'''Koga''' (Japanese: '''キョウ''' ''Kyō'') was the [[Gym Leader|Leader]] of [[Fuchsia City]]'s [[Gym]]. He is a student of ninjutsu who specializes in {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. He handed out the {{Badge|Soul}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeated him.
He was promoted to a {{pkmn|Master}} {{type|Poison}} {{pkmn|Trainer}}, and became a member of the [[Johto]] [[Elite Four]], at some time after the events of [[Generation I]] and its remakes, but before the events of [[Generation II]] and its remakes, thus leaving his daughter, [[Janine]], in charge of the [[Fuchsia Gym]].
==In the games==
Koga, known as the Poisonous Ninja Master, serves two roles in the Pokémon games. In {{game5|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}} he is the Leader of the [[Fuchsia Gym]], but is promoted to a member of the [[Elite Four]] in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. Koga is a user of the {{type|Poison}}; he likes the despair and horror that Poison-type Pokémon can inflict on others.
Koga has studied medicine and antidotes; he makes his own potions to heal his Pokémon. He also serves as a teacher. Many students come to him to be trained in the arts of {{wp|Ninjutsu}} and Pokémon. One of his students is his own daughter, [[Janine]], who takes over his Gym in the [[Generation II]]/{{gen|IV}} storyline. In addition to these roles, Koga also patrols the grounds of the [[Kanto Safari Zone]], to ensure that the players of the Safari Game are safe from the [[wild Pokémon]] within.
In [[Generation I]]/{{gen|III}}, Koga's Gym is typically the fifth to be challenged. He has built invisible walls in the Fuchsia City Gym, constructing a confusing maze out of them. Koga awaits challengers in the center of the maze, clearly visible, but a group of {{tc|Juggler}}s and {{tc|Tamer}}s—Koga's students—must be fought first. Defeating him will earn the successful Trainer {{TM|06|Toxic}} and the {{Badge|Soul}}.
With the future of the Gym in his daughter's hands, Koga advances to a role in the Pokémon League of Kanto and Johto before the events of Generation II/IV. In these games, he is the second member of the Elite Four to be faced. The team he uses in this role is similar to his Gym Leader's teams; the main difference is the introduction of {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|Pokémon not native to Kanto}}. Koga's battle style as an Elite Four member is designed to confound and destroy his opponent in battle. Rather than using brute force, Koga attempts to [[status ailment|confuse, put to sleep, and poison]] his opponent.

==In the anime==
[[File:Koga.png|thumb|left|215px|Koga in the anime]]
Koga's only anime appearance was in the episode ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]''.
Koga is a ninja who trains in an old mansion, the Fuchsia City Gym, in the woods outside Fuchsia City. The Gym is filled with traps such as fake mirrors, invisible walls, pits, and many {{p|Voltorb}}. {{an|Aya}}, Koga's younger sister, is one of his students.
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} managed to overcome the traps in the Gym and Ash was finally able to challenge Koga. Although [[Ash's Pidgeot|Ash's Pidgeotto]] initially lost to Koga's newly-evolved {{p|Venomoth}}, prompting Ash to call out {{AP|Charmander|Charizard}}, their match was interrupted when {{TRT}} tried to steal Koga's large supply of Voltorb, although they had raided the Gym with the intent of getting {{type|Poison}} Pokémon. Team Rocket was stopped by {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, allowing Ash and Koga to have a rematch. Pitting Charmander against Koga's {{TP|Koga|Golbat}}, Ash triumphed and won the {{Badge|Soul}}.
===Pokémon===
This listing is of Koga's known Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
{{TrainerPoké
|trainer=Koga
|pkmn=Venomoth
|stage1=Venonat
|type1=Bug
|type2=Poison
|img=Koga Venonat.png
|cap=Koga's Venonat
|img2=Koga Venomoth.png
|epnum=EP032
|epname=The Ninja Poké-Showdown
|vaen=Eric Stuart
|desc=When {{Ash}} challenged Koga, Koga sent out his {{p|Venonat}}, which Ash originally underestimated since he had previously defeated his sister's Venonat quite easily but then it instantly evolved into a {{p|Venomoth}}, and proceeded to get the upper hand in its Gym battle with {{AP|Pidgeotto|Pidgeot}}. The battle was interrupted by {{TRT}}, and afterwards, Koga offered to trade Venomoth to {{an|Misty}} for her {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, but she declined.
Venomoth's known moves are {{m|Stun Spore}} and {{m|Sleep Powder}}.}}
{{TrainerPoké
|main=yes
|trainer=Koga
|pkmn=Golbat
|type1=Poison
|type2=Flying
|img=Koga Golbat.png
|epnum=EP032
|epname=The Ninja Poké-Showdown
|vajp=Shin'ichirō Miki
|vaen=Eric Stuart
|desc=During Koga's and Ash's rematch, Koga used his {{p|Golbat}} against [[Ash's Charizard|Ash's Charmander]]. Golbat eventually lost to Charmander's strong {{type|Fire}} moves, winning Ash the {{Badge|Soul}}.}}
{{TrainerPoké
|trainer=Koga
|pkmn=Scyther
|type1=Bug
|type2=Flying
|img=Koga Scyther.png
|epnum=EP073
|epname=Bad to the Bone
|desc=Koga's {{p|Scyther}} only appeared in a flashback in ''[[EP073|Bad to the Bone]]''. Otoshi's flashback revealed that he defeated Scyther with his Marowak and obtained the Soul Badge.
None of Scyther's moves are known.}}
====At Fuchsia Gym====
{{TrainerPoké
|trainer=Koga
|pkmn=Voltorb
|type1=Electric
|img=Koga Voltorb.png
|epnum=EP032
|epname=The Ninja Poké-Showdown
|vaen=Eric Stuart
|desc=Koga keeps these multiple {{p|Voltorb}} as traps in his Gym. They can be either hidden under the floor or be dropped from the ceiling. Ash, Misty, and Brock first came across one when Ash fell into a trap, stepped on one and it shocked him. Team Rocket attempted to steal the Voltorb from the Gym, and {{MTR}} used these Pokémon as exploding bowling balls and threw them at the heroes.
The Voltorb's known moves are {{m|Selfdestruct}} and {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which they usually use when a trap is set off.}}
