The Masked Man (Japanese: 仮面の男), also referred to as the "Mask of Ice" (Japanese: マスク・オブ・アイス), is the main antagonist of the Gold, Silver & Crystal chapter in the Pokémon Adventures manga. He is a member of Team Rocket.

History

The Masked Man initially kidnapped Green, Silver, Keane, Chermaine, Will, and Karen as children using Ho-Oh and kidnapped them based on their potential as trainers. Silver and Blue escaped from him, and went ho on his trail to figure out who he was. Then once Team Rocket disbanded he collected the remaining Grunts and revived it in Johto with him as the new leader and his kidnapped children as admins. The Masked Man's goal was to capture Celebi and make use of its time travel powers.

Gold was able to retrieve a scrap of his clothing and gave it to Professor Elm, who examined it and later realized that there were particles of the substance used to make Gym Badges on his clothes, revealing to Gold that he must be a trainer.

The Masked Man first appears in the Ilex Forest, controlling the Charcoal Kiln and His Farfetche'd to battle Gold. He then appeared to Gold who thought that his Pokémon were wild and told him to leave this forest. He then defeated Gold easily and disappeared. He the appeared battling Silver and Gold at the Lake of Rage, defeating them and revealing to Gold Silver's past with him.

The Masked Man eventually gains the control of the legendary Pokémon, Ho-Oh and Lugia.

Later on, he captures Celebi in Ilex Forest using the GS Ball to go back in time. Gold follows him and reveals his real identity.
