Ash's Primeape (Japanese: サトシのオコリザル Satoshi's Okorizaru) was the eighth Pokémon that Ash caught in the Kanto region, and his ninth overall.
History
Original series
Ash caught Primeape on Route 7 in the episode Primeape Goes Bananas. On the road to Celadon City, Ash learned that Gary had already caught 30 Pokémon. Upon hearing this, Ash aspired to catch more for himself. Soon afterward, a friendly wild Mankey ate some of Brock's food. Ash took this opportunity to try to catch the Pokémon, but the Poké Ball failed, instead catching a rice ball. Mankey was angered and chased the group, beat up Ash, and stole his hat. Mankey gleefully teased Ash as the young Trainer fumed about having his beloved cap stolen.Team Rocket took this opportunity to make a plan to capture Pikachu, with Mankey walking up to Team Rocket. James kicked it out of sight and this angered the Pig Monkey so much that it evolved into Primeape. It proceeded to punch Jessie in the face, sending her face-first into a rock, then viciously attacked the Team Rocket members. After it beat up Brock, chased Ash and Misty down Route 7 and followed Ash into one of Team Rocket's pitfalls, Ash made several attempts to catch the berserking Primeape, and eventually, his Charmander was finally able to defeat it. Ash caught it and unleashed it upon Team Rocket, where it brutalized them and sent them blasting off into a nest full of wild Primeape.
It appeared in a flashback in Pokémon Scent-Sation! and was planned to be used against Erika. However, Ash decided not to when he recalled how crazy it was.
In The Punchy Pokémon, after leaving Celadon City, Ash and his friends met a man named Anthony who was training to win the P1 Grand Prix, a tournament for Fighting-type Pokémon. Anthony's daughter, Rebecca, wanted him to stop spending so much time away from home training. Brock and Ash volunteered to enter the tournament to discourage Anthony, with Ash entering Primeape. In the first match against a Machop, Ash saved Primeape from a nasty fall, which caused the usually angry Pokémon to become closer to Ash. Primeape eventually won the tournament. Anthony offered to train Primeape for Ash, with the promise of training it to become a P1 champion, so Ash left Primeape with Anthony. Primeape, unlike the other Pokémon that Ash has given to another Trainer for training, hasn't been seen since (although the narrator in the dub hinted at the end of the episode that it's possible that Primeape would return).
Other appearances
Primeape made a cameo appearance along with Ash's other Pokémon in Spurt!, GLORY DAY ~That Shining Day~, Be an Arrow!, and It's Always You and Me. It was also seen in a flashback in The Fires of a Red-Hot Reunion!when Ash remembered the time when Charmander battled Primeape.
