Some Bulbapedia members have formed a [[Bulbapedia:Project|project]] to better organize efforts pertaining to sprites on Bulbapedia. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page or the [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/forumdisplay.php?f=195 Bulbapedia forum]. Please also read the [[Bulbapedia:Project SpriteDex/To-do list|to-do list]].

==Project SpriteDex==
===Scope and aims===
Project SpriteDex aims to complete and perfect Bulbapedia's sprite library. In short, any links where images should be must be replaced with the proper image, and any sprites with white backgrounds must be made transparent. Whenever the next generation of Pokémon games is released, the project will focus its attention on the new sprites.

Project SpriteDex also aims to get animated sprites for games this applies to; currently the main series games with animated Pokémon sprites are Pokémon Crystal, Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions. While GIF is currently used for the Crystal and Emerald sprites, eventually the support for this old format will be dropped in favor of animated PNG images.

One more aspect of Project SpriteDex is to get every sprite in Bulbagarden Archives to be correctly categorized. There are still many sprites without the correct templates added to their pages.

===Participants===
To join the project, simply add your name to the bottom of this list:

* '''{{u|UltimateSephiroth}} {{tt|(Hover to see the merits)|Jap RG sprite flipping, Y transparency/flipping, G transparency/size fixing and RS transparency/size fixing}}''' - Project Leader
* {{u|LordArceus}} - I do {{tt|this stuff|For all games: Transparency fixes, flips, providing sprites in place of links, size fixes}}... - Project founder
* {{u|Kogoro}} - Well, since I've already fixed a few transparency issues, I guess I should add myself.
* {{u|Chocolate}} - Some of the [[Generation I|Gen. I]] sprites we have are all wrong. All sprites should face the viewer, and most of the Gen. I sprites fail to do that. I fixed a lot of them in early October, and I want to help with the rest.
* {{u|ShinjiLover}}
* {{u|jigglyppuff8}} - Adding missing sprites.
* {{u|Stephen93}} - Don't worry, I finally have it downpat! Helping with resizes and transparencies from Generations I and II, as well as uploading Gen. II sprites that are missing altogether.

* {{u|Gallevoir}}
* {{u|Smoochum}} - will do what i can

===Structure===
Much of this project's work will involve the [[a:Main Page|Bulbagarden Archives]]. Please make sure you know how to upload and replace images properly before doing so.

====Regular Pokémon sprites====
The correct format to categorize regular Pokémon sprites (the ones starting with "Spr") is as follows:
<nowiki>== Summary ==
{{gamesprite|Dex|Name|Sprite type|Game(s)|The additional S for "versions", if applies}}
== Licensing: ==
{{i-Fairuse-sprite-game}}</nowiki>
* Dex is the National Pokédex number for the Pokémon.
* Name is the English name for the Pokémon, or if the English name of the Pokémon is not known yet, this is the name the Pokémon article at Bulbapedia has.
* Sprite type tells what kind of sprite it is. There are several different types, which are as follows:
** all - This one goes for every regular sprite of Generations I to III, and for those regular sprites that apply to both genders in Generation IV.
** shiny - This is for sprites of {{shiny2}} sprites with no gender differences.
** male - This is for Generation IV sprites' male versions.
** shiny male - The above one with shininess.
** female - The same as above, only with female versions.
** shiny female - You can guess this one.
* Game(s) are the versions the sprite is from, for example "Platinum" or "FireRed and LeafGreen".
* Add an S to the last parameter, if you put paired games to the Game(s) part. Otherwise you may omit the last parameter.

If the sprite is used in multiple games (counting paired games as one game), put one copy of the gamesprite template for each of the games.

If the sprite is animated PNG, add the <tt><nowiki>{{anipng}}</nowiki></tt> template to the description.

====Goals====
# To provide sprites of every Pokémon for every [[Generation]]
# To change all nontransparent sprites to transparent
# To make sure each sprite is correct in terms of size, orientation, etc.

[[User:UltimateSephiroth/Sprites|This page]] can be used to check which ones are missing, incorrect, or non-transparent.
WARNING! The link above contains thousands of images, so make sure your browser can handle the loading.

====Other templates====
* {{Template|Project SpriteDex notice}} - This template may be posted when sprite work is completed on an article, but it is not required.
{{Project SpriteDex notice}}

* {{Template|User Project SpriteDex}} - This template is for project participants to place in their user profile.
{{User Project SpriteDex}}

Bulbapedia:Project COD

2010-01-17T13:38:53Z

Smoochum: /* Participants */

[[Image:Project COD logo.png|right|200px]]
Some Bulbapedia members have formed a [[Bulbapedia:Project|project]] to better organize efforts to write and improve articles about '''characters of the day'''. If you would like to help, please inquire on the [[{{NAMESPACE}} talk:{{PAGENAME}}|talk page]] or the [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/forumdisplay.php?f=195 Bulbapedia forum] and see the [[Bulbapedia:Project COD/To-do list]]. Also note [[Bulbapedia:Project COD/Article notes]].

==Project COD==
===Scope and aims===
Project COD covers all articles about one-time characters in the Pokémon anime.

Its aim is to create articles on every character who has been the focus of an anime episode.

===Participants===
To join the project, simply add your name to the bottom of this list:

* {{u|Alexa9966}}
* {{u|BKG201}}
* {{u|Mewthree}}
* {{u|PAK Man}}
* {{u|Paperfairy}}
* {{u|ElectAbuzzzz}}

* {{u|PokeChar}}
* {{u|CutestPikachuEver}}
* {{u|hippocampus}}
* {{u|BAC510}}
* {{u|Smoochum}}

===Structure===
Articles need not be long but should at least contain a few paragraphs.

The opening sentence should follow this structure:
<nowiki>'''(Character)''' is a is a one-time character in the Pokémon anime who appeared in the</nowiki> <nowiki>episode ''[[(Episode code)|(Episode title)]]''</nowiki>
The opening paragraph should then continue to give any basic information about the character, including their voice actor in the English and Japanese versions.

The second paragraph should give a detailed description, including their personality and any information that is provided in the episode. This should be taken from the perspective of their situation at the start of the episode.

The third paragraph should give a brief description of their role in the episode including any character development undergone.

After the text, a list of the character's Pokémon should be added where appropriate:
<nowiki>==Pokémon==
* {{p|(Pokémon)}}</nowiki>

Don't forget to categorize any new pages:
<nowiki>[[Category:Characters of the day]]</nowiki>
If the character has a surname, categorize it as such:
<nowiki>[[Category:Characters of the day|(Surname), (Other names)]]</nowiki>

===Goals===
# Identify characters deserving of articles on Bulbapedia.
# Create articles on each character.
# Ensure the project's standards are in place on each article.

===Infoboxes===

Infoboxes are not to be used on COD articles.

===Other templates===
* {{Template|Project COD notice}} - To be used at the bottom of each character of the day article.
{{Project COD notice}}

* {{Template|User Project COD}} - For project participants to place in their user profile.

'''Goldeen''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''トサキント''' ''Tosakinto'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Seaking}} starting at [[level]] 33.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Goldeen is a white fish Pokémon with orange markings on its tail, fins and along the top of its body. Goldeen's tail fin is admired by many for its beauty as it billows very much like a ballroom dress. Goldeen has a large horn on its forehead.
====Gender differences====
A female has a smaller horn.

====Special abilities====
Goldeen's large and dangerous horn is its main weapon. Although not known as an aggressive Pokémon, people swimming in waters that Goldeen are known to inhabit should be wary of being rammed.
===Behavior===
Goldeen can be seen swimming upstream in large schools during the breeding season in spring. Goldeen swims at a steady speed of five knots. Goldeen love to frolic and dance in bodies of water and dislike being kept in captivity. A Goldeen in an aquarium will use its powerful horn to smash its way to freedom.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Water's-edge Pokémon|Water's-edge Pokémon]]]]
Goldeen are a very common sight in any body of fresh water.

===Diet===
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Misty_goldeen.jpg|right|thumb|{{TP|Misty|Goldeen}} in the anime]]
===Major Appearances===
====[[Misty's Goldeen]]====
[[Misty's Goldeen]] first appeared in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]''.

====Other====

===Minor Appearances===
A Goldeen appeared in ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]'' under the ownership of {{an|Daisy}}.

Another Goldeen appeared in ''[[EP012|Here Comes the Squirtle Squad]]''. [[Ash's Squirtle|A Squirtle]] knocked {{AP|Pikachu}} into a lake which angered the Goldeen. It proceeded to attack Pikachu with a {{m|Horn Attack}} which severely injured it.

[[Juan]] has a Goldeen that appeared in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate!]]''.

A Goldeen appeared in ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]''.

A group of Goldeen appeared in ''[[DP138|Strategy Begins at Home!]]''.

A group of Goldeen were used at a stall run by [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]''.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Goldeen (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[Image:GoldeenBrawl.jpg|right|thumb|Goldeen in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Goldeen will use {{m|Splash}}, having no effect on the battle.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Goldeen will use {{m|Splash}}, having no effect on the battle.

Goldeen is also a Pokéfloat. It will appear from the bottom of the screen but quickly drop down to the bottom again, K.O.ing any character it hits.

====Trophy information====
These Water-types are often referred to as "water dancers," as their elegant fins make them incredible agile underwater. They can even travel upstream in rapids at a speed of five knots; of course, they're not quite as nimble on dry land. Goldeen's {{M|Horn Drill}} is so strong that it can KO an enemy with one strike if it connects.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Goldeen will sometimes be found in a Poké Ball and will use {{m|Splash}} when released. It still does nothing to affect the battle. On the official blog, Masahiro Sakurai commented that Goldeen appearing at the most critical of times is in keeping with {{wp|Murphy's Law}}.

==Trivia==
* Goldeen was originally going to be called "Gold''y''".
* Goldeen, as well as Seaking, has been in all regional [[Pokédex]]es.
* Goldeen's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto Pokédex]] is the same: 078. This makes it and its evolution family one of only five families of Pokémon (comprising twelve Pokémon altogether) to have the same numbers in more than one [[Pokédex]]-like listing.
* Goldeen and Seaking are the only two Pokémon that can learn {{m|Waterfall}} through [[level]] up.
* Goldeen has the same in-game cry as {{p|Caterpie}}.

===Origin===
It seems to be based on a {{wp|goldfish}}. The horn part may be based on Matsya, an avatar that the hindu god {{wp|Vishnu}} assumed, which is sometimes depicted as a fish with a horn.
====Name origin====
Goldeen's name may be a combination of ''goldfish'' and ''queen''. Its Japanese name stems from とさきん ''tosakin'', a kind of goldfish.

*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Poissirène - From ''poisson'' (fish) and ''sirène'' ({{wp|siren}}).

'''Goldeen''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''トサキント''' ''Tosakinto'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Seaking}} starting at [[level]] 33.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Goldeen is a white fish Pokémon with orange markings on its tail, fins and along the top of its body. Goldeen's tail fin is admired by many for its beauty as it billows very much like a ballroom dress. Goldeen has a large horn on its forehead.
====Gender differences====
A female has a smaller horn.

====Special abilities====
Goldeen's large and dangerous horn is its main weapon. Although not known as an aggressive Pokémon, people swimming in waters that Goldeen are known to inhabit should be wary of being rammed.
===Behavior===
Goldeen can be seen swimming upstream in large schools during the breeding season in spring. Goldeen swims at a steady speed of five knots. Goldeen love to frolic and dance in bodies of water and dislike being kept in captivity. A Goldeen in an aquarium will use its powerful horn to smash its way to freedom.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Water's-edge Pokémon|Water's-edge Pokémon]]]]
Goldeen are a very common sight in any body of fresh water.

===Diet===
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Misty_goldeen.jpg|right|thumb|{{TP|Misty|Goldeen}} in the anime]]
===Major Appearances===
====[[Misty's Goldeen]]====
[[Misty's Goldeen]] first appeared in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]''.

====Other====

===Minor Appearances===
A Goldeen appeared in ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]'' under the ownership of '''[[Daisy (anime)]]'''.

Another Goldeen appeared in ''[[EP012|Here Comes the Squirtle Squad]]''. [[Ash's Squirtle|A Squirtle]] knocked {{AP|Pikachu}} into a lake which angered the Goldeen. It proceeded to attack Pikachu with a {{m|Horn Attack}} which severely injured it.

[[Juan]] has a Goldeen that appeared in ''[[AG110|The Great Eight Fate!]]''.

A Goldeen appeared in ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]''.

A group of Goldeen appeared in ''[[DP138|Strategy Begins at Home!]]''.

A group of Goldeen were used at a stall run by [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in ''[[DP140|Historical Mystery Tour!]]''.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Goldeen (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[Image:GoldeenBrawl.jpg|right|thumb|Goldeen in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Goldeen will use {{m|Splash}}, having no effect on the battle.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Goldeen will use {{m|Splash}}, having no effect on the battle.

Goldeen is also a Pokéfloat. It will appear from the bottom of the screen but quickly drop down to the bottom again, K.O.ing any character it hits.

====Trophy information====
These Water-types are often referred to as "water dancers," as their elegant fins make them incredible agile underwater. They can even travel upstream in rapids at a speed of five knots; of course, they're not quite as nimble on dry land. Goldeen's {{M|Horn Drill}} is so strong that it can KO an enemy with one strike if it connects.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Goldeen will sometimes be found in a Poké Ball and will use {{m|Splash}} when released. It still does nothing to affect the battle. On the official blog, Masahiro Sakurai commented that Goldeen appearing at the most critical of times is in keeping with {{wp|Murphy's Law}}.

Goldeen's name may be a combination of ''goldfish'' and ''queen''. Its Japanese name stems from とさきん ''tosakin'', a kind of goldfish.

'''Primeape''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オコリザル''' ''Okorizaru'') is a {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Mankey}} starting at [[level]] 28.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Primeape has a round body covered in whitish, messy fur. Primeape's ears are triangular with pink insides, its arms and legs are colored brown and the tail it had as a [[Mankey (Pokemon)|Mankey]] has dissappeared. Primeape has metal shackles on its wrists and ankles; this is probably indicative of a method of training with weights. The forepaws seem to resemble boxing gloves, alluding to its nature as a {{type2|Fighting}} [[Pokémon]].
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Primeape's abilities are similar to those of its pre-evolution, {{p|Mankey}}, only stronger. When Primeape becomes furious, its blood circulation is boosted. In turn, Primeape's muscles are made even stronger. However, it also becomes much less intelligent at the same time. Since Primeape is a fully evolved Pokémon, it is capable of using {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===
Primeape are easily angered. Even the slightest glance of eye contact will make it furious. If approached while asleep, it may awaken and angrily give chase in a groggy state of semi-sleep. A Primeape will chase anyone that makes it upset and won't give up until it catches it quarry.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Primeape can be found in vibrant forests or in mountains.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
They seem to have an affinity with the [[Payapa Berry]], since they are sometimes found with it.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Ash's Primeape.png|right|thumb|210px|{{AP|Primeape}} in the anime]]
===Major Appearances===
====[[Ash's Primeape]]====
In ''[[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]]'', a Mankey steals [[Ash's hat]]. Later in the episode, thanks to Team Rocket, Mankey gets angry and evolves into a Primeape. {{AP|Ash's Charmander|Charizard}} battles the Primeape and Ash catches it.

====Other====
In ''[[EP233|A Tyrogue Full of Trouble]]'', a Primeape was causing problems for a small town along with a {{p|Mankey}} and a {{p|Tyrogue}}. A {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Kiyo]] was able to capture the Tyrogue, and the Mankey and Primeape joined up with him.

===Minor Appearances===
''[[EP173|Wobbu-palooza]]'' featured a Primeape belonging to a [[Wobbuffet Festival crashers|Festival Crasher]].

[[Butch]] of [[Team Rocket]] has a Primeape.

==In the manga==
[[File:PrimapeSpecial.png|thumb|right|Primeape in ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'']][[Chuck]] owns a Primeape, seen in {{PAV|10}} working out with him and his {{p|Poliwrath}}. Together with Poliwrath, it used {{m|DynamicPunch}} to reveal {{p|Suicune}}'s presence in the ocean off the [[Cianwood City|Cianwood]] coast.

==Trivia==
* It is capable of learning {{m|Iron Tail}} despite not having a visible tail. This may likely be due to the fact that Mankey (its pre-evolution) has a tail.
* Primeape can learn {{m|Scratch}} and {{m|Fury Swipes}} despite lacking any claws.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, Primeape is one of the few Pokémon not in the Sinnoh Dex, and not introduced in Generation IV, to have a new sprite. {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Oddish}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Ninetales}}, {{p|Muk}}, and {{p|Registeel}} are the others.
* Dispite numerous Pokédex entries stating that it "beats up" foes, it is unable to learn the move Beat Up except by breeding.
===Origin===
Considering its pig-like nose, its coloring, and tendency to fly into a rage if eye contact is made, Primeape has much in common with {{wp|baboon}}s.
====Name origin====
Primeape's name may be a combination of ''prime'' and ''{{wp|ape}}''. It is also likely that its name is a play on the word ''{{wp|primate}}''. Its Japanese name can be taken to mean 怒り猿, angry monkey.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Rasaff - From ''rasend'' (raging) and ''Affe'' (monkey).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Colossinge - From ''colosse'' ({{wp|Colossus of Rhodes|colossus}}) and ''singe'' (monkey).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 성원숭 ''Seongwonsung''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan and Hong Kong)]]: 火爆猴 - Literally "fire explosive monkey".

Smoochum: /* Trivia */

[[Image:Chiaki Chinatsu.jpg|thumb|Kylie and Roman]]
'''Kylie''' (Japanese: '''チナツ''' ''Chinatsu'') is one of the [[characters of the day]] in ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]'' of the [[Pokémon anime]]. She is voiced by 高垣彩陽 ''Ayahi Takagaki'' in Japanese and [[Bella Hudson]] in English.

She appeared along with her fiancé, [[Roman]], who owns the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]] on the [[Valor Lakefront]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s must {{pkmn|battle}} her and her fiancé in a [[double battle]] in order to eat in the restaurant for free.

Kylie and Roman first battled with {{Ash}} and [[Brock]] and were both easily defeated. Then they were to battle {{an|May}} and {{an|Dawn}}. But before they could start, [[Team Rocket]] broke in the restaurant and stole all the {{pkmn|food}}.

Kylie tried to use her {{p|Munchlax}} to help [[May's Munchlax]] locate the the missing food but it seemed to be thrown off easily.

After May and Dawn dealt with Team Rocket, Kylie and Roman started their battle with May and Dawn. After putting up a good fight, they were defeated.

==In the games==
A character named Kylie also appears at the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. However, the game Kylie's Japanese name is ココ ''Coco'' and her Pokémon are different, meaning Kylie in the anime was at the most inspired by Kylie in the game and is not the same character. In the games also, Kylie and Roman's father is the owner/chef of the restaurant.

* Kylie's Japanese name contains ''natsu'' meaning summer. Her fiancé's Japanese name contains ''aki'' meaning autumn.
* Kylie tends to use English phrases in the Japanese version such as ''Wonderful!'' and ''Nice idea!''.
* Despite being a beautiful older female, Brock does not show romantic interest for her.
* Both Kylie and Roman resemble the [[Lady]] and [[Rich Boy]] [[trainer classes]], respectively.
* [http://www.pokemon.com/#tvmovies_1122 Pokémon.com's summary for the episode] mentions Kylie as '''Charlene''', probably meaning it was an initially planned name for her.

'''Ritchie''' (also ''Richie'', Japanese: '''ヒロシ''' ''Hiroshi'') is a nominally recurring {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}.

He is named after [[Hiroshi Yamauchi]], former President of Nintendo. His Japanese name means "far and wide" (溥), while his English name is a diminutive for Richard, which is generally agreed to mean "brave power" in Germanic (from the elements ''ric'' "power, rule, ruler" and ''hard'' "brave, hardy").

Ritchie is often seen as a clone of [[Ash Ketchum]] because all of his Pokémon relate to some of the Pokémon that Ash owns, or owned at one point ([[Sparky]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]], [[Zippo]] and [[Ash's Charizard]], {{p|Butterfree|Happy}} and [[Ash's Butterfree]], {{p|Taillow|Rose}} and [[Ash's Swellow]], and {{p|Pupitar|Cruise}} and [[Ash's Larvitar]]).

==In the anime==
Ritchie first appeared in ''[[EP078|A Friend In Deed]]'' and quickly befriended his fellow [[Indigo Plateau Conference|Pokémon League]] competitor, [[Ash Ketchum]]. This led to problems in the next episode, ''[[EP079|Friend or Foe Alike]]'', since the two were matched up to battle against each other. Ritchie won the match, since at the very end [[Ash's Charizard]] refused to fight [[Sparky]] and took a nap on the battlefield instead. Even though he lost in the next match to [[Assunta]], he made it to the Top 8 position in the league.

Ritchie showed up again in the anime when Ash and {{ashfr|co.}} visited the [[Whirl Islands]], starting in ''[[EP220|The Mystery is History]]''. He was searching for a mysterious [[Pokémon]] that can be found there, which turned out to be a {{p|Lugia}}.

He also appeared in three [[Pokémon Chronicles]] episodes; ''[[H008|Oaknapped]]'', ''[[H013|Celebi and Joy]]'' and ''[[H018|The Search for the Legend]]''. The second of these makes him one of at least two notable characters to travel through time with the aid of {{p|Celebi}}, the other character being [[Sammy Oak]]. {{an|May}} also traveled back in time in ''[[AG157|Time Warp Heals All Wounds]]'', but with an item other than a Celebi.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Ritchie's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:

{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=yes|nick=Sparky|Ritchie|Pikachu|{{electric color}}|SparkyRitchie.jpg|Sparky is Ritchie's main Pokémon, a {{p|Pikachu}}. It is distinguished from other Pikachu by a scruff of hair on the top of its head.}}

{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|nick=Happy|Ritchie|Butterfree|{{bug color}}|Ritchie's Butterfree.jpg|Happy (Japanese: '''パピー''' ''Papi'') is Ritchie's {{p|Butterfree}}. It made its first appearance in ''[[EP078|A Friend in Deed]]''. After Ritchie and {{Ash}} had foiled [[Team Rocket]]'s plan to steal the Pokémon of everyone competing in the [[Pokémon League]], the van they were driving was about to go over a cliff. Ash and Ritchie decided to use their Pokémon to help them land safely. Ash used his {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}}, while Ritchie sent out Happy. Thanks to their Pokémon, the two Trainers were able to land safely.

Happy also appeared in ''[[EP079|Friend and Foe Alike]]'' during Ash and Ritchie's battle at the [[Indigo Plateau]]. It was up against [[Ash's Squirtle]]. It easily defeated the {{t|Water}}-type by using {{m|Sleep Powder}}, which caused Squirtle to become disqualified. Happy was then defeated by [[Ash's Pikachu]] using its {{m|ThunderShock}}.

Happy was last seen in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]'' during Ritchie's battle with [[Assunta]]. It was seen battling with her {{p|Venomoth}}. It hasn't been seen or mentioned since that episode.

Its voice actress in both English and Japanese is ''[[Rikako Aikawa]]''.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|nick=Cruise|Ritchie|Pupitar|{{rock color}}|Cruise.jpg|Cruise (Japanese: '''クルーズ''') is Ritchie's {{p|Pupitar}}. It first appeared in ''[[EP220|The Mystery is History]]''. [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] were attempting to steal [[Silver (Johto)|a baby Lugia]], but {{Ash}} and Ritchie refused to let that happen. To stop them, Ritchie sent out his Pupitar. It was very strong in battle, and it caused the two [[Team Rocket]] members to retreat.

Ritchie also used Cruise in ''[[EP222|A Promise is a Promise]]''. Butch and Cassidy were once again trying to prevent the kids from rescuing Silver and its mother. Ritchie called upon Cruise to take care of them and the other [[Rocket Grunt]]s in the area. After it defeated them, Cruise helped Ash and [[Misty]] free Silver from its cage by tackling the bars after [[Ash's Cyndaquil]], {{AP|Totodile}} and [[Misty's Poliwhirl]] had weakened them.

Its English voice actor is [[Eric Stuart]].}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|nick=Rose|Ritchie|Taillow|{{flying color}}|Ritchie taillow.JPG|Rose (Japanese: '''ローズ''') is Ritchie's {{p|Taillow}}. It first appeared in ''[[H008|Oaknapped]]''.

Tracey commented that {{Ash}} also has a {{AP|Taillow}}, and Ritchie replied that Ash and him tend to catch a lot of the same Pokémon (referring to their {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Charmeleon}} and {{p|Butterfree}}).

Its English voice actress is [[Kayzie Rogers]] and its Japanese voice actress is ''[[Chinami Nishimura]]''.}}

Ritchie had at least 3 other Pokémon during [[Indigo League]] competition. It is uncertain which ones belonged to him. However, the beginning scene in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]'' narrowed the situation a bit. Pokémon that could possibly belong to Ritchie presented in this scene include {{p|Spearow}} and {{p|Tentacool}}.

* He shares three notable traits with Professor Oak. Both traveled through time with the aid of a {{p|Celebi}}, while both, as of the last known appearance of their Pokémon, have a {{p|Charmeleon}}, and they both share the same [[Tara Jayne|English voice actress]] (when Oak was younger).
* Despite changes in the [[Pokédex]]'s design, Ritchie continues to use the oldest model as of the last episode it was seen in.
* Much like {{Gary|Shigeru}} and {{Ash|Satoshi}} are default names for {{ga|Blue|the rival}} in {{2v2|Red|Green}}, respectively (being a default for {{ga|Red|the player}} in the opposite version), Hiroshi is a default name for the rival in {{v2|Blue| (Japanese)}}.
*He is the only rival to nickname his Pokémon.
*Ritchie's outfit features the colors [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|green]] and [[Pokémon Yellow Version|yellow]], while Ash's clothes are predominantly [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|red]] and [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|blue]].

Kylie

Smoochum: /* Trivia */

[[Image:Chiaki Chinatsu.jpg|thumb|Kylie and Roman]]
'''Kylie''' (Japanese: '''チナツ''' ''Chinatsu'') is one of the [[characters of the day]] in ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]'' of the [[Pokémon anime]]. She is voiced by 高垣彩陽 ''Ayahi Takagaki'' in Japanese and [[Bella Hudson]] in English.

She appeared along with her fiancé, [[Roman]], who owns the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]] on the [[Valor Lakefront]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s must {{pkmn|battle}} her and her fiancé in a [[double battle]] in order to eat in the restaurant for free.

Kylie and Roman first battled with {{Ash}} and [[Brock]] and were both easily defeated. Then they were to battle {{an|May}} and {{an|Dawn}}. But before they could start, [[Team Rocket]] broke in the restaurant and stole all the {{pkmn|food}}.

Kylie tried to use her {{p|Munchlax}} to help [[May's Munchlax]] locate the the missing food but it seemed to be thrown off easily.

After May and Dawn dealt with Team Rocket, Kylie and Roman started their battle with May and Dawn. After putting up a good fight, they were defeated.

==In the games==
A character named Kylie also appears at the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. However, the game Kylie's Japanese name is ココ ''Coco'' and her Pokémon are different, meaning Kylie in the anime was at the most inspired by Kylie in the game and is not the same character. In the games also, Kylie and Roman's father is the owner/chef of the restaurant.

'''Jessie''' (Japanese: '''ムサシ''' ''Musashi'') is one member of of the [[Team Rocket]] trio also consisting of [[James]] and {{MTR}}, that follows around {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|friends}} in the [[Pokémon anime]], usually trying to steal [[Ash's Pikachu]], but always failing.

==In the anime==
{{incomplete|section}}
===Character===
[[image:DPJessie.png|left|thumb|280px|Jessie]]
Jessie's mother, [[Miyamoto]], was a high-ranking Team Rocket agent. When Jessie was around the age of three, Miyamoto left on a mission to the {{wp|Andes}} to record the voice of the elusive Pokémon {{p|Mew}}. However, after Miyamoto disappeared, Jessie was put into a foster home which had very little money. There were times when she had no choice but to eat snow because of a lack of more nourishing food.

When she was old enough, she left home to become a Pokémon nurse in [[Johto]]. However, the school she was enrolled in was literally for ''Pokémon'' nurses (i.e. {{p|Chansey}}), so she failed to graduate and left, leaving behind a [[Nurse Joy's Blissey|Chansey]] she had befriended there. In the episode ''[[EP129|Ignorance is Blissey]]'', Jessie was reunited with that same Chansey, which had since evolved into a {{p|Blissey}}. It is assumed that she then traveled back to [[Kanto]], where she enrolled in [[Pokémon Tech]], a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s school, she met [[James]], and subsequently failed and dropped out. After this, Jessie and James joined a bicycle gang in [[Sunny Town]], where Jessie was known for swinging a chain above her head as she rode her bike, acquiring the nickname "Chainer Jess".

Due to conflicts in canon between Kanto and Johto episodes and the special episode ''[[H012|Training Daze]]'', what happened between Jessie and James after the bike gang is unknown. What ''is'' known, as shown in the special episode, is that they joined Team Rocket separately and were on initially unfriendly terms after being grouped with {{MTR}} but they quickly made up and became good friends.
[[File:Jessie hair.png|thumb|Jessie after beating up her Seviper for biting off her hair|220px]]
Sometime before joining Team Rocket, and it is not known when, Jessie obtained a [[Contest Pass]] in the [[Hoenn]] region. Also during the years before Team Rocket, she had several boyfriends, all of whom left her and/or treated her badly. In ''[[EP234|Xatu the Future]]'', she revealed that she had once worked at a T.V. station as the weathergirl. In ''[[AG156|From Cradle to Save]]'', it was revealed that she once was a ninja. In [[Crossing Paths]], it was revealed that she had a crush on a boy she had gone to school with named [[Astin]], who has a current-day counterpart [[Austin|with a similar name]].

She has a long-standing bitter rivalry with [[Cassidy]], another member of Team Rocket. And Team Rocket member {{an|Wendy}} held a grudge against Jessie for failing to pay for a drink (making Wendy pay), but got her revenge when she added the charge to Jessie's overall Team Rocket bill.

Jessie seems to have a special preference for snake-like Pokémon, owning both an {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and a {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. In ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké Showdown]]'', she expressed a preference for {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon in general.

It is revealed in [[EP048|Holy Matrimony!]] that Jessie is almost identical in appearance to James's fiancée, [[Jessiebelle]], with the two of them having virtually identical faces and only noticeable physical differences between them being eye color, hairstyle, and slightly different hair colors. Meowth in particular takes notice of this and frequently reminds Jessie of the fact throughout the episode, something she takes strong offense to due to Jessiebelle's reprehensible personality. Interestingly enough by the time the subject of Jessiebelle is breached again in [[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]] she seems to have forgotten about her doppelganger and needs Meowth to remind her of who she is. The resemblance between the two was further explored in [[DP153]] when she disguised herself as Jessiebelle in order to grant herself, James, and Meowth, entrance one of James's family mansions without James having to do so himself.

Jessie is also known to be very vain and is also prone to explosive anger. She values her appearance, and she can get furious when her face or hair is damaged, such as in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]'', ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile!]]'' and ''[[AG008|A Tail with a Twist]]''. When this happens, she may do things like beat up a Pokémon such as {{MTR}} or her {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. Furthermore, Jessie goes into a violent outrage whenever someone insults her beauty by calling her old, such as the episode ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'' when [[Misty]] calls Jessie an "old hag" (Japanese: ''oba-san''). She spitted fire in extreme anger after Misty called her that name in that episode. She is also angered (compared to her companions, who are usually depressed when they fail at something) when missions are either failed or botched, which is a regular thing. This anger was intensely demonstrated in the Indigo League, Orange Islands and part of the Johto League story arcs. However, her anger tantrums started to become less intense over the next two story arcs, and her anger has always appeared far more intense in the dub than in the original, which is a contrast of Lillis's vocal performance to Hayashibara's.

Starting in [[Hoenn]], Jessie became a [[Pokémon Coordinator]], entering every contest that she could. She frequently made it to the battle round, but usually lost there. However, in ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith]]'', she finally succeeded in winning an (unofficial) contest by using [[Ash's Aipom]], which she had saved earlier in the episode. And, in ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', she won an official contest with her Dustox at [[Solaceon Town]]. Later in ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist]]'', she won a ribbon with help of her Yanmega. She has [[Contest Pass]]es to compete in the Hoenn, Kanto, and Sinnoh regions.

In the Kanto contests, Jessie [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] herself as ''Jessebella'' (Japanese: '''ムサぴょん''' ''Musa-pyon'') wearing a red dress and glasses. Eventually, Ash, Brock, Max and May found out her true identity in the last contest.
[[File:Jessalina.png|thumb|left|220px|Jessie disguised as Jessalina]]
During the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], Jessie dressed up as ''Jessadia'' (Japanese: '''プリティ・ムサリン''' ''Pretty Musalin'') and wore glasses, long white socks, a yellow and orange dress, and had her hair in pigtails. She worked there as an announcer and [[Lilian Meridian]]'s assistant; Lilian herself said she did not really like "Jessadia"'s style, but recognized her talent.
[[File:Jessadia.png|thumb|As Jessadia]]
In Sinnoh {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s, Jessie disguised herself as ''Jessalina'' (Japanese: '''キャンディ・ムサリーナ''' ''Candy Musalina''), using big glasses and an orange dress. She was notable for the fact that, in the appeals round of a contest, Jessie tended to use her Pokémon to show herself off, rather than showing them off. In the Latin American dub, she entered Super Contests under the name Jessiebella (referencing Jessiebelle again).

In ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' and ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' she once again used her Jessadia disguise to report on the [[Wallace Cup]].

Although Jessie entered mostly every contest in Hoenn and Kanto, she lost in all of them, whether it was the first match of the Battle Rounds or the finals. However, in the Sinnoh region, so far she has won two ribbons herself using her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, and obtained a third ribbon after James won a contest in her place.

She's also used other aliases to disguise herself under, such as ''Jessilinda'' during her time at the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] and ''Jessilynlyn'' while competing in the [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]]. Against [[Marilyn]] in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]'', she used the alias ''Jessirilyn''.

===Pokémon===
As with the standards set by the Team Rocket organization, Jessie initially started off with mainly {{type2|Poison}}s. However, as the anime continued onward, her team has diversified. However, she is still strongly associated with Poison-type serpentine Pokémon, such as Arbok and Seviper. Most of her other Pokémon tend to be unusual in appearance and don't usually fit the general image of "cute". However, she does display a desire to obtain Pokémon that are considered "adorable" when the opportunity presents itself, especially feminine Pokémon such as {{p|Happiny}} or {{p|Smoochum}}. Her attraction towards Smoochum is actually shown in several episodes, such as ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby]]'' and ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]''. She was also attracted to a {{p|Weavile}} in ''[[AG185|Duels of the Jungle!]]''. Occasionally, she manages to take control of some powerful Pokémon, but due to either inexperience or hubris, this often backfires and loses control of them. She doesn't appear to train her Pokémon that often. Instead, they are often used to fight against Ash and his friends. When she enters contests, she tends to involve herself in her Pokémon's appeals. She is also very fond of {{p|Dratini}}, as evidenced in [[EP035]] and ''[[EP252|Fangs For Nothin!]]''.

==In the games==
==={{game|Yellow}}===
Both Jessie and James appear in Pokémon Yellow as in-game bosses. They first attack the main character in [[Mt. Moon]], while trying to take one of the rare [[fossil]]s uncovered there.

Later, in [[Celadon City]]'s [[Rocket Game Corner]], Jessie and James guard Giovanni's room in the Team Rocket base. During that time, as the player runs into them, they are eager for revenge after the main character busted up their plans at Mt. Moon.

They hold Mr. Fuji hostage at [[Pokémon Tower]]. They attack the {{ga|Red|main character}} on the seventh floor.

Finally, at [[Silph Co.]] in [[Saffron City]], Jessie and James make their final appearance, once again trying to stall the main character from reaching [[Giovanni|their Boss]].

Unlike in the anime, Jessie and James do not follow the main character around and come up with their usual evil plans to capture Pikachu.

===Pokémon Puzzle League===
Along with many other anime characters, both Jessie and James appeared in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]].

==In the TCG==
Jessie and James appear on both versions of the card {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Here Comes Team Rocket!|15}}, which originally released in the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} set; it was re-released with different artwork in {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}}. In that expansion, there was also a preconstructed [[Theme Deck]] based on {{TCG|Jessie}}. 

==In the manga==
{{incomplete|section}}
===[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]===
Jessie and James both made an appearance in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}, which was based off of the anime.

While Jessie's role in the Pokémon anime has not yet ended, in this manga, she ended up [[RocketShipping|married to James]] and having a baby on the way.

==Trivia==
* Both Jessie and [[James]] have used a {{p|Charizard}} at separate times. They used a third one together as well. None of the three remained in their care, however.
[[Image:Jessie's_Lure.jpg‎|Jessie's special lure|thumb]]
* In Sinnoh, she dressed up as a cowgirl and she was called Catherine Jessieburn. This is a direct reference to the legendary Hollywood actress {{wp|Katharine Hepburn}}.
* Jessie is currently the only member of the anime's main cast who is traveling with a Pokémon not in the extended Sinnoh Pokédex. In fact, she has two; {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} and {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}.
* Much like [[Misty's special lure|Misty's]], Jessie also has a special lure being modeled after her, like seen in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]''.
* In ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom!]]'', Jessie had {{wp|sinusitis}}.
* In the main series games, Jessie and [[James]] are the only characters from [[Generation I]] to appear only in that generation, as they do not reappear in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] when [[Kanto]] is revisited, and (being exclusive to [[Pokémon Yellow Version|Pokémon Yellow]]) were not adapted into the [[Generation III]] [[Pokémon_FireRed_and_LeafGreen_Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]] remakes.
* Jessie's hair color changed from red to magenta in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin at You, Elekid]]''. This was because this episode was the first to feature digital colored animation, and was possibly due to Jessie's updated Sugimori artwork featuring magenta hair. In all the hand-colored cel animated episodes before the latter, Jessie's hair color was red.
* Jessie is currently the only main character whose Pokémon on hand are all fully evolved.
* All of Jessie's Pokémon which have a confirmed gender are female, these Pokémon being {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}} and {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} both of which are are based on insects.

===Name origin===
[[File:Jessie and James.png|thumb|200px|James and Jessie]]
Jessie's English name is taken from {{wp|Jesse James}}, an American outlaw. Her Japanese name, Musashi, is taken from 宮本武蔵 ''{{wp|Miyamoto Musashi}}'', a famous Japanese swordsman. In his most famous duel, he defeated his rival, 佐々木小次郎 ''{{wp|Sasaki Kojirō}}'', after whom James got his Japanese name. However, one can argue that she is also named after the Japanese battleship {{wp|Musashi}}, as her rival [[Cassidy]]'s Japanese name is based off of the Japanese battleship {{wp|Yamato}}.

She is based on a combination of [[Takeshi Shudō]]'s old girlfriend from when he was in school and the female antagonist of the ''[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1472 Time Bokan]'' anime series.

'''Ash's Gliscor''' (Japanese: '''サトシのグライオン''' ''Satoshi's Glion'') is the fourth Pokémon {{pkmn2|caught|caught}} by [[Ash Ketchum]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region. 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.

==History==
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.

[[Image:Ash's Gligar.png|thumb|left|210px|As a Gligar, with Ash]]
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.

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.

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.

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}}.

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}}.

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. Ash then left Gliscor with Mitsuzō for further training.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Ash riding Gliscor.png|220px|Gliscor carrying Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}}|thumb|right]]
* Gliscor, [[Dawn's Mamoswine]] and [[Dawn's Cyndaquil]] are the only Pokémon that were in the parties of Ash and his friends during the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} that aren't in the original [[Sinnoh Pokédex]]. [[Jessie]], however, has {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}, {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, two of which aren't even in the extended Sinnoh Pokédex.
* Gligar's means of capture was similar to [[Ash's Squirtle]], in that it was part of a group of Pokémon of its species causing trouble for a town, joined because it wanted to go with Ash, filled Ash's [[party]] with six members, and was captured shortly before Ash met up with the region's third [[Gym Leader]].
* Gligar was the fourth Pokémon caught by Ash to debut with no revealed attacks, after {{AP|Krabby|Kingler}}, {{AP|Muk}}, and {{AP|Tauros}}. Its battle debut wasn't until ''[[DP070|The Bells are Singing!]]'', revealing three attacks at once.
* In ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Gligar.
* ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]'', the episode in which Gligar evolved into Gliscor, first aired in Japan on the Thursday of the same week that the dub of ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change]]'', the episode in which Gligar is captured, first aired in the United States. The same thing happened to [[Dawn's Mamoswine|Dawn's Piloswine]].
* Gliscor is Ash's only Pokémon and the third of a main character's Pokémon to evolve via an item ({{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}}). The first one was [[Misty's Politoed]] ({{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|King's Rock}}) and the second was [[Brock's Ludicolo]] ({{evostone|Water Stone}}). Coincidentally, all these Pokémon evolved with items that belonged to someone else, and the Pokémon belong to the anime's original three protagonists. Additionally, each has happened during a different [[series]] of the anime.
* Gliscor now shares a trait with {{AP|Glalie}} as the Pokémon that filled up Ash's sixth party slot in [[Hoenn]] and Sinnoh, respectively, and evolving soon after. Coincidentally, they share their Japanese VA.
* As of [[DP154]], Gliscor became the third Pokémon {{Ash}} has left with someone for training.
**Also, Gliscor is the first Pokémon that he has left for training that wasn't introduced within the [[Generation I|1st Generation]].
* Gliscor has not used any offensive moves of its own types. It has, however, used the non-offensive {{m|Sand-Attack}}.
* Two of Ash's rivals have had one of Gligar's evolution stages. [[Morrison]] has a {{p|Gligar}}, while Paul has a {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}}.
* Gliscor is the first Pokémon Ash has put in training since {{TP|Ash|Charizard}} precisely 488 episodes prior to [[DP154]]

==In the anime==
[[Image:Winona anime.png|left|thumb|245px|left|Winona in the anime]]
Winona was the Gym Leader of the Fortree City Gym, and was also known as the most talented Flying-type user. She appeared in ''[[AG084|Who's Flying Now?]]'' and ''[[AG085|Sky High Gym Battle]]''.

When {{Ash}} first arrived at Fortree, she was away from the gym in order to help out in the [[Feather Carnival]], an annual festival where the whole city celebrates the Flying Pokémon. After getting scared by [[Brock]]'s "usual ways" and chasing [[Team Rocket]] off for trying to steal the {{type2|Flying}}s with her {{p|Skarmory}}, she battled Ash on the next day.

Winona used {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Pelipper}} and a {{shiny2}} {{p|Swellow}} against {{AP|Ash's Grovyle|Sceptile}}, {{AP|Pikachu}} and his own {{AP|Swellow}}. After a long battle, Ash won the Feather Badge from her.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Winona's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|Winona|Skarmory|{{flying color}}|AG084.png|Winona's giant {{p|Skarmory}} only appeared in the Feather Festival. Each time, it would bring a child and Winona on its back and fly around the festival, including {{an|May}} and [[Max]]. It was never seen in the Gym battle against Ash.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|Winona|Altaria|{{flying color}}|Winona's Altaria.png|The first Pokémon Winona used in the gym battle against Ash was her {{p|Altaria}}. With {{AP|Grovyle|Sceptile}}'s speed, Altaria's attack did not work again and again. Then finally, with a {{m|Leaf Blade}}, Altaria was defeated.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|Winona|Pelipper|{{flying color}}|Pelipper Steel Wing.PNG|Winona's {{p|Pelipper}} was the second Pokémon she used against Ash. Ash battled with {{AP|Pikachu}}, starting with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Pelipper countered with {{m|Steel Wing}} as a ground. Pelipper then used {{m|Hydro Pump}}, but its wing lost contact with the ground and Pikachu used its mistake to its advantage with a {{m|Thunder}} attack. Both Pelipper and Pikachu were knocked out.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|Winona|Swellow|{{flying color}}|Winona Swellow.png|The final Pokémon Winona used against Ash was her {{shiny2}} {{p|Swellow}}. It was shown to be a powerful battler, with powerful attacks like {{m|Aerial Ace}} and {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It defeated Ash's Grovyle easily and almost beat Ash's {{AP|Swellow}}, but with a little quick thinking on Ash's part, his Swellow was victorious, winning Ash the Feather Badge.

Winona's Swellow was the fifth shiny Pokémon to appear in the anime. To date, it is also the only shiny Pokémon owned by a Gym Leader. It is voiced by [[Darren Dunstan]] in English and [[Kōichi Sakaguchi]] in Japanese.}}

[[File:Wallace and Winona.png|thumb|right|250px|Winona and her Altaria (left) with Wallace and his Luvdisc (right)]]
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Winona is the supervisor of the [[Hoenn]] Gym Leaders, much as [[Erika]] is the leader of the [[Kanto]] Gym Leaders. Her job is to watch over all [[Hoenn]] Gym Leaders to ensure the gyms are running smoothly. She's apparently close to [[Flannery]], as the young [[Gym Leader]]'s judgment is enough to convince her that [[Team Magma]] is the side she should take in the {{pkmn|battle}} between Team Magma and [[Team Aqua]]. Later, she is convinced by [[Wallace]] to renounce her alliance, as both sides are up to no good.

When {{adv|Sapphire}} first battles and loses to Winona, Winona takes her under her wing and trains her. Because of this, Sapphire joins the Gym Leaders' fight against {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

She and [[Wallace]] apparently had some sort of [[GracefulShipping|relationship]] in the past, speculated by most fans to have been romantic. Although it is largely unconfirmed whether she still has feelings for him, it is quite obvious that [[Wallace]] still has feelings for her, based on the scene where the two say their goodbyes before they leave to fight {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} in {{PAV|20}}.

When Wallace attempted to battle [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]] single-handedly, Winona was held hostage by Archie's {{p|Tentacruel}}.

==Quotes==
''"I am Winona. I am the Leader of the Fortree Pokémon Gym. I have become one with Bird Pokémon and have soared the skies... However grueling the battle, we have triumphed with grace... Witness the elegant choreography of Bird Pokémon and I!"''

''"Never before have I seen a Trainer command Pokémon with more grace than I... In recognition of your prowess, I present to you this Gym Badge."''

Before and after the first rematch in {{v2|Emerald}}:

"''We humans can never escape gravity's pull on the ground. But by striving for excellence, we have the power to soar! You have scaled the pinnacles as the reigning Champion. Please, allow me to see your power at full flight!''"

"''I failed to reach your height again...''"

"''Even though I have lost, the wings of my heart remain unbroken. I can rise and soar again and yet again. I am convinced of it!''"
=== Trainer's Eyes ===
'''Strategy''' -
I take advantage of speed.

'''Trainer's Pokémon''' -
Graceful sky dancers

'''Self-Introduction''' -
I can see the ebb and flow of the winds.

==Trivia==
* In addition to being the only female in the [[Pokémon anime]] to own a {{shiny2}} Pokémon, Winona is the only [[Gym Leader]] to do so.
* Winona's {{p|Altaria}} in the games is underleveled; {{p|Swablu}} do not evolve until level 35.
* Winona and [[Byron]] are the only [[Gym Leader]]s in the {{pkmn|anime}} to own [[Giant Pokémon]], however Byron's was only a [[Fossil]]

'''Fantina's Drifblim''' (Japanese: '''メリッサフワライド''' ''Melissa's Fuwaride'') is one of [[Fantina]]'s Pokémon in the games and anime.
==In the anime==
[[Image:Drifloonfantina.jpg|thumb|left|As a {{p|Drifloon}}]]
Drifblim is Fantina's main Pokémon in the anime. It is the first Gym Leader's Pokémon (other than [[Misty]]'s and [[Brock]]'s) to be confirmed as being hatched from an {{pkmn|Egg}}.

It first appeared as a {{p|Drifloon}} in ''[[DP093|Playing The Leveling Field!]]''. Fantina used it in an unofficial battle against Ash, and it easily defeated his {{AP|Buizel}} (notably lifting it up in the air, despite Buizel's far greater weight) and put his {{AP|Chimchar}} to sleep. During Drifloon's battle against {{AP|Pikachu}}, it evolved into {{p|Drifblim}} and put Pikachu to sleep, forcing Ash to forfeit.

Ash officially challenged Fantina to a Gym battle in ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist!]]''. She called Drifblim out as her final Pokémon. It used {{m|Psychic}} to control {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} and make it rotate rapidly around its body, improving Ash's own shielding strategy he had tried to use against her. Another strategy it used was to come in close and grab the opponent, then executing {{m|Hypnosis}} at point-blank range. This proved to be very effective as it was quickly able to defeat both Pikachu and Buizel this way. In the final match, Ash's Chimchar was able to overpower and destroy Drifblim's shield, and ultimately defeated it, earning Ash the {{badge|Relic}}.

==In the games==
Unlike in the anime, Drifblim is not Fantina's main Pokémon in her battles; she doesn't even use her (even as a {{P|Drifloon}}) in her official Gym battle against the {{player}} in {{game|Platinum}}. However, she uses it in at least one battle in every game she has appeared in: {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. Notably, however, her Drifblim is her Pokémon of choice in [[Super Contest]]s, in which she has nicknamed '''Loony''' (Japanese: '''ばるん''' ''Barun'').

==In the anime==
[[Image:Winona anime.png|left|thumb|245px|left|Winona in the anime]]
Winona was the Gym Leader of the Fortree City Gym, and was also known as the most talented Flying-type user. She appeared in ''[[AG084|Who's Flying Now?]]'' and ''[[AG085|Sky High Gym Battle]]''.

When {{Ash}} first arrived at Fortree, she was away from the gym in order to help out in the [[Feather Carnival]], an annual festival where the whole city celebrates the Flying Pokémon. After getting scared by [[Brock]]'s "usual ways" and chasing [[Team Rocket]] off for trying to steal the {{type2|Flying}}s with her {{p|Skarmory}}, she battled Ash on the next day.

Winona used {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Pelipper}} and a {{shiny2}} {{p|Swellow}} against {{AP|Ash's Grovyle|Sceptile}}, {{AP|Pikachu}} and his own {{AP|Swellow}}. After a long battle, Ash won the Feather Badge from her.

{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|Winona|Skarmory|{{flying color}}|AG084.png|Winona's {{p|Skarmory}} only appeared in the Feather Festival. Each time, it would bring a child and Winona on its back and fly around the festival, including {{an|May}} and [[Max]]. It was never seen in the Gym battle against Ash.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|Winona|Altaria|{{flying color}}|Winona's Altaria.png|The first Pokémon Winona used in the gym battle against Ash was her {{p|Altaria}}. With {{AP|Grovyle|Sceptile}}'s speed, Altaria's attack did not work again and again. Then finally, with a {{m|Leaf Blade}}, Altaria was defeated.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|Winona|Pelipper|{{flying color}}|Pelipper Steel Wing.PNG|Winona's {{p|Pelipper}} was the second Pokémon she used against Ash. Ash battled with {{AP|Pikachu}}, starting with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Pelipper countered with {{m|Steel Wing}} as a ground. Pelipper then used {{m|Hydro Pump}}, but its wing lost contact with the ground and Pikachu used its mistake to its advantage with a {{m|Thunder}} attack. Both Pelipper and Pikachu were knocked out.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|Winona|Swellow|{{flying color}}|Winona Swellow.png|The final Pokémon Winona used against Ash was her {{shiny2}} {{p|Swellow}}. It was shown to be a powerful battler, with powerful attacks like {{m|Aerial Ace}} and {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It defeated Ash's Grovyle easily and almost beat Ash's {{AP|Swellow}}, but with a little quick thinking on Ash's part, his Swellow was victorious, winning Ash the Feather Badge.

Winona's Swellow was the fifth shiny Pokémon to appear in the anime. To date, it is also the only shiny Pokémon owned by a Gym Leader. It is voiced by [[Darren Dunstan]] in English and [[Kōichi Sakaguchi]] in Japanese.}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Wallace and Winona.png|thumb|right|250px|Winona and her Altaria (left) with Wallace and his Luvdisc (right)]]
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Winona is the supervisor of the [[Hoenn]] Gym Leaders, much as [[Erika]] is the leader of the [[Kanto]] Gym Leaders. Her job is to watch over all [[Hoenn]] Gym Leaders to ensure the gyms are running smoothly. She's apparently close to [[Flannery]], as the young [[Gym Leader]]'s judgment is enough to convince her that [[Team Magma]] is the side she should take in the {{pkmn|battle}} between Team Magma and [[Team Aqua]]. Later, she is convinced by [[Wallace]] to renounce her alliance, as both sides are up to no good.

When {{adv|Sapphire}} first battles and loses to Winona, Winona takes her under her wing and trains her. Because of this, Sapphire joins the Gym Leaders' fight against {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

She and [[Wallace]] apparently had some sort of [[GracefulShipping|relationship]] in the past, speculated by most fans to have been romantic. Although it is largely unconfirmed whether she still has feelings for him, it is quite obvious that [[Wallace]] still has feelings for her, based on the scene where the two say their goodbyes before they leave to fight {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} in {{PAV|20}}.

When Wallace attempted to battle [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]] single-handedly, Winona was held hostage by Archie's {{p|Tentacruel}}.

==Quotes==
''"I am Winona. I am the Leader of the Fortree Pokémon Gym. I have become one with Bird Pokémon and have soared the skies... However grueling the battle, we have triumphed with grace... Witness the elegant choreography of Bird Pokémon and I!"''

''"Never before have I seen a Trainer command Pokémon with more grace than I... In recognition of your prowess, I present to you this Gym Badge."''

Before and after the first rematch in {{v2|Emerald}}:

"''We humans can never escape gravity's pull on the ground. But by striving for excellence, we have the power to soar! You have scaled the pinnacles as the reigning Champion. Please, allow me to see your power at full flight!''"

"''I failed to reach your height again...''"

"''Even though I have lost, the wings of my heart remain unbroken. I can rise and soar again and yet again. I am convinced of it!''"
=== Trainer's Eyes ===
'''Strategy''' -
I take advantage of speed.

'''Trainer's Pokémon''' -
Graceful sky dancers

'''Self-Introduction''' -
I can see the ebb and flow of the winds.

==Trivia==
* In addition to being the only female in the [[Pokémon anime]] to own a {{shiny2}} Pokémon, Winona is the only [[Gym Leader]] to do so.
* Winona's {{p|Altaria}} in the games is underleveled; {{p|Swablu}} do not evolve until level 35.
* Winona and [[Byron]] are the only [[Gym Leader]]s in the {{pkmn|anime}} to own [[Giant Pokémon]], however Byron's was only a [[Fossil]]

'''Byron''' (Japanese: '''トウガン''' ''Tougan'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Canalave City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Canalave Gym]]. He hands out the {{badge|Mine}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in {{type2|Steel}} [[Pokémon]]. He is [[Roark]]'s father.

==In the games==
Byron uses {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon in his battles. Trainers who defeat him will receive the {{badge|Mine}}, {{TM|91|Flash Cannon}}, and will be able to use {{m|Strength}} outside of battle. Byron asked [[Riley]] to become a Gym Leader, but Riley declined because he thought Byron's son Roark should be considered first. Byron isn't surprised to find his inexperienced son lost to the protagonist, but is enthusiastic about the next generation of Pokémon trainers. Byron resolves to train harder at [[Iron Island]] to compete with younger trainers.

He apparently owns the normally deserted cabin on Iron Island. After the Elite Four, he can be found there. Speaking to him results in him chiding himself for still treating Roark like a child, then he'll give the player a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Metal Coat}} and leave. In {{v2|Platinum}}, he mentions that he lived on Iron Island for a long time and so feels out of place when visiting the [[Villa]]. Along with those visits, he can also be battled again at the [[Battleground]] in Platinum.

===Quotes===
'''[[Canalave Gym]]'''
*Before battle
:''"Ah! That's Oreburgh Gym Badge! I see, I see! You've defeated my son. But that's no surprise. He still has much to learn. In place of my son Roark, I, Byron, will take your challenge!"''

*After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Oh, what's this? My last one! This is where we make our stand!"''

*During battle
:''"We're not done yet! There's no giving up!"''

*When defeated
:''"Hmm! My sturdy Pokémon, defeated!"''

*After being defeated
:''"You were strong enough to take down my prized team of Pokémon. In recognition of that power, I give you this: the Mine Badge!"''

:''"Gwahahahaha! The Sinnoh region is vast! Tough Trainers like you and <rival> crop up constantly to challenge the old guard! With more young Trainers like my son and you two taking charge, the future of Pokémon is bright! But I'm not stepping aside just yet! I merely need to rededicate myself to training on Iron Island."''

'''[[Villa]]'''
:''"Guhahahaha! How's your Villa? Can you give me a tour?"''

:''"Gwahahahaha! I spent a long time living on Iron Island. A place this fancy, I feel a little out of place. Don't get me wrong, it's a great place. It's nothing like my son's!"''

:''"You're acquainted with a fellow named Riley, aren't you? He's a mystifying sort, that one. I have no idea how old he is, to tell you the truth."''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Byron.png|thumb|left|240px|Byron in the anime]]
Byron made his debut appearance in ''[[DP107|Ancient Family Matters!]]'' together with his son, [[Roark]]. It was revealed Byron had once been the Gym Leader of {{ci|Oreburgh}} and had left his family to become the [[Gym Leader]] of {{ci|Canalave}} as he was more interested in [[fossil]]s, leaving his former position to Roark. Byron battles his son for a short time before the match got interrupted by [[Team Rocket]]. It was later revealed that Byron still cared for his son as he kept the fossil Roark had found as a child with him ever since.

Byron is obsessed with digging and fossils. When his fossils were stolen by Team Rocket in ''[[DP107|Ancient Family Matters!]]'', Byron was too busy admiring the hole they dug into the building to notice.

In ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', {{Ash}} had his gym {{pkmn|battle}} against Byron, defeating him and earning a {{badge|Mine}}.

In [[DP155]], Byron was presumably defeated by [[Paul]], earning him his eighth badge, and therby making him eligible for the Sinnoh League.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Byron's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:

{{-}}

{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|Byron|Bronzor|{{steel color}}|Byron%27s_Bronzor.png|Bronzor was the first Pokémon used by Byron during his [[DP108|Gym Battle against]] {{Ash}} where it went up against [[Ash's Chimchar]] where it was able to stand up to Chimchar's {{m|Flamethrower}} thanks to Byron's intensive training with the Pokémon. It was able to cause significant damage to Chimchar before being knocked out by {{m|Flame Wheel}}.

Bronzor's known attacks are {{m|Gyro Ball}} and {{m|Rain Dance}} and its ability is {{a|Heatproof}}.
}}

{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|Byron|Steelix|{{steel color}}|Byron%27s_Steelix2.png|Steelix was the second Pokémon used by Byron when battling Ash, and proved to be a very tough opponent. It knocked out {{AP|Buizel}} easily, and was able to cause massive damage to Chimchar. However it was eventually defeated by Chimchar after the Chimp Pokémon weakened the ground with {{m|Dig}} restricting its movement.

Steelix's known attacks are {{m|Screech}}, {{m|Bind}} and {{m|Iron Tail}}.

Byron made an appearance with his Shieldon. Roark met him at Eterna City when exploring the Underground, where they discussed something (not known yet). Roark said that his father was the unpredictable type.

After being defeated by Berlitz, Byron takes on the responsibility of protecting Professor Rowan and Mr. Berlitz while doing research in Canalave City.

Byron gave a Shieldon to {{adv|Diamond}}.

===[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!|Pokémon DP]]===
Byron finds [[Hareta]] washed up on the shore after having been defeated by [[Cyrus]]. Byron takes Hareta in and allows him to regain his strength before putting him through a rigorous training session similar to what he put Roark through years ago. Hareta charges forward never considering his remaining strength, causing him to fail the challenge at the final stage. Byron then sends him to [[Iron Island]] to restart his training from scratch and improve his skills. He returns at the completion of Hareta's training to allow him to take his challenge again, however something terrible is happening in the distance. Byron seemed to hae a fondness for Hareta, possibly ike a second son to him.

'''Byron''' (Japanese: '''トウガン''' ''Tougan'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Canalave City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Canalave Gym]]. He hands out the {{badge|Mine}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in {{type2|Steel}} [[Pokémon]]. He is [[Roark]]'s father.

==In the games==
Byron uses {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon in his battles. Trainers who defeat him will receive the {{badge|Mine}}, {{TM|91|Flash Cannon}}, and will be able to use {{m|Strength}} outside of battle. Byron asked [[Riley]] to become a Gym Leader, but Riley declined because he thought Byron's son Roark should be considered first. Byron isn't surprised to find his inexperienced son lost to the protagonist, but is enthusiastic about the next generation of Pokémon trainers. Byron resolves to train harder at [[Iron Island]] to compete with younger trainers.

He apparently owns the normally deserted cabin on Iron Island. After the Elite Four, he can be found there. Speaking to him results in him chiding himself for still treating Roark like a child, then he'll give the player a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Metal Coat}} and leave. In {{v2|Platinum}}, he mentions that he lived on Iron Island for a long time and so feels out of place when visiting the [[Villa]]. Along with those visits, he can also be battled again at the [[Battleground]] in Platinum.

===Quotes===
'''[[Canalave Gym]]'''
*Before battle
:''"Ah! That's Oreburgh Gym Badge! I see, I see! You've defeated my son. But that's no surprise. He still has much to learn. In place of my son Roark, I, Byron, will take your challenge!"''

*After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Oh, what's this? My last one! This is where we make our stand!"''

*During battle
:''"We're not done yet! There's no giving up!"''

*When defeated
:''"Hmm! My sturdy Pokémon, defeated!"''

*After being defeated
:''"You were strong enough to take down my prized team of Pokémon. In recognition of that power, I give you this: the Mine Badge!"''

:''"Gwahahahaha! The Sinnoh region is vast! Tough Trainers like you and <rival> crop up constantly to challenge the old guard! With more young Trainers like my son and you two taking charge, the future of Pokémon is bright! But I'm not stepping aside just yet! I merely need to rededicate myself to training on Iron Island."''

'''[[Villa]]'''
:''"Guhahahaha! How's your Villa? Can you give me a tour?"''

:''"Gwahahahaha! I spent a long time living on Iron Island. A place this fancy, I feel a little out of place. Don't get me wrong, it's a great place. It's nothing like my son's!"''

:''"You're acquainted with a fellow named Riley, aren't you? He's a mystifying sort, that one. I have no idea how old he is, to tell you the truth."''

==In the anime==
[[Image:Byron.png|thumb|left|240px|Byron in the anime]]
Byron made his debut appearance in ''[[DP107|Ancient Family Matters!]]'' together with his son, [[Roark]]. It was revealed Byron had once been the Gym Leader of {{ci|Oreburgh}} and had left his family to become the [[Gym Leader]] of {{ci|Canalave}} as he was more interested in [[fossil]]s, leaving his former position to Roark. Byron battles his son for a short time before the match got interrupted by [[Team Rocket]]. It was later revealed that Byron still cared for his son as he kept the fossil Roark had found as a child with him ever since.

Byron is obsessed with digging and fossils. When his fossils were stolen by Team Rocket in ''[[DP107|Ancient Family Matters!]]'', Byron was too busy admiring the hole they dug into the building to notice.

In ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', {{Ash}} had his gym {{pkmn|battle}} against Byron, defeating him and earning a {{badge|Mine}}.

In [[DP155]], Byron was presumably defeated by [[Paul]], earning him his eighth badge, and therby making him eligible for the Sinnoh League.

It was able to cause significant damage to Chimchar before being knocked out by {{m|Flame Wheel}}.

Bronzor's known attacks are {{m|Gyro Ball}} and {{m|Rain Dance}} and its ability is {{a|Heatproof}}.

'''Ash's Buizel''' (Japanese: '''サトシのブイゼル''' ''Satoshi's Buoysel'') is the third [[Pokémon]] captured by {{an|Dawn}} in ''[[DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This!]]'', and was traded to [[Ash Ketchum]] for his Aipom after Buizel showed a love for battling and Aipom a love for contests in ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]''. 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 {{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.
[[Image:Ash'sBuizel.png|left|thumb|200px|Buizel's first appearance]]
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.

===With Ash===
[[File:Ash Buizel contest.png|thumb|right|Buizel in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]
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.

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}}.

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.

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]].

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 "Ice Jet" 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}}.

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}}.

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]].

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}}.

==Trivia==
* 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]]''.
* 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|Staging a Heroes Welcome]]''.
* 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]].
* 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).
* 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.
* Buizel is Ash's first {{wp|mammal}}ian {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.
* Buizel and Pikachu are the only Pokémon currently on Ash's team that have both their [[gender]] and [[ability]] confirmed.
* 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.
* 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!]]''.
** 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!]]''.
* Buizel is similar to Ash's {{AP|Sceptile}}, due to him being a prime battler, as well as showing a very serious nature (it should be noted that Buizel is shown to socialize with other Pokémon, unlike Sceptile, who almost always preferred to be alone while relaxing).
* As of the latest Japanese episode, Buizel is the only Pokémon in Ash's team to be part of a one-evolution family.

'''Ash's Buizel''' (Japanese: '''サトシのブイゼル''' ''Satoshi's Buoysel'') is the third [[Pokémon]] captured by {{an|Dawn}} in ''[[DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This!]]'', and was traded to [[Ash Ketchum]] for his Aipom after Buizel showed a love for battling and Aipom a love for contests in ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]''. 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 {{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.
[[Image:Ash'sBuizel.png|left|thumb|200px|Buizel's first appearance]]
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.

===With Ash===
[[File:Ash Buizel contest.png|thumb|right|Buizel in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]
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.

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}}.

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.

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]].

==Trivia==
* 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]]''.
* 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|Staging a Heroes Welcome]]''.
* 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]].
* 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).
* 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.
* Buizel is Ash's first {{wp|mammal}}ian {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.
* Buizel and Pikachu are the only Pokémon currently on Ash's team that have both their [[gender]] and [[ability]] confirmed.
* 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.
* 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!]]''.
** 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!]]''.
* Buizel is similar to Ash's {{AP|Sceptile}}, due to him being a prime battler, as well as showing a very serious nature (it should be noted that Buizel is shown to socialize with other Pokémon, unlike Sceptile, who almost always preferred to be alone while relaxing).
* As of the latest Japanese episode, Buizel is the only Pokémon in Ash's team to be part of a one-evolution family.

'''Dawn's Mamoswine''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのマンムー''' ''Hikari's Mammoo'') was the fifth [[Pokémon]] {{pkmn2|caught|captured}} by {{an|Dawn}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}, and her sixth Pokémon in all.
==History==
[[Image:DP084.png|As a {{p|Swinub}}|thumb|left]]
Mamoswine's debut was in ''[[DP084|Hungry for the Good Life!]]'' as a Swinub. It appeared at [[Mr. Backlot]]'s mansion from a nearby forest. It caused trouble by devouring all of Dawn's [[Poffin]]s, much to the displeasure of Dawn's other {{DL|Dawn (anime)|Pokémon}}. This revealed its gluttonous [[nature]]. However, after helping take down [[Team Rocket]] and rescue the other Pokémon, Dawn decided she wanted Swinub to go with her.

In ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]'', Swinub watched its first {{pkmn|Contest}} when it saw Dawn, {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} and {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} work together to win the [[Celestic Town]] {{pkmn|Contest}}.

While still a Swinub, it was not used very much due to its relative lack of battling experience. It had a very cheerful personality and would often jump up and down in excitement.
Swinub evolved into Piloswine in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle!]]'' in a {{pkmn|battle}} against Team Rocket. After evolving, though Piloswine was still very affectionate towards Dawn, as seen in ''[[DP105|Get Your Rotom Running!]]'' where it tackled her to the ground out of affection.

However, its personality drastically changed. In ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]'', just two episodes after evolving, Piloswine started to disobey Dawn. Knowing numerous powerful attacks, Piloswine felt much stronger and more confident than it did as a Swinub. It then attacked {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} for touching its fur presumptuously. It started to develop an indifference towards Dawn and rushed towards her only after she threw its favorite food, [[Poffin]]s, around, forcing it to run around to eat the Poffins. It even tried to attack Dawn with {{m|Ice Shard}}. It used Ice Shard and froze half the body of {{AP|Grotle}}, who tried to stop it from rampaging. Immediately after that, it rushed all the way towards Dawn and the others, nearly crushing everyone, only to be stopped by [[Brock]]'s muscular {{TP|Brock|Happiny}}. Dawn agreed to have a battle with her Piloswine and [[Ash's Grotle]]. However, it ignored Dawn's commands and used {{m|AncientPower}} instead.

It later evolved again into {{p|Mamoswine}} after being attacked by Team Rocket. Unfortunately, it has kept its bad behavior from when it was a Piloswine, and even charged at the gang in a rage, only to be stopped by Brock, who told Dawn to return it to its [[Poké Ball]]. Despite this, Dawn is still eager to train Mamoswine well.
[[Image:Piloswine.png|As a {{p|Piloswine}}|thumb|left]]
In battle, {{P|Mamoswine}} has shown to be incredibly powerful thanks to its large and powerful physique. It was shown to take {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}'s {{m|BubbleBeam}}, {{m|Whirlpool}} ''and'' {{m|Peck}} in quick succession with no resistance at all as well as knocking it out for the third time in ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]''.

In ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'', Dawn tried to call for its help removing a broken manhole cover, but it turned its back to Dawn and refused. Dawn then bribed it with [[Poffin]]s in order to follow. Although it did help, it then happily threw Dawn and Piplup into the air, eating the Poffins while it was left to {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} to catch them.

In ''[[DP114|Another One Gabites the Dust!]]'', Mamoswine wasn't really excited to watch Dawn in the contest. Instead, it just slept with a pompom on its head. Later on, during Dawn's battle with [[Ursula]], Mamoswine seemed to watch with interest, seeing Dawn and {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} use Pachirisu's {{m|Super Fang|new move}} to the fullest.
{{left clear}}

In ''[[DP119|Trials and Adulations!]]'', Mamoswine was injured during a battle against a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Aggron}}. Dawn and her Pokémon used the first aid skills taught to her by Brock in ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]'' to help Mamoswine recover, and later attempted to protect Mamoswine against Team Rocket. As a result, Mamoswine started obeying Dawn and under her instructions, it was able to defeat Aggron.

In ''[[DP123|Old Rivals, New Tricks]]'', although it pretended not to be interested, Mamoswine helped {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} train for the upcoming [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]]. Later during the contest it tried to sleep instead of cheerleading, however when Ambipom started battling [[Kenny's Prinplup]] it started to watch and eventually got completely drawn into the excitement, watching the match wide-eyed.
[[File:Mamoswine Ice Shard back.png|thumb|240px|left|Ice on its back]]
In ''[[DP134|Promoting Healthy Tangrowth!]]'', Dawn decided to train the Twin Tusk Pokémon for her upcoming Contest, all going well until Mamoswine gets embarrassed and angry over an accident and runs off into a jungle causing Dawn to go after it. Soon, a wild {{p|Tangrowth}} appears and attacks Mamoswine, defeating it with Tangrowth's {{m|Absorb}} sapping it of its energy. After learning the real reason why Tangrowth attacked, Team Rocket appears to cause havoc, it learns {{m|Hidden Power}} in the process of attacking Team Rocket's machine. Also during this episode, Mamoswine shows that it still has a tiny bit of a rebellious attitude, but when Dawn is in danger it does not hesitate to help her.

After its evolution, Mamoswine is usually seen sleeping when outside its [[Poké Ball]]. During Dawn's Contests or practices, it pretends to be asleep as it watches Dawn and her Pokémon perform.

In [[DP146]], Dawn used Mamoswine in the battle round of the {{to|Lilypad}} Contest, making it its first contest. Earlier in the episode, Dawn taught it a trick that utilizes swallowing {{m|Ice Shard}} to create ice spikes on its back, inspired by [[Ash's Grotle]] swallowing its own {{m|Energy Ball}}. Despite this, during the Contest battle against {{TP|James|Carnivine}}, it lost its temper and began rampaging out of control, resulting in a loss.

In [[DP155]], Mamoswine trained with Piplup as a partner but it did not go well. The same went for Pachirisu. [[Dawn's Cyndaquil]] was the one to work well the best with Mamoswine. During their practice battle against [[Zoey]], Zoey's {{p|Kirlia}} used {{m|Psychic}} to control her {{p|Leafeon}}'s {{m|Magical Leaf}}, defeating both Mamoswine and {{p|Cyndaquil}}.

===Moves improvised===
'''Swallowing Ice Shard''': By swallowing its own Ice Shard, Mamoswine can create ice spikes on its back.

'''Flame Ice''': is a combination which was created by Mamoswine and Cyndaquil when they were training with Dawn in [[DP155]]. It involves Cyndaquil being trapped by Mamoswine's Ice Shard while utilising Flame Wheel.

==Trivia==
* ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle]]'', the episode in which {{p|Swinub}} evolves into {{p|Piloswine}}, first aired in Japan in the same week that ''[[DP084|Hungry For the Good Life!]]'', the episode in which Swinub is captured, first aired in the United States. The same thing happened to [[Ash's Gliscor]] and Gligar.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, was the first capture Dawn made since {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}, exactly [[DP034|50 episodes before]]. It is also her only capture in which she didn't {{pkmn|battle}} the Pokémon twice, or even at all.
* Mamoswine, as a Swinub, has some similarities with [[May's Munchlax]]: Mamoswine loves to eat mass quantities of [[Poffin]]; likewise, May's Munchlax enjoys mass quantities of [[Pokéblock]] (the [[Generation III]] counterpart of the Poffin).
* Mamoswine is similar to [[Ash's Charizard]] in several aspects. Both Pokémon began disobeyed their respective trainers after evolution, only to begin following orders after each facing another Pokémon who severely injured them.
* So far, Mamoswine is Dawn's only {{cat|dual-type Pokémon}}.
* Mamoswine is Dawn's second evolved Pokémon, the first being {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}}. Both are final forms of a [[Generation II]] evolution family. Coincidentally, both need to know a specific move to evolve.
* Mamoswine is the first Pokémon in the current saga to appear evolved in an opening prior to its actual evolution being shown.
* Both of Mamoswine's evolutions happened during a battle with [[Team Rocket]].
* Mamoswine is similar to Ash's Gliscor in a couple of ways. Both of them were their Trainer's fifth capture in Sinnoh, and both are part of a {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|Generation II evolution family}}. They also sat out of exactly three Contests/Gym battles before finally participating.
* It could be assumed Mamoswine is male due to the length of its tusks but this theory has not been proved due the the absense of any other {{p|Mamoswine}} to compare it to.

'''Flannery''' (Japanese: '''アスナ''' ''Asuna'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Lavaridge Town]]'s hot springs [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Lavaridge Gym]]. She specializes in {{type2|Fire}} [[Pokémon]] and gives out the {{Badge|Heat}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her.

==In the games==
Flannery's title is "One with a fiery passion that burns!" Her passion for Pokémon burns stronger and hotter than a volcano.

She is admired for her beauty and strength. She's only been Gym Leader for a short time, and she tries to act intimidating but can't quite get it right. After she loses to the main character, she realized that she was trying too hard to be someone that she wasn't and had to run things her own way.

Her grandfather was once a member of the Hoenn Elite Four. She has apparently battled with Norman sometime in the past.

In addition to the Heat Badge, Flannery gives out {{TM|50|Overheat}}, in {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

Dare not underestimate me, though I have been Leader only a short time! With skills inherited from my grandfather, I shall, uh...demonstrate the hot moves we have honed on this land!"''

''"Oh... I guess I was trying too hard... I... I've only recently become a Gym Leader. I tried too hard to be someone I'm not. I have to do things my natural way. If I don't, my Pokémon will be confused. Thanks for teaching me that. For that, you deserve this."''

''"Your power reminds me of someone... Oh! I know! You battle like Norman, the Gym Leader of Petalburg."''

At first rematch and on ({{game|Emerald}}): 
''"Losing a battle isn't going to deflate me. I love Pokémon. I love to battle. And... I love this Gym! Let's exchange superhot moves in another battle!"''

''"Whew! On the verge of eruption!"''

''"I lost the match, but I'm completely satisfied. It's not often I get to enjoy a battle this heated. Let's have another one like this sometime!"''

=== Trainer's Eyes ===
'''Strategy''' -
Battle aggressively.

'''Trainer's Pokémon''' -
Burn with passion!

'''Self-Introduction''' -
Wash away daily fatigue in hot springs completely!

==In the anime==
[[Image:FlanneryAnime.jpg|thumb|left|240px|Flannery in the anime]]
Flannery made her debut appearance in ''[[AG055|Poetry Commotion!]]'' where she was training with her {{p|Slugma}}. She revealed that she was the new [[Lavaridge Town]] [[Gym Leader]] after her grandfather, [[Mr. Moore]] retired to become a poet. As such she was shown to be inexperienced and relatively incapable, traits which caused her to forget to clean up the gym since the last challenger's match. In an effort to remove the wait needed for his next gym battle, {{Ash}} volunteers himself and {{ashfr|his friends}} for cleaning duty.

While cleaning, the group are helped by [[Jessie]] and [[James]] of [[Team Rocket]] who are disguised as construction workers as well as the former gym leader, Flannery's grandfather, who is disguised as a judge. Flannery's grandfather saved the day when Team Rocket attempt to steal Flannery's {{p|Torkoal}}. In the resulting battle, one of her Slugma evolved into a {{p|Magcargo}}.

In ''[[AG056|Going, Going, Yawn]]'', Ash had his gym battle where he used his {{AP|Corphish}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and [[Ash's Sceptile|Treecko]]. Ash won the battle and the {{Badge|Heat}}.

===Pokémon===

{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|nick=Mag|Flannery|Magcargo|{{fire color}}|Flannery's Magcargo.png|Mag (Japanese: '''マグ''' ) is Flannery's {{p|Magcargo}}. It first appeared as a {{p|Slugma}} in ''[[AG055|Poetry Commotion!]]'', training with Flannery and Meg. When Team Rocket attacked and tried to steal Torkoal, Flannery used Mag, and it evolved.

[[AG056|The following day]], Mag was the first Pokémon Flannery used in her battle with {{Ash}}. Although it was a harder challenge than Ash originally thought, his {{AP|Corphish}} was able to win the round.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=|main=no|nick=Meg|Flannery|Slugma|{{fire color}}|Flannery's Slugma.png|Meg (Japanese: '''メグ''' ) is Flannery's {{p|Slugma}}. It first appeared in ''[[AG055|Poetry Commotion!]]'', training with Flannery and Mag.

During Flannery's gym battle with {{Ash}}, Meg was the second Pokémon she used. Ash used {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}, but switched it for {{AP|Corphish}} when Meg seemed to have the upper hand with its {{type2|Fire}} attacks, {{m|Body Slam}}, {{m|Smog}}, and Mag's {{m|Reflect}}. When Flannery surprised Ash by having Meg use {{m|Yawn}}, Ash was forced to switch Pokémon again, this time choosing {{AP|Pikachu}}. Thanks to Pikachu's speed and {{type2|Electric}} attacks, it managed to defeat Meg.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|Flannery|Torkoal|{{fire color}}|Flannery Torkoal.PNG|{{p|Torkoal}} made its debut in ''[[AG055|Poetry Commotion]]'' where [[Team Rocket]] had tried to steal it. They were defeated when Mag evolved into {{p|Magcargo}} and sent them blasting away.

Torkoal was the final Pokémon Flannery used in the gym battle against {{Ash}} in ''[[AG056|Going, Going, Yawn]]''. With a powerful {{m|Overheat}} attack and a strong {{m|Iron Defense}}, it was able to defeat [[Ash's Pikachu]] and {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}} easily. Ash then used his last Pokémon, {{TP|Ash|Corphish}}. After a fierce battle, {{p|Corphish}} emerged victorious and managed to defeat Torkoal.

Its English voice actress is [[Maddie Blaustein]].}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Flannery Special.png|thumb|right|Flannery in Pokémon Adventures]]
In the Pokémon Adventures, Flannery tried to protect [[Mt. Chimney]] from having its flames doused by Team Aqua. However, even with the help of {{adv|Sapphire}}, she was unable to prevent the water-worshiping team from causing the volcano to become dormant.

During the battle, she was also assisted by [[Tabitha]] of [[Team Magma]]. The two seemed to be attracted to each other. Later, when all the Hoenn Gym Leaders chose sides, Flannery aligned herself with Team Magma. The destruction later caused by {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} changed her mind.

Flannery is also apparently close friends with [[Winona]].

She also said to Sapphire that her grandfather was a member of the Elite Four and is the one who in spired her to become a great trainer, which is why she became a gym leader. And she also confirmed her grandfather is deceased.

==Trivia==
* Flannery's grandfather is named [[Mr. Moore]]. However, because it is not specified if it is her mother or father's father, her last name may or may not be Moore.
* The [[Pokémon Adventures]] Manga is the only appearance Flannery has made where she doesn't own a [[Torkoal]], she has one in every single team of the games and it is her signature Pokémon in the anime.

'''Roxanne''' (Japanese: '''ツツジ''' ''Tsutsuji'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Rustboro City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Rustboro Gym]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Stone}}. She is a scholar who specializes in {{type2|Rock}} [[Pokémon]].

==In the games==
Roxanne's title is "The Rock-Loving Honor Student." Her strategy is Rock-type power attacks. She believes Rock-type Pokémon to be rock solid.

Roxanne became a Gym Leader so that she could apply what she learned at the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in battle. She wants to face many new opponents to see them demonstrate how they battle and with which Pokémon.

Her desire is to learn all about Pokémon through battling.

In addition to the Stone Badge, Roxanne gives out {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}}, in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

This listing is for Roxanne's Pokémon in the video games in which she has appeared.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Roxanne076.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Roxanne in the anime]]
Roxanne first appeared in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School]]''. [[Ash Ketchum]] and his friends met her when [[Max]] found a lost {{p|Poliwag}} from Roxanne's school. Roxanne teaches classes on Pokémon to the citizens of Rustboro. She is in charge of teaching very young children about [[Pokémon]] in the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]].

When Ash and company first arrived in Rustboro, Roxanne was not able to answer Ash's challenge because she was still busy with teaching. However, she and the headmaster of the school invited the gang to spend a day in the school.

In ''[[AG016|A Winner By a Nosepass]]'', Ash battled Roxanne at the [[Gym]] while being filmed by some of Roxanne's students. Ash's {{AP|Pikachu}} was able to defeat both of her Pokémon through a combination of pure electrical power and its newly learned {{m|Iron Tail}} technique which took Roxanne by surprise.

Roxanne apparently knows [[Professor Oak]], as he gives live remote lectures for the students at the school. She also knows about Brock and the Pewter City Gym, which shares her specialty.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Roxanne's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|Roxanne|Geodude|{{rock color}}|Roxanne's Geodude.png|{{p|Geodude}} was first seen in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School]]'', when Roxanne used it to fight off [[Team Rocket]]. [[AG016|In the next episode]], Geodude was the first Pokémon Roxanne used in her Gym battle with {{Ash}}. Geodude easily defeated {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}} with two {{m|Mega Punch}} attacks despite the type disadvantage and Ash's best efforts, since Treecko didn't know any {{type2|Grass}} moves at the time. {{AP|Pikachu}}, however, managed to defeat Geodude with {{m|Thunder}}.

Geodude's known moves are {{m|Mega Punch}}, {{m|Rock Throw}} and {{m|Rollout}}.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|Roxanne|Nosepass|{{rock color}}|Roxanne_and_Nosepass.PNG|The next Pokémon Roxanne used in her battle with {{Ash}} was her signature Pokémon, {{p|Nosepass}}. Since {{AP|Pikachu}} had not much experience in using the [[move]] {{m|Iron Tail}} as it had only recently learned it, it was not able to use it effectively against Nosepass. With many powerful attacks like {{m|Zap Cannon}}, {{m|Sandstorm}}, {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Rock Tomb}}, it proved to be a tough opponent for Pikachu. However, eventually Pikachu managed to perfect its Iron Tail, and was able to defeat Nosepass with it, earning Ash the {{badge|Stone}}.

Its English voice actor is [[Darren Dunstan]].}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Roxanne Special.png|thumb|Roxanne and her Nosepass in Pokémon Adventures]]
Roxanne is an honor student at the Pokémon Trainers School of Rustboro and knows much trivia about Pokémon. She's also extremely arrogant about her intellect.

Roxanne travels around by riding on her {{p|Graveler}}. She keeps her {{p|Nosepass}}'s [[Poké Ball]] in a hollowed-out book.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Sapphire}} arrived in Rustboro eager to win her first [[Badge]]. She entered the Rustboro Gym only to see a classroom full of students listening to a lecture from Roxanne.

Roxanne makes her opponents take a written test as part of the Gym challenge. Despite her difficulty with schoolwork, Sapphire got the highest marks in the testing due to her tutoring from her father, [[Professor Birch]].

Sapphire battled with her {{p|Aron}} only to have Roxanne's Nosepass block her attacks with {{m|Harden}}. Sapphire was unable to withdraw her Aron from the battle thanks to Nosepass' {{a|Magnet Pull}}. Sapphire, however, realized that Nosepass must always face north and had her Aron attack from behind.

In the [[Hoenn]] conflict, she sided with [[Team Aqua]]. She had worked with [[Professor Cozmo]], who unknowingly assisted the evil team, and reasoned that the Professor wouldn't support an evil group. She changed her mind after {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} started their rampage.

Roxanne attempted to stop Groudon in [[Lilycove City]] by having her Nosepass use {{m|Block}}. It worked, but during a battle with [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]], the FireHead threatened to kill nearby civilians and so Roxanne yielded, allowing Courtney's {{p|Ninetales}} to knock out Nosepass.

==Quotes==
''"Hello, I am Roxanne, the Rustboro Pokémon Gym Leader. I became a Gym Leader so that I might apply what I learned at the Pokémon Trainer's School in battle. Would you kindly demonstrate how you battle, and with which Pokémon?"''

''"So... I lost... It seems that I still have much more to learn... I understand. The Pokémon League's rules state that Trainers are to be given this if they defeat a Gym Leader. Please accept the official Pokémon League Stone Badge."''

''"Since you are so strong, you should challenge other Gym leaders. By battling many Trainers, you should learn many things."''

Before a rematch:

''"I'm so glad to see you again. I'm Roxanne, the Gym Leader here. I'm sure we've both experienced many battles since we last met. I would like to see how much better we've become. Let us battle!"''

''"I still have much to learn when it comes to battling Pokémon. That awareness makes me love battling all that much more!"''

=== Trainer's Eyes ===
'''Strategy''' -
{{type2|Rock}} power attack

'''Trainer's Pokémon''' -
Rock-solid types are good.

'''Self-Introduction''' -
Through battling, I want to learn all about Pokémon.

==Trivia==
*Roxanne was the first [[Gym Leader]] that is encountered first in the region to give out a [[TM]] containing a move of her signature type; both [[Falkner]] and [[Brock]] gave out TMs containing moves not of their specialty type in their respective first appearances, changing to their specialty in their games' [[remake]]s.
*Roxanne is currently the only one out of the four first Gym Leaders who is female.
*Roxanne is the only {{type2|Rock}} [[Gym Leader]] who is female.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Roxanne076.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Roxanne in the anime]]
Roxanne first appeared in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School]]''. [[Ash Ketchum]] and his friends met her when [[Max]] found a lost {{p|Poliwag}} from Roxanne's school. Roxanne teaches classes on Pokémon to the citizens of Rustboro. She is in charge of teaching very young children about [[Pokémon]] in the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]].

When Ash and company first arrived in Rustboro, Roxanne was not able to answer Ash's challenge because she was still busy with teaching. However, she and the headmaster of the school invited the gang to spend a day in the school.

In ''[[AG016|A Winner By a Nosepass]]'', Ash battled Roxanne at the [[Gym]] while being filmed by some of Roxanne's students. Ash's {{AP|Pikachu}} was able to defeat both of her Pokémon through a combination of pure electrical power and its newly learned {{m|Iron Tail}} technique which took Roxanne by surprise.

Roxanne apparently knows [[Professor Oak]], as he gives live remote lectures for the students at the school. She also knows about Brock and the Pewter City Gym, which shares her specialty.

===Pokémon===
This listing is of Roxanne's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
{{trainerpkmn|note=h|main=no|Roxanne|Geodude|{{rock color}}|Roxanne's Geodude.png|{{p|Geodude}} was first seen in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School]]'', when Roxanne used it to fight off [[Team Rocket]]. [[AG016|In the next episode]], Geodude was the first Pokémon Roxanne used in her Gym battle with {{Ash}}. Geodude easily defeated {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}} with two {{m|Mega Punch}} attacks despite the type disadvantage and Ash's best efforts, since Treecko didn't know any {{type2|Grass}} moves at the time. {{AP|Pikachu}}, however, managed to defeat Geodude with {{m|Thunder}}.

Geodude's known moves are {{m|Mega Punch}}, {{m|Rock Throw}} and {{m|Rollout}}.}}
{{trainerpkmn|note=f|main=no|Roxanne|Nosepass|{{rock color}}|Roxanne_and_Nosepass.PNG|The next Pokémon Roxanne used in her battle with {{Ash}} was her signature Pokémon, {{p|Nosepass}}. Since {{AP|Pikachu}} had not much experience in using the [[move]] {{m|Iron Tail}} as it had only recently learned it, it was not able to use it effectively against Nosepass. With many powerful attacks like {{m|Zap Cannon}}, {{m|Sandstorm}}, {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Rock Tomb}}, it proved to be a tough opponent for Pikachu. However, eventually Pikachu managed to perfect its Iron Tail, and was able to defeat Nosepass with it, earning Ash the {{badge|Stone}}.

Its English voice actor is [[Darren Dunstan]].}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Roxanne Special.png|thumb|Roxanne and her Nosepass in Pokémon Adventures]]
Roxanne is an honor student at the Pokémon Trainers School of Rustboro and knows much trivia about Pokémon. She's also extremely arrogant about her intellect.

Roxanne travels around by riding on her {{p|Graveler}}. She keeps her {{p|Nosepass}}'s [[Poké Ball]] in a hollowed-out book.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], {{adv|Sapphire}} arrived in Rustboro eager to win her first [[Badge]]. She entered the Rustboro Gym only to see a classroom full of students listening to a lecture from Roxanne.

Roxanne makes her opponents take a written test as part of the Gym challenge. Despite her difficulty with schoolwork, Sapphire got the highest marks in the testing due to her tutoring from her father, [[Professor Birch]].

Sapphire battled with her {{p|Aron}} only to have Roxanne's Nosepass block her attacks with {{m|Harden}}. Sapphire was unable to withdraw her Aron from the battle thanks to Nosepass' {{a|Magnet Pull}}. Sapphire, however, realized that Nosepass must always face north and had her Aron attack from behind.

In the [[Hoenn]] conflict, she sided with [[Team Aqua]]. She had worked with [[Professor Cozmo]], who unknowingly assisted the evil team, and reasoned that the Professor wouldn't support an evil group. She changed her mind after {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} started their rampage.

Roxanne attempted to stop Groudon in [[Lilycove City]] by having her Nosepass use {{m|Block}}. It worked, but during a battle with [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]], the FireHead threatened to kill nearby civilians and so Roxanne yielded, allowing Courtney's {{p|Ninetales}} to knock out Nosepass.

==Quotes==
''"Hello, I am Roxanne, the Rustboro Pokémon Gym Leader. I became a Gym Leader so that I might apply what I learned at the Pokémon Trainer's School in battle. Would you kindly demonstrate how you battle, and with which Pokémon?"''

''"So... I lost... It seems that I still have much more to learn... I understand. The Pokémon League's rules state that Trainers are to be given this if they defeat a Gym Leader. Please accept the official Pokémon League Stone Badge."''

''"Since you are so strong, you should challenge other Gym leaders. By battling many Trainers, you should learn many things."''

Before a rematch:

''"I'm so glad to see you again. I'm Roxanne, the Gym Leader here. I'm sure we've both experienced many battles since we last met. I would like to see how much better we've become. Let us battle!"''

''"I still have much to learn when it comes to battling Pokémon. That awareness makes me love battling all that much more!"''

=== Trainer's Eyes ===
'''Strategy''' -
{{type2|Rock}} power attack

'''Trainer's Pokémon''' -
Rock-solid types are good.

'''Self-Introduction''' -
Through battling, I want to learn all about Pokémon.

==Trivia==
*Roxanne was the first Gym Leader that is encountered first in the region to give out a [[TM]] containing a move of her signature type; both [[Falkner]] and [[Brock]] gave out TMs containing moves not of their specialty type in their respective first appearances, changing to their specialty in their games' [[remake]]s.
*Roxanne is currently the only one out of the four first Gym Leaders who is female.
*Roxanne is the only {{type2|Rock}} Gym Leader who is female.

'''Brock''' (Japanese: '''タケシ''' ''Takeshi'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}, known officially as the [[Pewter Gym]]. He hands out the {{Badge|Boulder}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in training {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon.

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimoribrockoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Brock from {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
Brock's title is "The Rock-Solid Pokémon Trainer." Brock is quite proud of his rock-hard willpower, and uses Rock-type Pokémon to complement this.

Brock is one of the few truly serious professional Pokémon Trainers in the Pewter City area. He's tough, people respect him, and most admire him. Supposedly, it's hard to get him to laugh or drop his serious demeanor, but when he does, he can't stop.

Brock likes to dig for [[fossil]]s in [[Mt. Moon]], which is possibly how he ended up getting a {{p|Kabutops}} and {{p|Omastar}} in [[Generation II]].

In each game, there is only one other Trainer in his gym: a [[Camper]], whose name is Jerry in [[Generation II]] and Liam in [[Generation III]]. This Trainer usually isn't devoted to the Rock-type, and may use pure {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon like {{p|Sandshrew}} and {{p|Diglett}}.

In addition to the Boulder Badge, Brock gives out {{TM|34|Bide}} for in the [[Generation I]] {{pkmn|games}}, and {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}} for the [[Generation III]] remakes instead. While he doesn't give out a [[TM]] in [[Generation II]], however, for the [[Generation IV]] remakes he gives out {{TM|80|Rock Slide}}. In both the Generation I games and their Generation III remakes, one Trainer will not allow for Trainers to pass onto {{rt|3}} until they have defeated Brock. Instead, when Trainers try to leave, he will lead them all the way back to the Pewter Gym.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, after he is defeated, he will offer to [[List of in-game trades|trade]] a {{p|Rhyhorn}} that knows {{m|Thunder Fang}} for a {{p|Bonsly}}. He can be found in [[Diglett's Cave]] near Pewter City every day between noon and 3 PM, and will offer his PokéGear number if he is spoken to. If he is called on Saturday evening, he will be up for a rematch at the [[Fighting Dojo]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Brock-side.jpg|thumb|left|Brock in the original series]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Brock is a [[Pokémon Breeder]] who is a {{ashfr|close friend}} and traveling companion of {{Ash}}'s. Some notes on official sketches of his character set his age at 15 at the start of the series.

He originally trained {{type2|Rock}} [[Pokémon]], but has, since [[EP006|the second episode he appeared in]], diversified. As he has stated in [[DP125|Battling A Cute Drama!]], his philosophy is that the important thing about being a Pokémon Trainer is the bond between Trainer and Pokémon. He is an experienced cook and caretaker by nature, so he always makes scrumptious food both [[Pokémon food|for Pokémon]] and for humans.
[[File:Brock and Nurse Joy.png|thumb|right|Brock flirting with Nurse Joy]]
One of his best known character traits is that he falls in love with every pretty woman he meets, particularly [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]]. He can tell whether they are real (women) or [[Team Rocket|impo]][[Brodie|stors]] as well. This "ability" has been used multiple times in the series. He has always held a supporting role in the series, usually contributing more in terms of wisdom and comedic antics than the action and {{pkmn|battle}}s of the series.

Early on, he showed that he carries around a {{badge|Boulder}} for identification. He also has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Kanto]] region, though he only used it once, as well as one for [[Hoenn]] which was required to watch a contest there. He should still have a [[Poké Ball#Generation II Poké Balls|Heavy Ball]], given to him by [[Kurt]] [[EP144|back in Johto]], but this has apparently been forgotten.

Brock has had two notable musical appearances. One is the Japanese ending theme タケシのパラダイス ''[[Takeshi's Paradise]]'', which is about his love for women and his determination to find love despite often appearing foolish and getting heartbroken. There is a running joke about him singing this song often in the anime, since it's the only song he knows. The other is the [[Pokémon Karaokémon]] song ''[[Two Perfect Girls]]'', which is about his love of both Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy.

===Appearance===
[[Image:TakeshiAG.png|thumb|right|Brock in the ''Advanced Generation'' series]]
Brock's most notable feature about his appearance is that his eyes naturally appear closed. The rare times people see them open are when they are forced open unnaturally: from a hit with {{AP|Charmander's|Charizard}} {{m|Flamethrower}} in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', when being hit in the back of the head by {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}'s tail in ''[[EP050|Who Gets to Keep Togepi?]]'', and when he makes a face for {{AP|Larvitar}} in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]''. This has been the center of fan attention for a long time.

He also has tan skin, notably darker than the skin of any other major character in the series.

Brock is the tallest of {{ashfr|main characters}}, and the closest to looking like an adult. Next to actual adult characters, however, it is clear that he is still a teenager.

Not counting temporary outfits, he has worn {{DL|List of clothing in the anime|Brock|three different outfits}} over the span of the anime, all of which have had the colors orange, green, and brown, with blue shoes. His outfits in the games are also made up of the colors orange, green, and brown.

===Character===
[[Image:Brock's eyes.png|thumb|left|180px|Brock with his eyes open in [[EP260]]]]
Brock is considered the most mature, wise and level-headed of the main characters, and he is arguably the most intelligent character as well. He often acts as an older brother and caretaker to the other characters and a voice of reason in disputes. He will usually place others before him and will help and support his friends even against his better judgment or at his own expense. While he is not shown to battle often, he can understand the situations and strategies in any [[Pokémon battle]], and often explains them to the other characters, probably due to the fact that he was once a [[Gym Leader]]. His wisdom is possibly derived from how observant he is; he can tell just by sight how a Pokémon is feeling and spot the differences between the various [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]].

Brock always carries books and maps with him, and thus is usually the character who knows where the group is headed and what they can do when they get there, though in [[Advanced Generation series|Advanced Generation]] this role was mostly taken over by the [[PokéNav]]. He also carries a lot of other supplies, such as [[potion]]s, [[Pokémon food]], and a set of cookware, as well as practical tools like a brush and pocket knife; in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]'', the extent of his preparedness and comically large capacity of his [[bag]] was demonstrated, as he pulled out a table and full tea set out of his backpack. He is a domestic, and grooms not only his Pokémon but also those of his friends with whom he travels. He handles all the cooking and cleaning for his friends.

Despite this, all his maturity and rationality leaves him completely at the sight of a beautiful woman, as he falls in love with every pretty girl he meets. Brock has a desperate need for female companionship which grows worse as he fails to gain it. He will do anything and everything he thinks will impress women, which inevitably ends with his heart being broken every time. A few women have shown interest in him as well, such as [[Wilhelmina]], [[Temacu]], {{FB|Pike Queen|Lucy}} and [[Holly]], but most do not notice him or are not interested. No matter how many times he is disappointed, though, Brock remains determined to find a girl to start a relationship with, and has indicated several times he would stop traveling with Ash and stay with the girl if this happened. This behavior tends to wear on the nerves of other characters, and [[Misty]] and [[Max]] have both commonly dragged Brock away from women by his ear. Some of Brock's own Pokémon, most notably {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, have attacked him for getting too flirtatious with women.

His goals have played a passive role in his character's activity and development. Unlike other characters, who aspire to achieve and excel in competitive fields like [[Pokémon training]] and [[Pokémon Contest]]s, his aim to become a great Pokémon Breeder is a quiet one and thus does not get showcased frequently. His other goal, to find a girlfriend, is similar to [[Team Rocket]]'s quest to capture {{AP|Pikachu}} in that both are for comedy and thus doomed to fail. His role has always been purely one as support for other main characters.

===History===
[[Image:BrockDP.png|left|thumb|Brock in the ''Diamond & Pearl'' series]]
Not much is known about his early childhood, except that his first Pokémon was his {{TP|Brock|Onix|Steelix}}, which he received as a gift at the age of 10. Sometime after, his father, {{ka|Flint}}, left home to become a great {{pkmn|Trainer}}. When he never returned, his mother, [[Lola]], left them as well, leaving Brock to take care of {{Brocksib|his siblings}}, as well as their house and [[Pewter Gym]], by himself (though the English version of ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' has Flint claim she died, and some speculate he was lying). However, Flint eventually returned home considering himself a failure, and instead of returning to his family he donned a disguise and sold rocks as souvenirs at the edge of town. After Brock awarded Ash the Boulder Badge, Flint came forward and confessed who he was. Flint took on the responsibilities of the Pewter Gym and his family, leaving Brock free to journey with Ash and [[Misty]].

Brock only became the Gym Leader because he felt it was his responsibility, and he admitted to Ash that he would rather care for Pokémon than battle them. It is his dream to become a great breeder, and when Flint took back control of the Gym, Brock was allowed to start following this dream. Most notably, he took care of a {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} that belonged to a breeder named [[Suzy]]. Shortly before Vulpix was returned, Brock used it in a [[Pokémon Beauty Contest]].

Brock was also able to meet and make advances towards the many beautiful women he met. At first, he was more casual about approaching women, such as the [[Officer Jenny]] in [[Cerulean City]], and more modest as well, such as when he met [[Melanie]]. However, he became more open and passionate towards almost all single young women as time progressed.

Brock briefly left the show during the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands saga]] to work for [[Professor Ivy]] on [[Valencia Island]] and so is only seen in a couple of cameos in the [[The Power of One|second movie]]. While there, something happened that will probably remain secret as Brock will only huddle and say "that name" whenever he is asked about it. (Brock does mention his work for her in ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', though this line was added in the dub.) After this incident, Brock returned to Kanto where he was found by [[Delia Ketchum]], who helped him to regain his strength. Brock then became a rival to [[Mimey]] until he rejoined Ash and Misty as the three traveled to [[Johto]]. They stayed together for the entire region, but at the end of this journey, the three went their separate ways, with Brock's help requested at home by his father.

Upon his return home, Brock was dismayed to find that his mother had returned and commandeered the gym, turning the Rock-type haven into a brightly decorated {{type2|Water}} den. Brock battled her for the honor of Rock-types and won, promising his brother [[Forrest]] that he would become Gym Leader someday.

After that, Brock returned to follow Ash through [[Hoenn]], along with their new friends {{an|May}} and [[Max]], and then through Kanto again as Ash took on the Kanto {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}. He left briefly when the Advanced Generation series ended in order to visit his home, but quickly returned and is now traveling with Ash and {{an|Dawn}} in [[Sinnoh]].

Brock is among the longest-lived main characters in the anime, only being absent from the Orange Islands season and thus ranked under only the permanent characters of {{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}.

===Pokémon===
As gym tradition dictated, Brock's first Pokémon were Rock-types. However, once he was able to leave his gym to travel, he has dedicated himself to learn about how to care for a variety of Pokémon. Thus, his Pokémon tend to be an eclectic mix of types and dispositions. However, all of his Pokémon tend to have strong bonds with Brock and are on par with {{Ash}}'s Pokémon in terms of battling strength, despite the fact that Brock does not go out of his way to train his Pokémon.

This listing is of Brock's Pokémon as of the most recent Japanese episode.

==In the manga==
===In Pokémon Adventures===
[[Image:Brock Special.png|right|thumb|Brock and his {{p|Geodude}}]]
Brock debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'' of the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, however he is mentioned earlier by {{adv|Blue}} in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]'' about being bored by no people being able to defeat hm or even get past the preliminaries. To gain access to Brock a Trainer must win several rounds of battles against special Trainers of the Gym, every single one of those battles are watched by him from a special room. In this round Brock is a shirtless Gym Leader who has for his main Pokémon an Onix and for secondary a Graveler and six Geodude, named Geoone, Geotwo, Geothree and so on.

Brock is a brave Trainer and he assists [[Erika]] and [[Misty]] in their {{pkmn|battle}}s against [[Team Rocket]]. He also gave {{adv|Yellow}} a {{p|Graveler}} after the good gym leaders of Kanto battled Agatha.

After Blaine figured out that Red must have been at Mt. Moon Brock volunteered to search there since Mt. Moon was closest to [[Pewter City]]. He then found a cast of {{adv|Red}} frozen in ice there and contacts Blaine. Before all of the information could be exchanged he found out that Pewter City was under attack by a group of [[Bruno]]'s {{p|Machop}}.

Brock also works as a security guard at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]].

===In Electric Tale of Pikachu===
Since the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] is based heavily on the {{pkmn|anime}}, Brock's appearances in it are mostly comparable to his anime appearances. However, he is not constantly traveling with Ash in the manga.

In ''[[ET04|Haunting My Dreams]]'', there are hints about him being [[MangaShipping|in a relationship]] with [[Sabrina]].

==In the TFG==
{{TFG ID|Next Quest|Brock|39}} appears as a rare Trainer figure in the launch set, {{TFG|Next Quest}}, of the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]].

==Trivia==
* Most official sources do not give Brock a last name. However, several sources suggest that in the anime, his last name is Harrison. In the July 2006 issue of [[K-Zone]] Magazine, [[Eric Stuart]] was interviewed and stated that Brock's last name is '''Harrison'''.
* In the anime, Brock's house is located directly behind the Pewter Gym. His room is only seen briefly in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]'', but what is seen of it shows that it is decorated in a traditional Japanese style, including {{wp|fusuma}}, a {{wp|tansu}} chest, and a {{wp|futon}} for a bed.
* Brock owns two {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, {{TP|Brock|Crobat}} and {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, whose names both start with ''Cro-''.
* Brock is currently the only main character of the anime with {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, owning two, {{TP|Brock|Steelix}} and {{TP|Brock|Forretress}}.
* Brock is the fourth main character to own a Pokémon hatched from an egg. The first was [[Misty]] with {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and later {{TP|Misty|Azurill}}, the second was {{Ash}} with {{TP|Ash|Phanpy}}, and the third was {{an|May}} with {{TP|May|Eevee}}.
* Brock is one of three of Ash's friends who has had their father make an appearance in the anime. The others are {{an|May}} and [[Max]], who are brother and sister. Coincidentally, both fathers are Gym Leaders.
* Brock captured a new Pokémon sooner after his debut than any other main character, even Ash, by capturing [[Brock's Crobat|Zubat]] in [[EP006]].
* Brock's ''Advanced Generation'' and ''Diamond & Pearl'' stock art use the same pose, changing only his outfit.
* Brock has been shown to be able to identify when women are really cross dressing men in disguise by having a peculiar lack of attraction to them. He's also able to do the opposite. A significant exception to this is Ash, who in the guise of [[Ashley]] was able to slip through Brock's radar, though this may be attributed to the fact Ash is younger than most of the girls Brock generally seeks out so he might've not payed much attention.
* Brock has owned four Pokémon [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|whose evolutions debuted in a different generation]] than that Pokémon. ({{TP|Brock|Golbat|Crobat}}, {{TP|Brock|Onix|Steelix}}, {{TP|Brock|Bonsly|Sudowoodo}}, and {{TP|Brock|Happiny}}). Of the four, three of them have evolved so far.
*When the {{series|Advanced Generation}} started, Brock brought only his {{TP|Brock|Forretress}} with him. Forretress is not in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]].
* Despite starting out as a Rock-type Gym Leader, of all the Pokémon Brock currently owns, only one is pure Rock-type, {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}. Currently, it is [[party|with him]].
* Brock is the only one out of all of Ash's friends to have owned at least one Pokémon from each of the four generations.
* In the video games (notably, the [[Pokémon Stadium series]]), Brock has been shown with several Pokémon that he would later own in the anime ({{p|Golbat}} in Stadium's Round 2 fight, {{p|Forretress}} in Stadium 2's Round 1 fight, and {{p|Steelix}} in Stadium 2's Round 2 fight).
* Brock is the only one of [[Ash's friends]] to appear in every movie. His appearance in ''[[The Power of One]]'' was merely a cameo though.
* Despite being a Rock-type [[Pokémon Trainer]], none of his Pokémon knew any Rock-type moves in [[Generation I]]. This did not occur in [[Generation III]] due to his chosen TM changing from {{TM|34|Bide}} to {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}}.
* Brock is one of two [[Gym Leader]]s not to give the {{player}} a TM of his {{t|Rock|Gym's specialty type}}, the other being [[Falkner]]. This is only true in [[Generation I]].
** However in [[Generation II]] there was no TM that contained a {{type2|Flying}} move, but in [[Generation I]] there was {{TM|48|Rock Slide}} which is {{type2|Rock}}.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Brock trades the player a {{p|Rhyhorn}} knowing {{m|Thunder Fang}} (an [[egg moves|egg move]]) in exchange for a {{p|Bonsly}}. This may be a reference to his anime counterpart, who is a [[Pokémon Breeder]] and once owned a Bonsly as well before it evolved.
* Out of all of his Pokémon in the handheld games, only {{p|Rampardos|one}} is not double weak against {{t|Grass}}.
* Brock was the only main character not to have any new [[Pokémon]] revealed in the new opening [[The Greatest - Everyday!]]

===Interview with Hidaka about Brock's short absence from the anime===
There had been some debate between members of the fanbase in regards to why Brock was removed from the main cast during the Orange Islands arc, why [[Tracey Sketchit]] was created, and why Brock returned later. In a [http://www.pokebeach.com/news/0708/second-pokemon-interview-with-masamitsu-hidaka-many-interesting-points recent interview] with former Pokémon anime director and storyboard artist [[Masamitsu Hidaka]], he stated his own reason why Brock was removed from the cast and why he eventually returned. He (or, rather his translator) revealed that the true reason they replaced Brock is because, once they realized Pokémon was going global, there was a chance that Americans, if not anyone else outside of Japan, would view Brock as a racist stereotype because of his eyes (even though there wasn't an actual complaint yet). So they created a "tall, anglo-saxon looking person to be on the safe side". They later replaced Tracey with Brock again once they realized that no one really cared as to what Brock looks like, and actually enjoyed his character.

However, this was only stated by Hidaka and not by any other staff member.

'''Ash Ketchum''' (Japanese: '''サトシ''' ''Satoshi'') is the main character of both the [[Pokémon anime]] and the ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]'' manga, and is believed to be based on the {{ga|Red|protagonist}} of the [[Generation I| first generation]] Pokémon games. He shares his Japanese name -- which can be taken to mean "wisdom" or "reason" (智) -- with the creator of the [[Pokémon]] franchise, [[Satoshi Tajiri]]. His English surname is a pun of the original English motto, "[[Gotta Catch 'em All!]]."

{{spoilers}}

==In the anime==
===Character===
[[Image:Anime Ash.png|thumb|Ash Ketchum in the [[original series]]]]
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 and unskilled [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept the irreverent {{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 his Pokémon. This would set his course for the future.
[[File:Ash fleeing spearow.png|thumb|left|250px|Ash trying to keep Pikachu safe]]
However, from that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. He {{pkmn2|caught}} his [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] by luck, knew nothing about [[Pokémon battle|battling]], and was reluctant 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 a 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}} refused to listen to him until [[EP105|Ash could prove himself]] to the powerful Fire-type.

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}}.

[[Image:SatoshiAG.png|thumb|left|Ash in the {{series|Advanced Generation}}]]
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 making it [[Evolution|evolve]], as evidenced by his treatment of {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''. At first, he was hesitant to let his Pokémon evolve to get stronger, but, as shown in the {{series|Advanced Generation}} and {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, he has no problem at all in allowing his team members to reach their evolved forms, except for Pikachu.
[[Image:AshAura.png|thumb|right|240px|Ash using Aura inside the [[Tree of Beginning]]]]
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.

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 "best friend" 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 [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]'' as well as {{an|May}} and [[Max]] in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''.

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.
[[Image:AshWallace.png|thumb|220px|Ash in the [[Wallace Cup]]]]
Ash apparently has a close connection with [[legendary Pokémon]], especially {{an|Ho-Oh}}, {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}}, {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}}, {{p|Azelf}}, {{OBP|Shaymin|movie 11}} and {{an|Giratina}}. In the English dub of the [[The Power of One|second movie]], he was revealed to be "The Chosen One" - 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.

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.

===Family===
[[File:Younger Ash DP138.png|thumb|left|220px|A young Ash]]
Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten.

His father was never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon Trainer that 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 the same storyboarder, Ash's father may or may not be introduced at the series, depending on its necessity to Ash's further maturity and development as a Trainer.

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.

===Pokémon===
[[File:Ash party DP133.png|thumb|280px|Ash and his party from [[DP132|''Evolving Strategies!'']] to [[DP154]]]]
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.

==In the manga==
{{stub|Manga}}
The manga version of Ash Ketchum featured in ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]'' is based on the anime version, but there are many differences between the two. 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, [[May Oak]]. He's also prone to quickly falling in love just like Brock, but to a much more subtle or less extreme degree.

The Ash featured in this manga follows 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|Orange Islands]].

===Appearance===
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 first volume. However, in the sixth chapter of ''Electric Tale'' (''[[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.

==Trivia==
===Pokémon===
[[File:Ash catches a Pokémon.png|thumb|280px|Ash after catching a Pokémon]]
* Ash has captured each [[generation]]'s {{type2|Grass}} [[starter Pokémon]]: {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita|Bayleef}}, {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}} and {{AP|Turtwig|Grotle}}.
* 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]].
** However, he always owns the starter Pokémon not owned by another of {{ashfr|his friends}}.
* 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|Donphan}} in [[Johto]], {{AP|Snorunt|Glalie}} in [[Hoenn]], and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}} in [[Kanto]].
**Of these four, Aipom is the only one not to evolve under Ash's care.
* 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.
* All together, Ash has seen at least twenty-seven different species of legendary Pokémon, and at least ten of them multiple times.
* 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|Monferno}} was formerly owned by Paul.
**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 Monferno evolved under Ash's ownership).
* The three {{type2|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] Ash owns are each at a different evolutionary stage. {{AP|Cyndaquil}} is in its first, {{AP|Monferno}} its second, and {{AP|Charizard}} its third.
* Ash has a tendency to capture crab-based Pokémon when new ones are available - {{AP|Kingler}} and {{AP|Corphish}}.
* Ash also captured a member of each turtle-based evolutionary family.
** Two of the three Pokémon are starters, while the third is a fire type non-starter.
* Three of Ash's current party have evolved whilst battling [[Paul]]; these are {{AP|Grotle}}, {{AP|Staraptor}}, and {{AP|Monferno}}.
** Of those three, Grotle and Staraptor evolved whilst battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].

===Challenges/Gym related===
* 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.
* During his adventures in Kanto, the Orange Islands, and Johto, Ash pinned his badges to the inside of his jacket. From Hoenn onwards, they have been kept in a case.
* Ash has so far battled three [[Elite Four]] members, namely [[Lorelei]], {{EF|Drake}} and [[Agatha]], losing to all three.
* The largest amount of episodes that Ash has gone without obtaining a [[badge]] is currently the gap between the {{ci|Snowpoint}} and {{ci|Sunyshore}} Gyms, which is currently up to [[DP162|35 episodes]]. The shortest amount of time between badges was the one-episode gap between ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.

===Miscellaneous===
[[File:Ash maid.png|200px|thumb|Ash crossdressing for the third time.]]
* 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.
* 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 & Pearl}}. Each time Ash has crossdressed, he was never willing to do so and was coerced or forced into it in some way.
** 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.
* 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 "red ash", "green ash", and "blue ash", for the first three games, but also the "indigo ash", for the [[Indigo Plateau]].

'''Dawn''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリ''' ''Hikari'') is a ten-year-old [[Pokémon Coordinator]] currently traveling through [[Sinnoh]] with {{Ash}} and [[Brock]]. Her goal is to become a great [[Pokémon Coordinator]] like her [[mom#In the anime|mother]], [[Johanna]]. Her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] was a {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} that she received from [[Professor Rowan]] in the [[DP001|first ''Diamond & Pearl'' series episode]].

==Character==
Dawn is notable for her confidence, since she is always looking towards the future rather than dwelling on her mistakes, although she has learned that this is not always enough. In the Japanese version, her catchphrase is, "{{tt|Daijōbu!|'It's fine!' or 'It'll be alright!'}}" Although not consistently translated in the English dub at first, she began to regularly use "No need to worry!" In stark contrast to {{an|May}}'s inexperience and self-doubt at the start of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, Dawn was overly confident and assured in her own strength in the beginning.

[[File:Dawn contest.png|left|thumb|225px|Dawn in her Contest outfit]]
She began her journey with her Piplup. Unlike {{an|May}}, she knew from the beginning that she wanted to be a {{pkmn|Coordinator}}. After meeting Ash and Brock, she decided to journey with them, as their experience would likely be helpful to her. Like Ash, she is lucky enough to have seen a [[legendary Pokémon]] at the start of her journey, the projected soul of {{p|Mesprit}} in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]''. She lost her first {{pkmn|Contest}} in ''[[DP012|Arrival of a Rival!]]'' and ended up getting support from her mother who told her to rely on her friends. Eventually, in her [[DP027|second official Contest]], Dawn narrowly beat her childhood rival {{si|Kenny}} to gain her first [[ribbon]].

In ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night!]]'', when she competed in the [[Hearthome City]] Contest, she lost in the Appeal Round, making her the first of the main characters to lose a Contest by losing the appeal round. In ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', she lost the Appeal Round for second time in a row. This marked a notable change in Dawn's character. Previously, she had only occasionally been seen {{pkmn|training}} for Contests. After the second blow to her self-esteem, she didn't know what to do and was still very upset throughout ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]''. After this, she began to become more focused and regained her confidence after {{pkmn|battle|battling}} [[Maylene]] in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]''. Dawn began to practice in earnest and eventually was able to break her losing streak in ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' and was able to win the [[Wallace Cup]] after narrowly defeating {{an|May}} in the final round. Dawn has since maintained her newfound focus and humility. After learning of the next Contest in [[Celestic Town]], she became very dedicated in her training, and actually overworked her Pokémon in ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]''. Due to her hard work, she managed to win the Contest in ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]''. In ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]'', her {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} began to disobey her after [[Evolution|evolving]]. Despite this, she is still eager to train it well.

While she is the only female main character not to have a sibling, she has two childhood friends that appeared in the {{pkmn|anime}}, {{si|Kenny}} and [[Leona]], both of whom call her '''Dee Dee''' (Japanese: '''ピカリ''' ''Pikari'') sometimes. Dawn has prevented them from telling Ash and Brock about the reason why she has this nickname. She seems to be closer to Leona than to Kenny. Kenny functions as a rival for Dawn alongside [[Zoey]]. Zoey also functions as a semi-mentor to Dawn and helped her recover from her [[DP061|second loss]]. All three are competing for their first time in the regional Contests. Leona, however, challenges [[Gym]]s. She also seemed to be childhood friends with [[Barry]] when she was little, and was very upset that he didn't remember who she was.
[[File:Dawn snow pt.png|thumb|245px|Dawn in her winter clothes]]
Dawn is much more different than any of Ash's {{ashfr|other friends}}. Dawn has more concern about her appearance, as she will not show herself to Ash or Brock until she feels that her appearance is perfect. That may be a reason why she decides to sleep inside a tent while the others sleep outside. However, she has recently been seen sleeping outside with the others, such as in ''[[DP053|Tears for Fears!]]''. Every time she's going to be on camera, she needs to take a moment to brush her hair before going on. In ''[[DP070|The Bells are Singing!]]'', Dawn revealed that she was the one to design {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}'s vest (but also admitted that her mother was the one to sew it). In ''[[DP086|Arriving in Style!]]'', she demonstrated her talent for designing again, sketching many different dresses for the [[Hearthome Collection]], though she rejected all of them.

Also unlike Ash's other friends, Dawn has already crossed a lot of boundaries that have previously only been held by Ash. She saw the aforementioned [[legendary Pokémon]] prior to meeting Ash, and is the first main character to own an {{type2|Electric}} [[Dawn's Pachirisu|Pokémon]] besides Ash. Having caught {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}, {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, and {{AP|Buizel}}, Dawn has captured more Pokémon in her first 35 episodes that any of the other main characters, aside from Ash. She is also the first main character besides Ash to have battled [[Lucian|a member]] of the [[Elite Four]], and the first of [[Ash's friends]] to have defeated a {{p|Phione|legendary Pokémon}} in battle.

She had a [[bicycle]], but like [[Misty]]'s and {{an|May}}'s bikes, [[Ash's Pikachu]] destroyed it with its {{m|Thunderbolt}}. However, she did not mention this to Ash until more than 30 episodes after it happened. Johanna gave Dawn one of her old [[ribbon]]s from her days as a Coordinator as a gift for luck. She also had a large suitcase full of dresses, but her mother made her leave it at home due to its impracticality. She also has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, and her Contest cry is "Spotlight!" (U.S.), or "Charm up!" (Japan).

==Pokémon==
Since starting her journey, the [[Pokémon]] that Dawn acquire tend to be cute and small like her starter, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}. Because she is still a rookie, she may have some rough spots on how to deal with her Pokémon properly. However, she still deeply cares for all her Pokémon, especially Piplup.

This listing is of Dawn's [[Pokémon ]] as of the most recent Japanese episode:

==Trivia==
* Dawn's name is a reference to {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Diamond|s}}, as [[Paul]] references {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}}. "Dawn" may also be a reference to "Hikari," which means "light"--dawn is essentially the day's first light.
[[Image:Dawnpll.JPG|220px|thumb|right|Dawn in [[Pokémon Learning League]]]]
* Like [[I Won't Lose! ~Haruka's Theme~|May]], she has her own [[List of Japanese ending themes|ending theme song]], titled 君のそばで〜ヒカリのテーマ〜 ''[[By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~]]''. It is the first ending of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}. The song is performed by グリン ''Grin''.
* On the [[Pokémon Learning League]] website, [[List of clothing in the anime|her clothing]] has been altered so that her white undershirt has sleeves and she is wearing black stockings or tights.
* Dawn is the first Pokémon Trainer introduced as a novice to not have a {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon be her first evolution, as Ash's first evolving Pokémon was Caterpie, and May's was Wurmple. Dawn's first evolving Pokémon was {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}}.
** The only Pokémon on Dawn's team that have [[Evolution|evolved]] so far are part of a [[Generation II]] evolution family.
* All of the Pokémon Dawn has owned have been members of the {{egg3|Ground}}, though several are in other groups as well.
* Dawn's Latin American Spanish dub actress, Gaby Ugarte, is the sister of Xóchitl Ugarte, [[Misty]]'s Latin American Spanish voice actress. Interestingly, the two characters haven't met yet.
* Dawn's Japanese name is Hikari, and [[Zoey|her rival's]] is Nozomi. The ''Hikari'' and the ''Nozomi'' are two Shinkansen "bullet train" lines. The Nozomi is faster than the Hikari, possibly symbolizing that Zoey is farther along in her coordinating skills than Dawn. It should also be noted that they go in opposite directions.
* All of Dawn's Pokémon (and those she has owned in the past) draw parallels with one or more of Ash's or {{an|May}}'s Pokémon - excluding [[Ash's Buizel]] and [[Dawn's Ambipom]], who are currently owned by Ash or were owned by Ash previously.
** [[Dawn's Piplup]] is similar to [[Ash's Pikachu]] in many ways: it was her [[starter Pokémon]], the two bonded after saving each other from wild Pokémon, and Piplup stays outside its Poké Ball and refuses to evolve.
** [[Dawn's Buneary]] is like [[May's Beautifly]] in that Dawn had wanted to (and in Dawn's case, actually attempted to) capture one in an episode before they actually managed to. It is also their first capture.
** [[Dawn's Pachirisu]] is a parallel to [[May's Skitty]], in that it is often hyper and needs to be calmed down (with a Poffin or toy respectively). It is also Dawn's second capture.
** [[Dawn's Mamoswine]] draws parallels to both [[May's Munchlax]] as a Swinub, in that it lives to eat, and [[Ash's Charizard]] in that it was respectful of its Trainer in its basic form, but disobeyed in its second and third form. It is also similar in that it evolved from its second form to its final form within less than five episodes from evolving the first time. Both Ash's Charizard, Dawn's Mamoswine and May's Munchlax were all the Trainer's fifth captures within their career.
** [[Dawn's Cyndaquil]] is draws parallels to [[May's Squirtle]]. Both are [[starter Pokémon]] from the region focused on in the remakes of their owner's introductory generation, while their owner is based on the female player character of the main games of their generation. It also draws some similarities to [[May's Venusaur]] for some of the same reasons, as both were given to the characters shortly after the release of the starter Pokémon's remake.
* Dawn also shares the same choice for a [[starter Pokémon]] as her rival {{si|Kenny}}.
=== Similarities to Ash ===
* Out of all of {{Ash}}'s {{ashfr|friends}}, Dawn is the only one so far to have her debut episode dedicated completely to herself. Unlike other debut episodes, Ash didn't appear until the last minute. Also in that episode, she saw {{p|Mesprit|a legendary Pokémon}} similar to how Ash did at the start of his journey.
* She is the only main character aside from Ash to challenge an official Pokémon Gym from the games, and the first of Ash's friends to compete in an official Gym Battle in the main series since ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]'', where Brock battled Ash and Misty battled Ash respectively.
** Counting Gym Leaders of any sort (regardless of game appearance), Dawn is only the second main character other than Ash to do this, as Misty challenged [[Dorian]] in ''[[EP256|Just Add Water]]''.
* Dawn is the second main character to have three Pokémon to disobey her: {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} and {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}. Ash's were {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Primeape}}, and {{AP|Charizard}}.
* Like Ash, she has a [[Johanna|mother]] who lives by herself with a [[Johanna's Glameow|Pokémon]] of her own, with no information whatsoever about her father, mirroring [[Delia Ketchum]] and her [[Mimey|Mr. Mime]].
* Like Ash, Dawn has a childhood rival named {{si|Kenny}} who calls her by the nickname "Dee-dee" (Japanese: ピカリ ''Pikari''). Ash's childhood rival {{Gary}} calls him by the nickname "Ashy-boy" (Japanese: サトシくん ''Satoshi-kun'').
* Like Ash, she has an [[Dawn's Pachirisu|Electric-type Pokémon]] that is based off of a rodent.
** She also owns a {{TP|Dawn|Cyndaquil}}.
* Like Ash, Dawn imagined each of the Sinnoh starters before her journey began. She selected the Water-type starter (Piplup), which was Ash's original type choice (Squirtle) in Kanto.

'''Dawn''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリ''' ''Hikari'') is a ten-year-old [[Pokémon Coordinator]] currently traveling through [[Sinnoh]] with {{Ash}} and [[Brock]]. Her goal is to become a great [[Pokémon Coordinator]] like her [[mom#In the anime|mother]], [[Johanna]].

==Character==
Dawn is notable for her confidence, since she is always looking towards the future rather than dwelling on her mistakes, although she has learned that this is not always enough. In the Japanese version, her catchphrase is, "{{tt|Daijōbu!|'It's fine!' or 'It'll be alright!'}}" Although not consistently translated in the English dub at first, she began to regularly use "No need to worry!" In stark contrast to {{an|May}}'s inexperience and self-doubt at the start of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, Dawn was overly confident and assured in her own strength in the beginning.

Dawn began to practice in earnest and eventually was able to break her losing streak in ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' and was able to win the [[Wallace Cup]] after narrowly defeating {{an|May}} in the final round. Dawn has since maintained her newfound focus and humility. After learning of the next Contest in [[Celestic Town]], she became very dedicated in her training, and actually overworked her Pokémon in ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]''. Due to her hard work, she managed to win the Contest in ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]''. In ''[[DP106|A Breed Stampede!]]'', her {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} began to disobey her after [[Evolution|evolving]]. Despite this, she is still eager to train it well.

While she is the only female main character not to have a sibling, she has two childhood friends that appeared in the {{pkmn|anime}}, {{si|Kenny}} and [[Leona]], both of whom call her '''Dee Dee''' (Japanese: '''ピカリ''' ''Pikari'') sometimes. Dawn has prevented them from telling Ash and Brock about the reason why she has this nickname. She seems to be closer to Leona than to Kenny. Kenny functions as a rival for Dawn alongside [[Zoey]]. Zoey also functions as a semi-mentor to Dawn and helped her recover from her [[DP061|second loss]]. All three are competing for their first time in the regional Contests. Leona, however, challenges [[Gym]]s. She also seemed to be childhood friends with [[Barry]] when she was little, and was very upset that he didn't remember who she was.
[[File:Dawn snow pt.png|thumb|245px|Dawn in her winter clothes]]
Dawn is much more different than any of Ash's {{ashfr|other friends}}. Dawn has more concern about her appearance, as she will not show herself to Ash or Brock until she feels that her appearance is perfect. That may be a reason why she decides to sleep inside a tent while the others sleep outside. However, she has recently been seen sleeping outside with the others, such as in ''[[DP053|Tears for Fears!]]''. Every time she's going to be on camera, she needs to take a moment to brush her hair before going on. In ''[[DP070|The Bells are Singing!]]'', Dawn revealed that she was the one to design {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}'s vest (but also admitted that her mother was the one to sew it). In ''[[DP086|Arriving in Style!]]'', she demonstrated her talent for designing again, sketching many different dresses for the [[Hearthome Collection]], though she rejected all of them.

Also unlike Ash's other friends, Dawn has already crossed a lot of boundaries that have previously only been held by Ash. She saw the aforementioned [[legendary Pokémon]] prior to meeting Ash, and is the first main character to own an {{type2|Electric}} [[Dawn's Pachirisu|Pokémon]] besides Ash. Having caught {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}, {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, and {{AP|Buizel}}, Dawn has captured more Pokémon in her first 35 episodes that any of the other main characters, aside from Ash. She is also the first main character besides Ash to have battled [[Lucian|a member]] of the [[Elite Four]], and the first of [[Ash's friends]] to have defeated a {{p|Phione|legendary Pokémon}} in battle.

She had a [[bicycle]], but like [[Misty]]'s and {{an|May}}'s bikes, [[Ash's Pikachu]] destroyed it with its {{m|Thunderbolt}}. However, she did not mention this to Ash until more than 30 episodes after it happened. Johanna gave Dawn one of her old [[ribbon]]s from her days as a Coordinator as a gift for luck. She also had a large suitcase full of dresses, but her mother made her leave it at home due to its impracticality. She also has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Sinnoh]] region, and her Contest cry is "Spotlight!" (U.S.), or "Charm up!" (Japan).

==Pokémon==
Since starting her journey, the [[Pokémon]] that Dawn acquire tend to be cute and small like her starter, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}. Because she is still a rookie, she may have some rough spots on how to deal with her Pokémon properly. However, she still deeply cares for all her Pokémon, especially Piplup.

This listing is of Dawn's [[Pokémon ]] as of the most recent Japanese episode:

==Trivia==
* Dawn's name is a reference to {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Diamond|s}}, as [[Paul]] references {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}}. "Dawn" may also be a reference to "Hikari," which means "light"--dawn is essentially the day's first light.
[[Image:Dawnpll.JPG|220px|thumb|right|Dawn in [[Pokémon Learning League]]]]
* Like [[I Won't Lose! ~Haruka's Theme~|May]], she has her own [[List of Japanese ending themes|ending theme song]], titled 君のそばで〜ヒカリのテーマ〜 ''[[By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~]]''. It is the first ending of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}. The song is performed by グリン ''Grin''.
* On the [[Pokémon Learning League]] website, [[List of clothing in the anime|her clothing]] has been altered so that her white undershirt has sleeves and she is wearing black stockings or tights.
* Dawn is the first Pokémon Trainer introduced as a novice to not have a {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon be her first evolution, as Ash's first evolving Pokémon was Caterpie, and May's was Wurmple. Dawn's first evolving Pokémon was {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}}.
** The only Pokémon on Dawn's team that have [[Evolution|evolved]] so far are part of a [[Generation II]] evolution family.
* All of the Pokémon Dawn has owned have been members of the {{egg3|Ground}}, though several are in other groups as well.
* Dawn's Latin American Spanish dub actress, Gaby Ugarte, is the sister of Xóchitl Ugarte, [[Misty]]'s Latin American Spanish voice actress. Interestingly, the two characters haven't met yet.
* Dawn's Japanese name is Hikari, and [[Zoey|her rival's]] is Nozomi. The ''Hikari'' and the ''Nozomi'' are two Shinkansen "bullet train" lines. The Nozomi is faster than the Hikari, possibly symbolizing that Zoey is farther along in her coordinating skills than Dawn. It should also be noted that they go in opposite directions.
* All of Dawn's Pokémon (and those she has owned in the past) draw parallels with one or more of Ash's or {{an|May}}'s Pokémon - excluding [[Ash's Buizel]] and [[Dawn's Ambipom]], who are currently owned by Ash or were owned by Ash previously.
** [[Dawn's Piplup]] is similar to [[Ash's Pikachu]] in many ways: it was her [[starter Pokémon]], the two bonded after saving each other from wild Pokémon, and Piplup stays outside its Poké Ball and refuses to evolve.
** [[Dawn's Buneary]] is like [[May's Beautifly]] in that Dawn had wanted to (and in Dawn's case, actually attempted to) capture one in an episode before they actually managed to. It is also their first capture.
** [[Dawn's Pachirisu]] is a parallel to [[May's Skitty]], in that it is often hyper and needs to be calmed down (with a Poffin or toy respectively). It is also Dawn's second capture.
** [[Dawn's Mamoswine]] draws parallels to both [[May's Munchlax]] as a Swinub, in that it lives to eat, and [[Ash's Charizard]] in that it was respectful of its Trainer in its basic form, but disobeyed in its second and third form. It is also similar in that it evolved from its second form to its final form within less than five episodes from evolving the first time. Both Ash's Charizard, Dawn's Mamoswine and May's Munchlax were all the Trainer's fifth captures within their career.
** [[Dawn's Cyndaquil]] is draws parallels to [[May's Squirtle]]. Both are [[starter Pokémon]] from the region focused on in the remakes of their owner's introductory generation, while their owner is based on the female player character of the main games of their generation. It also draws some similarities to [[May's Venusaur]] for some of the same reasons, as both were given to the characters shortly after the release of the starter Pokémon's remake.
* Dawn also shares the same choice for a [[starter Pokémon]] as her rival {{si|Kenny}}.
=== Similarities to Ash ===
* Out of all of {{Ash}}'s {{ashfr|friends}}, Dawn is the only one so far to have her debut episode dedicated completely to herself. Unlike other debut episodes, Ash didn't appear until the last minute. Also in that episode, she saw {{p|Mesprit|a legendary Pokémon}} similar to how Ash did at the start of his journey.
* She is the only main character aside from Ash to challenge an official Pokémon Gym from the games, and the first of Ash's friends to compete in an official Gym Battle in the main series since ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'' and ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]'', where Brock battled Ash and Misty battled Ash respectively.
** Counting Gym Leaders of any sort (regardless of game appearance), Dawn is only the second main character other than Ash to do this, as Misty challenged [[Dorian]] in ''[[EP256|Just Add Water]]''.
* Dawn is the second main character to have three Pokémon to disobey her: {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}} and {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}. Ash's were {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Primeape}}, and {{AP|Charizard}}.
* Like Ash, she has a [[Johanna|mother]] who lives by herself with a [[Johanna's Glameow|Pokémon]] of her own, with no information whatsoever about her father, mirroring [[Delia Ketchum]] and her [[Mimey|Mr. Mime]].
* Like Ash, Dawn has a childhood rival named {{si|Kenny}} who calls her by the nickname "Dee-dee" (Japanese: ピカリ ''Pikari''). Ash's childhood rival {{Gary}} calls him by the nickname "Ashy-boy" (Japanese: サトシくん ''Satoshi-kun'').
* Like Ash, she has an [[Dawn's Pachirisu|Electric-type Pokémon]] that is based off of a rodent.
** She also owns a {{TP|Dawn|Cyndaquil}}.
* Like Ash, Dawn imagined each of the Sinnoh starters before her journey began. She selected the Water-type starter (Piplup), which was Ash's original type choice (Squirtle) in Kanto.

'''Jessie''' (Japanese: '''ムサシ''' ''Musashi'') is one member of of the [[Team Rocket]] trio also consisting of [[James]] and {{MTR}}, that follows around {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|friends}} in the [[Pokémon anime]], usually trying to steal [[Ash's Pikachu]], but always failing.

==In the anime==
{{incomplete|section}}
===Character===
[[image:DPJessie.png|left|thumb|280px|Jessie]]
Jessie's mother, [[Miyamoto]], was a high-ranking Team Rocket agent. When Jessie was around the age of three, Miyamoto left on a mission to the {{wp|Andes}} to record the voice of the elusive Pokémon {{p|Mew}}. However, after Miyamoto disappeared, Jessie was put into a foster home which had very little money. There were times when she had no choice but to eat snow because of a lack of more nourishing food.

When she was old enough, she left home to become a Pokémon nurse in [[Johto]]. However, the school she was enrolled in was literally for ''Pokémon'' nurses (i.e. {{p|Chansey}}), so she failed to graduate and left, leaving behind a [[Nurse Joy's Blissey|Chansey]] she had befriended there. In the episode ''[[EP129|Ignorance is Blissey]]'', Jessie was reunited with that same Chansey, which had since evolved into a {{p|Blissey}}. It is assumed that she then traveled back to [[Kanto]], where she enrolled in [[Pokémon Tech]], a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s school, she met [[James]], and subsequently failed and dropped out. After this, Jessie and James joined a bicycle gang in [[Sunny Town]], where Jessie was known for swinging a chain above her head as she rode her bike, acquiring the nickname "Chainer Jess".

Due to conflicts in canon between Kanto and Johto episodes and the special episode ''[[H012|Training Daze]]'', what happened between Jessie and James after the bike gang is unknown. What ''is'' known, as shown in the special episode, is that they joined Team Rocket separately and were on initially unfriendly terms after being grouped with {{MTR}} but they quickly made up and became good friends.
[[File:Jessie hair.png|thumb|Jessie after beating up her Seviper for biting off her hair|220px]]
Sometime before joining Team Rocket, and it is not known when, Jessie obtained a [[Contest Pass]] in the [[Hoenn]] region. Also during the years before Team Rocket, she had several boyfriends, all of whom left her and/or treated her badly. In ''[[EP234|Xatu the Future]]'', she revealed that she had once worked at a T.V. station as the weathergirl. In ''[[AG156|From Cradle to Save]]'', it was revealed that she once was a ninja. In [[Crossing Paths]], it was revealed that she had a crush on a boy she had gone to school with named [[Astin]], who has a current-day counterpart [[Austin|with a similar name]].

She has a long-standing bitter rivalry with [[Cassidy]], another member of Team Rocket. And Team Rocket member {{an|Wendy}} held a grudge against Jessie for failing to pay for a drink (making Wendy pay), but got her revenge when she added the charge to Jessie's overall Team Rocket bill.

Jessie seems to have a special preference for snake-like Pokémon, owning both an {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and a {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. In ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké Showdown]]'', she expressed a preference for {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon in general.

It is revealed in [[EP048|Holy Matrimony!]] that Jessie is almost identical in appearance to James's fiancée, [[Jessiebelle]], with the two of them having virtually identical faces and only noticeable physical differences between them being eye color, hairstyle, and slightly different hair colors. Meowth in particular takes notice of this and frequently reminds Jessie of the fact throughout the episode, something she takes strong offense to due to Jessiebelle's reprehensible personality. Interestingly enough by the time the subject of Jessiebelle is breached again in [[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]] she seems to have forgotten about her doppelganger and needs Meowth to remind her of who she is. The resemblance between the two was further explored in [[DP153]] when she disguised herself as Jessiebelle in order to grant herself, James, and Meowth, entrance one of James's family mansions without James having to do so himself.

Jessie is also known to be very vain and is also prone to explosive anger. She values her appearance, and she can get furious when her face or hair is damaged, such as in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]'', ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile!]]'' and ''[[AG008|A Tail with a Twist]]''. When this happens, she may do things like beat up a Pokémon such as {{MTR}} or her {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. Furthermore, Jessie goes into a violent outrage whenever someone insults her beauty by calling her old, such as the episode ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'' when [[Misty]] calls Jessie an "old hag" (Japanese: ''oba-san''). She spitted fire in extreme anger after Misty called her that name in that episode. She is also angered (compared to her companions, who are usually depressed when they fail at something) when missions are either failed or botched, which is a regular thing. This anger was intensely demonstrated in the Indigo League, Orange Islands and part of the Johto League story arcs. However, her anger tantrums started to become less intense over the next two story arcs, and her anger has always appeared far more intense in the dub than in the original, which is a contrast of Lillis's vocal performance to Hayashibara's.
[[File:Jessie Jessebella.png|thumb|As Jessebella]]
Starting in [[Hoenn]], Jessie became a [[Pokémon Coordinator]], entering every contest that she could. She frequently made it to the battle round, but usually lost there. However, in ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith]]'', she finally succeeded in winning an (unofficial) contest by using [[Ash's Aipom]], which she had saved earlier in the episode. And, in ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', she won an official contest with her Dustox at [[Solaceon Town]]. Later in ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist]]'', she won a ribbon with help of her Yanmega. She has [[Contest Pass]]es to compete in the Hoenn, Kanto, and Sinnoh regions.

In the Kanto contests, Jessie [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] herself as ''Jessebella'' (Japanese: '''ムサぴょん''' ''Musa-pyon'') wearing a red dress and glasses. Eventually, Ash, Brock, Max and May found out her true identity in the last contest.
[[File:Jessalina.png|thumb|left|220px|Jessie disguised as Jessalina]]
During the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], Jessie dressed up as ''Jessadia'' (Japanese: '''プリティ・ムサリン''' ''Pretty Musalin'') and wore glasses, long white socks, a yellow and orange dress, and had her hair in pigtails. She worked there as an announcer and [[Lilian Meridian]]'s assistant; Lilian herself said she did not really like "Jessadia"'s style, but recognized her talent.
[[File:Jessadia.png|thumb|As Jessadia]]
In Sinnoh {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s, Jessie disguised herself as ''Jessalina'' (Japanese: '''キャンディ・ムサリーナ''' ''Candy Musalina''), using big glasses and an orange dress. She was notable for the fact that, in the appeals round of a contest, Jessie tended to use her Pokémon to show herself off, rather than showing them off. In the Latin American dub, she entered Super Contests under the name Jessiebella (referencing Jessiebelle again).

In ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' and ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' she once again used her Jessadia disguise to report on the [[Wallace Cup]].

Although Jessie entered mostly every contest in Hoenn and Kanto, she lost in all of them, whether it was the first match of the Battle Rounds or the finals. However, in the Sinnoh region, so far she has won two ribbons herself using her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, and obtained a third ribbon after James won a contest in her place.

She's also used other aliases to disguise herself under, such as ''Jessilinda'' during her time at the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] and ''Jessilynlyn'' while competing in the [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]]. Against [[Marilyn]] in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]'', she used the alias ''Jessirilyn''.

===Pokémon===
As with the standards set by the Team Rocket organization, Jessie initially started off with mainly {{type2|Poison}}s. However, as the anime continued onward, her team has diversified. However, she is still strongly associated with Poison-type serpentine Pokémon, such as Arbok and Seviper. Most of her other Pokémon tend to be unusual in appearance and don't usually fit the general image of "cute". However, she does display a desire to obtain Pokémon that are considered "adorable" when the opportunity presents itself, especially feminine Pokémon such as {{p|Happiny}} or {{p|Smoochum}}. Her attraction towards Smoochum is actually shown in several episodes, such as ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby]]'' and ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]''. She was also attracted to a {{p|Weavile}} in ''[[AG185|Duels of the Jungle!]]''. Occasionally, she manages to take control of some powerful Pokémon, but due to either inexperience or hubris, this often backfires and loses control of them. She doesn't appear to train her Pokémon that often. Instead, they are often used to fight against Ash and his friends. When she enters contests, she tends to involve herself in her Pokémon's appeals. She is also very fond of {{p|Dratini}}, as evidenced in [[EP035]] and ''[[EP252|Fangs For Nothin!]]''.

==In the games==
==={{game|Yellow}}===
Both Jessie and James appear in Pokémon Yellow as in-game bosses. They first attack the main character in [[Mt. Moon]], while trying to take one of the rare [[fossil]]s uncovered there.

Later, in [[Celadon City]]'s [[Rocket Game Corner]], Jessie and James guard Giovanni's room in the Team Rocket base. During that time, as the player runs into them, they are eager for revenge after the main character busted up their plans at Mt. Moon.

They hold Mr. Fuji hostage at [[Pokémon Tower]]. They attack the {{ga|Red|main character}} on the seventh floor.

Finally, at [[Silph Co.]] in [[Saffron City]], Jessie and James make their final appearance, once again trying to stall the main character from reaching [[Giovanni|their Boss]].

Unlike in the anime, Jessie and James do not follow the main character around and come up with their usual evil plans to capture Pikachu.

===Pokémon Puzzle League===
Along with many other anime characters, both Jessie and James appeared in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]].

==In the TCG==
Jessie and James appear on both versions of the card {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Here Comes Team Rocket!|15}}, which originally released in the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} set; it was re-released with different artwork in {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}}. In that expansion, there was also a preconstructed [[Theme Deck]] based on {{TCG|Jessie}}. 

==In the manga==
{{incomplete|section}}
===[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]===
Jessie and James both made an appearance in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}, which was based off of the anime.

While Jessie's role in the Pokémon anime has not yet ended, in this manga, she ended up [[RocketShipping|married to James]] and having a baby on the way.

==Trivia==
* Both Jessie and [[James]] have used a {{p|Charizard}} at separate times. They used a third one together as well. None of the three remained in their care, however.
[[Image:Jessie's_Lure.jpg‎|Jessie's special lure|thumb]]
* In Sinnoh, she dressed up as a cowgirl and she was called Catherine Jessieburn. This is a direct reference to the legendary Hollywood actress {{wp|Katharine Hepburn}}.
* Jessie is currently the only member of the anime's main cast who is traveling with a Pokémon not in the extended Sinnoh Dex. In fact, she has two; {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} and {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}.
* Much like [[Misty's special lure|Misty's]], Jessie also has a special lure being modeled after her, like seen in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]''.
* In ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom!]]'', Jessie had {{wp|sinusitis}}.
* In the main series games, Jessie and [[James]] are the only characters from [[Generation I]] to appear only in that generation, as they do not reappear in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] when [[Kanto]] is revisited, and (being exclusive to [[Pokémon Yellow Version|Pokémon Yellow]]) were not adapted into the [[Generation III]] [[Pokémon_FireRed_and_LeafGreen_Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]] remakes.
* Jessie's hair color changed from red to magenta in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin at You, Elekid]]''. This was because this episode was the first to feature digital colored animation, and was possibly due to Jessie's updated Sugimori artwork featuring magenta hair. In all the hand-colored cel animated episodes before the latter, Jessie's hair color was red.
* Jessie is currently the only main character whose Pokémon on hand are all fully evolved.
* All of Jessie's Pokémon which have a confirmed gender a female, these Pokémon being {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}} and {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} both of which are are based on insects.

===Name origin===
[[File:Jessie and James.png|thumb|200px|James and Jessie]]
Jessie's English name is taken from {{wp|Jesse James}}, an American outlaw. Her Japanese name, Musashi, is taken from 宮本武蔵 ''{{wp|Miyamoto Musashi}}'', a famous Japanese swordsman. In his most famous duel, he defeated his rival, 佐々木小次郎 ''{{wp|Sasaki Kojirō}}'', after whom James got his Japanese name. However, one can argue that she is also named after the Japanese battleship {{wp|Musashi}}, as her rival [[Cassidy]]'s Japanese name is based off of the Japanese battleship {{wp|Yamato}}.

She is based on a combination of [[Takeshi Shudō]]'s old girlfriend from when he was in school and the female antagonist of the ''[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1472 Time Bokan]'' anime series.

'''Jessie''' (Japanese: '''ムサシ''' ''Musashi'') is one member of of the [[Team Rocket]] trio also consisting of [[James]] and {{MTR}}, that follows around {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|friends}} in the [[Pokémon anime]], usually trying to steal [[Ash's Pikachu]], but always failing.

==In the anime==
{{incomplete|section}}
===Character===
[[image:DPJessie.png|left|thumb|280px|Jessie]]
Jessie's mother, [[Miyamoto]], was a high-ranking Team Rocket agent. When Jessie was around the age of three, Miyamoto left on a mission to the {{wp|Andes}} to record the voice of the elusive Pokémon {{p|Mew}}. However, after Miyamoto disappeared, Jessie was put into a foster home which had very little money. There were times when she had no choice but to eat snow because of a lack of more nourishing food.

When she was old enough, she left home to become a Pokémon nurse in [[Johto]]. However, the school she was enrolled in was literally for ''Pokémon'' nurses (i.e. {{p|Chansey}}), so she failed to graduate and left, leaving behind a [[Nurse Joy's Blissey|Chansey]] she had befriended there. In the episode ''[[EP129|Ignorance is Blissey]]'', Jessie was reunited with that same Chansey, which had since evolved into a {{p|Blissey}}. It is assumed that she then traveled back to [[Kanto]], where she enrolled in [[Pokémon Tech]], a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s school, she met [[James]], and subsequently failed and dropped out. After this, Jessie and James joined a bicycle gang in [[Sunny Town]], where Jessie was known for swinging a chain above her head as she rode her bike, acquiring the nickname "Chainer Jess".

Due to conflicts in canon between Kanto and Johto episodes and the special episode ''[[H012|Training Daze]]'', what happened between Jessie and James after the bike gang is unknown. What ''is'' known, as shown in the special episode, is that they joined Team Rocket separately and were on initially unfriendly terms after being grouped with {{MTR}} but they quickly made up and became good friends.
[[File:Jessie hair.png|thumb|Jessie after beating up her Seviper for biting off her hair|220px]]
Sometime before joining Team Rocket, and it is not known when, Jessie obtained a [[Contest Pass]] in the [[Hoenn]] region. Also during the years before Team Rocket, she had several boyfriends, all of whom left her and/or treated her badly. In ''[[EP234|Xatu the Future]]'', she revealed that she had once worked at a T.V. station as the weathergirl. In ''[[AG156|From Cradle to Save]]'', it was revealed that she once was a ninja. In [[Crossing Paths]], it was revealed that she had a crush on a boy she had gone to school with named [[Astin]], who has a current-day counterpart [[Austin|with a similar name]].

She has a long-standing bitter rivalry with [[Cassidy]], another member of Team Rocket. And Team Rocket member {{an|Wendy}} held a grudge against Jessie for failing to pay for a drink (making Wendy pay), but got her revenge when she added the charge to Jessie's overall Team Rocket bill.

Jessie seems to have a special preference for snake-like Pokémon, owning both an {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and a {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. In ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké Showdown]]'', she expressed a preference for {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon in general.

It is revealed in [[EP048|Holy Matrimony!]] that Jessie is almost identical in appearance to James's fiancée, [[Jessiebelle]], with the two of them having virtually identical faces and only noticeable physical differences between them being eye color, hairstyle, and slightly different hair colors. Meowth in particular takes notice of this and frequently reminds Jessie of the fact throughout the episode, something she takes strong offense to due to Jessiebelle's reprehensible personality. Interestingly enough by the time the subject of Jessiebelle is breached again in [[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]] she seems to have forgotten about her doppelganger and needs Meowth to remind her of who she is. The resemblance between the two was further explored in [[DP153]] when she disguised herself as Jessiebelle in order to grant herself, James, and Meowth, entrance one of James's family mansions without James having to do so himself.

Jessie is also known to be very vain and is also prone to explosive anger. She values her appearance, and she can get furious when her face or hair is damaged, such as in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]'', ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile!]]'' and ''[[AG008|A Tail with a Twist]]''. When this happens, she may do things like beat up a Pokémon such as {{MTR}} or her {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. Furthermore, Jessie goes into a violent outrage whenever someone insults her beauty by calling her old, such as the episode ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'' when [[Misty]] calls Jessie an "old hag" (Japanese: ''oba-san''). She spitted fire in extreme anger after Misty called her that name in that episode. She is also angered (compared to her companions, who are usually depressed when they fail at something) when missions are either failed or botched, which is a regular thing. This anger was intensely demonstrated in the Indigo League, Orange Islands and part of the Johto League story arcs. However, her anger tantrums started to become less intense over the next two story arcs, and her anger has always appeared far more intense in the dub than in the original, which is a contrast of Lillis's vocal performance to Hayashibara's.
[[File:Jessie Jessebella.png|thumb|As Jessebella]]
Starting in [[Hoenn]], Jessie became a [[Pokémon Coordinator]], entering every contest that she could. She frequently made it to the battle round, but usually lost there. However, in ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith]]'', she finally succeeded in winning an (unofficial) contest by using [[Ash's Aipom]], which she had saved earlier in the episode. And, in ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', she won an official contest with her Dustox at [[Solaceon Town]]. Later in ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist]]'', she won a ribbon with help of her Yanmega. She has [[Contest Pass]]es to compete in the Hoenn, Kanto, and Sinnoh regions.

In the Kanto contests, Jessie [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] herself as ''Jessebella'' (Japanese: '''ムサぴょん''' ''Musa-pyon'') wearing a red dress and glasses. Eventually, Ash, Brock, Max and May found out her true identity in the last contest.
[[File:Jessalina.png|thumb|left|220px|Jessie disguised as Jessalina]]
During the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], Jessie dressed up as ''Jessadia'' (Japanese: '''プリティ・ムサリン''' ''Pretty Musalin'') and wore glasses, long white socks, a yellow and orange dress, and had her hair in pigtails. She worked there as an announcer and [[Lilian Meridian]]'s assistant; Lilian herself said she did not really like "Jessadia"'s style, but recognized her talent.
[[File:Jessadia.png|thumb|As Jessadia]]
In Sinnoh {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s, Jessie disguised herself as ''Jessalina'' (Japanese: '''キャンディ・ムサリーナ''' ''Candy Musalina''), using big glasses and an orange dress. She was notable for the fact that, in the appeals round of a contest, Jessie tended to use her Pokémon to show herself off, rather than showing them off. In the Latin American dub, she entered Super Contests under the name Jessiebella (referencing Jessiebelle again).

In ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' and ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' she once again used her Jessadia disguise to report on the [[Wallace Cup]].

Although Jessie entered mostly every contest in Hoenn and Kanto, she lost in all of them, whether it was the first match of the Battle Rounds or the finals. However, in the Sinnoh region, so far she has won two ribbons herself using her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, and obtained a third ribbon after James won a contest in her place.

She's also used other aliases to disguise herself under, such as ''Jessilinda'' during her time at the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] and ''Jessilynlyn'' while competing in the [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]]. Against [[Marilyn]] in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]'', she used the alias ''Jessirilyn''.

===Pokémon===
As with the standards set by the Team Rocket organization, Jessie initially started off with mainly {{type2|Poison}}s. However, as the anime continued onward, her team has diversified. However, she is still strongly associated with Poison-type serpentine Pokémon, such as Arbok and Seviper. Most of her other Pokémon tend to be unusual in appearance and don't usually fit the general image of "cute". However, she does display a desire to obtain Pokémon that are considered "adorable" when the opportunity presents itself, especially feminine Pokémon such as {{p|Happiny}} or {{p|Smoochum}}. Her attraction towards Smoochum is actually shown in several episodes, such as ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby]]'' and ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]''. She was also attracted to a {{p|Weavile}} in ''[[AG185|Duels of the Jungle!]]''. Occasionally, she manages to take control of some powerful Pokémon, but due to either inexperience or hubris, this often backfires and loses control of them. She doesn't appear to train her Pokémon that often. Instead, they are often used to fight against Ash and his friends. When she enters contests, she tends to involve herself in her Pokémon's appeals. She is also very fond of {{p|Dratini}}, as evidenced in [[EP035]] and ''[[EP252|Fangs For Nothin!]]''.

==In the games==
==={{game|Yellow}}===
Both Jessie and James appear in Pokémon Yellow as in-game bosses. They first attack the main character in [[Mt. Moon]], while trying to take one of the rare [[fossil]]s uncovered there.

Later, in [[Celadon City]]'s [[Rocket Game Corner]], Jessie and James guard Giovanni's room in the Team Rocket base. During that time, as the player runs into them, they are eager for revenge after the main character busted up their plans at Mt. Moon.

They hold Mr. Fuji hostage at [[Pokémon Tower]]. They attack the {{ga|Red|main character}} on the seventh floor.

Finally, at [[Silph Co.]] in [[Saffron City]], Jessie and James make their final appearance, once again trying to stall the main character from reaching [[Giovanni|their Boss]].

Unlike in the anime, Jessie and James do not follow the main character around and come up with their usual evil plans to capture Pikachu.

===Pokémon Puzzle League===
Along with many other anime characters, both Jessie and James appeared in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]].

==In the TCG==
Jessie and James appear on both versions of the card {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Here Comes Team Rocket!|15}}, which originally released in the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} set; it was re-released with different artwork in {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}}. In that expansion, there was also a preconstructed [[Theme Deck]] based on {{TCG|Jessie}}. 

==In the manga==
{{incomplete|section}}
===[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]===
Jessie and James both made an appearance in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}, which was based off of the anime.

While Jessie's role in the Pokémon anime has not yet ended, in this manga, she ended up [[RocketShipping|married to James]] and having a baby on the way.

|}

==Trivia==
* Both Jessie and [[James]] have used a {{p|Charizard}} at separate times. They used a third one together as well. None of the three remained in their care, however.
[[Image:Jessie's_Lure.jpg‎|Jessie's special lure|thumb]]
* In Sinnoh, she dressed up as a cowgirl and she was called Catherine Jessieburn. This is a direct reference to the legendary Hollywood actress {{wp|Katharine Hepburn}}.
* Jessie is currently the only member of the anime's main cast who is traveling with a Pokémon not in the extended Sinnoh Dex. In fact, she has two; {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} and {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}.
* Much like [[Misty's special lure|Misty's]], Jessie also has a special lure being modeled after her, like seen in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]''.
* In ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom!]]'', Jessie had {{wp|sinusitis}}.
* In the main series games, Jessie and [[James]] are the only characters from [[Generation I]] to appear only in that generation, as they do not reappear in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] when [[Kanto]] is revisited, and (being exclusive to [[Pokémon Yellow Version|Pokémon Yellow]]) were not adapted into the [[Generation III]] [[Pokémon_FireRed_and_LeafGreen_Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]] remakes.
* Jessie's hair color changed from red to magenta in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin at You, Elekid]]''. This was because this episode was the first to feature digital colored animation, and was possibly due to Jessie's updated Sugimori artwork featuring magenta hair. In all the hand-colored cel animated episodes before the latter, Jessie's hair color was red.
* Jessie is currently the only main character whose Pokémon on hand are all fully evolved.
* All of Jessie's Pokémon which have a confirmed gender a female, these Pokémon being {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}} and {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} both of which are bug/flying types and are based on insects.

===Name origin===
[[File:Jessie and James.png|thumb|200px|James and Jessie]]
Jessie's English name is taken from {{wp|Jesse James}}, an American outlaw. Her Japanese name, Musashi, is taken from 宮本武蔵 ''{{wp|Miyamoto Musashi}}'', a famous Japanese swordsman. In his most famous duel, he defeated his rival, 佐々木小次郎 ''{{wp|Sasaki Kojirō}}'', after whom James got his Japanese name. However, one can argue that she is also named after the Japanese battleship {{wp|Musashi}}, as her rival [[Cassidy]]'s Japanese name is based off of the Japanese battleship {{wp|Yamato}}.

She is based on a combination of [[Takeshi Shudō]]'s old girlfriend from when he was in school and the female antagonist of the ''[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1472 Time Bokan]'' anime series.

'''Jessie''' (Japanese: '''ムサシ''' ''Musashi'') is one member of of the [[Team Rocket]] trio also consisting of [[James]] and {{MTR}}, that follows around {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|friends}} in the [[Pokémon anime]], usually trying to steal [[Ash's Pikachu]], but always failing.

==In the anime==
{{incomplete|section}}
===Character===
[[image:DPJessie.png|left|thumb|280px|Jessie]]
Jessie's mother, [[Miyamoto]], was a high-ranking Team Rocket agent. When Jessie was around the age of three, Miyamoto left on a mission to the {{wp|Andes}} to record the voice of the elusive Pokémon {{p|Mew}}. However, after Miyamoto disappeared, Jessie was put into a foster home which had very little money. There were times when she had no choice but to eat snow because of a lack of more nourishing food.

When she was old enough, she left home to become a Pokémon nurse in [[Johto]]. However, the school she was enrolled in was literally for ''Pokémon'' nurses (i.e. {{p|Chansey}}), so she failed to graduate and left, leaving behind a [[Nurse Joy's Blissey|Chansey]] she had befriended there. In the episode ''[[EP129|Ignorance is Blissey]]'', Jessie was reunited with that same Chansey, which had since evolved into a {{p|Blissey}}. It is assumed that she then traveled back to [[Kanto]], where she enrolled in [[Pokémon Tech]], a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s school, she met [[James]], and subsequently failed and dropped out. After this, Jessie and James joined a bicycle gang in [[Sunny Town]], where Jessie was known for swinging a chain above her head as she rode her bike, acquiring the nickname "Chainer Jess".

Due to conflicts in canon between Kanto and Johto episodes and the special episode ''[[H012|Training Daze]]'', what happened between Jessie and James after the bike gang is unknown. What ''is'' known, as shown in the special episode, is that they joined Team Rocket separately and were on initially unfriendly terms after being grouped with {{MTR}} but they quickly made up and became good friends.
[[File:Jessie hair.png|thumb|Jessie after beating up her Seviper for biting off her hair|220px]]
Sometime before joining Team Rocket, and it is not known when, Jessie obtained a [[Contest Pass]] in the [[Hoenn]] region. Also during the years before Team Rocket, she had several boyfriends, all of whom left her and/or treated her badly. In ''[[EP234|Xatu the Future]]'', she revealed that she had once worked at a T.V. station as the weathergirl. In ''[[AG156|From Cradle to Save]]'', it was revealed that she once was a ninja. In [[Crossing Paths]], it was revealed that she had a crush on a boy she had gone to school with named [[Astin]], who has a current-day counterpart [[Austin|with a similar name]].

She has a long-standing bitter rivalry with [[Cassidy]], another member of Team Rocket. And Team Rocket member {{an|Wendy}} held a grudge against Jessie for failing to pay for a drink (making Wendy pay), but got her revenge when she added the charge to Jessie's overall Team Rocket bill.

Jessie seems to have a special preference for snake-like Pokémon, owning both an {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and a {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. In ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké Showdown]]'', she expressed a preference for {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon in general.

It is revealed in [[EP048|Holy Matrimony!]] that Jessie is almost identical in appearance to James's fiancée, [[Jessiebelle]], with the two of them having virtually identical faces and only noticeable physical differences between them being eye color, hairstyle, and slightly different hair colors. Meowth in particular takes notice of this and frequently reminds Jessie of the fact throughout the episode, something she takes strong offense to due to Jessiebelle's reprehensible personality. Interestingly enough by the time the subject of Jessiebelle is breached again in [[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]] she seems to have forgotten about her doppelganger and needs Meowth to remind her of who she is. The resemblance between the two was further explored in [[DP153]] when she disguised herself as Jessiebelle in order to grant herself, James, and Meowth, entrance one of James's family mansions without James having to do so himself.

Jessie is also known to be very vain and is also prone to explosive anger. She values her appearance, and she can get furious when her face or hair is damaged, such as in ''[[EP023|The Tower of Terror]]'', ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile!]]'' and ''[[AG008|A Tail with a Twist]]''. When this happens, she may do things like beat up a Pokémon such as {{MTR}} or her {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. Furthermore, Jessie goes into a violent outrage whenever someone insults her beauty by calling her old, such as the episode ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'' when [[Misty]] calls Jessie an "old hag" (Japanese: ''oba-san''). She spitted fire in extreme anger after Misty called her that name in that episode. She is also angered (compared to her companions, who are usually depressed when they fail at something) when missions are either failed or botched, which is a regular thing. This anger was intensely demonstrated in the Indigo League, Orange Islands and part of the Johto League story arcs. However, her anger tantrums started to become less intense over the next two story arcs, and her anger has always appeared far more intense in the dub than in the original, which is a contrast of Lillis's vocal performance to Hayashibara's.
[[File:Jessie Jessebella.png|thumb|As Jessebella]]
Starting in [[Hoenn]], Jessie became a [[Pokémon Coordinator]], entering every contest that she could. She frequently made it to the battle round, but usually lost there. However, in ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith]]'', she finally succeeded in winning an (unofficial) contest by using [[Ash's Aipom]], which she had saved earlier in the episode. And, in ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', she won an official contest with her Dustox at [[Solaceon Town]]. Later in ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist]]'', she won a ribbon with help of her Yanmega. She has [[Contest Pass]]es to compete in the Hoenn, Kanto, and Sinnoh regions.

In the Kanto contests, Jessie [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] herself as ''Jessebella'' (Japanese: '''ムサぴょん''' ''Musa-pyon'') wearing a red dress and glasses. Eventually, Ash, Brock, Max and May found out her true identity in the last contest.
[[File:Jessalina.png|thumb|left|220px|Jessie disguised as Jessalina]]
During the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], Jessie dressed up as ''Jessadia'' (Japanese: '''プリティ・ムサリン''' ''Pretty Musalin'') and wore glasses, long white socks, a yellow and orange dress, and had her hair in pigtails. She worked there as an announcer and [[Lilian Meridian]]'s assistant; Lilian herself said she did not really like "Jessadia"'s style, but recognized her talent.
[[File:Jessadia.png|thumb|As Jessadia]]
In Sinnoh {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s, Jessie disguised herself as ''Jessalina'' (Japanese: '''キャンディ・ムサリーナ''' ''Candy Musalina''), using big glasses and an orange dress. She was notable for the fact that, in the appeals round of a contest, Jessie tended to use her Pokémon to show herself off, rather than showing them off. In the Latin American dub, she entered Super Contests under the name Jessiebella (referencing Jessiebelle again).

In ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]'' and ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' she once again used her Jessadia disguise to report on the [[Wallace Cup]].

Although Jessie entered mostly every contest in Hoenn and Kanto, she lost in all of them, whether it was the first match of the Battle Rounds or the finals. However, in the Sinnoh region, so far she has won two ribbons herself using her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}}, and obtained a third ribbon after James won a contest in her place.

She's also used other aliases to disguise herself under, such as ''Jessilinda'' during her time at the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] and ''Jessilynlyn'' while competing in the [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]]. Against [[Marilyn]] in ''[[DP125|Battling a Cute Drama!]]'', she used the alias ''Jessirilyn''.

===Pokémon===
As with the standards set by the Team Rocket organization, Jessie initially started off with mainly {{type2|Poison}}s. However, as the anime continued onward, her team has diversified. However, she is still strongly associated with Poison-type serpentine Pokémon, such as Arbok and Seviper. Most of her other Pokémon tend to be unusual in appearance and don't usually fit the general image of "cute". However, she does display a desire to obtain Pokémon that are considered "adorable" when the opportunity presents itself, especially feminine Pokémon such as {{p|Happiny}} or {{p|Smoochum}}. Her attraction towards Smoochum is actually shown in several episodes, such as ''[[AG168|Three Jynx and a Baby]]'' and ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]''. She was also attracted to a {{p|Weavile}} in ''[[AG185|Duels of the Jungle!]]''. Occasionally, she manages to take control of some powerful Pokémon, but due to either inexperience or hubris, this often backfires and loses control of them. She doesn't appear to train her Pokémon that often. Instead, they are often used to fight against Ash and his friends. When she enters contests, she tends to involve herself in her Pokémon's appeals. She is also very fond of {{p|Dratini}}, as evidenced in [[EP035]] and ''[[EP252|Fangs For Nothin!]]''.

==In the games==
==={{game|Yellow}}===
Both Jessie and James appear in Pokémon Yellow as in-game bosses. They first attack the main character in [[Mt. Moon]], while trying to take one of the rare [[fossil]]s uncovered there.

Later, in [[Celadon City]]'s [[Rocket Game Corner]], Jessie and James guard Giovanni's room in the Team Rocket base. During that time, as the player runs into them, they are eager for revenge after the main character busted up their plans at Mt. Moon.

They hold Mr. Fuji hostage at [[Pokémon Tower]]. They attack the {{ga|Red|main character}} on the seventh floor.

Finally, at [[Silph Co.]] in [[Saffron City]], Jessie and James make their final appearance, once again trying to stall the main character from reaching [[Giovanni|their Boss]].

Unlike in the anime, Jessie and James do not follow the main character around and come up with their usual evil plans to capture Pikachu.

===Pokémon Puzzle League===
Along with many other anime characters, both Jessie and James appeared in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]].

==In the TCG==
Jessie and James appear on both versions of the card {{TCG ID|Team Rocket|Here Comes Team Rocket!|15}}, which originally released in the {{TCG|Team Rocket}} set; it was re-released with different artwork in {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}}. In that expansion, there was also a preconstructed [[Theme Deck]] based on {{TCG|Jessie}}. 

==In the manga==
{{incomplete|section}}
===[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]===
Jessie and James both made an appearance in the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}, which was based off of the anime.

While Jessie's role in the Pokémon anime has not yet ended, in this manga, she ended up [[RocketShipping|married to James]] and having a baby on the way.

| align=center | [[Image:023.png]] → [[Image:024.png]] {{TP|Jessie|Ekans → Arbok|Arbok}}
|}

==Trivia==
* Both Jessie and [[James]] have used a {{p|Charizard}} at separate times. They used a third one together as well. None of the three remained in their care, however.
[[Image:Jessie's_Lure.jpg‎|Jessie's special lure|thumb]]
* In Sinnoh, she dressed up as a cowgirl and she was called Catherine Jessieburn. This is a direct reference to the legendary Hollywood actress {{wp|Katharine Hepburn}}.
* Jessie is currently the only member of the anime's main cast who is traveling with a Pokémon not in the extended Sinnoh Dex. In fact, she has two; {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} and {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}.
* Much like [[Misty's special lure|Misty's]], Jessie also has a special lure being modeled after her, like seen in ''[[EP168|Hook, Line, and Stinker]]''.
* In ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom!]]'', Jessie had {{wp|sinusitis}}.
* In the main series games, Jessie and [[James]] are the only characters from [[Generation I]] to appear only in that generation, as they do not reappear in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation IV]] when [[Kanto]] is revisited, and (being exclusive to [[Pokémon Yellow Version|Pokémon Yellow]]) were not adapted into the [[Generation III]] [[Pokémon_FireRed_and_LeafGreen_Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]] remakes.
* Jessie's hair color changed from red to magenta in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin at You, Elekid]]''. This was because this episode was the first to feature digital colored animation, and was possibly due to Jessie's updated Sugimori artwork featuring magenta hair. In all the hand-colored cel animated episodes before the latter, Jessie's hair color was red.
* Jessie is currently the only main character whose Pokémon on hand are all fully evolved.
* All of Jessie's Pokémon which have a confirmed gender a female, these Pokémon being Yanmega, Dustox both of which are bug/flying types and are based on insects.

===Name origin===
[[File:Jessie and James.png|thumb|200px|James and Jessie]]
Jessie's English name is taken from {{wp|Jesse James}}, an American outlaw. Her Japanese name, Musashi, is taken from 宮本武蔵 ''{{wp|Miyamoto Musashi}}'', a famous Japanese swordsman. In his most famous duel, he defeated his rival, 佐々木小次郎 ''{{wp|Sasaki Kojirō}}'', after whom James got his Japanese name. However, one can argue that she is also named after the Japanese battleship {{wp|Musashi}}, as her rival [[Cassidy]]'s Japanese name is based off of the Japanese battleship {{wp|Yamato}}.

She is based on a combination of [[Takeshi Shudō]]'s old girlfriend from when he was in school and the female antagonist of the ''[http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=1472 Time Bokan]'' anime series.
