Harrison (Japanese: ハヅキ Hazuki) is a character from the Pokémon anime. He began his journey in Littleroot Town, Hoenn, and competed in the Silver Conference.
History
He first appeared in Pop Goes the Sneasel. Along with Ash and his friends, Harrison tried to ward off a wild Sneasel that was guarding the sacred Ho-Oh flame. Harrison promised that he would capture it. Using his Blaziken, he did just that.
After many cameos during the qualifying rounds of the Silver Conference, Harrison appeared in Can't Beat the Heat, where he and Ash began their six-on-six battle. It continued in Playing with Fire and Johto Photo Finish. In the latter episode, Harrison defeated Ash, but went on to lose to Jon Dickson.
It was Harrison who convinced Ash to go to the Hoenn region. He told Ash about Professor Birch and all the Pokémon that Ash had probably never seen before.
Following the Silver Conference, Harrison went to Kanto to participate in the Indigo League.

Trivia
- Harrison has similarities to Ash's Hoenn League rivals, Morrison and Tyson. Each one has a "-son" at the end of their names and the final forms of one of the Hoenn starters, Tyson with a Sceptile, Harrison with a Blaziken, and Morrison with a Swampert. It should be noted that their similar names are not present in the original Japanese, so whether or not they were intended to be from the same group of Trainers as Jimmy, Marina, and Vincent or Ash and Gary Oak are is unknown.
- Harrison's name is also similar to that of Ash's Silver Conference and Ever Grande Conference opponents Jackson and Morrison. Along with the aforementioned "-son" ending, they are all named after famous singers (George Harrison, Michael Jackson and Jim Morrison respectively).
- Due to a dub error, it is at one point claimed that Harrison's hometown is Silver Town.
- Harrison is from the Hoenn region, yet he is known to only own two Hoenn-native Pokémon. All of his other known Pokémon, besides Hypno, are Generation II Pokémon.
