His dream is to become a [[Pokémon Master]] with the help of his favorite {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, {{p|Sandshrew}}. He ran an unofficial [[Gym]] which was not sponsored by the [[Pokémon League]] and therefore did not give out any [[Badge]]s. | ||

A.J. makes a cameo appearance in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}. In the chapter ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]'', he, along with [[Samurai]], {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} and {{an|Brock}}, make plans to find the [[Hidden Village]], where powerful wild Pokémon supposedly live. A.J. is particularly interested in high-[[level]]ed Pokémon such as {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Venusaur}}. He and Samurai are separated from Ash and Brock when {{AP|Pikachu}} goes missing. | A.J. makes a cameo appearance in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}.

In {{game|Yellow}}, a game based on the anime, there is a {{tc|Youngster}} on {{rt|9|Kanto}}. This Trainer solely uses a level 24 {{p|Sandshrew}} that has the move {{m|Fissure}}, much like A.J.'s Sandshrew in the anime. After the player wins the battle, he says, "I'll restart my 100-win streak with Sandshrew," a reference to the fact that A.J. won 100 battles. This Trainer may be A.J., or a reference to him. In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, this Trainer is originally a {{tc|Camper|Jr. Trainer♂}}, has a {{p|Growlithe}} and a {{p|Charmander}}, and says, "Keep walking!" after being defeated. | In {{game|Yellow}}, a game based on the anime, there is a {{tc|Youngster}} on {{rt|9|Kanto}}.
