Read more ↓Bill is not a Pokémon but rather a prominent character within the Pokémon universe, renowned as the creator of the Pokémon Storage System. Introduced in the very first generation of Pokémon games, Pokémon Red, Blue, and Green, he is a quirky scientist who initially appears to have accidentally transformed himself into a Pokémon-like creature, specifically a Clefairy in the English versions. Players encounter him in his Sea Cottage on Route 25, where they help him revert to human form, earning a free S.S. Anne Ticket as a reward. Bill's invention, the Pokémon Storage System, revolutionized how trainers managed their ever-growing collection of Pokémon, allowing them to deposit and withdraw Pokémon from anywhere with a PC. His role is purely supportive, providing essential infrastructure for the trainer's journey rather than participating in battles. He also makes appearances in later games and the anime, often involved in technological advancements or research related to Pokémon. His character embodies the scientific and innovative spirit within the Pokémon world, highlighting the importance of technology in the world of Pokémon training and research.
