Ash Ketchum

Ash Ketchum (Japanese: Satoshi) is the main protagonist of the Pokemon anime as well as the Best Wishes series. His partner Pokemon is Pikachu, who he has took with him since the Indigo League.

History
Ash Ketchum is a 10-year-old boy who's dream (and goal) is to become the #1 Pokemon Master in the world, which he has not yet achieved. Since he has recieved Pikachu as his partner, he has journeyed through the Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh regions and competed in each Pokemon League without winning, but learning more about becoming a stronger trainer.

In BW001, Ash journeyed to Unova with his mother and Professor Oak to meet Prof. Juniper. After being ambushed by team Rocket and saved by Zekrom, the Legendary Pokemon in Unova, Pikachu's Electric-type moves, like Thunderbolt and Volt Tackle, were supressed. This was later seen in his battle with his new rival, Trip, who defeated him with his Snivy.
