Red



Red is a famous Pokemon Trainer from Kanto who becomes a mentor for John and a major influence on how he wants to train his Pokemon.

Personality
Red is known for his outgoing, fun personality. He uses this while training his Pokemon, often opting for a funner way through things so he can make his Pokemon enjoy battling. When placed in dire situations, however, Red becomes very serious and it wouldn't be a good idea to get on his bad side.

History
Red was born and raised in Pallet Town of the Kanto region. He received a Pikachu as his starter Pokemon, because he woke up late and missed the alarm clock. The Pikachu was unruly to him but later learned to trust him. It still is a bit rebellious, however.

Red became a world-reknowned trainer following him being personally responsible for bringing down Team Rocket and locking away its leader, Giovanni. He has since become one of the most popular figures in the Pokemon world. His first appearance has him arriving to Sinnoh as an international celebrity and beginning his own Sinnoh journey alone. His first meeting with John, Skye, and David involves him saving them from Pikachu's ThunderShock attack, as they had startled it, causing himself to be electrocuted. He decides to temporarily join John, Skye, and David's group (SA014 - SA018), though leaves as he finds himself disgusted with David's unsanitary ways. He is encountered again as one of the members of the rescue party to find survivors of the cruise ship that crashes, which carried the same trio he previously traveled with.

During the battle between Giratina, Palkia and Dialga, Red is caught in the cave during its collapse and is presumed dead.
