That healing power could have saved so many people, but to appease mere Pokemon...?! He made the wrong choice! If I were in charge I could lead the research so much better. I am right. That's it, I just have to get the power and prove I am right! If I just get rid of the Molybdenums...
~ Dr. Zed in a video log.

Dr. Zed is the main antagonist of Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle. He is a researcher who is obsessed with obtaining the secret of the Forest of Okoya and is Koko's archenemy.

He is voiced by Kōichi Yamadera in the Japanese version and the late Billy Kametz in the English version.

What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]

  • He told Koko that his parents, Dr. Chrom and Phossa Molybdenum both died in a car crash as an accident, but he actually purposely caused the car crash, making him the first human in the anime who has successfully murdered another human.
    • He even tried to murder Koko, who was a baby at the time, meaning that Zed has no problem with murdering children to get what he wants, let alone infants. He later sadistically gloats to Koko about this and tells him his parents made the wrong choice.
  • Despite Koko refusing to lead him to the Great Tree, he still placed a tracker chip on Koko without his knowledge or permission.
  • He deceived his workers into thinking they were only going to study the healing spring when he really intended to rip the energy straight from the tree, which would devastate the ecosystem and the Zarude living there. He also treats his men badly when they defy him, pushing one out of a mecha without caring if he was hurt by the fall.
  • He attacks an entire Pokémon colony, being fully willing to kill them all in order to obtain the healing energy from the tree.
  • Starting a mass destruction across the forest, which even terrified his workers.
  • While it’s implied he started out with good intentions as he claimed the healing energy could save countless lives, his greed and obsession with proving himself right caused him to abandon these standards and he commits his actions for his own selfish gain, and has no problem killing humans and Pokemon alike.
  • Even after being arrested, he can be seen scowling at the camera filming his incarceration before the doors close, showing no remorse for his crimes.
