He is a very cocky and somewhat unfriendly young man, typically bidding {{ga|Red}} or {{ga|Leaf}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} farewell with "Smell ya later!" in the English games<ref>[http://legendsoflocalization.com/qa-smell-ya-later-pokemon/ Q&A: Smell Ya Later, Pokémon! « Legends of Localization]</ref>, and his primary motivation throughout the game is to become the greatest Trainer. He eventually accomplishes this, defeating the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] and becoming the [[Pokémon Champion]], but is quickly defeated by the player, losing the position.
He is a very cocky and somewhat unfriendly young man, typically bidding people farewell with "Smell ya later!" (Japanese: '''バイビー！''' ''Baibii!''), and his primary motivation throughout the game is to become the greatest Trainer. He eventually accomplishes this, defeating the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] and becoming the [[Pokémon Champion]], but is quickly defeated by the player, losing the position.


In {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}, {{game|Yellow}}, and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Blue is the player's rival: he will meet up with the player as he or she journeys across the [[Kanto]] region, challenging him or her every once in a while to test their skills. Like the player, he receives a starter Pokémon from Professor Oak, his grandfather: the one he chooses will be of the type which weakens the type of the player's choice. In Yellow, he will take the {{p|Eevee}} Prof Oak had intended for the player.

Eventually, Blue becomes the {{pkmn|Champion}} at [[Indigo Plateau]], though he is defeated by the player before Professor Oak arrives to congratulate him. Frustrated, he journeys to the [[Sevii Islands]] at Professor Oak's request, obtaining new Pokémon to use in his matches against the player at the Indigo Plateau (as all in-game Champions return to their position on the player's return to their hometown).

[[Professor Oak]], his grandfather, deems Blue to have not realized how to care for Pokémon, which he commends the player for, on becoming Champion. This is evident in the state Blue leaves [[Silph Co.]] in, which is still under Team Rocket control, leaving the player to take out Giovanni.

* Blue's profile front sprites from {{game|Red and Green|s}}, like {{ga|Red}}'s, possibly correspond to his earlier [[Capsule Monsters]] artwork instead of his final [[Generation I]] artwork, suggesting that the sprites were created very early in the games' development or that [[Game Freak]] forgot to update their aesthetics to match the changes.

** Although part of the changes made in {{game|Yellow}} are directly inspired by the {{pkmn|anime}}, the updates to Blue's front sprites were done in order to match his then official artwork more accurately.

Another possibility is that Pokémon Yellow actually uses that sprite from {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} as these games were originally scheduled for a March 1998 release according to the '''''Official Guidebook of Nintendo Spaceworld '97''''' (Japanese: '''NINTENDOスペースワールド'97オフィシャルガイドブック''') and the Nintendo Spaceworld 1997 website,<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/19980224225429/http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n12/swgbsoft/swgb03.html#gb19 SPACEWORLD'97 出展　GAME BOYソフト]</ref> while Pokémon Yellow only came out months after Game Freak decided to delay them, on September 1998.
