The '''Rotom Phone''' (Japanese: '''スマホロトム''' ''Smartphone Rotom'') is a smartphone that is enhanced after being possessed by a {{p|Rotom}}. It is found in [[Galar]] in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], as a [[Key Item]] in [[Paldea]] in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]], and in [[Lumiose City]], [[Kalos]] in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. It is popular amongst people across multiple [[Pokémon]] [[canon]]s, and can host a multitude of functions and applications, including a [[Pokédex]]. The Paldean Pokédex application was developed by [[Jacq]].

===Pokémon Sword and Shield===
The Rotom Phone functions as the [[menu]] interface in {{g|Sword and Shield}}. From the Rotom Phone, players can access their [[party]], [[Bag]], [[Town Map]], [[Pokédex]], [[League Card]], [[options]], and [[save]] their game. They can also set up {{pkmn|Camp}} in most areas once they obtain [[Camping Gear]] from their {{gal|mum}}. If the player connects to the internet, they can also access [[Mystery Gift]] or [[Victory Station]].

The Rotom itself can also power the motor in the [[Rotom Bike]], allowing the player to travel faster, and after an upgrade, over water as well. Unlike the [[Rotom Pokédex]], the Rotom Phone does not speak during the storyline, but does prompt the player where to go next, and alerts them to happenings in the [[Wild Area]], such as [[weather]] patterns.

===Pokémon Scarlet and Violet===
A new Rotom Phone appears in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, sporting a similar, yet altered design, carrying two lenses instead of one. The player can access their Map, Pokédex, and Profile from the Rotom Phone menu. After obtaining the Rotom Phone, it will come out when opening the main menu. Additionally, should the player fall from a great height, the player will hold onto their Rotom Phone to slow their fall before impacting the ground.

====Camera app====
The player can take photos with their Rotom Phone in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet using the front or back cameras via the camera app. This function can be used to change the player's profile picture or Trainer icon. Filters or touch-ups can be applied to make photos more dynamic. The player can make numerous faces and poses while taking a selfie. Other players invited through the [[Union Circle]] can also appear in photos, in which they can make their own preset gestures that can be done at any time in the overworld. Many of these gestures can be unlocked through certain tasks and side quests; some are references to previous characters or games, such as [[Leon]]'s {{p|Charizard}} pose. Like in Legends: Arceus, photos are saved to the system's memory or SD Card.

In [[The Teal Mask]], the player can obtain the [[Roto-Stick]], which can expand the camera's field of vision in selfie mode. The ability to play three different music tracks through the Rotom Phone's radio is also unlocked, allowing the player to take photos with certain [[Non-player character|NPCs]] and change their expression depending on the track that is being played.

In [[The Indigo Disk]], by donating [[Blueberry Point|BP]] to the {{DL|League Club Room|Photography Club}} in the [[League Club Room]], the player can unlock frames and special effects to apply to photos.

The camera function is activated by pressing the Down Button. The controls for the various camera functions are as follows:

As part of the player's journey, several photographs are taken to commemorate different story events. These photos are only shown once and can be saved by using the console's screenshot function. Special photographs appear after:
* Earning a [[Gym Badge]].
* Defeating a [[Titan Pokémon]].
* Winning against a [[Team Star]] boss for the first time.
* Visiting a signboard with [[Kieran]] in [[Kitakami]].{{sup/9|TM}}
* Defeating a {{pkmn2|Titan|Titanic}} [[Loyal Three]] member.{{sup/9|TM}}
* Winning against a {{tc|BB League Elite Four}} member for the first time.{{sup/9|ID}}

===Pokémon Legends: Z-A===
A new Rotom Phone appears in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}, once again sporting a similar yet altered design,<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_KNDtKJJ-8</ref> now carrying three camera lenses. In the game, the player can use the Rotom Phone to "Roto-Glide" across the rooftops of buildings as the player traverses the urban landscape of [[Lumiose City]].

Like in the [[Galar]] and [[Paldea]]-centered games, the [[Pokédex]] is an app found on the player's Rotom Phone.

[[File:Masters Rotom Phone.png|thumb|128px|A Rotom Phone replica in Pokémon Masters EX]]
==={{g|Masters EX}}===
:''See also: [[Raihan (Masters)#Gallery|Raihan (Masters) → Gallery]]''
Due to all [[sync pair]]s on [[Pasio]] receiving a {{DL|Pokémon Masters EX|Poryphone}}, most characters do not use Rotom Phones in Pokémon Masters EX. However, {{mas|Raihan}} is shown holding his Rotom Phone in his model and occasionally uses it to take selfies. When he is raised to {{6EX}}, the color of his Rotom Phone case changes to gold. He also carries his Rotom Phone in his anniversary outfit, but it does not change color when he is raised to 6★ EX in this outfit. Once the player reaches friendship level 100 with {{mas|Raihan}} in the [[Trainer Lodge]], they can purchase a replica of a magenta Rotom Phone in the Lodge Exchange to display in the Trainer Lodge.

In random Pokémon Center conversations, {{mas|Jacq}} mentions that he developed a Pokédex app for Rotom Phones in [[Paldea]], while {{mas|Rei}} mentions Rotom Phones as an example of a Pokémon-related phone from [[Galar]].

===''Pokémon the Series''===
===={{aniseries|JN}}====
{{Ash}} received a smartphone from [[Professor Cerise]] in ''[[JN003|Ivysaur's Mysterious Tower!]]''. Along with [[Goh]]'s own smartphone, it was possessed by two of Cerise's {{p|Rotom}}, who turned each into a Rotom Phone. Unlike previous Pokédexes in {{aniseries|PTS}}, the Rotom Phones can provide information about locations and landmarks, and vital information such as height. They have also been shown to have a numbered Pokémon list and are the first known {{pkmn|animation|animated}} Pokédexes to register and list [[caught Pokémon]]. Like in the games, Ash and Goh's Rotom Phones rarely speak on their own, but in ''[[JN037|That New Old Gang of Mine!]]'', Ash's Rotom Phone was shown to think itself as superior to the {{an|Rotom Pokédex}} for its multitude of functions. If a Trainer is registered for the [[World Coronation Series]], they can identify and challenge other participating Trainers with their Rotom Phones.

In ''[[JN012|Flash of the Titans!]]'', {{TRT}} was revealed to have obtained their own Rotom Phone from {{an|Giovanni}}. Unlike Ash and Goh's Rotom Phones, this smartphone is black, and has a distinctively sassy and oblivious personality, which sometimes affects the Pokédex entries it gives.

Another pink Rotom Phone appeared in ''[[JN044|Sword and Shield: "From Here to Eternatus!"]]'', under the ownership of [[Sonia]].

A white Rotom Phone appeared in ''[[JN045|Sword and Shield... The Legends Awaken!]]'', under the ownership of [[Professor Magnolia]].

In ''[[JN049|To Train, or Not to Train!]]'', [[Chloe]] received a pink Rotom Phone with a Pokédex installed from Professor Cerise.

==Trivia==
* [[Hop]]'s Rotom Phone is blue, [[Sonia]]'s is pink, and [[Raihan]]'s is magenta, similar to the color of a {{Shiny}} Rotom.
* The [[Pokédex]] function in the {{pkmn|animated series}} seems to be similar to the Pokédex function on the [[Pokémon HOME]] mobile app version. Both feature Pokédexes that register Pokémon after being caught and are on a phone. The layouts of the Pokédex and Pokémon selection screen in {{aniseries|JN}} and HOME look similar.
** Another similarity is they can both look up moves in the Pokédex in the animated series and HOME.
* The way Pokémon are registered to the Rotom Phone in the animated series is similar to how Pokémon are registered to the player's Pokédex in [[Pokémon GO]].
* One of the icons on the Rotom Phone in the animated series resembles the icon for Pokémon GO.
* In the {{aniseries|JN}} episode [[JN126]], it is revealed that the passcode to [[Goh]]'s Rotom Phone is 5555, which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Numeric substitution in Japanese|a play on his name}}, with the number five being read as "go".
* [[Nemona]]'s father is on the board of the Rotom Phone company.
* Unlike in the {{aniseries|JN|''Journeys'' series}}, all the Rotom Phones in {{aniseries|HZ}} have the same voice actor in the original Japanese version, [[Daiki Yamashita]], as well the English dub, [[Zeno Robinson]].
* In concept art for [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], a shape resembling the [[Macro Cosmos]] logo can be seen on the back of the phone before being possessed by Rotom; this may imply that, at least in [[Galar]], the Rotom Phone is produced by Macro Cosmos or one of its subsidiaries, such as Macro Cosmos Tech.
