(important facts only). | |||

'''Ash Ketchum''' (Japanese: '''サトシ''' ''Satoshi'', French: Sacha, German: Ash Ketchum, Korean: Jiu) is the main character of both series of the [[Pokémon anime]] and the manga [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]. His Japanese voice actress is 松本梨香 ''[[Rica Matsumoto]]'', his English voice actress is [[Veronica Taylor]] and his Brazilian voice actor is [[Fabio Lucindo]]. | |||

==Character== | |||
[[Image:Anime Ash.png|thumb|160px|Ash Ketchum from the anime]]Ash's goal, as described in the first episode, ''[[EP001|Pokémon! I Choose You!]]'', is to be the world's greatest [[Pokémon Master]]. Ash began his journey as a warm-hearted but stubborn and unskilled [[Pokémon trainer]]. He was forced to accept the irreverent [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] from [[Professor Oak]] as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he carelessly broke his alarm clock and woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. Many of his first [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s were given to him out of pity or gratitude rather than the result of his winning [[Pokémon battle]]s with the [[Gym Leader]]s. | |||
Ash has changed a great deal over the course of the series, but his earnesty and determination have remained. Never straying from his goal, he has remained loyal to his friends, his family, and his supporters, but most of all his Pokémon. Ash became a great trainer by learning to find and use the inner strength of each of his Pokémon by bonding with them and learning where their hidden abilities lie. For example, he uses his Pikachu's speed to outmaneuver larger foes and attack. Additionally, whereas Ash, in the first season of the series, trained not to further himself, but instead to catch more Pokémon than his childhood [[rival]], [[Gary Oak]]. He later slowed his pace, which allowed him to focus on the individual traits of each Pokémon. At the [[Silver Conference|Johto League Silver Conference]], with great humility and maturity, Ash finally won a battle against his old rival, signifying a great milestone in his history. | |||
In nearly every episode of the anime, Ash befriends someone who will influence him and cause him to strive to become a better trainer. Although he is not a dependent individual, he is still young and has learned to make his way relying on his friends. His true friends have joined him on his Pokémon journey through the years: [[Misty]], [[Brock]], [[Tracey Sketchit|Tracey]], [[May]], and [[Max]]. | |||
He has traversed much of the [[Pokémon World]] and has thus far participated in four [[Pokémon League#Championship competitions|Pokémon League regional competitions]], but he is still learning new things about Pokémon all the time. | |||
Ash apparently has a close connection with [[Legendary Pokémon]], especially {{p|Ho-oh}}. In the english dub of the [[The Power of One|second movie]], he was revealed to be "The Chosen One" - the one who would bring balance back to the world. | |||
==Family== | |||
Ash lived with his mother, [[Delia Ketchum]], until he left for his Pokémon journey at the age of ten. | |||
His father is never introduced. The anime suggests that his father was once a Pokémon trainer, but it is unclear whether he is still living. There is great controversy as to whom Ash's father really is, but the writers have chosen to not focus on this aspect of Ash's life. It is commonly thought that Ash's father in the anime is Giovanni. The reason for that being that they had no contact throughout the series. | |||
Ash is an only child, breaking from the tradition of several other main characters whose siblings are often a foil or focal point in their lives. | |||
