John Pocket is Polly's father. He was mentioned in "Polly Pocket: Lunar Eclipse" and "Polly Pocket: 2 Cool at the Pocket Plaza" before making his official debut in "PollyWorld."
In "PollyWorld," John created a fancy amusement park called PollyWorld, where Polly's class participates in the competition show Roll Like That. During lunch at the Sky Lounge, he tells Polly he has a big surprise for her. John was engaged to a woman named Lorelei. Lorelei initially acts nice to Polly, who becomes uncomfortable about getting a stepmother. John doesn't realize that Lorelei is jealous of his affection for Polly and has no intention of being a mother figure to her. To have John to herself, Lorelei convinces him that Polly is stressed out and needs structure. He arranges for Polly to attend boarding school after the show ends.
After the race around PollyWorld, Beth inadvertently spills that she already knew about boarding school before Polly told anyone. When questioned, Evie reveals that Beth overheard it from Lorelei.
Polly becomes suspicious and realizes that boarding school wasn't John's idea. Shani catches a video conversation between Lorelei and Beth, scheming to get Beth involved. Shani saves it on a DVD, and they decide to show it to Polly's father. But once Polly sees how happy John is with Lorelei, she can't bear to ruin his happiness. Despite the injustice she faced, Polly values her father's happiness and decides to destroy the disc, ultimately deciding to have the best week ever with her friends before she goes to boarding school.
During Polly and the Pockets' performance during the final concert, Beth threatens to reveal Lorelei's secret in a sound booth unless Lorelei helps Beth's team win. During their conversation, Beth accidentally sits a button, turning on a microphone, revealing that the live audience, including John, heard their scheming.
John confronts Lorelei for lying to him and calls off the engagement, leaving Lorelei devastated. Although it was not shown, he presumably escorted Lorelei out of PollyWorld. Later, John sits on a bench, feeling terrible that he didn't see through Lorelei, and apologizes to Polly. John says he'd call Samuel and convince him to come back, and he tells Polly that she doesn't have to go to boarding school. John and Polly are last seen hugging as they watch fireworks.
