A Pokémon professor (Japanese: ポケモン博士) is considered an expert on Pokémon in his or her respective region. Pokémon Professors are often researchers as well, and many times they are the ones responsible for distributing Pokédexes and starter Pokémon to new Pokémon trainers.

Professors from the regions showcased in the main series of Pokémon games are all named for trees.
