In ''[[EP267|Love, Pokémon Style]]'', "Jackson", as he was called in the English dub, was revealed to be {{Ash}} and [[Macy]]'s opponent in Division H of preliminary round-robin {{pkmn|battle}} rounds of the [[Silver Conference]]. Ash later battled Macy and won against her, earning himself three points.
===''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''===
Vincent debuted in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''. He and {{jo|Marina}} were talking via Pokémon Center videophone when the conversation was interrupted by {{jo|Jimmy}}, who hung up on Vincent after he threatened to expose his crush on Marina.


Jackson faced Macy in ''[[EP268|Tie One On!]]''. The three-on-three match proved to be a close one, with both competitors down to their last Pokémon. Jackson's showboating gets the better of him, as he trips over his cape while issuing orders to {{p|Poliwhirl}}. Poliwhirl is left standing as Macy's {{p|Quilava}} delivered a final {{m|Flamethrower}} to win the round.
Later, Vincent joined [[Eusine|Eugene]], Marina, and Jimmy's quest to protect a {{OBP|Raikou|The Legend of Thunder!}} from [[Team Rocket]] agents [[Attila]] and [[Hun]]. He appeared in a cape and ordered his Meganium to use Solar Beam to block Hun's {{p|Steelix}} from using {{m|Rock Throw}}. The pair were then forced to leap from a cliff after Steelix lashed out at them. Despite their efforts, Attila and Hun successfully captured Raikou and fled the scene with Marina, much to Vincent's dismay.


Later, Ash ventured into the [[Pokémon Center]] where he overheard the familiar voice of [[Professor Elm]] in the background. Ash walked over to the videophone and met Jackson in person for the first time. The pair greeted each other as Elm offered Jackson some encouragement for his upcoming match. Outside, Jackson's {{p|Meganium}} and {{p|Azumarill}} get into a heated fight with [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] and {{AP|Squirtle}} over an apple. Ash and Jackson rushed outside to separate their Pokémon, but {{jo|Harrison}}'s {{p|Miltank}} eased the tensions with a soothing {{m|Heal Bell}}.
He, Eugene, and Jimmy again confronted the duo. Vincent tripped in his bid to save Marina, and she ended up landing on his back. During the effort to save Raikou, Vincent and Jimmy had their Meganium and {{TP|Jimmy|Typhlosion}} drain the Miracle Crystal system's energy, and eventually, Raikou gained the strength to free itself. Raikou later destroyed the Miracle Crystal, which forced Attila and Hun to escape. Raikou turned to Vincent and the others to thank them before returning to the wilderness.


Overnight, Ash researched Jackson's team of Pokémon, and he settled on trying to counter the dynamic party based on [[type]] advantage.  Ash and Jackson's round began the following day. Jackson was given the first move, and he called out his Azumarill. Ash selected {{AP|Pikachu}}. Azumarill was eventually defeated by a close-range {{m|Thunder}} attack. Jackson called out his {{p|Magneton}}, and it defeated Pikachu and later {{AP|Cyndaquil}} with a {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Tri Attack}} combo. {{AP|Bulbasaur}} was Ash's final Pokémon. It dodged Jackson's winning strategy with a {{m|Vine Whip}} jump and exhausted Magneton with a {{m|Leech Seed}}.

Jackson selected his final Pokémon, Meganium. The two {{type|Grass}} Pokémon both take some heavy hits, exchanging a fury of Vine Whip and {{m|Razor Leaf}} attacks. A collision of {{m|Solar Beam}}s leaves both sides fatigued. Meganium and Bulbasaur remained determined to prove themselves, though they settle their rivalry with fainting at the same time. The referee called the round a double knockout, and a draw overall between Ash and Jackson. Attention turns to the points for the three-way matches. With his four point total, Ash advanced into the next round of the Silver Conference. While Jackson's Silver Conference journey had come to an end, he shook hands with Ash and wished him the best for the battles ahead.

Vincent or Jackson (Japanese: ジュンイチ Jun'ichi) is one of the protagonists of The Legend of Thunder!, along with Jimmy and Marina. He is a Pokémon Trainer from New Bark Town.

He has two names in the English dub. In the original series, he is known as Jackson, while in The Legend of Thunder!, his name is Vincent.

History

Pre-series

His starter Pokémon was Chikorita, received from Professor Elm of New Bark Town, at the same time as Jimmy and Marina received their Cyndaquil and Totodile.

The Legend of Thunder!

Vincent debuted in The Legend of Thunder!. He and Marina were talking via Pokémon Center videophone when the conversation was interrupted by Jimmy, who hung up on Vincent after he threatened to expose his crush on Marina.

Later, Vincent joined Eugene, Marina, and Jimmy's quest to protect a Raikou from Team Rocket agents Attila and Hun. He appeared in a cape and ordered his Meganium to use Solar Beam to block Hun's Steelix from using Rock Throw. The pair were then forced to leap from a cliff after Steelix lashed out at them. Despite their efforts, Attila and Hun successfully captured Raikou and fled the scene with Marina, much to Vincent's dismay.

He, Eugene, and Jimmy again confronted the duo. Vincent tripped in his bid to save Marina, and she ended up landing on his back. During the effort to save Raikou, Vincent and Jimmy had their Meganium and Typhlosion drain the Miracle Crystal system's energy, and eventually, Raikou gained the strength to free itself. Raikou later destroyed the Miracle Crystal, which forced Attila and Hun to escape. Raikou turned to Vincent and the others to thank them before returning to the wilderness.

Original series

Vincent made his main series debut in Love, Pokémon Style, where he was known as "Jackson" in the English dub. He was revealed to be Ash and Macy's opponent in Division H of preliminary round-robin battle rounds of the Silver Conference.

Jackson faced Macy in Tie One On!. The three-on-three match proved to be a close one, with both competitors down to their last Pokémon. Jackson's showboating got the better of him, however, as he tripped over his cape while issuing orders to Poliwhirl. Macy's Quilava ultimately defeated Poliwhirl with Flamethrower, winning Macy the round.

Later, Ash ventured into the Pokémon Center, where he came across Jackson talking with Professor Elm on the videophone. The pair greeted each other as Elm offered Jackson some encouragement for his upcoming match. Outside, Jackson's Meganium and Azumarill got into a heated fight with Ash's Bulbasaur and Squirtle over an apple. Ash and Jackson rushed outside to separate their Pokémon, but Harrison's Miltank eased them with a soothing Heal Bell.

Overnight, Ash researched Jackson's team of Pokémon, and he settled on trying to counter the dynamic team based on type advantage. Ash and Jackson's round began the following day. Jackson was given the first move, and he called out his Azumarill while Ash selected Pikachu. Azumarill was eventually defeated by a close-range Thunder. Jackson called out his Magneton, and it defeated Pikachu and later Cyndaquil with a Thunder Wave and Tri Attack combination. However, Bulbasaur dodged Jackson's winning strategy with a Vine Whip-propelled jump and exhausted Magneton with Leech Seed.

Jackson selected his final Pokémon, Meganium. After exchanging numerous attacks, the two Grass-type Pokémon were both left fatigued and ultimately fainted at the same time. As a result, the referee called the round a double knockout, and a draw overall between Ash and Jackson. However, due to the four-point total he attained from the Conference's three-way matches, Ash advanced to the next round, while Jackson was disqualified. He subsequently shook hands with Ash and wished him the best for the battles ahead.

Character

Vincent is an incredibly positive and cheery individual. However, he is easily distracted and tends to trip over himself.

Vincent has a crush on Marina. He regularly keeps in contact with her via the Pokégear. Knowing Marina admires people who wear capes, Vincent dresses up in a cape sometimes to impress her. He has also used different personae in a bid to impress her. While it is disputed whether Jackson was one, he called himself Fabu-Vinny in The Legend of Thunder!, as Marina refers to Lance as Fabu-Lance. Vincent sees Jimmy as a rival for Marina's attraction, which is not unfounded as QuestShipping is near-canon.

Everyone was happy until Azumarill threw the apple at Squirtle, thinking it was funny. Squirtle was about to fight Azumarill until they stopped, but Meganium tripped Bulbasaur up and they both started to fight. Suddenly, Harrison used his Miltank's Heal Bell to calm them down.

It appeared later in the Silver Conference against Ash, and Pikachu. Azumarill started with a Water Gun and Pikachu used Quick Attack. Pikachu went for a Thunderbolt while Azumarill used Bubble Beam.

Trivia

  • In the Israeli dub of The Legend of Thunder! special, Vincent was named Jackson, just as in the original series, because the error was caught by the director of the series dub, Maya Bar Shalom. His situation matches that of Eusine.
  • Jackson's name is also similar to that of Ash's Silver Conference and Ever Grande Conference opponents Harrison and Morrison. Along with the aforementioned "-son" ending, they are all named after famous singers (George Harrison, Jim Morrison and Michael Jackson respectively).
  • Vincent's English name change may come directly from Pokémon Gold and Silver. There is a minor Trainer named "Junichi" in the Japanese version whose name was localized as "Vincent" in the English translation - a Guitarist in the Vermilion City Gym with three Magnemite and a Voltorb. The dubbers may have mistaken this character for an unrelated anime character. The same thing happened to Jimmy.
  • Vincent is shown to have a crush on Marina, who likes men who wear capes. When he was first seen in the main series, he was wearing a cape while battling Macy in Tie One On!.
