HMS Pomone was a Pelorus-class protected cruiser built for the Royal Navy in the late 1890s.

This class served as testbeds for a variety of water-tube boiler designs and those used by Pomone were so unsatisfactory that the ship was decommissioned after only five years of service.

The ship only served a single commission, with the East Indies Squadron and suffered from continuous boiler problems.

[6][7] In November and December 1903, Pomone and three other cruisers escorted Lord Curzon's tour of the Middle East.

Pomone was disarmed and hulked on 5 January 1910 as a stationary training ship for engineers at the Royal Naval College, Dartmouth.
