With the exception of R/S/E, why does the player character never have a father in Pokemon games?

Because you can't be a man unless you don't have a father.

Kanto has its war theories but it's mainly just a japanese thing. Notice how Norman is never home either.

That or there's one that doesn't appear and isn't mentioned at all. The only exceptions I can think of right now are Hercules, Brave and The Incredibles.

Giovanni has one son which is canon. That son is Silver confirmed by FRLG's fame checker referencing Silver's red hair and with HGSS's Celebi event.

The probable answer is that they're on a journey themselves or they were caught up in that "war" that's been referenced a few times.
