even being native to his region. His butler, who serves him well, covers up for his lies, releasing said Pokémon into the garden and allowing the player to capture rare Pokémon not found elsewhere in Sinnoh.
In the anime
He appeared in the episode Hungry for the Good Life!. He is voiced by Kenta Miyake in Japanese and David Brimmer in English. His Pokémon are cared for by Monica.

Trivia
- Mr. Backlot's Japanese name is a pun. His name is "Urayama" (ウラヤマ), but his butler adds shi (し or 氏, which in this case is a more polite form of "Mr.") to his name, making his name sound like the Japanese word for being envious, 羨ましい (urayamashii). In the game, he asks the player "Well? Aren't you jealous?" (どう？うらやましいじゃろ？？) over and over before telling the player what new Pokémon are in his garden.
