(Japanese: アラン Alan) is a recurring character in the Pokémon anime. He is the main protagonist of the side story episodes SS029 and SS030.

History

Alan is a Pokémon Trainer seeking to defeat all Mega Evolved Pokémon using his Mega Charizard X. In the past he was Professor Sycamore's assistant, and it was Sycamore who initially inspired him to begin seeking Mega Stones in order to solve the mysteries of Mega Evolution.

Some time after leaving Professor Sycamore's laboratory, Alan battled a Trainer named Ayaka, and defeated her Mega Absol. He then encountered a beginning Trainer named Manon, who was so impressed with his strength that she began following him. From Manon, he learned of a Trainer who leaped off of Prism Tower to save a Pokémon. Next, Alan received a call on his Holo Caster from a yet to be revealed person, who directed him to some ruins as his next destination.

After recovering a mysterious Mega Stone from the ruins, Alan encountered a Trainer named Louie who challenged him with a Mega Garchomp. Alan easily won the battle, then later helped Manon capture a Flabébé. He then traveled to a restaurant where Elite Four member Siebold was working as a chef and challenged him to a battle, seemingly unaware that his Charizard's energy levels were being monitored by Lysandre. Charizard put up a good fight against Siebold's Blastoise, but when Blastoise Mega Evolved, it overwhelmed Charizard using a Mega Launcher-boosted Dragon Pulse. Accepting his defeat, Alan set off on his journey once more, now with Manon as a traveling partner.

Character

Alan is shown to usually be focused on his goals, yet often exhibits aloof behavior and can wander off in thought. He at first seems to push others away from him, but he helped Manon capture Flabébé with hints on strategy. He does, however, have a close bond with his Charizard, and seems to be warming up to Manon's companionship.

During his time working at Professor Sycamore's lab, Alan was much more cheerful than he is in the present.
