As a professor working for the Aether Foundation, he was the first to confirm the existence of Ultra Wormholes and Ultra Beasts. A few years before the events of and , he vanished while on a mission to try to connect to an Ultra Wormhole, leaving behind only a weakened Cosmog, some papers on the Ultra Beast, , and a theory on the Ultra Wormholes. It is uncertain how he ended up on Poké Pelago, and it is never discussed during the events of the games. Scientists found in Professor Burnet's Dimensional Research lab in Heahea City mention Mohn and his research on Ultra Wormholes, implying that some of his research was publicly known.

Research found in the same lab suggests that is speculated to be a type of Ultra Beast from another dimension that can create Ultra Wormholes under extreme life-taking stress. This dimension that it comes from was named Ultra Space. The Aether Foundation is working to experiment on Cosmog's stress in order to manipulate Ultra Wormholes to appear.
In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, after defeating Gladion at the , a month after the events of the game, Mohn will pay a visit to Aether Paradise. Upon seeing Lusamine, he introduces himself as Mohn and compares the Paradise to Poké Pelago.

He does not seem to recognize the facility or Lusamine. Accepting that Mohn has both completely forgotten his past and finally found happiness, Lusamine bids him farewell.

====Background====
Years before the events in the manga, Mohn worked at the Aether Foundation alongside his wife Lusamine. As time went on, he started doubting the way the foundation is ran and as a result, Faba secretly pushed Mohn into an Ultra Wormhole, disappearing into it. This is what caused Lusamine to lose her mind and become obsessed with Ultra Beasts overtime as she assumed he actually abandoned her and their children for hating the foundation.
At some point, Mohn returned to Alola, but had developed amnesia, holding onto a pendant with a photo of his family inside it. He didn't remember his own name nor theirs, however, he knew they were really important to him and really wanted to see them again.
