===[[Generation VII]]=== | |||
In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, Morimoto returns as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} the player can battle in the [[Game Freak]] office in [[Heahea City]]. Like in Black and White, the {{player}} must have become {{pkmn|Champion}} before they can battle him, he can be battled once per day, and he shares his appearance with male Veterans. Morimoto will heal the player's Pokémon after defeating him, and after defeating him for the first time, he will give the player an [[Oval Charm]]. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, Morimoto plays the same role, except he teams with the game's director, [[Kazumasa Iwao]], for a [[Multi Battle]]. | |||
In {{LGPE}}, Morimoto appears as a male {{tc|Coach Trainer}} on the third floor of [[Celadon Condominiums]] after the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]]. In these games, he uses the same {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} team he uses in Sun and Moon. After he is defeated, he will give the player ten [[PP Max]]es. | |||

In the games
Morimoto had regularly maintained a cameo appearance as an NPC that can be battled with in the games, from Generation V until Generation VIII. He also cameoed in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl despite not being credited in the game.
Generation V
In Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2, Morimoto appears in Castelia City in the Game Freak building. He will battle the player once per day, although in Black and White, the player must have cleared the main game before they can battle him. He uses the Veteran sprite.

Generation VII
In Pokémon Sun and Moon, Morimoto returns as a Trainer the player can battle in the Game Freak office in Heahea City. Like in Black and White, the player must have become Champion before they can battle him, he can be battled once per day, and he shares his appearance with male Veterans. Morimoto will heal the player's Pokémon after defeating him, and after defeating him for the first time, he will give the player an Oval Charm. In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Morimoto plays the same role, except he teams with the game's director, Kazumasa Iwao, for a Multi Battle.
In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Morimoto appears as a male Coach Trainer on the third floor of Celadon Condominiums after the player has entered the Hall of Fame. In these games, he uses the same Generation I Pokémon team he uses in Sun and Moon. After he is defeated, he will give the player ten PP Maxes.
