==In the anime==
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, five of the player characters have been given major roles, three of them in the main anime series. {{Ash}} represents {{ga|Red}} (his game counterpart), being based on him in appearance as well as basic history ([[Ritchie]], by extension of resembling Ash, also resembles Red, although his basic history is unknown). At the beginning of {{series2|Advanced Generation}}, {{an|May}} was introduced in order to better represent [[Generation III]], as both [[Misty]] and [[Brock]] are characters native to [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]]. Likewise, at the beginning of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, {{an|Dawn}} joined Ash. Alternatively, in the {{series|Best Wishes!}}, Hilda was not present. Instead, [[Iris]], a Gym leader from the Black/White games, joined Ash.

{{jo|Jimmy}} and {{jo|Marina}} appeared in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' special, taking a similar role to Ash and his companions, fighting [[Team Rocket]] members to protect [[legendary Pokémon]]. While the protagonists of [[Generation II]] were not represented in Ash's party, these two filled the roles as the anime counterparts to {{ga|Ethan}} and {{ga|Kris}}.
