'''Horace''' (Japanese: '''トキオ''' ''Tokio'') is a recurring {{pkmn|anime}} character who appeared in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''. He is  a [[Pokémon Trainer]] and a [[rival]] of [[Goh]].

==History==
[[File:Young Horace.png|thumb|250px|left|Young Horace]]
===Pre-series===
Three years prior to ''[[JN032|Time After Time!]]'', Horace encountered [[Goh]] while he was out searching for a {{p|Celebi}}. The two quickly became friends after realizing they were both looking for [[Mythical Pokémon]] and are equally knowledgeable. With the help of [[Mr. Norris]]'s {{p|Sunflora}}, they searched for Celebi together in the [[Ilex Forest]], only to encounter several [[wild Pokémon]] that scared them off. 

They agreed to meet again the next day, but unknown to Goh, Horace had fallen ill and was unable to make it that day. Goh assumed Horace had stood him up and began holding a grudge against him.

A year later, Horace returned to the forest where he discovered the [[Ilex Forest shrine]]. He begged Celebi to take him back to a year ago so he could keep his promise with Goh, but his wish was never granted. Horace instead wrote an apology letter and put it inside of the shrine, hoping Goh would come back and find it.

===''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''===
[[JN032|Two years later]], in the present day, Horace had become a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and had a partner Chikorita. He returned to the shrine, where he reunited with Goh, who had discovered the letter. The two apologized for what happened in the past and rekindled their friendship.

Horace reappeared in ''[[JN102|Battling in the Freezing Raid!]]'', where he was revealed to be a member of [[Project Mew]]. Horace was seen at [[Seafoam Islands]], battling a {{p|Cloyster}} with his {{p|Bayleef}} when he encountered {{Ash}} and Goh. He allowed Goh to catch the Cloyster and joined them in exploring Seafoam Islands in search of an {{p|Articuno}}, also encountering {{Gary}} along the way. Upon finding Articuno, Horace took part in a [[Raid Battle (GO)#In the anime|Raid Battle]] against it, using Bayleef, {{p|Indeedee}}, and {{p|Gardevoir}}, only for Articuno to eventually fly away. After the battle, Horace motivated Goh to do his best, while Gary criticized this way of thinking that Horace and Goh have. Soon after, each of them departed on a different path.

In ''[[JN110|Narrowing the Chaser Chase!]]'', Horace and Gardevoir took part in a Project Mew challenge of exploring [[Sea Mauville]], where he encountered Goh once more. They teamed up to explore Sea Mauville, defeating multiple Trainers along the way until they were the last two remaining. [[Danika]] then informed them that in order to win Project Mew tokens, they would have to battle each other. At first, Horace declined, not wanting to battle Goh, but was soon convinced to battle. Gardevoir eventually won against {{TP|Goh|Inteleon}}, earning him three new tokens as a result.

In ''[[JN113|Chasing to the Finish!]]'', Horace was revealed to have cleared his final Trial Mission and qualified as a Chaser, along with Goh and Gary. [[JN133|Later]], it was revealed that as part of the Mission, Horace managed to capture a {{p|Virizion}}.

In [[JN129]], Horace met with the other members of Project Mew in [[Slateport City]] to begin the final expedition. During the meeting, he shared his expectations for the final mission with Goh. In [[JN132]], Horace was briefly seen together with the other members of Project Mew while Goh watched the climax of {{Ash}}'s battle against {{an|Leon}}.

==Character==
[[File:Horace Pokemon.png|thumb|left|250px|Horace and some of his Pokémon]]
Horace is shown to be very generous and kind, caring about other Challengers who were after {{p|Articuno}} and helping [[Goh]] to capture a {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Cloyster}}. This Horace's way of thinking is even reflected on his Pokémon, which use strategies more focused on preserving companions and which are known for being more defensive and focused on healing moves, such as {{p|Indeedee}} and {{p|Gardevoir}}. During the [[Raid Battle (GO)#In the anime|Raid Battle]] against Articuno, Horace held the party's support position, healing and protecting his allies. While the strategy proved to be advantageous, it failed to do much when his Pokémon were the last ones to remain in battle. Despite this, his participation in the battle was approved by [[Project Mew]], giving Horace a greater number of Tokens than usual. 

Horace joins Project Mew with the intention of discovering every {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon, in the hopes that such research will lead him to {{p|Celebi}}, due to it also being part of that type. Regarding Goh, Horace is shown to be very supportive, but during the battle that the two participated in, Horace had to call on him for the reason to be able to focus on the battle as a teammate.

In ''[[JN110|Narrowing the Chaser Chase!]]'', Horace was reluctant to battle Goh in order to win Project Mew tokens but Goh eventually convinced him to battle.
