(Japanese: '''タイセイ''' ''Taisei'') is a beginning [[Pokémon Trainer]] and the [[character of the day]] in ''[[DP080|The Thief That Keeps on Thieving!]]''. He is voiced by 斎藤千和 ''Chiwa Saito'' in Japanese.

Taisei was trying desperately to catch a {{p|Yanma}} when he met {{Ash}} and [[Ash's friends|crew]]. Like {{an|Dawn}} his [[starter Pokémon]] was {{p|Piplup}}. His was nicknamed チャッピー ''Chappy'' and it wore a hair barrette on its head.  After finally weakening a {{TP|Jessie|Yanma}}, he was about to catch it until [[Team Rocket]] showed up.  [[Jessie]] threw a [[Poké Ball]] at it and caught it herself.

Dismayed by this, Taisei began to feel that he would never catch a Yanma, but Ash encouraged him and he found the confidence to try again.  The next day, he attempts to catch another Yanma but Team Rocket interfered once again and the Yanma got away.  A little bit later he put out some of [[Brock]]'s [[Pokémon food]] and another Yanma started to eat it. Team Rocket tried to interfere again but Ash sent them blasting off. It took a couple of attempts but Taisei managed to catch this Yanma.
