Blue himself does not make an appearance in the anime, however, he receives an [[cross-canon counterparts|anime counterpart]] in Gary Oak, [[Ash Ketchum]]'s rival. Much like Blue, Gary was initially very arrogant, but mellowed out after he was defeated by his rival. Unlike Blue, however, Gary has not been shown to have taken over Viridian Gym, instead he has decided to become a Pokémon researcher like his grandfather, and is currently working with [[Professor Rowan]] in Sinnoh. | Blue himself does not make an appearance in the anime, however, he receives an [[cross-canon counterparts|anime counterpart]] in Gary Oak, [[Ash Ketchum]]'s rival.

{{Main|Blue (Adventures)}} | |||
Blue, like other rival characters in the games, has a direct counterpart in a similarly named character of [[Pokémon Adventures]]. Like his game counterpart (and the illustrations of the Japanese game guides depicting Red, himself, and a third trainer character), he starts out with a [[starter Pokémon]] that disadvantages the main character's, and has [[Professor Oak]] and [[Daisy]] as family members, also losing to Red in the [[Indigo League]] in the end, and becoming the successor to the position of [[Viridian City|Viridian]] Gym Leader three years later. | |||
Unlike the Blue of the games, however, Blue is a calm, reserved individual who well knows his limits, as displayed when he withdraws from fighting {{p|Mew}} knowing his [[Blue's Charizard|Charmander]] would eventually lose, and though he initially would do anything to capture and train Pokémon to bend to his own will, he eventually learns from his mistakes from {{adv|Red}} and learns to care for his Pokémon to the point of calling his Machamp back when he knows it was too tired to battle. His cockiness seemed very much reserved in comparison to his counterparts', as he does not treat Red as an embarrassment of a rival soon after they meet in the [[Lavendar Town|Lavendar]] Tower. | |||
