Dayton

Dayton (Japanese: ダイキ Daiki) is a character of the day from the episode Takin' it on the Chinchou. His English voice actress is Tara Jayne and his Japanese voice actress is Akiko Hiramatsu.

He and his father were in charge of the annual Chinchou parade in Blue Lagoon. With his own Chinchou, Bright, leading the way, Dayton journeyed with Ash so they could reach the shore. While heading there, Dayton fell off the side of a mountain. Bright, along with the other Chinchou, detected where he was by using their antennae.

The two finally reached the shore, but Team Rocket attempted to steal all of the Chinchou. Ash had a hard time freeing them with Pikachu and his other Pokémon, but Dayton had Bright and the other Chinchou use Spark to set themselves free from the cage. In the process, Team Rocket was sent blasting off.

Dayton approached Bright and wished him good luck on his journey to the sea. Bright then left his Trainer for a life in the seas of the Whirl Islands.
