As a Trainer, Ash has [[Caught Pokémon|caught]] and [[Friendship|befriended]] a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime. His philosophy on {{pkmn|training}} is that Pokémon are individuals and that a combination of trust, friendship and hard work are needed to overcome adversity. In fact, several of Ash's Pokémon were caught because they allowed him to, after he befriended them. He seems to [[Pokémon battle|battle]] best with Pokémon that are similar to Pikachu: ones that are [[Appendix:Metagame terminology#Sweeper|speedy and maneuverable, yet able to perform high-powered attacks]]; however, he is willing to work with any Pokémon that comes into his care. | As a Trainer, Ash has [[Caught Pokémon|caught]] and [[Friendship|befriended]] a sizable number of Pokémon over the course of the anime.

Ash's battle style is generally spontaneous and fairly unorthodox, and his Pokémon often reflect these traits. He has been shown to use unusual strategies. For instance, during the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, he incorporated a twisting-spinning type maneuver in his Pokémon's offensive and defensive techniques, which eventually lead to him creating the original technique, [[Counter Shield]]. Also, sometimes he would use someone else's battle strategies as shown with [[Paul]] and [[Tierno]], though when using the latter, Ash stated that his own unique strategy is the one he can truly count on, instead of simply mimicking others. The majority of his Pokémon also share Ash's stubborn nature, persistently attempting to rise and continue the battle, even after receiving | Ash's battle style is generally spontaneous and fairly unorthodox, and his Pokémon often reflect these traits.

Ash is very attached to his Pokémon, and prefers to fight and train with them personally. However, if it is by their own wish, or if he believes it is best for them, Ash will (if sometimes reluctantly) [[trade]] or [[Released Pokémon|release]] them, and in some cases, leave them with experienced individuals so that they could get stronger. | Ash is very attached to his Pokémon, and prefers to fight and train with them personally.

Though Ash normally catches 5 or more Pokémon per [[region]] (not including when he travelled through the [[Orange Islands]] and challenged the [[Battle Frontier]] in his second tour of [[Kanto]]), he rarely ever switches the Pokémon in his current [[party]] with those in [[Pokémon Storage System|storage]] at {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|laboratory]]. However, during the {{series|Best Wishes}}, Ash actively cycled through the nine Pokémon he managed to catch in [[Unova]], although these Pokémon, when not in his party, were instead kept in storage at [[Professor Juniper]]'s lab in [[Nuvema Town]]. Near the end of his journey in Unova, Professor Juniper transfered all of Ash's Pokémon to Professor Oak's lab. Ash has not yet used this system of training in the [[XY series|following]] series. | Though Ash normally catches 5 or more Pokémon per [[region]] (not including when he travelled through the [[Orange Islands]] and challenged the [[Battle Frontier]] in his second tour of [[Kanto]]), he rarely ever switches the Pokémon in his current [[party]] with those in [[Pokémon Storage System|storage]] at {{an|Professor Oak}}'s [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|laboratory]].
