Red's [[cross-canon counterparts|anime counterpart]], introduced in the [[EP001|first episode]], is the anime's main character, Ash Ketchum. Like Red, Ash is from Pallet Town, on a journey to become a Pokémon Master. Unlike Red, Ash's journey did not end with Kanto, and Ash has continued through every other region introduced in the [[main series]] games, as well as the [[Orange Archipelago]] south of Kanto, taking the place of the player characters of Generation II during Johto, and being joined by the anime counterparts of {{ga|May}} and {{ga|Dawn}} during the Hoenn and Sinnoh sagas. Instead of starting with one of the standard three Kanto starters, however, Ash began his journey with a {{AP|Pikachu}}, inspiring {{game|Yellow}}'s creation, as well as causing some to consider Red and Ash to be exactly the same person, most especially due to Red owning {{ga|Red's Pikachu|one}} as well. | Red's [[cross-canon counterparts|anime counterpart]], introduced in the [[EP001|first episode]], is the anime's main character, Ash Ketchum.

Red also had a direct counterpart that appeared as the main character of the [[Pokémon Origins]] mini-series. This counterpart shared both Red's name and design. | |||
