(Japanese: シンジ Shinji) is a rival of Ash in the anime from Tobari City in Sinnoh. He was first introduced at the end of DP002. He is voiced by 小島清孝 Kiyotaka Furushima.
Shinji always checks new captures with his Pokédex. He strongly dislikes weak Pokémon and has a habit of releasing them if they do not meet up to his expectations.
Shinji was first revealed to the fandom through a CoroCoro scan that showed him alongside Ash and Hikari. However, his name and role was not revealed until the following week and so he received the fan name "Nugai", coined by Pie as a play on the phrase "new guy". The first scan showed him commanding a Chimchar.
Several similarities have been noted between Shinji and another rival, Silver. Their personalities are especially similar. Another interesting similarity is that the pose used in Shinji's stock art is the same as the pose in a picture of Silver drawn by Ken Sugimori, down to the angle and position of the hands and feet.
