    Professor Ivy was the Orange Islands' professor, and the Orange Islands were only seen in the anime.

    And it's all right to have a Professor Pine if that's what you want. I was just pointing out that for a lot of the experienced writers in this fandom, Professor Pines are everywhere.

    Oh...
    Wow.
    I never really even read any fanfics :P
    I couldn't think of any other tree that would actually sound decent.
    "Professor Christmas"
    Not a good tree :P
    Ah, well, I'm fine with simple ol' pine.

    But...
    Ivy was the anime's invention?
    When did they mention an Ivy?

    Yes, but nearly every time a writer needs a professor, the name chosen is "Professor Pine". It happened so many times in the past that it's just a big joke to most of the fandom's writers.

    By the way, there's also Professor Elm, the Johto professor. Ivy was the anime's invention, but Elm is everywhere.

    In response to your post in my fanfic, aren't the 4 professors Oak, Ivy, Birch, and Rowan?
