History

Professor Cerise and Talia during high school

Pre-series

As revealed in Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!, Professor Cerise met his wife, Talia, when they attended the same high school. After noticing that Talia wasn't drawing anymore, he encouraged her to continue pursuing her dreams to become a comic book artist.

Pokémon Journeys: The Series

Professor Cerise

Professor Cerise debuted in a fantasy in Enter Pikachu!. He physically debuted in Legend? Go! Friends? Go! during the opening ceremony of Cerise Laboratory, where he explained his goal of studying everything about Pokémon to better understand them and the world itself. During his speech, Cerise received an alert of changes in the atmosphere, leading him to predict the appearance of a rare Pokémon at the Vermilion harbor.

Later, he was impressed after hearing Ash and Goh's findings after their encounter with the rare Pokémon, Lugia, and offered the two to become research fellows at his lab, which they accepted. Afterwards, Cerise offered Go to choose one of the Kanto starter Pokémon, but Goh declined, wanting to make Mew his first Pokémon instead.

In Ivysaur's Mysterious Tower!, Cerise gave Ash a smartphone before releasing his two Rotom from their Poké Balls. The Rotom proceeded to enter Ash and Goh's smartphones, turning them into Rotom Phones. Since then, Cerise has been sending Ash and Go on various missions around the Pokémon world.

In Dreams Are Made of These!, Cerise accompanies some children during the Pokémon Orienteering competition, where he competed against a time led by Chloe and Goh and another led by Ash. At the end of the day, his team becomes the winner of the competition when they arrive before in the agreed location, at the end of the day, however, he encourages all participants to pursue their respective dreams.

Character

Professor Cerise is a calm, but friendly person. He is very knowledgeable about Pokémon, being deemed a genius since he was young.
