Characters

 * Ash Ketchum (Rica Matsumoto (Japanese); Sarah Natochenny (English)) (1): The main protagonist; a ten-year-old Pokémon trainer from Pallet Town who became licensed on his tenth birthday. The next before obtaining his first Pokémon, Ash accidentally destroyed his alarm clock, causing him to sleep in and miss out on all the starter Pokémon (Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle), so his mentor, Professor Oak, gave him a Pikachu as a starter. Ash's dream is to become a Pokémon master and defeat his rival, Gary Oak. Ash can be reckless, incompetent, dimwitted, careless, clumsy, and somewhat childish at times, but still took good care of his Pokémon and matured as the series continued.
 * Butterfree (Rikako Aikawa) (1): Ash's first captured Pokémon; Butterfree was originally captured as a Caterpie in Viridian Forest. As Caterpie, it seemed to be attracted to Misty. It later evolved into Metapod after defeating Team Rocket and again into Butterfree after being rescued from a Beedrill horde.
 * Pidgeotto (Megumi Hayashibara) (1): Pidgeotto was originally captured in Viridian Forest.
 * Pikachu (Ikue Ohtani) (1): The main Pokémon protagonist; Ash's starter Pokémon. Pikachu was chosen by Ash after all the starter Pokémon were taken. Pikachu hated Ash at first, but they became best friends after saving each other from a violent Spearow flock. He hates being confined in his Poké Ball, so he spends his journey traveling by Ash's side or his shoulder.
 * Brock (Yūji Ueda (Japanese); Bill Rogers (English) (1): The Pewter City gym leader. The oldest of eleven siblings, Brock became their caretaker after his father Flint abandon them to become an unsuccessful Pokémon trainer and his mother died from overworking. After being defeated by Ash, Flint returned to take care of his family, allowing Brock to follow his dream in becoming a Pokémon breeder; Brock decided to join Ash on his journey.

 * Misty (Mayumi Iizuka (Japanese); Michele Knotz (English)) (1): One of the four Cerulean City gym leaders and the younger sister of the Sensational Sisters (Daisy, Violet, and Lily). Misty first met Ash after fishing him and his Pikachu out of the water. They borrowed her bike to escape a violent Spearow flock and accidentally destroyed it along the way, prompting Misty to travel with Ash until the latter paid her back.
