(Japanese: マサオミ Masaomi) is a recurring character of the Pokémon anime who first appeared in BW070 and a rival of Stephan.
History
He was the champion of the previous year's Donamite tournament and returned to defend his title with his Throh. He has shown a particular interest in Stephan and his Sawk. However when Stephan began bragging that Sawk was the greatest, he took slight offense to it. He stated that Stephan could not say he was the greatest until he won a battle against his Throh. Even then, he had concluded that Stephan would not make it past the second round just by looking at Sawk.
Still, Masaomi continued to observe Stephan and Sawk in BW071 during the intermission while they were attempting to help Ash's Scraggy direct his Focus Blast. Afterwards, Masaomi fought his first opponent, Domon, and defeated him easily, and advanced to the second round.
The night before the second round was to begin in BW072, Masaomi was seen training Throh by having him throw large boulders around. Ash asked him to train with him and Stephan but he refused; saying that he did not train with his "enemies". The next day he went up against Iris and her Excadrill and won, advancing himself to the semi-finals. Before the episode's conclusion it was revealed that his opponent for that round would be Ash and he battle him in BW073. Masaomi was well aware of how badly Scraggy aimed his Focus Blast attacks and did not issue a command to Throh. Instead they waited as all of his Focus Blasts missed. He finally told Throh to attack after Scraggy used Hi Jump Kick and things went smoothly for them afterwards. Ash was yet another defeated opponent soon and Masaomi would join Stephan in the final round of the Donamite.
Stephan would prove to be his toughest opponent yet to the point where Masaomi struggled to maintain control of the battle. However, he eventually lost and was forced to give up his championship title. Though he did lose, he was thoroughly impressed by Stephan's skills as a Trainer and congratulated him when he won, even giving him a handshake. He did say that the next time he and Stephan battled, he would be victorious.

This listing is of Masaomi's known Pokémon in the anime:
Masaomi's Throh | ||
Throh is the only known Pokémon Masaomi has on hand and had started a rivalry with Stephan's Sawk. In BW071, he went against Domon's Mienshao and was able to dodge every single one of its attacks. He knocked it out of the tournament after a Seismic Toss followed by a Circle Throw.
In BW072, Throh was put up against Iris's Excadrill. He managed to easily block Excadrill's attacks and finished him by using Seismic Toss, knocking the Subterrene Pokémon out and eliminating Iris from the tournament. After seeing Iris worry about Excadrill, Throh bowed his head in an apologetic fashion. In BW073, Throh's opponent in the semi-final round was Ash's Scraggy. Throh proved too powerful for the Shedding Pokémon and defeated him, eliminating Ash and advancing Masaomi to the final round where he would face off against Stephan's Sawk. Both Pokémon proved powerful, but Stephan's Sawk eventually emerged the victor after a great struggle once Throh fainted from exhaustion. Throh's known moves are Superpower, Seismic Toss, Circle Throw and Bind. | ||
