This article is about a character featured in the Pokémon anime who has not yet debuted in the English language dub. As such, their information may contain romanized Japanese names, rather than dub names.

(Japanese: キダチ Kidachi) is Aloe's husband and is the vice-curator of the Shippou City Museum.

In the games

He leads the player around the museum upon the player's first visit, and warns of Team Plasma's commotion before they make off with the skull of a dragon's skeleton.

Kidachi appears to revere his wife, calling her both strong and gentle as a Gym Leader and a person.

In the anime

Kidachi made his anime debut in BW014. He is the vice-curator of the Shippou Museum.

He first appeared when he was being chased by a Dome Fossil under the powers of a Desumasu. He told Ash, Iris and Dent about it and they went to see it, to only find it was in its normal place. He told them that when him and some workers were putting some ancient ruins together as an exhibit, strange things started happening and a mysterious purple flame appeared.

He then shows the group round the museum and decides to sleep with them inside the museum to see if they see any strange occurrences. They eventually find out it was because of Desumasu that had been taken with the exhibit without it knowing. Then when sleeping it accidentally dropped its mask. Kidachi found it and put it behind a glass and Desuamsu tried to get it back. In the end they released Desumasu into the world.

He appeared again in the next episode, where he refereed Ash's Gym battle against Aloe. He also refereed Ash's rematch against Aloe in BW016.

Trivia

• He calls Aloe "Mama," in the way married adults will call themselves "mama" or "papa" instead of by their names.
