Gold (Japanese: ゴールド Gold) is a main character in the manga series Pokémon Adventures. His starter Pokémon is a Cyndaquil which he "borrowed" from Professor Elm; what his actual first Pokémon was is not clear, since he grew up in a house full of Pokémon. His neighbors in New Bark Town refer to his family as the "Poké House". He likes playing billiards, but sometimes he may use his Pokémon to cheat. His favorite idol/DJ is DJ Mary from the Goldenrod Radio Station.

He usually wears a pair of goggles and travels on a scooter. Instead of throwing/kicking his Poké Balls, he uses a billiard cue to shoot them out. Gold's hobbies include gambling, skateboarding, and trying foods from different cities. Professor Oak noted that while Red had some odd habits, Gold is much more immature and mischievous. Gold's mother has described him as "careless".

Gold also tends to lie at times, and other people around him notice it.

Gold's special skill, as described by Professor Oak, is Pokémon hatching and is known as the "Hatcher" (孵す者 Hatcher), known as Breeder in Chuang Yi's translations. He has the ability to draw out the largest potential of a baby Pokémon, having lived with Pokémon his whole life.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

Gold in the third chapter

During the first part of the third chapter, Gold is the main protagonist. He first meets Joey by helping him get a bag filled with Pokémon that was to go to Professor Elm, but was stolen by a Murkrow. Then Gold gets his bag stolen when he decides to help Joey by going to deliver the package to Professor Elm and then go to Professor Oak in Cherrygrove City (mainly because he wanted DJ Mary's autograph). On his way to Professor Elm's lab, and arrives there just as Silver is stealing Totodile. Gold tries to battle Silver thinking that he is the one who stole his backpack with all of his family Pokémon in it, using Elm's Cyndaquil, which he names Exbo, but Silver gets away after Team Rocket, the real culprits behind his bag, knocked him out from behind in the middle of the battle. He is then asked to file a report against him by a police officer who almost arrested him for burning Professor Elm's field but he fakes it on purpose because he wanted to go after Silver himself.

Gold then runs into Professor Oak, and after learning about the Pokédex and how Silver stole one, he wants one to level the playing field. While Oak initially says no, Gold eventually wins him over with his love and trust for Pokémon earning him a Pokédex. When Gold reaches Violet City, he realizes that Polibo was missing from his bag and tried his best to find it, but couldn't. He then stops a robber with a herd of Donphan and learns that Silver had headed for Sprout Tower and rushes off there and defeats a whole mass of Sages and their Bellsprout to find Silver again and finish what he started. After as long battle he had the chance to take Totodile back to Professor Elm, but when he reaches out to it bites him and returns to Silver, showing that Totodile has actually grown attached to him. Their battle had then released a giant iron ball and it chased them down until Exbo heated it up and Totodile used Ice Punch to suddenly cool it down and smash it up. After this Silver manages to escape once again.

He then met up with the same police officer he met when he needed to describe Silver but it turned out to be Falkner who was training to become the new Gym Leader of Violet City since his father went missing. With Gold's help, he caught a Skarmory and then they parted. Then he met Bugsy at the Ruins of Alph and, thinking that he was a girl, asked him out only to reveal he was a male. The two of them then enter the Ruins of Alph to help save Bugsy's lost companions but instead run into Team Rocket, who trapped them using a Spinarak's Spider Web. Gold, however, had Exbo use SmokeScreen to get the Unown that were awakened by them get caught in the web, and take out their anger on the members of Team Rocket. Gold then defeats a Granbull who had been stealing Pokémon from fisherman and when the Granbull gave back the Pokémon it turns out it took Gold's Polibo. Professor Oak's aide then comes to him with Togebo's Egg and Professor Elm asks Gold to take it with him with hopes of it hatching.

Gold then meets Kurt, and after making fun of his Apricorn Balls, Kurt challenges him to catch a Pokémon with one: if he lost, he had to become Kurt's apprentice. Gold chooses the Green Apricorn and a Friend Ball is made and since Kurt's granddaughter wanted to have a Friend Ball but Kurt would not make her one, Gold decided to use it to catch a friend for her. This was a Teddiursa which lived on a mountain Kurt told her to never go to. Gold decided to take her there and saw Silver trying to catch and Ursaring with a Heavy Ball, something that annoyed him since Kurt said only worthy Trainers could handle his balls meaning Silver was worthier than him. He found a Teddiursa and tried to catch it to no avail. He ended up getting in Silver's way a lot and Silver lost his Heavy Ball when Aibo ran into him. Gold then learned from Silver that he needed to hit Teddiursa's crescent moon on its head and Gold got back his Heavy Ball by using his billiard cue and Friend Ball to ricochet both of them back to their respective Trainers. Silver once again disappeared and Gold completed his task and gave Teddiursa to Maisy.

Gold then goes through the Ilex Forest but finds himself hopelessly lost. He then finds the unconscious Charcoal Kiln and his Farfetch'd and decides to carry them, but he realizes that a Gastly has possessed them from how unusually heavy their bodies were. After a bit of battling with Gastly a Houndour, a Delibird, and an Ariados appear to battle alongside the Gastly and then a Masked Man appears and reveals them to be his Pokémon and warns Gold to leave this forest. He quickly has his Ariados tie Gold up and simply disappears when he comes to the realization that his small scuffle with Gold has caused Celebi to flee from his grasp again.

Gold then goes to Goldenrod City and runs into a rogue Smeargle that paints over his face, much to his ire. A man then comes up to him and wants Gold to make an appearance on their Radio Show, which Gold accepts since he would be no longer be broke and he would get to finally meet DJ Mary, only to discover in horror that the Smeargle belonged to her. Gold and Whitney then got into a heated argument but when the director of the radio show found that the show's ratings were through the roof he proposed they have a race. Since the race was sponsored by Miracle Cycle, Gold initially couldn't ride his skateboard like he wanted to but he found a way to compromise by putting the handles from one of the bikes onto his skateboard to make a scooter. While Gold was promptly behind Whitney was stalled by a Sudowoodo disguised as a tree. Gold had his whole team attack it and saw how Polibo's Water Gun made it react more than Exbo's Ember attacks. When a Rhydon came up and kidnapped Whitney, Gold was able to figure out that the tree was a Sudowoodo. He was able to convince the Sudowoodo that it was strong and after it defeated the same Rhydon it was hiding from, it wanted to go with him, which Gold allowed, naming him Sudobo.

While Gold was asleep one night after being kicked out of several arcades for cheating by using Aibo's Poké Ball disguised as a cue ball, his Egg gets stolen by a Gligar. He does not wake up to notice it but his Pokémon go after it to save the Egg. In the process the Egg hatches into a Togepi, Togebo, who defeats the Gligar with ease even though it had just hatched. He only wakes up after Togebo defeats the Gligar with Metronome and it crashes right next to him. When Gold told Professor Elm he was at first ecstatic, only to become furious when he realized that Togebo became a natural at billiards, poker, and dice due to Gold's influence when it was an Egg.

Elm then had Gold take Togebo to the Day-Care Center where the old lady there convinced him to do their work by disguising it as a training for his Pokémon. It did pay off though when Exbo evolved into a Quilava. The Day-Care Couple then had Gold go fetch Jasmine, whose Pokémon were the parents of Togebo. Jasmine had been at Ecruteak City at the time an earthquake hit and was trapped inside the Tin Tower. When he made it to her he found Silver carrying her and he thought he had hurt her, although Silver simply found her unconscious and decided to save her. Gold then was simply given Jasmine and Silver walked away. Gold was able to get Jasmine out right before the rubble collapsed by having Amphy run her to safety, but him and Silver were trapped. Mud started to press up against then and they only made it through when Polibo evolved into a Poliwhirl and further into a Politoed thanks to Silver's help and the King's Rock the Day-Care Couple gave to Gold before he departed. He then found out that Team Rocket was, once again, the cause of the earthquake.

After Gold and Silver defeat the Team Rocket Grunts, Gold wonders whether or not Silver has ever enjoyed a battle, and requests one against him, to which he accepts. The battle starts out and remains pretty even, even against Silver's newly evolved Kingdra, until Silver uses a Tyranitar borrowed from Lance, which is able to wreak havoc on Gold's whole team with its Sandstorm but is able to defeat it with Togebo, however Togebo gets squashed and Gold is defeated. Silver then departs for the Lake of Rage with Gold insisting on coming with him.

Gold then follows Silver to the Lake of Rage, and he helps Silver in catching the Red Gyarados by distracting the other Gyarados, and once their leader was caught by Silver, they went away. However, they run into the Masked Man again and the two of them fight over who's to battle him. Shortly after the battle begins he reveals that he kidnapped Silver as a child and that he escaped, and that he's the real leader of the resurrected Team Rocket. Silver then gained Gold's respect and the two bounced back.

Gold and Red heading off to Mt. Silver at the end of the third chapter

Gold and Silver realize that they share a common enemy and battle the Masked Man together at the Lake of Rage, but they are defeated and sent crashing toward the now-frozen Lake of Rage, and their fates are left unknown for a while.

It is later revealed the two boys are in Whirl Islands, as rescued by Entei, where they are found by Lt. Surge, and their missing valuables, including the Red Gyarados, are returned. They meet Crystal after she nearly drowns in the wreckage and battle the rabid Lugia that starts attacking them, and they are all nearly defeated until his Quilava, Silver's Croconaw, and Crystal's Megaree all evolve into their final forms. The tables nearly turned when Gold even disabled the giant bird's Aeroblast attack by placing his billiard cue inside its mouth to keep it from closing with the aid of his new Mantine and Remoraid getting him close enough, but Gold fails at catching it due to not having his billiard cue, and it is later discovered that someone managed to catch it before they did when the Poké Ball Crystal kicked turned out to be empty. Having failed to track it down with the Area function of the Pokédex, Gold and Crystal then head to the opening ceremony of the Pokémon League, where all 16 Gym Leaders of Kanto and Johto have gathered to battle each other, to try to determine which one of the Gym Leaders is the Masked Man. They battle Sham and Carl in the Control Room and end up winning with a powerful Mega Drain, but are locked in until Crystal's Parasect melts the door. The Masked Man then appears at the scene with both Lugia and Ho-Oh and starts wreaking havoc before heading to the shrine in Ilex Forest, where the final battle then takes place.

Gold battles the Masked Man and finds out his real identity by smashing his mask after a clever combination that corners the villain, but to avoid defeat, the dastardly man threatens to crush Pika and Chuchu's Egg if he attacks once more. Gold is horribly beaten by the nemesis, but his efforts of attempting to protect the Egg in his arms cause it to hatch into Pichu, which inherits his personality as a result. After being reassured of his ability as the Hatcher of the Pokédex holders, he then follows the villain back in time with Silver and Crystal on the three legendary beasts, and eventually manages to escape after freeing Celebi. At the end of the Gold, Silver & Crystal arc, Gold goes to train under Red on Mt. Silver.

Emerald arc

File:GoldEmeraldchapter.png
Gold during the sixth chapter

During the Emerald arc, Gold, along with Crystal, traveled to the Battle Frontier in order to bring the petrified Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, and Silver out of their stone state by wishing upon the phantom Pokémon Jirachi and stop the armored man known as Guile Hideout.

Disguised as Guile Hideout

When he first arrived, he disguised himself as Guile Hideout hoping to trick the real one's Pokémon into letting him to get to Jirachi. This plan failed however and Gold was forced to use the ultimate Fire-type attack, Blast Burn, which Gold learned on Two Island thanks to the help of Kimberly. This becomes the first attack the villain's reflective sword could not deflect. He also later adds that learning the technique, unlike his three predecessors and those to follow, took two whole months.

Now ready to take Jirachi back from Guile Hideout, Gold, Crystal, Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald prepare to face off their foe. This required Gold and Crystal to give the metal rings of Kimberly the ultimate attacks to the starters of Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and Silver (who was still petrified). When Gold spoke to Emerald, he made the younger boy rethink his relationship with Pokémon. This allowed Emerald to finally teach his Sceptile the powerful Frenzy Plant, and in turn free the petrified Pokédex holders with the help of Jirachi. Gold then combined forces with the other nine Pokédex holders in order to destroy the great sea monster that had manifested itself above the Battle Tower.

With the beast finally gone, the five petrified Pokédex holders back to life and Archie seemingly dead, Gold went and fought in a tournament in the Battle Dome against the other Pokédex holders, which he, at some point, lost (the only other Trainer to have been confirmed to lose is Crystal, who lost against Green in the first round).

HeartGold & SoulSilver arc

Gold in the ninth chapter

The chapter opens up with Gold facing a Pokémon known as Arceus with his entire team. Despite his best efforts, none of his attacks seem to affect the Alpha Pokémon, which responds by attacking his Pokémon with a powerful roar. He tells his Pokémon to hold on as he waits for Silver to arrive and help just as Arceus begins glowing.

A few weeks earlier, Gold and Whitney are seen traveling to the Pokéathlon Dome to compete in the Pokéathlon. After a forced change of clothes, Gold begins his challenge with the Jump Course, which he wins with the help of Sudobo, Sunbo, and Togebo. There, he encounters his idol, DJ Mary, again along with the Radio Director, who were hosting the event.

Gold at the Pokéathlon

In the Speed Course, Gold faces another competitor, Jet, who manages to beat him at Hurdle Dash and Pennant Capture. In the final round, Relay Run, Gold faces Jet one last time. His opponent clearly outmatches him, but Gold and Togebo manage to beat Jet, earning Gold yet another medal.

Having beaten four courses, Gold decides to challenge the final one, the Power Course. There, he encounters the Elite Four, Will, Karen, Koga, and Bruno, who have come to the Pokéathlon to compete and advertise the Pokémon League. Gold decides to challenge them, only to be clearly outmatched in the Circle Push and Goal Roll games.

In the final round, Block Smash, Gold, Aibo, Polibo, and Exbo face off against Bruno and his Machamp. Although he proves to be a powerful opponent, Gold uses a cunning strategy to beat Bruno, winning the final course and medal in process. After congratulating his victory, Bruno reveals that he knows that Gold is at the Pokéathlon for another purpose other than just to compete.

With his cover blown, Gold reveals that Professor Oak had asked him to meet up with Lance at the Pokéathlon competition because Lance has information on the newly-revived Team Rocket and the Pokémon Arceus. After finishing his story, a Dragonite emerges from a nearby lake and begins to attack the Pokéathlon Dome. With the help of Togebo, Gold defeats the Pokémon and figures out that it belongs to Lance. Disappointed that Lance clearly is not going to show up, Gold forces the Radio Director to take him to Ecruteak City so that he can see the Kimono Girls.

Later, an infatuated Gold watches as the five Kimono Girls dance at the Ecruteak Dance Hall. There, Aibo evolves into an Ambipom after doing some training with Polibo and Sunbo. He also meets Morty, the Ecruteak Gym Leader, and learns of his ability to track people with his psychic powers. They go to the Ecruteak Gym, where Gold gives Morty a piece of Lance's torn clothes that he retrieved from the battle with the Dragonite in order to find Lance.

Soon after, it hatched into a Togepi, christened Togebo (Jp: トゲたろう Togetarō). Togebo is one of Gold's strongest Pokémon because of his violent tendencies, and he picked up a lot of Gold's gambling habits while in his Egg as well (to Elm's displeasure). Togepi was only newborn when he defeated an adult Tyranitar (getting badly squashed in the process).

In the HeartGold & SoulSilver arc, it was revealed that Gold never really believed in Togebo's strength, which he showed by holding him back in battles.

Trivia

  • Gold was the only character introduced without a major goal that he desired to achieve.
  • Almost all Pokémon that Gold owned had nicknames ending in -taro (a common masculine name ending in Japanese) in Japanese and Chuang Yi's Singaporean English translations. In the VIZ Media English translation, the '-taro' suffix is replaced with '-bo'.
