The day he started out on his Pokémon journey, he came off as an arrogant Trainer, much like his {{pkmn|game}} counterpart, {{ga|Blue}}. His chosen [[starter Pokémon]] was {{TP|Gary|Squirtle|Blastoise}}, which was actually the same Pokémon that Ash originally wanted to start with. He even had a group of [[Gary's cheerleaders|cheerleaders]] who cheered him on in all his battles and would go so far as crying whenever he lost. He didn't walk on his journeys like most Trainers did; instead he had his own sporty red convertible with a chauffeur. Gary loved when he got a chance to make fun of Ash by bragging about how far behind Ash was compared to him. He also gave Ash the pet-name of "Ashy-boy" (Japanese: {{tt|"Satoshi''-kun''"|Satoshi is Ash's Japanese name and ''-kun'' is a Japanese honorific, kun can be considered insulting when not used among friends}}), which occasionally seems to annoy him. His style of training at this point was to capture many Pokémon and to use the strongest, as a stark contrast to Ash, who focused on developing a bond with his Pokémon.

Soon he would eat his words when he would challenge the [[Viridian City]] [[Gym Leader]], {{an|Giovanni}}, to a Pokémon battle for his final (but not necessary) Badge in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]''. At first he seemed to be winning against Giovanni, knocking out most of his Pokémon (even at a type disadvantage). But then Giovanni sent out {{an|Mewtwo}} against the Trainer and even let Gary use both his {{TP|Gary|Arcanine}} and {{p|Nidoking}} against him. Mewtwo made quick work of the two Pokémon and Gary experienced his first (known) loss. However, this still didn't change his arrogance. It would take a loss at the [[Pokémon League]] way later on against [[Melissa]] for him to finally realize that he greatly needed to change himself.

In ''[[SS015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl]]'', Gary worked on [[Sayda Island]] with {{an|Crystal}}. There, he revived an {{p|Aerodactyl}} from an [[Old Amber]]. At first the Aerodactyl was afraid of him and every other person on the island, but Gary soon gained its trust after he fed it some fruit that Aerodactyl used to eat.

During his journey, Gary collected ten Badges to compete in the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. Of the ten Badges he obtained in [[Kanto]], he already had five by [[EP025|Primeape Goes Bananas]], and showed off the whole set in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' (though he failed to gain an eleventh Badge in that episode when faced against {{an|Mewtwo}}). Of the eight Badges that Ash won, Gary only has three: A Boulder Badge, a Cascade Badge, and a Rainbow Badge. The other seven are unknown, but aside from the Earth Badge, he didn't get a Thunder Badge, Marsh Badge, Soul Badge, or Volcano Badge.
