Mike Pollock (also known as Herb Lawrence) is an American voice actor and is famous for dubbing some programs on 4Kids Entertainment, including some promos for the Fox Box programming block (2002-2004). He started provided voices for the Pokémon anime in its fourth season and would inherit the Narrator role from Rodger Parsons during season 6, retaining it through the remainder of the 4Kids-dubbed seasons, movies, and specials.
Following the acquisition of the anime license by Pokémon USA, Pollock subsequently departed from the series, but later returned as other characters during Season 11. Two seasons later, Craig Blair (his replacement as Raoul Contesta) left the show, allowing him to reprise his role.
