Read more ↓Samson Oak is a character from the Pokémon Sun and Moon anime series, introduced as the cousin of the famous Professor Samuel Oak. He is a researcher based in the Alola region, specializing in regional variants of Pokémon and their unique adaptations. Unlike his more studious cousin, Samson Oak is known for his jovial and laid-back personality, often sporting a Hawaiian shirt and enjoying the tropical climate of Alola. He frequently appears at the Pokémon School in Melemele Island, where he educates Ash and his classmates about various Pokémon and their habitats. His role in the anime is primarily to provide exposition and comic relief, often through his quirky observations and puns. Samson Oak represents the relaxed, vacation-like atmosphere of the Alola region, contrasting with the more traditional research settings in other regions. He does not have an evolution line as he is a human character, and his significance lies in expanding the lore of the Oak family and connecting the Alola region to the broader Pokémon world.
