Background / History

Wang He formerly served as a Pokémon Investigator and was once a Gym Leader-level Trainer. After retiring from the Inspection Department, he became the chief supervisor of Mu Yun and the other students at Songjiang No. 1 High School 124 181 182.

As an instructor, Wang He established a strict, military-style training environment. He required obedience, discipline, and orderly formation, while also paying close attention to each student’s character and potential 63 140 188. He arranged weekend access to the school’s gymnasium and Gravity Room largely to support Mu Yun’s development 69 83.

Wang He quickly recognized Mu Yun as an unusually talented and hardworking student. He regarded Mu Yun as the core of the six-person group and deliberately protected and guided him while allowing him to grow independently 83. He also taught Mu Yun to assess his own limits and choose missions according to capability rather than greed or impulse 144.

He later accompanied Mu Yun on field missions, including the investigation of a controlled sewer habitat for Poison-type Pokémon. Wang He provided protection while allowing Mu Yun to gain practical combat experience 145. During later competitions, he supervised the students, collected battle footage, and prepared match analyses for their development 216.

Appearance

Wang He has a heavily built, military-like appearance that creates an intimidating first impression.

• Sharp, pressuring gaze that makes students lower their heads 63

Personality

Wang He is strict, disciplined, and strongly opposed to lax training habits. His teaching emphasizes obedience, routine, physical conditioning, and learning from both victory and defeat 63 140 188.

Despite his harsh manner, he is a protective and attentive mentor. He recognizes effort as well as talent, values Mu Yun’s kindness and leadership qualities, and is willing to spend significant time and resources nurturing promising students 83 182. He also shows practical judgment, encouraging Mu Yun to act within his limits and avoid missions with uncertain outcomes 144.

His professional confidence is frequently challenged by Mu Yun’s abnormal growth and Xiao Du’s impossible-looking abilities. Wang He responds with disbelief and increasingly elaborate suspicions, but his astonishment is accompanied by genuine respect 84 85.
