Blue Oak (Japanese: オーキド・グリーン Green Okido) is the rival of the player in the Generation I games, as well as in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, their Generation III remakes.

After the three years between the Generation I games' plotline and that of the Generation II games and their remakes, Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, Blue took the place of Giovanni as the Viridian City Gym Leader, as Giovanni had disbanded Team Rocket and gone into solo training. Blue does not specialize in a particular type of Pokémon and, like Giovanni before him, gives anyone who defeats him an Earth Badge.

In the games

Role

He is a very cocky and somewhat unfriendly young man, typically bidding Red/Leaf farewell with "Smell ya later!", and his primary motivation throughout the game is to become the greatest Trainer. He eventually accomplishes this, defeating the Kanto Elite Four and becoming the Pokémon Champion, but is quickly defeated by the player, losing the position.

In Pokémon Red, Green, and Blue, Pokémon Yellow, and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Blue is the player's rival: he will meet up with the player as he or she journeys across the Kanto region, challenging him or her every once in a while to test their skills. Like the player, he receives a starter Pokémon from Professor Oak, his grandfather: the one he chooses will be of the type which weakens the type of the player's choice. In Yellow, he will take the Eevee Oak had intended for the player.

Eventually, Blue becomes the Champion at Indigo Plateau, though he is defeated by the player before Professor Oak arrives to congratulate him. Frustrated, he journeys to the Sevii Islands at Professor Oak's request, obtaining new Pokémon to use in his matches against the player at the Indigo Plateau (as all in-game Champions return to their position on the player's return to their hometown).

Professor Oak, his grandfather, deems Blue to have not realized how to care for Pokémon, which he commends the player for, on becoming Champion. This is evident in the state Blue leaves Silph Co. in, which is still under Team Rocket control, leaving the player to take out Giovanni.

In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, however, it is revealed that, after he was defeated at the Indigo Plateau by Red (Leaf does not appear and is not mentioned in the remake games, and did not exist at the time of Generation II), Blue returned to Pallet Town. As Viridian Gym's Leader, Giovanni, had abandoned it on his defeat at the hands of Red, Blue took the position, now handing out the Earth Badge to Trainers who bested him. In Generation IV, he also distributes TM92 (Trick Room) to those who win the Earth Badge, but does not give a TM out in Generation II. He has not lost his nature as a traveling Trainer, however, and frequently leaves his Gym, creating problems for Trainers who wish to challenge him. When they do find him wherever he is, he points them in the direction of Viridian Gym for an official league battle. Blue will not battle the player until he or she has the other seven Kanto Badges in remakes. However, in originals he can be challenged as early as after the meeting on Cinnabar Island.

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver only, the player can face Blue in a rematch at the Fighting Dojo. The method of obtaining his number is slightly different from the other Gym Leaders. The player must have his or her Pokémon at maximum friendship and have it massaged by Daisy Oak seven times. After the seventh time, she will give the player Blue's phone number when spoken to. He can be called for a rematch on Sunday night.

In the anime

File:Gary Oak.png
Blue's anime counterpart, Gary Oak
Main article: Gary Oak

Blue himself does not make an appearance in the anime; however, he receives an anime counterpart in Gary Oak, Ash Ketchum's rival. Much like Blue, Gary was initially very arrogant, but mellowed out after he was defeated by his rival. Unlike Blue, however, Gary has not been shown to have taken over Viridian Gym, instead he has decided to become a Pokémon researcher like his grandfather, and is currently working with Professor Rowan in Sinnoh.

In the manga

Blue, like many in-game characters, has several counterparts in the many different manga series based on Pokémon. While these manga counterparts are distinct from Blue and each other, they generally share his appearance and personality traits.

In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga

Main article: Gary Oak

Blue's anime counterpart, Gary Oak, also appears in the The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga. In the manga, he has a sister (unseen in the anime) named May.

In the Pokémon 4Koma manga

Main article: Rival (4Koma)

In Pokémon 4Koma, Blue has a counterpart simply named Rival.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Main article: Blue (Adventures)

Blue, like other rival characters in the games, has a direct counterpart in a similarly named character of Pokémon Adventures. Like his game counterpart (and the illustrations of the Japanese game guides depicting Red, himself, and a third trainer character), he starts out with a starter Pokémon that disadvantages the main character's, and has Professor Oak and Daisy as family members. He also loses to Red in the Indigo League in the end, and becomes the successor to the position of Viridian Gym Leader three years later.

Unlike the Blue of the games, however, he is a calm, reserved individual who knows his limits well, as displayed when he withdraws from fighting Mew knowing his Charmander would eventually lose. Though he initially would do anything to capture and train Pokémon to bend to his own will, he eventually learns from his mistakes from Red and learns to care for his Pokémon. He demonstrates this when he calls his Machamp back when he knew it was too tired to battle. His cockiness is very much reserved in comparison to his counterparts', as he does not treat Red as an embarrassment of a rival soon after they meet in the Lavender Tower.

In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga

Main article: Kai Midorikawa

Blue has a counterpart in the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga named Kai Midorikawa. Kai is Isamu Akai's rival and, like Blue, is Professor Oak's grandson.

In the Pokémon Zensho manga

Main article: Shigeru (Zensho)

Blue has a counterpart in the Pokémon Zensho manga named Shigeru, named after Blue's alternate name from the games and Gary's Japanese name.

Trivia

  • Blue is the only character that has been a Rival, Gym Leader, and Champion.
  • Blue is the only rival whose father has not been seen.
  • Blue is the only Gym Leader who does not specialize in a specific type.
  • Blue is the only Rival to replace a Pokémon, as in his third and fourth battle he owns a Rattata who later evolves into Raticate. But during the fifth, and subsequent battles, his Raticate has been replaced.
