− | + | Red grew up in [[Pallet Town]]. In the game it is said that he and [[Blue]] were rivals since infancy, but one instruction manual instead says that they were best friends until Blue started acting like a bully. The adventure begins when [[Professor Oak]] calls the two to his lab. In ''[[Pokemon: Red, Green and Blue Versions]]'', Red is allowed to choose the first starter Pokémon (out of [[Bulbasaur]], [[Ivysaur]] and [[Venusaur]]) with Blue choosing one strong against Red's Pokémon. In ''[[Pokémon: Yellow Version]]'', the Red receives a [[Pikachu]] and Blue gets an Evee. Both Red and Blue receive a Pokédex. | |
− | Red | + | Red travels through [[Kanto]] capturing Pokémon, battling other trainers, and earning Gym badges. However, he is always a step behind Blue. Red and Blue battle anytime their paths cross. Aside from the regular business of a Pokémon trainer, Red finds himself battling [[Team Rocket]] several times. At Mt. Moon, he foils their plot to steal fossils and defeats them again at Cerulean City. He saves the Pokémon Tower from them and destroys their operation at the Game Corner. Red faces their boss, [[Giovanni]], several times in combat. |
− | Red | + | Red's goals combine when Red winds up facing Giovanni for the final gym badge needed to battle the Elite Four. Red successfully defeated Giovanni, convincing him to shut down Team Rocket and reform. |
− | When Red | + | When Red reaches the [[Elite Four]], he finds that Blue has already beaten him and become the league Champion. Red beats Blue and earns the title for himself. In ''FireRed and LeafGreen'', Red and Blue's Pokédexes are updated by Professor Oak afterwards to include the recently-discovered Pokémon. Red and Blue journey out to the [[Sevii Islands]] to find them. There he also batteled the remains of Team Rocket. Red later challenged the Elite Four and Blue again, this time with all of them having new Pokémon. |
− | + | After becoming league Champion, Red gave the title up and went to a cave in Mt. Silver to train. When [[Gold]] comes to battle Red in ''[[Pokémon: Gold and Silver Versions]]'', he has the most powerful team of Pokémon in the game. | |

− | + | *Red also appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' under the name "Pokémon Trainer". He does not attack directly but sends out his three Pokémon - [[Ivysaur]], [[Squirtle]] and [[Charizard]]. He has his own trophy, a trophy of his Final Smash and a sticker, as well as one trophy for each of his Pokémon. | |
− | + | **In "The Subspace Emissary", Red is first seen in the Ruined Zoo, where he helps to protect [[Lucas]] in a battle against the Subspace Army. Apparently his Ivysaur and Charizard had gone missing, as the only Pokémon he still had was his Squirtle. The two hunted down the remaining Pokémon, eventually finding Ivysaur in the ruins and recapturing Charizard after defeating it in battle. They also battled [[Wario]] and the [[Galleom]]. Afterwards the Galleom attempted to self-destruct to finish them off, but Lucas saved them both by destroying the Galleom's arm, and [[Meta Knight]] caught them to save them from the fall. They then joined up with the main party for the remainder of the game. | |

Like Red, Ash has a rival, Gary, who is based on Blue, although the battles between Ash and Gary usually result in stalemates or victories for Gary, until Ash finally defeats him in the Silver Conference. Ash is also battling Team Rocket constantly, but he never battles Giovanni and convinces him to reform. Unlike Red, Ash also has traveling companions such as [[Misty]] and [[Brock]]. Instead of the Elite Four, Ash competes in a tournament at indigo Plateau and loses. He continues to journey through [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]]. |
− | + | *Red is featured in the ''Pokémon Adventures'' manga, being the main character of the original ''Red''/''Blue''/''Green'' arc and playing important roles in later arcs. In this arc he has both a [[Bulbasaur]] as his starter Pokémon and a rebellious Pikachu that he tames, and with the help of Blue and Green, as well as the good gym leaders such as Borck, Misty, [[Erika]] and [[Blaine]], he defeats Team Rocket. Afterwards he wins the Pokémon League championship by defeating Blue and aids Blaine in capturing the rebellious [[Mewtwo]]. Afterwards in the ''Yellow'' arc he is challenged by [[Bruno]] of the Elite Four, but it is a trap and he is frozen by [[Agatha]], but freed by [[Giovanni]]. He shows up to help the other trainers with the final battles against the Elite Four and defeats Bruno. In the ''Gold''/''Silver''/''Crystal'' arc, he recovers from the partial paralysis caused by the freezing at Mt. Silver, and turns down the Viridian City gym leader position after winning it. He goes to Johto to battle [[Pryce|the Mask of Ice]] and then is dragged off by Gold to train with him. Misty and Yellow are established as his two potential love interests. Red is once more featured on an adventure with Blue, Green and company in the ''FireRed''/''LeafGreen'' arc. Though the trainers are all turned into statues at the end of the arc, they are restored by [[Jirachi]]'s wish near the end of the ''Emerald'' arc, leading to all of the ten Pokédex-bearing trainers uniting against [[Archie]] and his artificial [[Kyogre]]. His specialty among the Pokédex trainers is shown to be Pokémon battling. | |
