Ash's Buizel (Japanese: サトシのブイゼル Satoshi's Buoysel) is the fourth Pokémon captured by Dawn in Buizel Your Way Out of This. His voice actor in both Japanese and English is 古島清孝 Kiyotaka Furushima.
History
With Dawn
Buizel has a vastly different type of personality than Dawn's other Pokémon. He purposely looks for battles with Trainers' 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 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.
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 while the others play.
Buizel caused a degree of controversy in the Pokémon community, as many had hoped that he would belong to Ash instead of Dawn. One of the more common reasonings for this was that Ash had not yet captured a Template:Type2 Pokémon in the Sinnoh region, and Dawn had her Piplup already. But then...
With Ash
In Throwing the Track Switch, Dawn began the Contest training for the Solaceon Town 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 Ash's Aipom appeared to have a similar problem in Ash's training because it 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.
In The Keystone Pops!, during a battle between Ash and Dawn, Buizel's SonicBoom was deflected by Aipom, hitting a stone tower and freeing a Spiritomb.
In DP068, he fought Maylene's Lucario in a Gym Battle, resulting in a Double KO and a tied match. During the battle, Buizel learned Water Pulse.
In a DP077 and DP078, Buizel participated in his first contest-style competition, as Ash's entry for the Wallace Cup. Buizel succeeded in the appeal rounds, but lost in the second round of battles. He has perfected an Ice Beam and Aqua Jet combination that Dawn had tried to teach it in an earlier episode.

Trivia
- Buizel is the sixth 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. Others include (in movie order):
- Ash's Donphan coming after Mewtwo Strikes Back
- Ash's Aipom after Spell of the Unown (the Mew in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew also takes an Aipom form while playing with Pikachu and the other Pokémon)
- May's Munchlax after Destiny Deoxys
- James's Mime Jr. and Brock's Bonsly after Lucario and the Mystery of Mew.
- Although not one of the main character's Pokémon, Paul's Murkrow evolved into Honchkrow after The Rise of Darkrai.
- In his entire time as one of Dawn's Pokémon, Buizel never actually participated in a contest.
- Ironically, while under the care of Ash he finally participated in his first contest in DP077.
- While Buizel may have a rivalry with Brock's Croagunk, Brock's Sudowoodo seems to admire Buizel and even follows him around and tries to mimic what he does.
- Buizel is one of the few main characters' Pokémon to be traded, along with Ash's Butterfree, Aipom and Jessie's Lickitung.
- Buizel is Ash's second Pokémon received in a trade (the first is Raticate) and the first not to be traded back in the same episode.
- Buizel along with Aipom are the first two Pokémon to be traded between main characters. Coincidentally, both use their Japanese voice actors in the English dub whilst in their unevolved forms. Whether this will be true for Ambipom or if Buizel evolves is unknown.
- Buizel is Ash's first mammalian Template:Type2 Pokémon.
