Ash Ketchum (サトシ Satoshi)
Ash Ketchum has always wanted to catch all 150 known Pokemon to become a Pokemon Master. Though Ash wanted Squirtle as his first Pokemon, he ended up receiving Pikachu because he woke up and all the other starter Pokemon were chosen. Ash immediately left Pallet Town to begin his journey by facing battles, catching Pokemon to add to his Pokedex, and meeting new friends like Misty and Brock.
Throughout the series, Ash makes enemies with a Pokémon crime organization called Team Rocket. The two members, Jessie and James, obsessively follow Ash during the entire series after being defeated by Pikachu. They think stealing Ash’s “powerful” Pikachu and giving it to their boss will make them wealthy. Over time, Ash collects even more Pokemon and earns many gym badges with the goal of becoming a greater trainer than his childhood friend, Gary Oak. Gary was always a stronger trainer than Ash Ketchum though.
