He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash appears to be indifferent to love and romance, the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree.<br /> <br /> Ash's appearance differs in the manga as well. He wears a red jacket, much like {{ga|Red}}'s, instead of the blue he wears in the anime. Also, for the duration of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]], he wears a different hat, which is solid red with a &quot;PM&quot; on the front. Beginning in ''[[ET05|The Human Race and the Pokémon Race]]'', his hat is changed to match the one he wears in the anime.<br /> <br /> Ash owns many of the same Pokémon as in the anime, with a few exceptions: he captures a {{AP|Fearow}} and an {{p|Oddish}}. He also captures a {{p|Mankey}}, which he trades to a shady salesman for a map of [[Mt. Moon]], and a giant {{p|Slowpoke}}, which he trades to [[Gary Oak]].<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map of [[Mt.

This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]]. Of these three, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.<br /> * He always catches a local bird-like Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh. Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When ''[[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]]'' airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash appears to be indifferent to love and romance, the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree.<br /> <br /> Ash's appearance differs in the manga as well. He wears a red jacket, much like {{ga|Red}}'s, instead of the blue he wears in the anime. Also, for the duration of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]], he wears a different hat, which is solid red with a &quot;PM&quot; on the front. Beginning in ''[[ET05|The Human Race and the Pokémon Race]]'', his hat is changed to match the one he wears in the anime.<br /> <br /> Ash owns many of the same Pokémon as in the anime, with a few exceptions: he captures a {{AP|Fearow}} and an {{p|Oddish}}. He also captures a {{p|Mankey}}, which he trades to a shady salesman for a map of [[Mt. Moon]], and a giant {{p|Slowpoke}}, which he trades to [[Gary Oak]].<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map of [[Mt.

This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]]. Of these three, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.<br /> * He always catches a local bird-like Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh. Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When ''[[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]]'' airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash appears to be indifferent to love and romance, the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree.<br /> <br /> Ash's appearance differs in the manga as well. He wears a red jacket, much like {{ga|Red}}'s, instead of the blue he wears in the anime. Also, for the duration of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]], he wears a different hat, which is solid red with a &quot;PM&quot; on the front. Beginning in ''[[ET05|The Human Race and the Pokémon Race]]'', his hat is changed to match the one he wears in the anime.<br /> <br /> Ash owns many of the same Pokémon as in the anime, with a few exceptions: he captures a {{AP|Fearow}} and an {{p|Oddish}}. He also captures a {{p|Mankey}}, which he trades to a shady salesman for a map of [[Mt. Moon]], and a giant {{p|Slowpoke}}, which he trades to [[Gary Oak]].<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map of [[Mt.

This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]]. Of these three, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.<br /> * He always catches a local bird-like Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh. Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When ''[[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]]'' airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash appears to be indifferent to love and romance, the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree.<br /> <br /> Ash's appearance differs in the manga as well. He wears a red jacket, much like {{ga|Red}}'s, instead of the blue he wears in the anime. Also, for the duration of the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]], he wears a different hat, which is solid red with a &quot;PM&quot; on the front. Beginning in ''[[ET05|The Human Race and the Pokémon Race]]'', his hat is changed to match the one he wears in the anime.<br /> <br /> Ash owns many of the same Pokémon as in the anime, with a few exceptions: he captures a {{AP|Fearow}} and an {{p|Oddish}}. He also captures a {{p|Mankey}}, which he trades to a shady salesman for a map of [[Mt. Moon]], and a giant {{p|Slowpoke}}, which he trades to [[Gary Oak]].<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map of [[Mt.

This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]]. Of these three, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.<br /> * He always catches a local bird-like Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh. Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When ''[[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]]'' airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}.<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

We're It! |<br /> enva=[[Billy Regan]]|<br /> java=''Kōzō Mito'' |<br /> }}<br /> '''Conway''' (Japanese: '''コウヘイ''' ''Kōhei'') is a recurring character from the {{pkmn|anime}}. His first appearance was in [[DP050|''Tag! We're It!'']] as {{an|Dawn}}'s tag-team partner.<br /> <br /> ==Characteristics and history==<br /> Conway was shown to be a very smart Trainer. His strategies played an important role in helping himself and {{an|Dawn}} to advance to the finals of the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]].<br /> <br /> Conway appears again in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'' through ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!]]'' during a four-episode arc at a summer school. During this arc he demonstrates his knowledge about Pokémon as well as an [[HeatTagShipping|attraction]] towards Dawn. He later appears at the end of the opening ''[[The Greatest - Everyday!]]''.<br /> <br /> His most recent appearance is in episode [[DP182]], where it is revealed he is also entering the [[Suzuran Conference]]. In [[DP183]], he passed the first round, then in [[DP184]] he made it through the second and had his third round opponent revealed to be {{Ash}}. He will battle Ash in [[DP185]]. <br /> <br /> Conway uses very effective strategies, but doesn't improvise much, something that has led to several losses for him. Examples include using {{m|Psychic}} to redirect an attack, using {{m|Protect}} while another Pokémon attacks, and so on.<br /> <br /> ==Pokémon==<br /> This listing is of Conway's known Pokémon:<br /> {{TrainerPoké<br /> |trainer=Conway<br /> |pkmn=Slowking<br /> |type1=Water<br /> |type2=Psychic<br /> |img=Conway Slowking.png<br /> |epnum=DP050<br /> |epname=Tag!

When {{an|Dawn}} first meets Conway, Slowking is with him and Dawn thinks both are creepy, but Conway tells her that Slowking has taken a liking to her. On their first battle, Conway tells Dawn to not worry about defense, so her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} uses several moves and Slowking keeps on defending it with attacks like {{m|Safeguard}}. It is later seen again in the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] where it showed off some impresive moves agaist [[Jessie's Yanmega]].<br /> <br /> Slowking's known moves are {{m|Safeguard}}, {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Psychic}} and {{m|Water Pulse}}.}}<br /> {{TrainerPoké<br /> |trainer=Conway<br /> |pkmn=Heracross<br /> |type1=Bug<br /> |type2=Fighting<br /> |img=Conway Heracross.png<br /> |epnum=DP052<br /> |epname=Smells Like Team Spirit!<br /> |desc={{p|Heracross}} is first seen in Conway and Dawn's [[tag battle]] against [[Paul]] and {{Ash}}. Immediately Ash tells [[Ash's Infernape|Chimchar]] to focus on attacking Heracross with {{type2|Fire}} attacks. However Chimchar is countered by [[Dawn's Buizel]] many times. Paul also once commanded his [[Paul's Electivire|Elekid]] to attack Heracross, without any result, however. Heracross was finally taken down by a direct hit from Chimchar's {{m|Flamethrower}}.<br /> <br /> Heracross's known moves are {{m|Revenge}}, {{m|Feint}}, and {{m|Megahorn}}.}}<br /> {{TrainerPoké<br /> |trainer=Conway<br /> |pkmn=Aggron<br /> |type1=Steel<br /> |type2=Rock<br /> |img=Conway Aggron.png<br /> |epnum=DP051<br /> |epname=Glory Blaze!<br /> |desc=Not much is known about Conway's {{p|Aggron}}.

He is from [[Veilstone City]] in [[Sinnoh]]. He was first seen at the end of ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation]]'', though his full introduction was in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]''. He is {{Ash}}'s first and main [[Diamond &amp; Pearl series|Diamond and Pearl series]] rival; his next rival would be {{an|Barry}}.<br /> <br /> ==Personality and training==<br /> Paul's only concern in his [[Pokémon]] is of their strength in {{pkmn|battle}}. He strongly dislikes weak Pokémon and has a habit of {{pkmn2|released|releasing}} them if they do not meet his high expectations. To this effect, Paul always checks new {{pkmn2|caught|captures}} with his [[Pokédex]] to learn what [[move]]s they know and {{pkmn|training|trains}} the Pokémon he keeps harshly to make them strong. He feels that [[Happiness|bonding]] with Pokémon would only turn them into slackers. He also has a habit of scolding his Pokémon for losing to opponents he feels they could have beaten, and this was a recurring trait when he owned {{AP|Chimchar}}. As a person, he is very callous and even at times brutal, especially in {{pkmn|battle}}; and as a result, he has been shown to have very little emotion other than an occasional rough smile.<br /> <br /> Sometimes, he gives some of his Pokémon to his brother, [[Reggie]], for temporary training and caretaking, as revealed in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''. Paul also disagrees with his brother for giving up on being a [[Pokémon Trainer]] after failing to get the [[Symbol|Brave Symbol]]. He feels his brother's approach and view on this to be wrong. Reggie cares about his brother, but has no illusions about Paul's character. He openly admits that Paul has always had a cruel streak.<br /> <br /> ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'' was an important episode that revealed much about Paul's motivation as a Pokémon trainer and more about his character. When Reggie was a roaming Pokémon trainer, he had lost to {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}. Reggie's loss to Brandon is what caused Paul to be so adamant about strength in battle. This single loss is also what caused Paul to become the callous person he was, and that was because of how his brother handled the loss. Instead of bearing the shame of his loss to Brandon, Reggie moved on with his life and put the loss behind him. Paul found this to be unacceptable, and he became disappointed of his brother. He challenged Brandon to a [[full battle]] in hopes that he would be able to do what his brother never could. However, Paul lost to Brandon without being able to [[Unable to battle|knock out]] any of Brandon's Pokémon. Brandon says that this loss was because Paul was unable to control his emotions.<br /> <br /> At the beginning it was assumed that Paul was a trainer just starting out. However this was proven false in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'' where he revealed that he had already traveled through [[Kanto]], [[Johto]] and [[Hoenn]], participating in their respective {{pkmn|League}}s but didn't win anything before returning to [[Sinnoh]]. In ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', it was revealed that Kanto was the very first region he traveled through.<br /> <br /> Paul feels that Ash is a weak trainer and can easily bring on Ash's anger by stating it. Ash's very different attitude towards being friends with Pokémon also provides much fuel to their rivalry. Out of all the rivals that Ash has, Paul seems to be the most harsh towards him and his Pokémon. Despite that, Paul barely recognizes their rivalry and Ash as a trainer and ignores Ash's speeches about loving his Pokémon. Ash on the other hand has a hatred of Paul that flares up at Paul's indifference to his Pokémon. However Ash accepts that Paul is a strong trainer but considers himself on the same par as him. Paul's only hint of respect for Ash was in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'' when he was very surprised to hear that Ash had beaten Brandon in a Pokémon battle before.<br /> <br /> Although Paul finds most of {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} weak, he has shown a particular interest in his {{AP|Pikachu}}, as shown in ''A Gruff Act To Follow'', after Pikachu used Thundershock on Roark's Cranidos. Paul is also angered by how Ash contradicts himself by criticizing Paul's {{pkmn|training}} methods and then uses similar ones, such as entering the [[Wallace Cup]], despite Ash's motivations being clearly different than Paul's.<br /> [[File:Reggie and Paul.png|left|thumb|250px|Reggie and Paul]]<br /> Paul appears to feel indifference to {{an|Dawn}}, showing that he didn't even know her name in ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow]]''. Paul shows mild respect as well as distaste towards {{an|Brock}}, probably because Brock supports Ash's view on Pokémon. Paul does show respect for his elders, such as [[Professor Rowan]], [[Cynthia]], [[Nurse Joy]] and {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} .<br /> <br /> Following Reggie's suggestion in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', Paul battled {{Ash}} in a [[full battle]] in ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'' and ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]''. Here, he shows his true colors in battle and, despite Ash's {{p|Chimchar}} evolving into {{AP|Monferno}} and three of Ash's Pokémon using the [[Counter Shield]] strategy, Paul won the match easily with only at a loss of two Pokémon overall, where {{p|Ursaring|one}} defeated half of Ash's team nearly single-handedly. He had his Pokémon use a broad variety of strategies, which he kept up his sleeve until this battle, such as tempting Ash to send his {{AP|Staraptor}} up against his {{p|Torterra}} so he could attack it with {{m|Stone Edge}}, {{p|Electabuzz}} using {{m|Light Screen}} to aid its comrades, using his Ursaring against [[Ash's Pikachu]] so as to activate its {{a|Guts}} ability, and his {{p|Magmortar}} using {{m|Rock Tomb}} to protect itself against Water-type attacks. As a result, his strategy of completely overwhelming and outsmarting Ash with his more powerful Pokémon team succeeded.<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]'', it was revealed that Paul had earned the {{Badge|Mine}} from [[Canalave Gym]] and, by doing so, had collected the eight badges he required to enter the [[Sinnoh League]].<br /> <br /> Paul reappeared in ''[[DP163|Fighting Ire with Fire!]]'', encountering Ash for the first time since their full battle. He also met his admirer {{an|Barry}} for the first time; however, Paul wasn't impressed by him and refused his offer for a battle, suggesting he battle Ash instead. He later watched the battle between [[Ash's Monferno]] and [[Barry's Empoleon]] and when {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and Empoleon were nearly crushed by one of [[Team Rocket]]'s damaged mechas, he saved the three with the help of [[Paul's Electabuzz|his Electabuzz]]. He then witnessed Monferno evolving into {{AP|Infernape}}, who then saved Electabuzz and the other Pokémon from getting crushed. Paul was impressed by Infernape, and gained a little respect for Ash at how well he had raised it. When asked by Ash if they could have another full battle, Paul confirmed they would in the [[Sinnoh League]], and that Reggie was looking forward to seeing it.<br /> <br /> In [[DP182]], he was shown in the stadium along with all the other competitors. In [[DP183]], he passed the preliminary round.<br /> <br /> In [[DP184]], he will battle&lt;!--defeat--&gt; {{an|Barry}} in the [[Suzuran Conference]], and will battle his rival Ash in [[DP186]].<br /> <br /> ==Pokémon==<br /> As a result of Paul's selective [[Party|team]] creation, his active team is composed of Pokémon that he deems to be powerful. While the captures of Ursaring and Gliscor were shown in ''[[DP006|Different Strokes for Different Blokes]]'' and ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]'' respectively, the rest were obtained off-screen.<br /> <br /> This listing is of Paul's Pokémon as of the most recent Japanese episode:<br /> ===On hand===<br /> {{TrainerPoké<br /> |main=yes<br /> |trainer=Paul<br /> |pkmn=Torterra<br /> |type1=Grass<br /> |type2=Ground<br /> |img=Paul Torterra.png<br /> |epnum=DP040<br /> |epname=Top-Down Training!<br /> |vajp=Unshō Ishizuka<br /> |vaen=Jimmy Zoppi{{!}}Billy Beach<br /> |desc={{p|Torterra}} is Paul's strongest Pokémon and his {{pkmn2|starter}} as well.

However, his name and role was not revealed until the following week and so he received the fan name &quot;Nugai&quot; during that time, coined by Bulbagarden admin Pie as a play on the phrase &quot;new guy&quot;.<br /> * His Japanese name, ''Shinji'', can be taken to be 信二, which literally means ''faithful second (son)''. This fits, as he has an older brother, [[Reggie]]. He may be named for 宮崎慎二 ''[[Shinji Miyazaki]]'', who is the composer of the music of the Pokémon anime. The name Paul, meanwhile, is a reference to Paul Baron, a staff member at The Pokémon Company, as well as {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Pearl|s}}, in contrast to {{an|Dawn}} referencing {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond|s}}. This can also be applied to his Japanese name&amp;mdash; the Japanese word for &quot;pearl&quot; is ''shinju'' (真珠), though there is no such link for Dawn's Japanese name. There is, however, a link in Dawn's own rival, {{si|Kenny}}, whose Japanese name of ケンゴ ''Kengo'' is similar to the Japanese 金剛 ''kongo''. His Japanese name also shares the Japanese name of [[Lake Verity]].<br /> [[Image:GameFreak Silver.jpg|thumb|Sketch of Silver]]<br /> * Several similarities have been noted between Paul and a game rival, {{ga|Silver}}. Their personalities are especially similar in that they both are rather cold towards not only the people around them, but also to their Pokémon. Another interesting similarity is that the pose used in Paul's stock art is the same as the pose in a picture of Silver drawn by [[Ken Sugimori]], right down to the angle and position of the hands and feet. Paul has similar taste in Pokémon to the {{adv|Silver}} portrayed in Pokémon Adventures. Both have an {{p|Ursaring}} and a {{p|Weavile}}. Both have also owned a {{p|Murkrow}} at one point and furthermore, when Silver had a cameo in the original Japanese opening of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', he was seen with a Nidoking, another Pokémon that Paul has.<br /> ** Furthermore, both have challenged, been defeated easily by, and been advised about raising their Pokémon properly i.e with love and care, by their respective regional [[Champion|Champions]], [[Lance]] and [[Cynthia]] respectively. However, while Lance's words were the catalyst for Silver becoming a better person, it is unknown yet if Cynthia's words have really affected Paul in any way.<br /> * The majority of the Pokémon that Paul has on his team are part of an [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolution family]] related to [[Generation II]]. <br /> ** {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}} was introduced in Generation II.<br /> ** {{TP|Paul|Honchkrow}}, {{p|Weavile}} and {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}} are [[Generation IV]] Pokémon, but evolve from Generation II Pokémon ({{p|Murkrow}}, {{p|Sneasel}} and {{p|Gligar}}, respectively).<br /> ** {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}} and {{TP|Paul|Magmar|Magmortar}} were introduced in [[Generation I]], but evolve from Generation II Pokémon ({{p|Elekid}} and {{p|Magby}}, respectively).<br /> * Some of Paul's Pokémon are based off Pokémon owned by other rivals of Ash and his friends. There are also some traits he shares with Ash's main rival, {{Gary}}:<br /> ** [[Paul's Torterra]] is similar to [[Gary's Blastoise]], as in that they are turtle-based [[starter Pokémon]]. <br /> ** [[Paul's Electabuzz]] is in the same evolution family as [[Gary's Electivire]].<br /> ** Gary's {{p|Magmar}} is in the same evolution family as [[Paul's Magmortar]]. <br /> ** Both trainers own a {{p|Nidoking}}. <br /> ** Paul often acts rudely to Ash, much like {{Gary}} did until the end of the Johto saga.<br /> * Three of {{Ash}}'s Pokémon have evolved while battling against Paul: Turtwig into {{AP|Grotle}}, Staravia into {{AP|Staraptor}}, and Chimchar into Monferno.<br /> ** However, four have evolved in the presence of Paul: the three mentioned above, and Monferno evolving into {{AP|Infernape}}.<br /> * Paul is the first regular rival seen capturing a Pokémon on screen.<br /> * Paul's Nidoking is so far the only Pokémon that Paul has to have a confirmed and known gender, due to its species.<br /> * Paul has been known to have conflicting views on his own training strategies. In one battle he claims the Trainer is at fault for all losses, yet whenever one of Paul's Pokémon has lost, Paul blames them.<br /> * Paul has been defeated very easily twice in the series.<br /> ** In ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'', Paul loses to [[Cynthia]], without knocking out any of her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, hardly damaging her {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}}, and ultimately lost - and gave up after using 4 of the 6 Pokémon in his [[party]].<br /> ** In ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', Paul loses to {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}, hardly injuring his [[Brandon's Regis|Regirock, Registeel and Regice]], all six of his Pokémon being defeated in the process.<br /> ** Both of these trainers spoke to him after their victory; Cynthia told Paul to raise his Pokémon with love and respect, and Brandon told him that he lost because he can't control his emotions.<br /> <br /> ===Names===<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care. Ash's battle style is generally spontaneous and fairly unorthodox, and his Pokémon often reflect these traits.<br /> <br /> ====On hand====<br /> This section is based on the Pokémon with Ash in the most recent episode to air in Japan.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash is indifferent to love, romance, or members of the opposite gender (or arguably, the same), the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree. <br /> <br /> Ash's appearance is very different in the manga, too. Ash wears a red jacket much like Red. He also wears a very different hat throughout the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]]. However, in the sixth chapter, ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question!]]'' he wears a hat that resembles the hat he wears in the Pokémon anime. He appears with [[Ash's Pikachu|his Pikachu]] on his shoulder.<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map, which turned out to be fake.<br /> * '''Giant Slowpoke''': Given away to {{Gary}} for [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]'s photo.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring Ash or his Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].<br /> <br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #999; border-collapse: collapse; background: white;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #{{tcg Lightning color}};&quot; <br /> !Name<br /> !Type<br /> !Level<br /> !Rarity<br /> !Set<br /> !Set no.<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|7th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Torkoal|9}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|7th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 009/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Grovyle|1}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 001/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Phanpy|4}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 004/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Swellow|7}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 007/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|9th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Aipom|10}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|9th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 010/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|ADV-P Promo|Ash's Treecko|36}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|ADV-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 036/ADV-P<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Pikachu M|12}} || {{e|Lightning}} || 45 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 012/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Staraptor M|18}} || {{e|Colorless}} || 41 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 018/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|DPt-P Promo|Pikachu M LV.X|43}} || {{e|Lightning}} || ''X'' || - || {{TCG|DPt-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 043/DPt-P<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:Ash catches a Pokémon.png|thumb|250px|Ash after catching a Pokémon]]<br /> * Ash has captured each [[generation]]'s {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]]: {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita}}, {{AP|Treecko}} and {{AP|Turtwig}}.<br /> * Ash has also captured every {{type2|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] whose English names begins with a 'C' and whose Japanese names begins with a 'ヒ' ''hi'': {{AP|Charmander}} (''Hitokage''), {{AP|Cyndaquil}} (''Hinoarashi''), and {{AP|Chimchar}} (''Hikozaru'').<br /> *Ash has captured, befriended, used, or otherwise had under his command at least one of every type of Pokémon except for {{type2|Dark}} and {{type2|Steel}}.<br /> * In both the [[Timeline of events in the anime#Kanto|Kanto]] and [[Timeline of events in the anime#Johto|Johto]] story arcs, Ash managed to capture all three of the starter Pokémon for both regions. This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]]. Of these four, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.<br /> * He always catches a local bird-like Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh. Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When [[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]] airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding [[Reshiram]] and [[Zekrom]].<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash is indifferent to love, romance, or members of the opposite gender (or arguably, the same), the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree. <br /> <br /> Ash's appearance is very different in the manga, too. Ash wears a red jacket much like Red. He also wears a very different hat throughout the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]]. However, in the sixth chapter, ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question!]]'' he wears a hat that resembles the hat he wears in the Pokémon anime. He appears with [[Ash's Pikachu|his Pikachu]] on his shoulder.<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map, which turned out to be fake.<br /> * '''Giant Slowpoke''': Given away to {{Gary}} for [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]'s photo.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring Ash or his Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].<br /> <br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #999; border-collapse: collapse; background: white;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #{{tcg Lightning color}};&quot; <br /> !Name<br /> !Type<br /> !Level<br /> !Rarity<br /> !Set<br /> !Set no.<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|7th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Torkoal|9}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|7th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 009/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Grovyle|1}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 001/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Phanpy|4}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 004/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Swellow|7}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 007/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|9th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Aipom|10}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|9th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 010/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|ADV-P Promo|Ash's Treecko|36}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|ADV-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 036/ADV-P<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Pikachu M|12}} || {{e|Lightning}} || 45 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 012/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Staraptor M|18}} || {{e|Colorless}} || 41 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 018/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|DPt-P Promo|Pikachu M LV.X|43}} || {{e|Lightning}} || ''X'' || - || {{TCG|DPt-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 043/DPt-P<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:Ash catches a Pokémon.png|thumb|250px|Ash after catching a Pokémon]]<br /> * Ash has captured each [[generation]]'s {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]]: {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita}}, {{AP|Treecko}} and {{AP|Turtwig}}.<br /> * Ash has also captured every {{type2|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] whose English names begins with a 'C' and whose Japanese names begins with a 'ヒ' ''hi'': {{AP|Charmander}} (''Hitokage''), {{AP|Cyndaquil}} (''Hinoarashi''), and {{AP|Chimchar}} (''Hikozaru'').<br /> *Ash has captured, befriended, used, or otherwise had under his command at least one of every type of Pokémon except for {{type2|Dark}} and {{type2|Steel}}.<br /> * In both the [[Timeline of events in the anime#Kanto|Kanto]] and [[Timeline of events in the anime#Johto|Johto]] story arcs, Ash managed to capture all three of the starter Pokémon for both regions. This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]]. Of these four, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.<br /> * He always catches a local bird-like Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh. Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When [[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]] airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding [[Reshiram]] and [[Zekrom]].<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash is indifferent to love, romance, or members of the opposite gender (or arguably, the same), the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree. <br /> <br /> Ash's appearance is very different in the manga, too. Ash wears a red jacket much like Red. He also wears a very different hat throughout the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]]. However, in the sixth chapter, ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question!]]'' he wears a hat that resembles the hat he wears in the Pokémon anime. He appears with [[Ash's Pikachu|his Pikachu]] on his shoulder.<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map, which turned out to be fake.<br /> * '''Giant Slowpoke''': Given away to {{Gary}} for [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]'s photo.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring Ash or his Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].<br /> <br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #999; border-collapse: collapse; background: white;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #{{tcg Lightning color}};&quot; <br /> !Name<br /> !Type<br /> !Level<br /> !Rarity<br /> !Set<br /> !Set no.<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|7th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Torkoal|9}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|7th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 009/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Grovyle|1}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 001/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Phanpy|4}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 004/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Swellow|7}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 007/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|9th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Aipom|10}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|9th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 010/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|ADV-P Promo|Ash's Treecko|36}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|ADV-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 036/ADV-P<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Pikachu M|12}} || {{e|Lightning}} || 45 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 012/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Staraptor M|18}} || {{e|Colorless}} || 41 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 018/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|DPt-P Promo|Pikachu M LV.X|43}} || {{e|Lightning}} || ''X'' || - || {{TCG|DPt-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 043/DPt-P<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:Ash catches a Pokémon.png|thumb|250px|Ash after catching a Pokémon]]<br /> * Ash has captured each [[generation]]'s {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]]: {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita}}, {{AP|Treecko}} and {{AP|Turtwig}}.<br /> * Ash has also captured every {{type2|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] whose English names begins with a 'C' and whose Japanese names begins with a 'ヒ' ''hi'': {{AP|Charmander}} (''Hitokage''), {{AP|Cyndaquil}} (''Hinoarashi''), and {{AP|Chimchar}} (''Hikozaru'').<br /> *Ash has captured, befriended, used, or otherwise had under his command at least one of every type of Pokémon except for {{type2|Dark}} and {{type2|Steel}}.<br /> * In both the [[Timeline of events in the anime#Kanto|Kanto]] and [[Timeline of events in the anime#Johto|Johto]] story arcs, Ash managed to capture all three of the starter Pokémon for both regions. This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]]. Of these four, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.<br /> * He always catches a local bird-like Pokémon of the region - {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}} in Kanto, {{AP|Noctowl}} in Johto, {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} in Hoenn, and {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}} in Sinnoh. Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When [[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]] airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding [[Reshiram]] and [[Zekrom]].<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean &quot;wisdom&quot; or &quot;reason&quot; (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, &quot;[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]].&quot; <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> ===Character===<br /> [[Image:Anime Ash.png|200px|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]<br /> Ash's main goal in life, as described in [[EP001|the first episode]], is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon master|Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash and amateurish [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the cheeky {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal, however, and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe he formed a strong bond of friendship with Pikachu. This would set his course for the future.<br /> [[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]<br /> However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. His [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] was {{pkmn2|caught}} by luck, he knew absolutely nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was hesitant to admit it whenever he was wrong. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[badge]]s were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the [[Gym Leader]]s; of his first five gym battles, only his victory over [[Lt. Surge]] was an actual victory. Every time he thought he was doing well, he would somehow cross paths with his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He always reminded Ash that he was always a step or seven behind, with Gary catching around forty-five Pokémon by the time Ash had only caught his {{AP|seventh|Kingler}}. This hampered matters further when, owing to his inexperience, his {{AP|Charizard}}, his most powerful Pokémon, refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.<br /> <br /> Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight badges he went on to compete in the [[Indigo League]], advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary. After recovering from his defeat, he continued on to improve his skills; take on new challenges; and compete in more [[Pokémon League]] competitions - triumphing in the [[Orange League]] and the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ashag.png|200px|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]<br /> Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, particularly in regards to his skill at [[Pokémon training]], but his earnestness, rashness, and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to {{ashfr|his friends}}, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great Trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them. For example, when he received a banner filled with prints from his Pokémon in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', he knew which Pokémon placed specific prints, showing his close bond with them. He also learns where their hidden abilities lie, as well as resorting to unorthodox strategies when fighting particularly challenging opponents. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. In another instance, his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] by causing the field to overheat before mounting a close-quarters attack while Blastoise was blinded by the steam. He also prefers to train a Pokémon to be the best it can without forcing it to [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. He is happy when his Pokémon evolve but lets them choose whether or not they want to evolve instead of forcing them.<br /> [[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|250px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]<br /> Early on, Ash originally trained not to further himself but instead to catch more Pokémon than Gary. He later slowed his pace which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Johto]] League [[Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. His maturity has also increased in his dealings with Pokémon. This is shown when [[Ash's Primeape|a Mankey]] stole his {{AP|hat}} in ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', he screamed and yelled at it, even climbing trees just to get his hat back, but when [[Dawn's Ambipom|an Aipom]] did the same in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', he stated merely that he would feel strange without a hat. When Aipom stole his hat again in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', however, while it was under his ownership, he chased after it in the same manner as before.<br /> <br /> In most episodes of the anime, especially those during the Johto League saga, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better Trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his {{AP|friends}}, particularly the maternal skills of Brock. The honor of &quot;best friend&quot; is usually reserved for Pikachu but Ash has come to see his closest human friends in the same light over time; using the term for {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.<br /> <br /> He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon world]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time.<br /> [[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|200px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> Ash has gained a close connection with many [[legendary Pokémon]], including {{an|Mewtwo}}, {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, [[Lake guardians (anime)#Azelf|Azelf]], {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}}, {{an|Giratina}} and {{an|Arceus}}. In the English dub of the [[M02|second movie]], he was revealed to be &quot;The Chosen One&quot; - the one who would bring balance back to the world when it was disrupted. Although viewed as a normal human, Ash does have some special abilities, as he is said to have the same [[aura]] as [[Sir Aaron]], a legendary hero, and is theoretically able to manipulate it in much the same way. However, he has not received any training in this field, opting to continue his Pokémon journey instead. He has also been likened to an ancient [[aura]] guardian in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', who also had a partner {{p|Pikachu}}. Later, in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts 1]]'' and ''[[DP072|2]]'', Ash uses aura again to locate a lost {{p|Riolu}} and read Riolu's mind as well.<br /> <br /> He has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, though he has stated that the contest he got it for was the only one he intends on entering. He also has one for the Hoenn region as it was required to watch one of the contests held there. Ash carries half of a broken [[Poké Ball]] with him everywhere, while Gary has the other half, as a symbol of their ongoing, but now friendly, rivalry; [[Misty's special lure]], which she sent to him as a gift; and half of a ribbon he received in a contest against May before she left the group to compete in Johto. Ash also participated in the [[Wallace Cup]] on the suggestion of [[Wallace]] but he lost in the third round.<br /> <br /> ===Family===<br /> [[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]<br /> Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.<br /> <br /> His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer who began his journey in Pallet Town, but it is unclear whether he is still living. An interview with the series' storyboarder confirmed Ash's father is a Trainer on his own journey. According to the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced in the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.<br /> <br /> Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters, with the exception of {{an|Dawn}} and possibly {{Tracey}}, whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives.<br /> &lt;br clear=&quot;left&quot;&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> As a Trainer, Ash has captured and befriended a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. He seems to battle best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care.

Ash's journey in The Electric Tale of Pikachu follows roughly the same plot as in the anime: first traveling the [[Kanto]] region to participate in the [[Pokémon League]], before embarking on a journey around the [[Orange Archipelago]].<br /> <br /> While there are many similarities between the anime and manga versions of Ash, there are several differences as well. For example, while the anime version of Ash is indifferent to love, romance, or members of the opposite gender (or arguably, the same), the manga version of Ash has a huge crush on Gary's sister, [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]. He is also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree. <br /> <br /> Ash's appearance is very different in the manga, too. Ash wears a red jacket much like Red. He also wears a very different hat throughout the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu volume 1|first volume]]. However, in the sixth chapter, ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That Is the Question!]]'' he wears a hat that resembles the hat he wears in the Pokémon anime. He appears with [[Ash's Pikachu|his Pikachu]] on his shoulder.<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=300px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:025.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Pikachu}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:022.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Fearow}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:017.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Pidgeot|Pidgeotto]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:010.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:011.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:012.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Butterfree|Caterpie &amp;rarr; Metapod &amp;rarr; Butterfree]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center colspan=3 | [[Image:004.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:005.png]] &amp;rarr; [[Image:006.png]]&lt;br&gt;[[Ash's Charizard|Charmander &amp;rarr; Charmeleon &amp;rarr; Charizard]]<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:001.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Bulbasaur}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:007.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Squirtle}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:043.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Oddish}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:015.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Beedrill}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:099.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Kingler}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:089.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Muk}}<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:128.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Tauros}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:131.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Lapras}}<br /> | align=center | [[Image:143.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{AP|Snorlax}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> =====Traded away=====<br /> {|border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; width=150px cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> |-<br /> | align=center | [[Image:056.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Mankey}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> | align=center | [[Image:079.png]]&lt;br&gt;{{p|Slowpoke}} ({{pkmn2|giant}})<br /> |}<br /> <br /> * '''Mankey''': Given away for a map, which turned out to be fake.<br /> * '''Giant Slowpoke''': Given away to {{Gary}} for [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]]'s photo.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> This listing is of cards mentioning or featuring Ash or his Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]].<br /> <br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #999; border-collapse: collapse; background: white;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #{{tcg Lightning color}};&quot; <br /> !Name<br /> !Type<br /> !Level<br /> !Rarity<br /> !Set<br /> !Set no.<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|7th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Torkoal|9}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|7th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 009/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Grovyle|1}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 001/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Phanpy|4}} || {{e|Fighting}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 004/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|8th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Swellow|7}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 007/020<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|9th Movie Half Deck|Ash's Aipom|10}} || {{e|Colorless}} || - || - || {{TCG|9th Movie Half Deck}} (no English release) || 010/019<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|ADV-P Promo|Ash's Treecko|36}} || {{e|Grass}} || - || - || {{TCG|ADV-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 036/ADV-P<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Pikachu M|12}} || {{e|Lightning}} || 45 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 012/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Staraptor M|18}} || {{e|Colorless}} || 41 || - || {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} (no English release) || 018/022<br /> |-<br /> | {{TCG ID|DPt-P Promo|Pikachu M LV.X|43}} || {{e|Lightning}} || ''X'' || - || {{TCG|DPt-P Promotional cards}} (no English release) || 043/DPt-P<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:Ash catches a Pokémon.png|thumb|250px|Ash after catching a Pokémon]]<br /> * Ash has captured each [[generation]]'s {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]]: {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita}}, {{AP|Treecko}} and {{AP|Turtwig}}.<br /> * Ash has also captured every {{type2|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] whose English names begins with a 'C' and whose Japanese names begins with a 'ヒ' ''hi'': {{AP|Charmander}} (''Hitokage''), {{AP|Cyndaquil}} (''Hinoarashi''), and {{AP|Chimchar}} (''Hikozaru'').<br /> *Ash has captured, befriended, used, or otherwise had under his command at least one of every type of Pokémon except for {{type2|Dark}} and {{type2|Steel}}.<br /> * In both the [[Timeline of events in the anime#Kanto|Kanto]] and [[Timeline of events in the anime#Johto|Johto]] story arcs, Ash managed to capture all three of the starter Pokémon for both regions. This trend was broken in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, where he only captured {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}; instead the [[May's Blaziken|other]] [[Brock's Marshtomp|two]] were caught by {{an|May}} and [[Brock]].<br /> * The last Pokémon that Ash has captured in every [[region]] are a part of {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a two-stage evolutionary line|one-evolution families}}, namely {{AP|Phanpy}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} in [[Kanto]].

Though not all of these Pokémon were captured in their first form, they all evolved into their final forms under Ash's care; the exception being Noctowl, who cannot evolve.<br /> * When [[M13|Ruler of Illusions: Zoroark]] airs, Ash will have encountered every legendary Pokémon at least once, excluding [[Reshiram]] and [[Zekrom]].<br /> * All of Ash's primate-based Pokémon have been under the control of someone other than Ash at some point ({{AP|Primeape}} is currently under Anthony's command, {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} was under Dawn's ownership and is currently being trained in [[Vermilion City]], and his {{AP|Infernape}} was formerly owned by Paul).<br /> **All three of these primate-based Pokémon were also shown evolving on-screen, and none of them evolved in the care of their original Trainer (Primeape evolved in the wild just prior to Ash capturing it, Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care, and Infernape (also as a {{AP|Monferno}}) evolved under Ash's ownership).<br /> * Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.<br /> * Three members of Ash's Sinnoh party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}. Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].<br /> * Ash has stopped capturing more than his limit of six pokémon.<br /> * Ash has two fully-evolved {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]] ({{AP|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Torterra}}) and two fully-evolved {{type2|Fire}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Infernape}}), however, neither of his {{type2|Water}} starter Pokémon ({{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Totodile}}) have evolved at all, or even indicated their desire to.<br /> * Ash has several Pokémon in common with his current rivals; Paul and Barry. He and Paul both own a {{p|Torterra}} and have owned a {{p|Gliscor}} as well as both training the same {{AP|Chimchar}} at some point. Like Ash, Barry owns a {{p|Staraptor}} and a {{p|Heracross}}. Other rivals of Ash's have had alike Pokémon; Gary has also owned a {{p|Squirtle}} and a {{p|Krabby}}, Morrison has a {{p|Gligar}}, and Tyson has a {{p|Sceptile}} and {{p|Donphan}}. Both had them on their league teams before Ash would later obtain them himself.<br /> * All of Ash's {{t|Flying}}-types that he still owns, except for Charizard, have two immunities. Gliscor is immune to {{t|Electric}}- and {{t|Ground}}-types. Noctowl, Swellow, and Staraptor are all immune to {{t|Ghost}}- and Ground-types.<br /> * Ash has traded away three Pokémon: {{AP|Butterfree}}, {{AP|Raticate}}, and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. Of these three, Butterfree was the only one Ash got back, and also the only one that is not a {{type2|Normal}}.<br /> <br /> ===Challenges/Gym related===<br /> * In each region (except for the Orange Islands), Ash always loses against at least one of the [[Gym Leader]]s before challenging them to a rematch.<br /> * In the [[original series]], Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case. <br /> * Ash has so far battled five [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}}, [[Agatha]], {{EF|Flint}} and [[Bertha]]. He has lost to all five without defeating a single Pokémon of theirs.<br /> ** In all of these battles, except Bertha, Ash used Pikachu in each one. <br /> * The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] was the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, ends in [[DP179]], where Ash finally won the Beacon Badge. The gap was a total of 52 episodes. The shortest amount of time between badges was the [[EP006|one-episode]] gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Miscellaneous===<br /> [[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]<br /> * The date of Ash's birth, according to [[Takeshi Shudo]]'s anime novelizations, is 10 years, 10 months, and 10 days ''exactly'' prior to the day he began his Pokémon journey. Being that the same novelization declares that Pokémon Trainers obtain their first Pokémon in April of the year following their 10th birthday, and the anime itself began broadcast on the first of that month in 1997 in Japan, Ash's birthday, if April 1 was the first day of his journey, would be May 22.<br /> * Ash has crossdressed once in each anime series: The first time he did this was in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'', in the [[original series]]. He crossdressed a second time in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]'', in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' marked the third time he crossdressed, in the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.<br /> ** In addition to dressing as a girl, Ash has dressed up as fruit on at least two occasions. The first time, he dressed as an apple in ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!]]'' while the second he dressed as an {{wp|eggplant}} in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. On both occasions he was used to lure a large Pokémon.<br /> * Several of the variety of {{wp|ash tree}}s, from which his name could be derived, are related to Kanto in some way: not only are there trees known as the &quot;red ash&quot;, &quot;green ash&quot;, and &quot;blue ash&quot;, for the first three games, but also the &quot;indigo ash&quot;, for the [[Indigo Plateau]].<br /> * [[Arnold]] and [[Travis]] are both [[doppelgänger]]s of Ash. His first meeting with both of [[Arnold's mother|their]] [[Luana|mothers]] was being mistaken for them and embraced in a hug as the boys were away from home at the time.<br /> * When [[Veronica Taylor]] was interviewed in the documentary &quot;Adventures in Voice Acting&quot;, she stated that during her audition for the role of Ash, he was known as Casey at the time.<br /> <br /> ==Names==<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px solid #88a; border-collapse: collapse;&quot; cellspacing=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot;<br /> |- style=&quot;background: #ccf;&quot;<br /> !

In Japanese, he is voiced by [[Daisuke Sakaguchi]], and in English, he is voiced by [[Tom Wayland]].<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> [[File:Gible Ash head.png|thumb|left|250px|Gible biting on Ash's head]]<br /> Ash first met Gible in ''[[DP156|A Meteoric Rise to Excellence!]]''. [[Wilma]] explained that Gible was trying his best to learn the move {{m|Draco Meteor}}. But for some reason, the move always failed; instead of exploding in the sky, it always fell to the ground. Ash wanted to help the wild Gible learn Draco Meteor and achieve his dreams. It successfully used the move against [[Team Rocket]], but failed again in its next attempt. By the end of the episode, Gible decided to start following Ash. Currently, Gible, with Ash's help, is still trying to master using the move. Most of the time, the move fails and, in a recurring gag, accidentally hits {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, although it has been used [[DP164|on one occasion]] to find Piplup once the latter went missing, and on [[DP173|another occasion]] to differentiate it from another Piplup, which turned out to be a {{p|Ditto}}. Since the addition of {{TP|Dawn|Togekiss}} to {{an|Dawn}}'s party, it became a recurrent gag that Togekiss would defend Piplup from Gible's slowly improving, but still failing, Draco Meteor and gracefully shoot it back to Gible and Ash.<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP157|Gotta Get a Gible!]]'', Ash met with Gible again. {{an|Barry}} also was interested in catching him. However, Gible decided to let Ash capture him after he saw what Ash would do to protect him. After that, Barry demanded a battle with Ash and his new Gible and was able to defeat it with {{TP|Barry|Empoleon}}.<br /> <br /> Like {{AP|Torterra}} during its time as a {{p|Turtwig}}, Gible seems to enjoy latching onto Ash's head as well as other peoples' heads (at first, like Turtwig, it used to chomp onto Ash's and other people's heads but after a little while it seemed to just latch onto people's heads without actually hurting them). Later on, it showed its habit also included rocks and tree trunks, among other objects. Gible also has the ability to devour almost any kind of metals, seen when Gible devoured two of Team Rocket's giant robots, and half of a city park. Despite appearing to be quite gutsy, it is not very bright and is slow to understand simple requests or orders; on one occasion, it chewed away a section of rock despite it falling into a creek as a result, and still chewed at the rock underwater not seeming to realize it could drown and had to be saved by {{AP|Buizel}}.<br /> <br /> It will be used in [[DP185]], against [[Conway]]'s [[Dusknoir]], [[Lickilicky]] and [[Shuckle]]. <br /> <br /> ==Moves used==<br /> {{anmu/h|Dragon|Ground|row=5|align=center|move={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 5}}|0|1=Draco Meteor|2=Dragon Pulse|3=Dig|4=Rock Smash}}|pic=Gible {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 5}}|0|1=Draco Meteor|2=Dragon Pulse|3=Dig|4=Rock Smash}}.png}}<br /> {{anmu|Ground|Dig|DP156|A Meteoric Rise to Excellence!}}<br /> {{anmu|Dragon|Draco Meteor|DP156|A Meteoric Rise to Excellence!|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|Dragon|Dragon Pulse|DP156|A Meteoric Rise to Excellence!}}<br /> {{anmu|Fighting|Rock Smash|DP157|Gotta Get a Gible!}}<br /> {{anmu/f|ground|c=a|x=yes}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Gible is the very first {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon that Ash (or any main character) has owned. It is also Ash's first Pokémon that can evolve into a [[pseudo-legendary]] Pokémon (if his unofficial {{AP|Larvitar}} isn't counted).<br /> * Gible is the second Pokémon of Ash's to destroy {{an|Barry|a friend}}'s [[Bicycle|bike]]. The first was {{AP|his Pikachu|Pikachu}}, which destroyed {{an|Misty}}'s, {{an|May}}'s, ''and'' {{an|Dawn}}'s bikes, but unlike Pikachu, who fried the bikes by accident, Gible ate Barry's bike on purpose.<br /> * Gible is the third (or 32nd, if one counts all 30 of Ash's Tauros) of Ash's Pokémon to have its gender confirmed before being obtained by Ash, due to the notch on its fin. The first two were {{AP|Tauros}} and {{AP|Buizel}}.<br /> ** Coincidentally, all three of them are male.<br /> * Gible is the second Pokémon of Ash's to know an [[HM]] move, the first being {{AP|Grotle}} with {{m|Rock Climb}}. <br /> ** Coincidentally, both attacks start with &quot;Rock&quot; in their name, but yet neither of them is a {{type2|Rock}} move.<br /> * Gible is Ash's second Ground-type Pokémon with a second type to its species. The first was [[Ash's Gliscor]]. Gible also replaces Gliscor in the sixth slot of Ash's [[party]]. Also, they both have a double weakness to the {{type|Ice}}.<br /> * Gible can be seen as a parallel to [[Ash's Glalie|Ash's Snorunt]]. Both were caught late in Ash's travels of the region they were caught in. Additionally, both Snorunt and Gible had difficulty mastering one of their moves ({{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Draco Meteor}}, respectively), both were caught before Ash's final gym battle of the region.<br /> * Gible and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]] are the only Pokémon Ash caught that was featured in more then one episode before it was caught.<br /> <br /> ==Related articles==<br /> {{Animespecies|Gible}}<br /> <br /> {{Ash's Pokémon|dragon|ground}}&lt;br&gt;<br /> {{Project Anime notice|no}}<br /> [[Category:Ash's Pokémon|Gible]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Ashs Kaumalat]]<br /> [[fr:Griknot de Sacha]]<br /> [[ja:サトシのフカマル]]<br /> [[pl:Gible Asha]]<br /> [[pt:Gible de Ash]]</div>

Its Japanese voice actor is 小西克幸 ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'' and its English voice actor is [[Pete Zarustica]]. As a Snorunt, its voice actress is Japanese was 伊東みやこ ''[[Miyako Itō]]'' and its English voice actress was [[Kayzie Rogers]].<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> [[File:Ash Snorunt.png|200px|As a {{p|Snorunt}}|thumb|left]]<br /> Glalie made its first appearance as a {{p|Snorunt}} in ''[[AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!]]'' According to [[Nurse Joy]], it goes into a [[Pokémon Center]] every time someone goes there. Snorunt then stole Ash's badge case, causing him to chase after it into a blizzard. Seeing that Ash was in danger after knocking his back on a rock, Snorunt built an igloo around him and gave him an apple to eat. Later, Ash saved Snorunt from [[Team Rocket]], and after agreeing to battle it, Ash captured Snorunt with the help of {{AP|Pikachu}}.<br /> <br /> As a Snorunt it would occasionally use {{m|Icy Wind}} on others. Ash had also used Snorunt in the Gym battle against [[Juan]]. But due to its inexperience, it was defeated easily. Aside from this, it was not used much and instead extensively trained with Ash.<br /> <br /> It had problems using {{m|Ice Beam}}, and could not aim properly. As a result of extensive training as well as with the help of {{ho|Robert}}, Snorunt evolved into Glalie in ''[[AG123|Rhapsody In Drew]]'' while {{an|May}} was participating in the [[Grand Festival]]. Robert mentioned that since it has evolved, Glalie would not have any problems using Ice Beam.<br /> <br /> Ash used Glalie in the [[Ever Grande Conference]] where it proved to be a powerhouse in battles. It became Ash's trump card in many battles in the league, with the most notable being the battle with [[Morrison's Metang]], where it won, despite being at a type disadvantage. However, Ash left Glalie after the Hoenn League at [[Professor Oak]]'s lab.<br /> <br /> It will appear in [[DP182]] alongside Ash's other Pokemon. <br /> <br /> ==Moves used==<br /> {{Anmu/h|ice|row=5|align=center|move={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=Ice Beam|2=Headbutt}}|pic={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=Glalie ice beam.png|2=AG128.png}}}}<br /> {{anmu|ice|Icy Wind|AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Double Team|AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Headbutt|AG108|Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snorunt!}}<br /> {{anmu|ice|Ice Beam|AG114|Date Expectations}}<br /> {{anmu/f|ice|no|c=a}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Glalie was the only one of Ash's Hoenn Pokémon that he did not use in the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} at one time or another.<br /> * Glalie is Ash's second {{type2|Ice}} Pokémon.

However, Glalie is Ash's first pure {{type2|Ice}} Pokémon, as Lapras was also part {{type2|Water}}.<br /> ** Ash's Lapras was released before Glalie was captured, making it the only Ice-type Pokémon Ash owns at this time.<br /> * Glalie was the only member of Ash's Hoenn team that did not appear in a [[Pokémon movie]].<br /> * Glalie was the second one of Ash's Pokémon to have learned all of its moves in the evolution stage that he caught it in and evolved later, the other one being {{AP|Pidgeot}}.<br /> * As a Snorunt, it was Ash's only Pokémon to have a [[branched evolution]]. But at the time of its capture, Snorunt only had one evolution.<br /> * In the English dub of ''[[AG114|Date Expectations!]]'', {{an|Brock}} states that Snorunt &quot;still needs to work on '''his''' Ice Beam&quot;, possibly implying that Snorunt is male.

Its voice actor in Japanese is 小西克幸 ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'', and its English voice actors are [[Maddie Blaustein]] ([[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]] dub) and [[Bill Rogers]] ({{PUSA}} dub)<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> Ash caught Corphish in the episode ''[[AG023|Gone Corphishin'!]]''. Ash and his friends were camping on a beach, and Corphish was attacking them from underneath the sand. Eventually its identity was revealed and Ash battled it and caught it.<br /> <br /> Corphish has a rather quirky personality. It tends to get jealous of Ash's other Pokémon, and it enjoys being the center of attention. In ''[[AG067|Go Go Ludicolo!]]'', it was worried that Ash's newly evolved {{AP|Grovyle}} would get more attention from Ash because of its higher level. Like its trainer, it is headstrong and stubborn. One example was in ''[[AG046|Candid Camerupt!]]'', where Max uses it to battle Vivi, but does not obey Max's commands of taking it easy on Vivi.<br /> <br /> In many later matches, especially in the [[Ever Grande Conference]], Corphish proved to be a powerful battler. Corphish was also the main comic relief of Ash's team when most of his Pokémon were evolved and more serious. Ash also used Corphish along with {{AP|Swellow}} for the battle against {{FB|Dome Ace|Tucker}}. He also used it against {{FB|Salon Maiden|Anabel}}.<br /> <br /> It is revealed in ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]'' that Corphish likes to dance along to Brock's song. Corphish later dances with Brock in ''[[AG184|Strategy Tomorrow, Comedy Tonight]]''.<br /> <br /> Ash left Corphish at [[Professor Oak]]'s lab when he left for [[Sinnoh]].<br /> <br /> It will appear in [[DP182]] alongside Ash's other Pokemon. <br /> <br /> ==Moves used== <br /> {{anmu/h|water|row=6|align=center|move={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 4}}|0|1=BubbleBeam|2=Harden|3=Crabhammer}}|pic={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 4}}|0|1=Corphish bubblebeam.png|2=Corphish harden.png|3=Corphish Crabhammer.jpg}}}}<br /> {{anmu|water|Crabhammer|AG023|Gone Corphishin'|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|ground|Dig|AG023|Gone Corphishin'}}<br /> {{anmu|water|BubbleBeam|AG023|Gone Corphishin'|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|ViceGrip|AG028|Seeing is Believing!|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Harden|AG031|Just One of the Geysers|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu/f|water|c=a}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> *Corphish is the second {{wp|crustacean}}-based Pokémon that Ash owned.

His Japanese voice actress is 西村ちなみ ''[[Chinami Nishimura]]'' and his English voice actor is [[Kayzie Rogers]].<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> Totodile first appeared in ''[[EP151|The Totodile Duel]]'' where both {{Ash}} and [[Misty]] were trying to {{pkmn2|caught|capture}} him. As Totodile jumped into the bushes, they both threw their {{DL|Poké Ball|Lure Ball}}s at him. They then found out that one of the Lure Balls had captured him. They decided to have a {{pkmn|battle}} to decide who could keep him. Ash eventually won the battle and kept Totodile. <br /> <br /> Totodile is a highly energetic Pokémon. He is always happy and shows it by dancing. Totodile is also fairly romantic, as he was shown to have crushes on an {{p|Azumarill}} and a {{p|Quagsire}} in ''[[EP153|Love, Totodile Style!]]''. <br /> <br /> Totodile was used fairly often during Ash's travels in [[Johto]] and also in the [[Silver Conference]]. He wasn't used in many gym battles, but he was one of the Pokémon used by {{Ash}} during the [[Whirl Cup]]. Ash left Totodile at [[Professor Oak's laboratory]], along with his other Johto Pokémon, when he departed for the [[Hoenn]] region. <br /> <br /> It will appear in [[DP182]] alongside Ash's other Pokemon. <br /> ==Moves used==<br /> {{anmu/h|Water|row=8|align=center|move=Bite|pic=Harrison's Sneasel.PNG}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Scratch|EP151|The Totodile Duel}}<br /> {{anmu|dark|Bite|EP151|The Totodile Duel}}<br /> {{anmu|water|Water Gun|EP151|The Totodile Duel}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Headbutt|EP213|A Corsola Caper!}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Skull Bash|EP216|Dueling Heroes|x=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Scary Face|EP248|One Trick Phony!}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Leer|EP271|Playing with Fire!}}<br /> {{anmu/f|water|c=a|yes|x=yes}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Totodile is Ash's only Pokémon not to be kept inside a regular [[Poké Ball]] but rather inside a [[Lure Ball|special ball]]. Although all of [[Ash's Tauros]] were captured with [[Safari Ball]]s, they stay inside regular Poké Balls.<br /> * He is the second Pokémon that Ash and [[Misty]] battled over. The first was {{TP|Misty|Togepi|Togetic}}.<br /> ** Interestingly, Misty used the aforementioned Togepi in the battle for Totodile.<br /> * [[Misty's Corsola]] and Ash's Totodile were both captured in Lure Balls, which they are most always shown to come out of. This would later become standard in the games with the advent of [[Generation III]].<br /> <br /> ==Related articles==<br /> {{Animespecies|Totodile}}<br /> <br /> {{Ash's Pokémon|water}}&lt;br&gt;<br /> {{Project Anime notice|no}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Ash's Pokémon|Totodile]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Ashs Karnimani]]<br /> [[fr:Kaiminus de Sacha]]<br /> [[ja:サトシのワニノコ]]<br /> [[pl:Totodile Asha]]<br /> [[pt:Totodile de Ash]]</div>

Its Japanese voice actor is ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]''. Its English voice actors are [[Michael Haigney]] ([[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]] and {{PUSA}} with stock footage), and [[Eric Stuart]] ''([[AG088|The Garden of Eatin']]'', ''[[SS004|Showndown in the Oak Corral]]'' and ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'').<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> <br /> ===Orange Archipelago===<br /> During his travels in the Orange Islands in ''[[EP094|Snack Attack]]'', Ash discovered a grapefruit orchard that was under attack by a {{p|Snorlax}} that was eating everything in sight, and was consuming many of the nearby islands vegetation within days. Ash, [[Misty]], {{Tracey}}, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{an|Jigglypuff}} eventually managed to stop the Snorlax. This gave Ash the perfect opportunity to catch it. <br /> <br /> Ash kept the Snorlax on his team for the remainder of his time in the Orange Islands, but could not use it in the finals due to the fact that it would not wake up and needed to be switched with one of Ash's thirty {{AP|Tauros}}. After the tournament was won, Ash then decided to keep his Snorlax at Professor Oak's permanently because he could no longer feed it and only called upon its power in major battles.<br /> <br /> ===Johto===<br /> Since then, Snorlax has become one of the senior members of Ash's team, along with {{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} and has provided much needed comic relief in many situations. Ash called upon it for the [[Sumo Conference]] in ''[[EP194|Ring Masters]]'', winning the subsequent fight as a result, and later used it to defeat [[Clair]]'s {{p|Kingdra}} in their rematch. He also used Snorlax during the [[Johto League]] competition, first against [[Gary Oak]] where it quickly defeated Gary's {{p|Nidoqueen}} and {{TP|Gary|Arcanine}}, but lost to {{p|Scizor}}. Snorlax then fought during Ash's following match against {{jo|Harrison}}, defeating his {{p|Steelix}} and {{p|Hypno}}, though in the end it fell to his {{p|Houndoom}}.<br /> <br /> ===Kanto Battle Frontier===<br /> When Ash returned from Hoenn, with {{an|May}} and [[Max]], Snorlax befriended [[May's Munchlax]]. Most recently, Snorlax helped Ash earn the Guts Symbol from {{FB|Arena Tycoon|Greta}} in ''[[AG149|Wheel of Frontier]]'' by defeating her {{p|Hariyama}} with an {{m|Ice Punch}} and literally flattening her {{p|Medicham}} with {{m|Body Slam}}.<br /> <br /> It will appear in [[DP182]] alongside Ash's other Pokemon. <br /> <br /> ==Moves used==<br /> {{anmu/h|normal|row=10|align=center|move={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=Ice Punch|2=Hyper Beam}}|pic={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=AG149 107.jpeg|2=Ash Snorlax Hyper Beam.png}}}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Body Slam|EP094|Snack Attack|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Headbutt|EP094|Snack Attack|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Mega Kick|EP094|Snack Attack}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Mega Punch|EP104|Bound For Trouble}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Hyper Beam|EP107|Pokémon Food Fight!|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|ice|Ice Punch|EP254|Better Eight Than Never|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Tackle|AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Protect|AG149|Wheel of Frontier|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|psychic|Rest|AG149|Wheel of Frontier|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu/f|normal|yes|c=a}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * In the ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]'', while Ash was trying to stop Snorlax from eating the grapefruits, he was nearly eaten by it.<br /> * Snorlax is the second of Ash's Pokémon to have a [[baby Pokémon|baby form]] introduced at a later generation, the first being {{AP|Pikachu}}.<br /> * Some fans speculate that Snorlax knows {{m|Harden}} rather than {{m|Protect}}. When Ash commanded Snorlax to use Protect in ''[[AG149|Wheel of Frontier]]'', Snorlax braced itself and glistened in a white light, similar to other Pokémon who have used the move. Also, {{FB|Arena Tycoon|Greta}}'s {{p|Hariyama}} was able to hit Snorlax with Focus Punch and knock it over, which it couldn't have done if it was using Protect.<br /> **However, there is disagreement on this issue as it is possible it was simply a variation of move appearance as happens in the anime fairly often.<br /> *In ''[[EP107|Pokémon Food Fight]]'', Misty says, &quot;That is if you can ever get ''him'' to wake up&quot;, but only in the dub. This could confirm Snorlax to be a male.<br /> <br /> ==Related articles==<br /> {{Animespecies|Snorlax}}<br /> {{-}}<br /> {{Ash's Pokémon|normal}}&lt;br&gt;<br /> {{Project Anime notice|no}}<br /> [[Category:Ash's Pokémon|Snorlax]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Ashs Relaxo]]<br /> [[fr:Ronflex de Sacha]]<br /> [[ja:サトシのカビゴン]]<br /> [[pl:Snorlax Asha]]<br /> [[pt:Snorlax de Ash]]</div>

Her voice actress in both Japanese and English is ''[[Mika Kanai]]''.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> [[Image:ChikoritaRescue.jpg|thumb|left|As a Chikorita]]<br /> Bayleef was introduced in ''[[EP126|The Chikorita Rescue]]'' as a {{p|Chikorita}}. Chikorita was especially stubborn, going so far as to fight against [[Ash's Charizard]] despite obvious overwhelming odds; she was injured in the process. [[Team Rocket]] tried to convince the stubborn Pokémon to join them, but Ash eventually won her confidence.<br /> <br /> Chikorita later was used in ''[[EP127|Once In a Blue Moon]]'' to try getting the [[GS Ball]] back. However, Chikorita only wanted to be affectionate, so when Ash told Chikorita not to, Chikorita got angry and hit Ash with its leaf.<br /> <br /> Chikorita developed what seemed to be a crush on Ash, constantly fighting for his attention and trying to get his approval. In Gym Battles, she lost to [[Falkner]]'s {{p|Hoothoot}} and defeated [[Bugsy]]'s {{p|Spinarak}}.<br /> <br /> In ''[[EP199|Current Events]]'', Chikorita evolved into Bayleef to protect Ash from Team Rocket. However, it took a while for the amorous Pokémon to realize that she had grown so much - she continued to act as though she was still small enough to leap into Ash's arms for quite some time.<br /> <br /> In Ash's Gym Battle against [[Chuck]], Bayleef defeated his Poliwrath and {{p|Machoke}}. At the Silver Conference she lost to [[Gary's Blastoise]] despite a type advantage, but made up for it the next day by defeating {{jo|Harrison}}'s {{p|Houndoom}}, against whom she had a type disadvantage. Ash left Bayleef with Professor Oak when he left for Hoenn.<br /> <br /> Bayleef's personality is stubborn, sometimes violent, and passionate. She easily gets jealous of the attention Ash's other Pokémon receive - especially {{AP|Pikachu}}. Some of her more extreme personality traits seemed to have mellowed with evolution, however.<br /> <br /> It will appear in [[DP182]] alongside Ash's other [[Pokemon]].<br /> <br /> ==Moves used==<br /> {{anmu/h|Grass|row=7|align=center|move=Vine Whip|pic=Bayleef Vine Whip.png}}<br /> {{anmu|grass|Razor Leaf|EP126|The Chikorita Rescue|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|grass|Vine Whip|EP126|The Chikorita Rescue|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Tackle|EP136|Chikorita's Big Upset}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Sweet Scent|EP144|Gettin' the Bugs Out}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Body Slam|EP200|Turning Over a New Bayleef|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Headbutt|EP271|Playing with Fire!}}<br /> {{anmu/f|grass|no}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Chikorita was the only Pokémon that Ash owned that evolved during the Johto saga. Despite this, he also had another evolved Pokémon: {{AP|Noctowl}}.<br /> * Aside from {{AP|Pikachu}}, Bayleef is the only Pokémon Ash currently owns that is in its middle evolution.<br /> * Chikorita took as many episodes to evolve as another Pokémon that had a crush on Ash: {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}}. They were both {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} before their evolution as well, and their Japanese names are both very similar to their English names. Both are also confirmed to be female, and both Pokémon also use their Japanese voices in the dub.<br /> * Bayleef is the only one of Ash's current Pokémon to be confirmed as a female. Aipom is also a female, but was traded to {{an|Dawn}} and then left under [[O]]'s care for training.<br /> * Bayleef is the 25th Pokémon that Ash obtained, including evolutions and not counting {{TP|Sabrina|Haunter}} as it was not officially his.<br /> * Bayleef was the second starter Pokémon caught by Ash to evolve, the first being Charizard.<br /> * Bayleef is the only starter Pokémon owned by Ash to have [[Evolution|evolved]] once.

Its Japanese voice actor is ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'' and its English voice actor is [[Marc Thompson]]. As a Gligar, it was voiced by ''Katsuyuki Konishi'' in both Japanese and English.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> Ash caught Gliscor as a Gligar in ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]'' It, along with many other {{p|Gligar}} and a {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}} had become trapped in a city after being blown there by a violent windstorm. Gliscor's attempts at using sonar to navigate out of the city were blocked by the tall buildings, and only served to attract more Gligar and the Pokémon soon formed a pack.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ash's Gligar.png|thumb|left|210px|As a Gligar, with Ash]]<br /> The pack survived by picking fruit from trees, and stealing food from humans. After Ash and his friends helped the pack, {{p|Gligar}} decided to travel with Ash, allowing him to capture it.<br /> <br /> Gligar seems to have a habit of sticking out its tongue and winking when appearing. It also has the tendency to crash land on top of Ash due to its inability to glide properly. It would also cry when scolded by Ash as shown in ''[[DP081|Chim - Charred! ]]'' and ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. Not only that, Gligar seems to be a crybaby of sorts, tearing up very often, especially in fear. As a Gligar, it was terribly afraid of heights. Additionally, Gligar seems to be extremely eager to win Ash's attention and approval.<br /> <br /> It evolved into a Gliscor in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]'' in order to save Ash from a fall. It used the {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}} Ash received from {{Gary}} after Gligar had a practice battle with his {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}}. It appears to have kept its personality traits even after evolution, as it still cries when scolded by Ash and also winks and sticks its tongue out.<br /> <br /> Since evolution, Gliscor has been used in more battles. In ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy]]'', Gliscor was used as a sparring partner by {{TP|Paul|Torterra}} to help illustrate how {{AP|Grotle}} could deal with its reduced speed. In ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', Gliscor battled [[Barry]]'s {{p|Roserade}} and the battle ended in a tie, with both Pokémon knocking each other out at the same time. In ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]'', Gliscor learned {{m|Fire Fang}} after being hit by an {{m|Ice Shard}} from {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine|Mamoswine}}, and is revealed to have learned {{m|Screech}} some time off-screen. In ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'' it was used in its first gym battle, against [[Byron]], defeating his {{TP|Byron|Bastiodon}}, earning Ash his {{Badge|Mine}}. In ''[[DP127|Sliding Into Seventh!]]'' it was used in the gym battle against [[Candice]], where it was easily defeated by her {{p|Snover}}. <br /> <br /> In ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'', Gliscor battled [[Paul's Torterra]] in Ash's full battle against [[Paul]]. Although it was able to cause a good amount of damage as well as using its speed to dodge Torterra's attacks, it couldn't escape {{m|Giga Drain}}, as a result being weakened while Torterra's health was restored.

Its Japanese voice actor is ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'' and its English voice actor is [[Marc Thompson]]. As a Gligar, it was voiced by ''Katsuyuki Konishi'' in both Japanese and English.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> Ash caught Gliscor as a Gligar in ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]'' It, along with many other {{p|Gligar}} and a {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}} had become trapped in a city after being blown there by a violent windstorm. Gliscor's attempts at using sonar to navigate out of the city were blocked by the tall buildings, and only served to attract more Gligar and the Pokémon soon formed a pack.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Ash's Gligar.png|thumb|left|210px|As a Gligar, with Ash]]<br /> The pack survived by picking fruit from trees, and stealing food from humans. After Ash and his friends helped the pack, {{p|Gligar}} decided to travel with Ash, allowing him to capture it.<br /> <br /> Gligar seems to have a habit of sticking out its tongue and winking when appearing. It also has the tendency to crash land on top of Ash due to its inability to glide properly. It would also cry when scolded by Ash as shown in ''[[DP081|Chim - Charred! ]]'' and ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. Not only that, Gligar seems to be a crybaby of sorts, tearing up very often, especially in fear. As a Gligar, it was terribly afraid of heights. Additionally, Gligar seems to be extremely eager to win Ash's attention and approval.<br /> <br /> It evolved into a Gliscor in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]'' in order to save Ash from a fall. It used the {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}} Ash received from {{Gary}} after Gligar had a practice battle with his {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}}. It appears to have kept its personality traits even after evolution, as it still cries when scolded by Ash and also winks and sticks its tongue out.<br /> <br /> Since evolution, Gliscor has been used in more battles. In ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy]]'', Gliscor was used as a sparring partner by {{TP|Paul|Torterra}} to help illustrate how {{AP|Grotle}} could deal with its reduced speed. In ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', Gliscor battled [[Barry]]'s {{p|Roserade}} and the battle ended in a tie, with both Pokémon knocking each other out at the same time. In ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]'', Gliscor learned {{m|Fire Fang}} after being hit by an {{m|Ice Shard}} from {{TP|Dawn|Piloswine|Mamoswine}}, and is revealed to have learned {{m|Screech}} some time off-screen. In ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'' it was used in its first gym battle, against [[Byron]], defeating his {{TP|Byron|Bastiodon}}, earning Ash his {{Badge|Mine}}. In ''[[DP127|Sliding Into Seventh!]]'' it was used in the gym battle against [[Candice]], where it was easily defeated by her {{p|Snover}}. <br /> <br /> In ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'', Gliscor battled [[Paul's Torterra]] in Ash's full battle against [[Paul]]. Although it was able to cause a good amount of damage as well as using its speed to dodge Torterra's attacks, it couldn't escape {{m|Giga Drain}}, as a result being weakened while Torterra's health was restored. Ash then decided to recall Gliscor, only to use it again against Torterra later on where it was defeated after being hit with {{m|Frenzy Plant}}.<br /> <br /> In [[DP154]], Gliscor battled against [[Mitsuzō]]'s {{p|Scizor}} where it lost. After training with {{Ash}} it challenged Scizor to a rematch. However even though it used its newly learned move {{m|Giga Impact}} it eventually lost.

(Japanese: '''ポケモンコンテスト！ アケビ大会!!''' ''Pokémon Contest! {{tt|Akebi|Chocovine}} Tournament!!'') is the 114th episode of the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}, and the 580th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on February 12, 2009 and in the United States on July 11, 2009.<br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> ==Synopsis==<br /> The episodes opens with {{an|Dawn}} training with {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} before her next {{pkmn|Contest}}. As Pachirisu uses {{m|Discharge}}, {{Ash}} comments on Pachirisu, saying it's moves have gained a great deal of power thanks to {{AP|Pikachu}}'s advice. Pachirisu gets tired from the training, and Dawn begins to hand out [[Poffin]]s to her Pokémon, when {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} charges at her, sending her flying in to the air, along with the Poffins. {{cat|Dawn's Pokémon|Her Pokémon}} manage to safely catch her, while Mamoswine catches the Poffins in it's mouth and walks off, scratching it's rear before falling asleep. The Pokémon become saddened by the loss of food, but Dawn reassures them she will make more. At that moment, Pachirisu notices there was a Poffin Mamoswine didn't eat, and rushes over to grab it, when a {{p|Gabite}} stomps on the Poffin, infuriating Pachirisu. Suddenly, a young lady walks in, calling to the Gabite, while [[Team Rocket]] watch from atop a building. [[Jessie]] comments she recognizes the girl, and tries to put a name to her. <br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Dawn rushes over and tries to stop Pachirisu, attempting to hold it down, but Pachirisu leaps up, causing Dawn to fall and lands on her head. Pachirisu leaps again, using it's newly learned move: {{m|Super Fang}} on Gabite, but Gabite blocks with it's fin. Brock explains Pachirisu must have just learned Super Fang from losing the Poffin, and Dawn grabs hold of Pachirisu, trying to calm it down. This only makes things worse as Pachirisu uses Discharge on her, causing her to fall to the ground again. The young lady comments that Pachirisu must not have been raised well, and Ash scans Gabite with the [[Pokédex]]. The young lady wonders what's wrong with Pachirisu, and Dawn tells her to look under Gabite's foot. She does, and is horrified that her Gabite has been soiled by the Poffin. Ash explains that the Poffin is Pachirisu's favorite {{pkmn|food}}, and it was aggravated by Gabite for stepping on it. The young lady says she can fix it and hands Pachirisu one of her own Poffins. Pachirisu sniffs it, and quickly refuses it, the young lady offended by Pachirisu's actions. At that moment, the young lady looks to {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and asks if Dawn was in the [[Wallace Cup]]. Dawn explains she [[DP079|won]], and the young lady mockingly says she was sure it was an accident Dawn won, shocking the group. Dawn asks if the young lady was in the Wallace Cup to, and she replies yes, and gives her name: [[Ursula]], and explains she lost in the first round. At this point, Jessie remembers Ursula, explaining to [[James]] and {{MTR}} what Ursula just told Ash, Dawn and Brock. Ursula then comments on how Dawn's win at the Wallace Cup was a fluke, and also explains it pushed her to work a lot harder. She says to Ash, after he tells Ursula Dawn's skills won her the Wallace Cup, &quot;You're right! Thanks to her I started working doubly hard, to become a better, more beautiful, more graceful {{pkmn|Coordinator}}. You know I should thank you for defeating me Dawn, because of you I am where I am today!&quot; and lets out a sinister laugh. Ash and Brock are curious as to why Ursula won't let her loss go. She continues to patronize Dawn, until Dawn finally cuts her off, saying they'll settle it at the Contest. Ursula leaves, letting out a sinister laugh for the second time. <br /> <br /> The episode then cuts to the Contest, and Mamoswine is asleep, completely uninterested in Dawn's contest. Dawn is up for [[Appeals round|appeals]] first, and sends out {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}. Buneary uses {{m|Ice Beam}} to create a winding slide, and as it slides down it, Buneary prepares a {{m|Dizzy Punch}} to send it from the bottom to the top of the slide once again. After several more Coordinators display their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, Jessie is up next, using her {{p|Yanmega}}. Yanmega spirals around Jessie using {{m|Silver Wind}}, causing her to spin in to the air. Yanmega's {{a|Speed Boost}} ability is activated during this. Yanmega fires off a {{m|SonicBoom}}, which boomerangs back towards Yanmega and Jessie. Yanmega then uses Silver Wind and the two attacks collide in a shower of shining particles, and Yanmega holds Jessie on it's tail as their appeal ends. Ursula is up next, using her {{p|Wormadam}}. She commands {{m|Confusion}} and then {{m|Rock Blast}}, causing the rocks to spiral around Wormadam. Next up is {{m|Sandstorm}} and Wormadam uses Confusion to create a sculpture out of itself from the sand, surprising Dawn, Ash, Brock and Jessie, who are watching. Wormadam then uses {{m|Captivate}} to destroy the sculpture. This ends Ursula's performance. Dawn talks with Ash and Brock on the sidelines. She even asks Mamoswine on it's opinion, but it replies with snores. <br /> <br /> Ash and Dawn discuss Ursula's appeal, and Ursula walks in, explaining that she had lost continually in the first round, but she was intending to win. She laughed at the idea of both her and Dawn reaching the final stage, and walked off with Gabite. The results appear, and Ursula, Jessie and Dawn are all in the final eight. Dawn compliments Buneary's performance, and asks Pachirisu if it's ready to go, and it is, nodding to her. (In the background, Battle Frontier theme tune from seasons nine begins to play, and continues to through out the performances, but instead of the words &quot;Battle frontier&quot; It instead sings &quot;Let the battle begin&quot; ) In a few shots of contest battles, Dawn defeats her first opponent, a {{p|Weavile}}, Jessie uses [[James's Carnivine]] to defeat a {{p|Hippopotas}}, and Ursula's Gabite defeats a {{p|Hariyama}}. Ursula battles with Jessie, her Gabite winning over Carnivine. (The music stops as the timer for the battle reaches 0:00.) James and Meowth mourn for Jessie's loss on the sidelines. <br /> <br /> The final round begins, with Dawn facing Ursula. Mamoswine takes a tiny interest, but as Ash comments on this, it returns to sleeping. It's Gabite and Pachirisu facing off, the battle begins. Brock and Ash discuss that Dawn may only be able to attack with Pachirisu's Super Fang. Gabite leaps in to the air, launching a {{m|Dragon Claw}}, and Pachirisu spins and dodges the attack. However, Gabite's speed means it manages to get a clean hit, and Pachirisu takes damage. Dawn commands Super Fang, while Ursula commands Gabite to use {{m|Aerial Ace}}, managing to get past Pachirisu's defense and get several clean hits. Ash and Brock are worried about the outcome, and Pikachu, Buneary and Piplup all cheer hard for Dawn and Pachirisu. In the mean time, Gabite lands with several Dragon Claws and Aerial Aces, and Ursula is confident her victory is assured. Dawn commands {{m|Sweet Kiss}}, but Ursula counters with Aerial Ace, and Pachirisu seems worn out. Ash and Brock discuss about the points, and Mamoswine begins to take interest, taking a peak at the battle through a half opened eye. Two minutes remain, and Ursula commands {{m|Stone Edge}} and Pachirisu counters with Discharge, destroying the shards of rock. Ursula commands {{m|Dragon Rage}}, however Pachirisu counters with {{m|Spark}}, breaking the move. Gabite uses Dragon Claw, and Pachirisu once again counters with it's tail, due to Discharge's energy being stored there. This causes Mamoswine to gain more interest, and it watches with both eyes now. Thirty seconds are left, and Gabite uses Stone Edge again. Pachirisu raises it's tail, creating an electric shield that destroys the shards. Dawn commands Super Fang, and Ursula is quite angry at this point, commanding Dragon Rage. Pachirisu begins to spin similar to a {{m|Flame Wheel}}, using it's Super Fang to cut through the Attack. It reaches Gabite and bites in to it, Gabite covering it's self with its fins just in time to avoid major damage. With that time is up, and Dawn wins the contest. Dawn is ecstatic with her victory, but Ursula shrugs it off, saying &quot;A perfect example of being saved by the bell.&quot; and stroking Gabite's head. Mamoswine is extremely interested, and Ash comments, causing Mamoswine to go back to sleep. Jessie says she wouldn't have missed the contest for the world, apparently liking Ursula's use of stance before striking. Dawn is presented with her fourth [[ribbon]]. As the trio prepare to leave, Ursula crosses their path, saying Dawn won't get any compliments out of her. With that, the trio prepare to head out to [[Snowpoint City]], and Ash's next gym battle.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * [[Dawn's Pachirisu]] learns {{m|Super Fang}}.<br /> * [[Jessie's Yanmega]] is revealed to have {{a|Speed Boost}} as its ability.<br /> * {{an|Dawn}} wins her fourth {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]]. <br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> * [[Ursula]]<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> =====TV episode debuts=====<br /> * {{p|Gabite}} ({{OP|Ursula|Gabite}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Dawn}}<br /> * [[Brock]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Ursula]]<br /> * [[Marian]]<br /> * [[Contesta]]<br /> * [[Mr. Sukizo]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Piplup}} ({{OP|Dawn|Piplup}})<br /> * {{p|Buneary}} ({{OP|Dawn|Buneary}})<br /> * {{p|Pachirisu}} ({{OP|Dawn|Pachirisu}})<br /> * {{p|Ambipom}} ({{OP|Dawn|Ambipom}})<br /> * {{p|Mamoswine}} ({{OP|Dawn|Mamoswine}})<br /> * {{p|Yanmega}} ({{OP|Jessie|Yanmega}})<br /> * {{p|Carnivine}} ({{OP|James|Carnivine}})<br /> * {{p|Gabite}} ([[Ursula]]'s; debut)<br /> * {{p|Wormadam}} (Sandy Cloak) ([[Ursula]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Weavile}}<br /> * {{p|Hippopotas}}<br /> * {{p|Marill}}<br /> * {{p|Magcargo}}<br /> * {{p|Hariyama}}<br /> * {{p|Duskull}}<br /> * {{p|Skorupi}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia== <br /> * ''[[Pokémon Symphonic Medley]]'', ''{{so|Battle Frontier}}'' and an instrumental version of ''[[By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~]]'' are used as background tracks.<br /> ** The dub uses its ''{{OBP|Battle Frontier|dub}}'' during the second round montage, with some lyrics modified to sidestep references to the {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}.<br /> * [[Professor Oak's lecture|Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture]]: {{p|Paras}}.<br /> * This is the first Contest since her trade in ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'' that Dawn did not use Ambipom in.<br /> * The dub's title is based on {{wp|Queen (band)|Queen}}'s song, ''{{wp|Another One Bites the Dust}}''.<br /> * [[Dawn's Buneary]] uses the similar appeal to the one in the [[Wallace Cup]].<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> *Even though Gabite stepped on the [[Poffin]] with its right foot, the Poffin was seen under its left foot when Ursula looked at it.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> <br /> {{EpicodePrevNext|<br /> prevcode=DP113 |<br /> prevtitle=Hold the Phione! |<br /> nextcode=DP115 |<br /> nexttitle=Stealing the Conversation! |<br /> series=Diamond &amp; Pearl series |<br /> colorscheme=Sinnoh}}<br /> {{Project Anime notice}}<br /> [[Category:Diamond &amp; Pearl series episodes|114]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes written by Atsuhiro Tomioka|580]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes storyboarded by Hiroyuki Yamada|580]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes directed by Masahiko Watanabe|580]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes animated by Kunihiko Natsume|580]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes in which Dawn gets a ribbon|580]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes focusing on Dawn|580]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes with contests|580]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes in which a main character's Pokémon learns a new move|580]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Pokémon Contest!

She is voiced by 川澄綾子 ''Ayako Kawasumi'' in Japanese and [[Melissa Schoenberg]] in English.<br /> <br /> She is a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} who entered the {{to|Chocovine}} {{pkmn|Contest}} along with {{an|Dawn}}. Ursula first met Dawn outside the Chocovine [[Contest Hall]] after her female {{p|Gabite}} got into a confrontation with {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} after Gabite stepped on Pachirisu's [[Poffin]]. Ursula offered the Pokémon one of her Poffins but Pachirisu refused it, making her feel a little insulted.<br /> <br /> It was revealed that she had also entered the [[Wallace Cup]] but lost in the first round. She said that she had lost many times in the first round, and as such could improve herself to be a better Coordinator and also mentioned that she had won 3 [[ribbon]]s. She believed Dawn's win in the tournament was a fluke and developed a rivalry with her.<br /> <br /> Throughout the Contest, she remained cynical of Dawn's performance. She managed to make it to the finals, along with {{an|Dawn}}, defeating [[Jessie]] and {{TP|James|Carnivine}} in the process. She ultimately lost to Dawn, but she thought it was only the time limit that saved her.<br /> <br /> She also appears in the latest opening in Japan.<br /> <br /> She is set to reappear in [[DP161]] and [[DP162]].<br /> <br /> ==Pokémon==<br /> This listing is of Ursula's known Pokémon:<br /> <br /> {{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|width=68|Ursula|Gabite|{{dragon color}}|Ursula%27s_Gabite.png|Ursula's main Pokémon is her {{TP|Ursula|Gabite}} which appears to share her bad attitude, happily stepping on Pachirisu's [[Poffin]] and then developing a rivalry with it similar to the one between Dawn and Ursula. Gabite was present when Ursula was knocked out of the Wallace Cup.<br /> <br /> Gabite's known attacks are {{m|Dragon Claw}}, {{m|Aerial Ace}}, {{m|Stone Edge}} and {{m|Dragon Rage}}.<br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|width=68|Ursula|Wormadam|{{bug color}}|Ursula%27s_Wormadam.png|Ursula used her Sandy Cloak {{p|Wormadam}} in the Appeal Round of the Chocovine Contest.

PreCure 5|Yes! Pretty Cure 5}}'': Urara Kasugano (Cure Lemonade)<br /> * Interestingly, both Ursula's English and Japanese voice actresses share the Japanese names of two notable {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s: [[Johanna|Ayako]] and [[Fantina|Melissa]].<br /> <br /> {{coordinators}}<br /> {{animecharacters}}<br /> <br /> {{Project Anime notice|no}}<br /> [[Category:Coordinators]]<br /> [[Category:Female characters]]<br /> <br /> [[fr:Ursula]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Ursula]]</div>

[[Wilma]] explained that Gible was trying his best to learn the move {{m|Draco Meteor}}. But for some reason, the move always failed; instead of exploding in the sky, it always fell to the ground. Most of the time, it fell on {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}. Ash wanted to help the wild Gible learn Draco Meteor and achieve his dreams. It successfully used the move against [[Team Rocket]], but failed again in its next attempt. By the end of the episode, Gible decided to start following Ash.<br /> <br /> In [[DP157]], Ash met with Gible again. [[Barry]] also was interested in catching him. However, Gible decided to let Ash capture him after he saw what Ash would do to protect him. After that, Barry demanded a battle with Ash and his new Gible and was able to defeat it with {{TP|Barry|Empoleon}}.<br /> <br /> Like {{AP|Grotle}} during its time as a {{p|Turtwig}}, Gible seems to enjoy chomping on Ash's head as well as other peoples' heads. Gible also has the ability to devour almost any kind of metals, seen when Gible devoured two of Team Rocket's giant robots, and half of a city park. Despite appearing to be quite gutsy, it is not very bright and is slow to understand simple requests or orders.<br /> <br /> ==Moves used==<br /> {{anmu/h|Dragon|Ground|row=6|align=center|move={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 5}}|0|1=Draco Meteor|2=Dragon Pulse|3=Dig|4=Rock Smash}}|pic=Gible {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 5}}|0|1=Draco Meteor|2=Dragon Pulse|3=Dig|4=Slash}}.png}}<br /> {{anmu|Dark|Bite|DP156}}<br /> {{anmu|Ground|Dig|DP156}}<br /> {{anmu|Dragon|Draco Meteor|DP156}}<br /> {{anmu|Dragon|Dragon Pulse|DP156}}<br /> {{anmu|Fighting|Rock Smash|DP157}}<br /> {{anmu/f|ground}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Gible is the very first {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon that Ash (or any main character) has owned. It is also Ash's first Pokémon that can evolve into a [[pseudo-legendary]] Pokémon (if his unofficial {{AP|Larvitar}} isn't counted).<br /> * Gible is the third Pokémon to eat a [[Poké Ball]]. The first two were [[Nero]] and [[May's Munchlax]].<br /> * Gible is the second Pokémon of Ash's to destroy [[Barry|a friend]]'s [[Bicycle|bike]]. The first was {{AP|his Pikachu|Pikachu}}, which destroyed [[Misty]]'s, {{an|May}}'s, ''and'' {{an|Dawn}}'s bikes, but unlike Pikachu, who fried the bikes by accident, Gible ate Barry's bike on purpose.<br /> * Gible is the third &lt;!--or 32nd, if one counts all 30 of Ash's Tauros--&gt; of Ash's Pokémon to have its gender confirmed before being obtained by Ash, due to the notch on its fin. The first two were {{AP|Tauros}} (due to male being the only possible gender for Tauros) and {{AP|Buizel}}.<br /> * Gible is the second Pokémon of Ash's to know an [[HM]] move, the first being [[Ash's Grotle]] with Rock Climb. <br /> ** Coincidentally, both attacks start with &quot;Rock&quot; in their name.<br /> * A Gible appeared in ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]'' prior to Ash catching one. Other Pokémon that have followed this pattern include {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}, {{AP|Buizel}}, {{AP|Donphan}}, {{TP|May|Munchlax}}, {{AP|Aipom}} and {{TP|Brock|Bonsly}}.<br /> <br /> ==Related articles==<br /> *{{Animespecies|Gible}}<br /> <br /> {{Ash's Pokémon}}&lt;br&gt;<br /> {{Project Anime notice|no}}<br /> [[Category:Ash's Pokémon|Gible]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Ashs Kaumalat]]<br /> [[pl:Gible Asha]]<br /> [[pt:Gible de Ash]]</div>

His voice actor in both Japanese and English is 古島清孝 ''[[Kiyotaka Furushima]]''.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> ===With Dawn===<br /> Buizel has a vastly different type of personality than Dawn's other Pokémon. He purposely looks for {{pkmn|battle}}s with {{pkmn|Trainer}}s' Pokémon and loves to show off his amazing strength. He first took out [[Dawn's Piplup]], then [[Zoey's Glameow]], and finally [[Ash's Pikachu]] by using his incredible speed and moves like {{m|Aqua Jet}}. He showed bitterness towards humans, but gained respect for Dawn after she saved him from a nasty fall. Afterwards, Buizel found her worthy enough for a second battle, where she was able to capture him.<br /> [[Image:Ash'sBuizel.png|left|thumb|200px|Buizel's first appearance]]<br /> Since then, though, he still gets along poorly with most other Pokémon. In particular, he seems to have a rivalry developing with one of the other strength-oriented Pokémon on the cast, [[Brock's Croagunk]]. However, they may have started to get along with each other as they are with each other in ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand!]]'' while the others play.<br /> <br /> ===With Ash===<br /> [[File:Ash Buizel contest.png|thumb|right|Buizel in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]<br /> In ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', Dawn began the Contest training for the [[Solaceon Town]] {{pkmn|Contest}}; however, Buizel seemed to be more interested in Ash's battle training and thus couldn't set its mind on Dawn's training. Meanwhile, [[Dawn's Ambipom|Ash's Aipom]] appeared to have a similar problem in Ash's training because she tended to be more interested in Dawn's Contest training. Then [[Zoey]] proposed that Ash and Dawn trade them. After some soul-searching, the trainers agreed, and the trade took place.<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]'', during a battle between Ash and Dawn, Buizel's {{m|SonicBoom}} was deflected by Aipom, hitting a stone tower and freeing a {{p|Spiritomb}}.<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', he fought [[Maylene's Lucario]] in a Gym Battle, resulting in a Double KO and a tied match. During the battle, Buizel learned {{m|Water Pulse}}. Buizel's version is unique, as Buizel's Water Pulse retains its spherical shape, which is presumably inspired by the {{m|Aura Sphere}} of Maylene's Lucario.<br /> <br /> In a ''[[DP077|Staging a Heroes Welcome]]'' and ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'', Buizel participated in his first contest-style competition as Ash's entry for the Wallace Cup. Buizel succeeded in the appeal rounds due to a dazzling combination of {{m|Aqua Jet}}, {{m|Water Gun}}, {{m|SonicBoom}}, and the utilization of his inflatable tube around its neck, but lost in the second round of battles to a {{p|Lanturn}}, after defeating a {{p|Kecleon}} in the first battle round. He perfected an {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Aqua Jet}} combination that Dawn had tried to teach him in [[DP041|an earlier episode]].<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP083|A Crasher Course in Power!]]'' Buizel was training for Ash's Gym battle and was accidentally shocked by {{AP|Pikachu}}. Buizel angrily jumped at Pikachu but was restrained by {{AP|Turtwig}}. Buizel continued to hold a grudge against Pikachu during the battle. Buizel defeated [[Crasher Wake]]'s {{p|Quagsire}} using its &quot;Ice Jet&quot; combination and stayed on to battle {{TP|Crasher Wake|Floatzel}}. Floatzel managed to use most of Buizel's attacks against him and eventually confused him with his own {{m|Water Pulse}}. Buizel was recalled and Pikachu was sent out. Buizel eventually shook off the confusion to see Pikachu valiantly fighting a losing battle against Floatzel. Floatzel eventually partially froze Pikachu's back and Buizel wanted to get back in the fight. As Pikachu and Buizel tagged out, they exchanged a high five and Buizel broke the ice on Pikachu's back with a Water Gun. Buizel went on to defeat Floatzel by using a Water Pulse at close range, defeating Floatzel and earning Ash his {{badge|Fen}}.<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP102|A Shield with a Twist]]'' Buizel defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Gengar}}, marking the debut of his own [[Counter Shield]] strategy, but lost to her {{TP|Fantina|Drifblim}}.<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', he was used in battle against [[Byron]]'s {{p|Steelix}}, but he could only use a Water Gun attack, which was easily countered by Steelix's {{m|Screech}}. The Iron Snake Pokémon, having Buizel unable to move due to the loud noise, trapped him with {{m|Bind}}, threw him into the air and finally defeated him with an {{m|Iron Tail}} straight on his head, slamming him to the ground. When the dust caused by the impact cleared, Buizel was still standing, but ultimately collapsed and was unable to battle. When Ash went to see if he was severely injured, he looked at him with a smile, then Ash thanked him and returned him to its [[Poké Ball]].<br /> <br /> In ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'' and ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]'', Buizel was the first Pokémon used by Ash in his full battle against [[Paul]] (which was also the first time Buizel had battled Paul since being traded to Ash), however he was immediately recalled by Ash when Paul chose to start with his {{TP|Paul|Torterra}}. Buizel was later sent out against Paul's {{TP|Paul|Magmortar}}, but despite the type advantage he struggled against the {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon and was {{status|poison}}ed by its {{m|Smog}} before Paul recalled it. Paul then sent out his {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}} and Buizel again found himself up against a stronger opponent. Nevertheless, Buizel put up a good fight and was able to use the [[Counter Shield]] technique developed for the Gym battle against [[Fantina]] to hurt Ursaring. When Buizel started to lose strength Ash wished to recall him; however, the weasel Pokémon requested to stay in the battle and Ash agreed. This proved to be a mistake, as Buizel was instantly knocked out by Ursaring's following {{m|Focus Blast}}.<br /> &lt;!--Buizel will battle a trainer and his {{p|Mr. Mime}}, where Buizel learns {{m|Ice Punch}} in an upcoming episode.--&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Moves used==<br /> {{anmu/h|water|row=6|align=center|move={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=Aqua Jet|2=Water Pulse}}|pic={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 3}}|0|1=Buizel a jet.png|2=Buizel water pulse.png}}}}<br /> {{anmu|water|Water Gun|DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This!|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|water|Aqua Jet|DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This!|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|SonicBoom|DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This!|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|water|Water Pulse|DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu|ice|Ice Punch|DP159|rec=yes}}<br /> {{anmu/f|water}}<br /> <br /> ===Moves improvised===<br /> [[File:Buizel ice aqua jet.png|thumb|Ice Aqua Jet]]<br /> * '''Ice Aqua Jet''', also known as just &quot;Ice Jet&quot;, is a combination of Buizel's {{m|Aqua Jet}} and another Pokémon's {{m|Ice Beam}}. It was first attempted in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit Down!]]'' by {{an|Dawn}}, but was later successfully used by {{Ash}} in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' and in ''[[DP083|A Crasher Course in Power!]]'' against [[Crasher Wake]]'s Quagsire. It was used again in ''[[DP126|Classroom Training!]]''.<br /> <br /> * '''[[Counter Shield]]''' was used in ''[[DP102|Shield With a Twist!]]'' and ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]''. Buizel uses {{m|Water Gun}} while spinning, releasing water everywhere, disallowing movement for the opponent. It is a means of defending and attacking at the same time.<br /> <br /> * In ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'' Buizel used a spinning {{m|Aqua Jet}} with {{m|Water Pulse}} resulting in a tie with [[Maylene's Lucario]].<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Buizel is the seventh Pokémon to follow the pattern of premiering in a movie and then being captured by one of the main characters. In all cases, the premiered Pokémon is not the same character as the one caught, just the same species. In some cases, this may be a result of the writers deciding a Pokémon works well with the group after they are shown together. Ash's Buizel comes after ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''.<br /> * In his entire time as one of Dawn's Pokémon, Buizel never actually participated in a contest. <br /> ** Ironically, while under the care of Ash he finally participated in his first contest in ''[[DP077|Staging a Heroes Welcome]]''.<br /> * Buizel is one of the few main characters' Pokémon to be traded, along with [[Ash's Butterfree]], {{AP|Raticate}}, and {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}}, [[Jessie's Lickitung]], and [[James's Victreebel]].<br /> * Buizel is Ash's third Pokémon received in a trade (the first is {{AP|Raticate}}, and the second was {{AP|Butterfree}}, when he traded Raticate back). <br /> * Buizel and {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} are the first two Pokémon to be traded between main characters. Coincidentally, both are in the {{egg3|Ground}} and of opposite genders, and both use their Japanese voice actors in the English dub whilst in their unevolved forms.<br /> * Buizel is Ash's first {{wp|mammal}}ian {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.<br /> * Buizel and Pikachu are the only Pokémon currently on Ash's team that have both their [[gender]] and [[ability]] confirmed.<br /> * A constant animation quirk that occurs with Buizel is that his eyes briefly turn the same color as his Water Gun. This is almost always seen when Buizel uses Water Gun up close.<br /> * As of the latest Japanese episode, Buizel is the only Pokémon to have used an improvised move three times, having used his ''Ice Aqua Jet'' in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'', ''[[DP083| A Crasher Course in Power!]]'' and ''[[DP126|Classroom Training!]]''.<br /> ** Buizel has also used his [[Counter Shield]] twice, but {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Monferno}} have already used their own twice too. The three have used their respective Counter Shields in ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist!]]'' and ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]''.<br /> * Buizel is similar to Ash's {{AP|Sceptile}}, due to both of them being loners and prime battlers.<br /> <br /> ==Related articles==<br /> {{Animespecies|Buizel}}<br /> {{-}}<br /> {{Ash's Pokémon}}&lt;br&gt;<br /> {{Dawn's Pokémon}}&lt;br&gt;<br /> {{Project Anime notice|no}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Ash's Pokémon|Buizel]]<br /> [[Category:Dawn's Pokémon|Buizel]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Ashs Bamelin]]<br /> [[fr:Mustébouée de Sacha]]<br /> [[ja:サトシのブイゼル]]<br /> [[pl:Buizel Asha]]<br /> [[pt:Buizel de Ash]]</div>

However, after a hard-fought battle, it lost the match. <br /> <br /> In ''[[DP102|A Shield with a Twist]]'', it was revealed that Empoleon had trained with Barry in [[Iron Island]] before they defeated [[Byron]].

It appeared in ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]'' with its {{pkmn|Trainer}}, bidding Ash and {{ashfr|co.}} a farewell. It appeared again in ''[[DP122|Stopped in the Name of Love!]]'' alongside Barry. <br /> <br /> In ''[[DP124|To Thine Own Pokémon Be True!]]'', it competed in the [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]] together with [[Barry]].

Its voice actress in both Japanese and English is ''[[Megumi Hayashibara]]''.<br /> <br /> It was shedding its skin and Clair was protecting it at that time. When [[Team Rocket]] tried to steal Dratini, Clair protected it which led it to [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Dragonair}}.<br /> <br /> It later appeared in ''[[EP252|Fangs for Nothin']]'' where it tried to stop Team Rocket from stealing the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}. When the [[Dragon Holy Land]] was in flames, Dragonair helped to put out the fire. It also helped to calm the rampaging {{p|Dragonite}} along with {{AP|Charizard}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}.<br /> <br /> Clair used it in the gym battle against {{Ash}} in ''[[EP254|Better Eight Than Never]]''. With its speed and power, it defeated [[Ash's Pikachu]] easily. With a wide range of moves like {{m|Dragon Rage}}, it proved to be a tough challenge for {{TP|Ash|Charizard}} as well. But finally it was able to defeat Dragonair with {{m|Seismic Toss}} earning Ash the {{badge|Rising}}.<br /> <br /> Dragonair also appeared along with Clair in ''[[EP255|Why? Why Not!]]'' where it helped Ash find his missing gym badges which were stolen by Team Rocket.<br /> <br /> ===Moves used===<br /> {{anmu/h|dragon|row=8|align=center|move=Twister|pic=Clair's Dragonair Twister.png}}<br /> {{anmu|dragon|Twister|EP251|Beauty is Skin Deep}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Wrap|EP254|Better Eight Than Never}}<br /> {{anmu|electric|Thunder Wave|EP253|Great Bowls of Fire!}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Safeguard|EP253|Great Bowls of Fire!}}<br /> {{anmu|normal|Hyper Beam|EP253|Great Bowls of Fire!}}<br /> {{anmu|steel|Iron Tail|EP254|Better Eight Than Never}}<br /> {{anmu|dragon|Dragon Rage|EP254|Better Eight Than Never}}<br /> {{anmu/f|dragon|no|c=l}}<br /> <br /> ==In the games==<br /> As mentioned above, Clair has three Dragonair in the games, but they are not her highest leveled Pokémon, her {{p|Kingdra}} is.
