'''Gold''' (Japanese: '''ゴールド''' ''Gold'') is a [[Pokédex holder|main character]] in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

Gold then runs into Professor Oak, and after learning about the [[Pokédex]] and how Silver stole one, he wants one to level the playing field. While Oak initially says no, Gold eventually wins him over with his love and trust for Pokémon earning him a Pokédex. When Gold reaches Violet City, he realizes that [[Polibo]] was missing from his bag and tried his best to find it, but couldn't. He then stops a robber with a herd of Donphan and learns that Silver had headed for [[Sprout Tower]] and rushes off there and defeats a whole mass of Sages and their Bellsprout to find Silver again and finish what he started. After a long battle, he had the chance to take Totodile back to Professor Elm, but when he reaches out to it, it bites him and returns to Silver, showing that Totodile has actually grown attached to Silver. Their battle had then released a giant iron ball and it chased them down until Exbo heated it up and Totodile used Ice Punch to suddenly cool it down and smash it to pieces. After this, Silver manages to escape mysteriously once again.

It is later revealed the two boys are in [[Whirl Islands]], as rescued by Entei, where they are found by [[Lt. Surge]], and their missing valuables, including the Red Gyarados, are returned. They meet {{adv|Crystal}} after she nearly drowns in the wreckage and battle the rabid {{p|Lugia}} that starts attacking them, and they are all nearly defeated until his Quilava, [[Silver's Croconaw]], and Crystal's [[Megaree]] all evolve into their final forms. The tables nearly turned when Gold even disabled the giant bird's {{m|Aeroblast}} attack by placing his billiard cue inside its mouth to keep it from closing with the aid of his new Mantine and Remoraid getting him close enough, but Gold fails at catching it due to not having his billiard cue, and it is later discovered that someone managed to catch it before they did when the Poké Ball Crystal kicked turned out to be empty. Having failed to track it down with the Area function of the Pokédex, Gold and Crystal then head to the opening ceremony of the Pokémon League, where all 16 [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] have gathered to battle each other, to try to determine which one of the Gym Leaders is the Masked Man. They battle [[Sham]] and [[Carl]] in the Control Room and end up winning with a powerful {{m|Giga Drain}}, but are locked in until Crystal's Parasect melts the door. The Masked Man then appears at the scene with both {{adv|Tower duo|Lugia and Ho-Oh}} and starts wreaking havoc before heading to the [[Ilex Forest shrine|shrine]] in [[Ilex Forest]], where the final battle then takes place.

During the {{chap|Emerald}}, Gold, along with {{adv|Crystal}}, traveled to the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} in order to bring the petrified {{adv|Red}}, {{adv|Blue}}, {{adv|Green}}, {{adv|Yellow}}, and {{adv|Silver}} out of their stone state by wishing upon the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{adv|Jirachi}} and stop the armored man known as [[Guile Hideout]].

When he first arrived, he disguised himself as Guile Hideout, hoping to trick the real one's Pokémon into letting him get to Jirachi. This plan failed however and Gold was forced to use the ultimate {{type|Fire}} attack, {{m|Blast Burn}}, which Gold learned on [[Two Island]] thanks to the help of [[Ultima]]. This becomes the first attack the villain's reflective sword could not deflect. He also later adds that learning the technique, unlike his three predecessors and those to follow, took two whole months.

Now ready to take Jirachi back from Guile Hideout, Gold, Crystal, {{adv|Ruby}}, {{adv|Sapphire}}, and {{adv|Emerald}} prepare to face off their foe. This required Gold and Crystal to give the metal rings of Ultima to the starters of Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and Silver (who was still petrified). When Gold spoke to Emerald, he made the younger boy rethink his relationship with Pokémon. This allowed Emerald to finally teach his {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}} the powerful {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, and in turn free the petrified Pokédex holders with the help of Jirachi. Gold then combined forces with the other nine Pokédex holders in order to destroy the great sea demon that had manifested itself above the {{gdis|Battle Tower|III}}.

With the beast finally gone, the five petrified Pokédex holders back to life and Archie seemingly dead, Gold went and fought in a tournament in the [[Battle Dome]] against the other Pokédex holders, which he, at some point, lost (the only other Trainer to have been confirmed to lose is {{adv|Crystal}}, who lost against Green in the first round).

 

In ''[[PS408|High-tailing It from Haunter]]'', Gold was briefly seen together with the other [[Pokédex holder]]s from [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], and [[Hoenn]] when the [[Advanced level Grunt]] was talking to {{adv|Diamond}} about the [[Pokédex]].

Archer has Arceus use its power to create the three legendary Pokémon {{DL|Creation trio (Adventures)|Dialga}}, {{DL|Creation trio (Adventures)|Palkia}}, and {{DL|Creation trio (Adventures)|Giratina}}. Silver attempts to distract the Four Generals by feigning suicide, allowing Gold and Crystal to attack while their guard is down. With the assistance of Silver's Feraligatr, Gold and Crystal destroy the legendary Pokémon before they fully form with the Ultimate Attacks. With the three Pokémon destroyed, Arceus retaliates against the Four Generals by blowing them away and absorbs the Plates into its body.

In ''[[PAORAS20|Omega Alpha Adventure 20]]'', Gold, along with Crystal and Silver, was called by Emerald to ask for assistance in destroying a giant [[Grand Meteor Delta|meteoroid]] threatening to destroy the world. During the call, Gold revealed that [[Norman]] was with them after he had been accidentally left behind in Johto.

|desc={{p|Politoed|Polibo}} (Japanese: '''ニョたろう''' ''Nyotarō'') is one of the family Pokémon at Gold's home that he grew up with, beginning as a {{p|Poliwag}}. When Team Rocket grunts stole Gold's backpack containing the Poké Balls with Polibo's, he was washed away by the stream and ended up with a wild {{p|Granbull}}. Gold had hopes of evolving it into a {{p|Poliwrath}} after seeing {{adv|Red}}'s [[Poli]], but instead evolved into a Politoed right after his evolution into {{p|Poliwhirl}} from being traded with a [[King's Rock]] to {{adv|Silver}} in ''[[PS109|Ampharos Amore]]''. As of ''[[PS456|All About Arceus V]]'', he is at level 80, has a Quiet nature, and his [[Characteristic]] is "capable of taking hits."}}

|desc={{p|Typhlosion|Exbo}} (Japanese: '''バクたろう''' ''Baktarō'') was the Pokémon Gold had received from Professor Elm and evolved twice throughout his journey, first in ''[[PS108|Quilava Quandary]]'' and again in ''[[PS148|Lively Lugia III]]''. He gave Gold the upper hand while fighting the Masked Man at the end of the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}} with the help of Sunbo's {{m|Sunny Day}}. As of ''[[PS456|All About Arceus V]]'', he is at level 84, has an Impish nature, and his [[Characteristic]] is "a little quick tempered."}}

|desc={{p|Togekiss|Togebo}} (Japanese: '''トゲたろう''' ''Togetarō'') was created from an [[Egg]] created by [[Jasmine]]'s two {{p|Togetic}}. Due to Gold's special ability, Togebo inherited parts of Gold's personality, including his love of gambling. During a battle against {{adv|Arceus}}, Togebo evolved into a Togetic and then into a Togekiss with a Shiny Stone received from Lance. As of ''[[PS456|All About Arceus V]]'', he is at level 81, has a Naughty nature, and his [[Characteristic]] is "hates to lose."}}

None of Tibo's moves are known and his Ability is {{a|Water Absorb}}.}}

|desc=These {{p|Chinchou}} were caught by Gold whilst looking for [[Polibo]]'s missing {{i|Poké Ball}} simply to avoid being electrocuted and were quickly released afterward.

These are Pokémon Gold has grown up with in his home. He doesn't use any of them to battle except for [[Aibo]] and [[Polibo]], which are on his current team.
