==History==
Danny was the second [[Gym Leader]] {{Ash}} encountered in the [[Orange Archipelago]], in ''[[EP093|Navel Maneuvers]]''. He did not simply battle Ash, however; instead, he challenged Ash to work with his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in order to win the [[Badge]]. Initially, Danny and Ash had to climb a mountain without the aid of any of their Pokémon. The next challenge was to freeze a geyser the quickest, and Danny's {{p|Nidoqueen}} won over [[Ash's Lapras]]. Next, Ash and Danny each chose three Pokémon to build a bobsled from a frozen geyser jet, with Ash winning the round.
The final challenge was a race down the mountain and to the beach using their new bobsleds and the use of three Pokémon each. {{TRT}} interrupted the bobsled race, trapping Ash and Danny in a pitfall trap and attempting to steal {{AP|Pikachu}}. However, Danny called out his {{p|Electrode}}, which sent Team Rocket blasting off and recovered Pikachu in the process. Afterwards, he and Ash continued the race, with Ash narrowly winning. With two of three of the rounds awarded to Ash, Danny presented him with the Badge.


He is the second Gym Leader {{Ash}} encounters in the [[Orange Archipelago]]. He appears to be is in his mid-20s and enjoys water sports including sailing and windsurfing. He and [[Misty]] seem to develop a relationship in the {{pkmn|anime}} episode ''[[EP093|Navel Maneuvers]]''.
He reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[EP098|A Way Off Day Off]]'' and ''[[EP111|Hello, Pummelo!]]''.

Next, Ash and Danny each chose three Pokémon to build a bobsled from a frozen geyser jet, with Ash winning the round.

The final challenge was a race down the mountain and to the beach using their new bobsleds and the use of three Pokémon each. Team Rocket interrupted the bobsled race, trapping Ash and Danny in a pitfall trap and attempting to steal Pikachu. However, Danny called out his Electrode, which sent Team Rocket blasting off and recovered Pikachu in the process. Afterwards, he and Ash continued the race, with Ash narrowly winning. With two of three of the rounds awarded to Ash, Danny presented him with the Badge.

He reappeared in flashbacks in A Way Off Day Off and Hello, Pummelo!.
