Item from pokemon-adventures-frlg by
A communication device used by Professor Oak to send cryptic messages guiding the Pokedex holders across the Sevii Islands.
The Fame Checker is how Professor Oak communicated with Red, Blue, and Green before and during his captivity. He pre-loaded it with cryptic messages and biographical data, essentially leaving a trail of breadcrumbs for his Pokedex holders to follow. The device contained enough information to guide the trio across the Sevii Islands without revealing Oak's true location or plans prematurely. It is a characteristically Oak solution -- trust your students with just enough information to succeed, and let them figure out the rest.
A small electronic device with a screen that displays biographical data and recorded messages. It looks like a simplified tablet -- functional, unassuming, and easy to overlook among more dramatic items.
