(Japanese: モンド Mondo) is a member of Team Rocket who assists the trio of Jessie, James, and Meowth with supplies and escapes while they are in the Kanto region.

Appearances

Mondo's only major appearance was in the radio drama It's a White Tomorrow, Team Rocket!. This radio drama portrayed one of the regular meetings between Mondo and Jessie, James, and Meowth. Mondo traded his Ditto for Meowth, but the deal did not work out and each Pokémon returned to its original party.

Mondo has great admiration for Jessie, James, and Meowth, and has a crush on Jessie. He calls Jessie and James 先輩 senpai and appears to worship Meowth.

It appears that Mondo is only available to help Jessie, James, and Meowth in the Kanto region, as they often go without food and supplies while in other regions.

Unlike many other Team Rocket members, Mondo is not shown to travel or work with any other designated Rockets. It is probable that Giovanni has not yet assigned him to any important missions since he appears quite young. This would explain why he acts as the supplier for other Team Rocket members, rather than participating in any criminal activities.

Mondo also appears in the booklet for the Sound Picture Box - The Birth of Mewtwo drama CD on a character guide depicting members of Team Rocket, along with Jessie, James, Meowth, Miyamoto, Madame Boss, and Giovanni. Despite appearing on the chart, he doesn't appear in the The Birth of Mewtwo drama itself.
