Gold's ninth Pokémon. it was a gift from Bill after meeting him at the Ecruteak City Pokémon Center.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Disappeared after evolving into Ledian.

An owl Pokémon Kris' captured with the help of Falkner. It evolved at the National Park, and she traded it to Gold for his Nidorino to help with his rematch against Whitney.

* SpotlightStealingSquad: Kris ended up using Togepi more often than Bayleef once she hatches. But since Togepi's only evolve with maximum happiness, this is a case of tropes not being that bad.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Only seen early before Violet City and is not seen again.

!!! Ledyba
Kris' first captured Pokémon from the wild.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Only seen early before Violet City and is not seen again.

The Pokemon Professor of Johto.

!!! Mareep -> Flaaffy
Gold's third Pokémon, caught soon after Wooper. It evolved into Flaaffy while fighting Team Rocket in the Slowpoke Well.
* ElementalPunch: Gold teaches it Thunder Punch while training to beat Whitney since the techniques Flaaffy already knew weren't doing the job.
* TheParalyzer: It often uses Thunder Wave to paralyze opponents.
* ShockAndAwe: It's an Electric-type, so of course, it spends most of its time zapping foes with electricity.
* PutOnABus: Flaaffy stays in Olivine City to man the lighthouse while Gold and the others go to Cianwood Town to get the medicine to heal Amphy. It returns two episodes later, just in time for Gold's Gym battle against Jasmine.
* SpeedBlitz: It defeats Petrel's Drowzee by zipping around faster than the other Pokémon can react and striking it repeatedly, evolving from Mareep to Flaaffy in the process.

!!! Nidoran♂ -> Nidorino
Gold's fourth Pokémon, which he caught specifically to use as a trump card against Whitney's team. He ends up trading it away for Kris's Noctowl.

A bivalve mollusk Pokémon Kris caught at Olivine City. It managed to bite Kris' Slowpoke during a battle against Euisine, evolving the latter into Slowking.

* FusionDance: Slowpoke evolves into Slowking via Kris's Shellder clamping down on its head. While that's not accurate to the game mechanics (Trading a Slowpoke holding a King's Rock), it is accurate to the pokedex lore for Slowking, as is Slowpoke's earlier lamentations about Slowbro (Shellder has to bite the tail, which doesn't exist).

* MrFanservice: When Whitney [[InvokedTrope forces Gold to wear nothing but farmer overalls]] [[MsFanservice like she does]], it's shown Gold is rather good-lookingand and in the [[BeachEpisode Episode 21]] he is shown to be wearing nothing but a speedo, [[WalkingSwimsuitScene especially when he challenges Chuck in this costume]].

* MrFanservice: When Whitney [[InvokedTrope forces Gold to wear nothing but farmer overalls]] [[MsFanservice like she does]], it's shown Gold is rather good-looking.

* ForegoneConclusion: We know from the ''Red'' series how Gold's journey will end: with Gold challenging and defeating Red atop Mt. Silver and convincing him to return to Kanto. The series is how it goes up to that point.

[[folder: Kurt]]
A crafter of specialized Pokeballs out of Apricorn.

* AdaptationalBadass: He's able to help stop Team Rocket in Slowpoke Well, despite his back injury. Something he couldn't do in the original games.
* CoolOldGuy

!!Gym Leaders
[[folder: Falkner]]
The Violet City Gym Leader. Specializes in Flying Types.

* AHandfulForAnEye: His Pokémon repeatedly use Mud Slap to try and blind Gold's Cyndaquil.
* RomanticFalseLead: For Kris; the two have a rather close relationship, but Kris lets him down gently before she and Gold leave Violet City. [[spoiler: And it already was a ForegoneConclusion that Kris will end up with Silver.]]
* WarmUpBoss: He's the first Gym Leader that Gold faces. Gold manages to beat him without much effort.

[[folder: Bugsy]]
The Azalea Town Gym Leader. Specializes in Bug Types.

* AgeLift: Because of the TimeSkip between ''Red'' and ''Gold'' being longer, Bugsy is a young adult rather than a kid.
* AscendedExtra: He becomes one of Gold and Kris's closer friends alongside Whitney.
* BigDamnHeroes: In episode 6, he arrives at Slowpoke Well just in time to save Gold and Kris from Team Rocket's reinforcements.
* ExplainingYourPowerToTheEnemy: While fighting Gold, he takes the time to explain how Metapod and Kakuna have used String Shot to reduce Quilava's speed, leaving it too slow to evade Scyther's attacks. He also explains how Fury Cutter works after Gold noticed that the move was getting stronger with each use.
* FriendToBugs
* GatheringSteam: His Scyther's SignatureMove, Fury Cutter, starts out incredibly weak but doubles in power with every hit. After enough hits connect, it becomes strong enough to effectively one-shot Quilava despite the latter's resistance to Bug-type attacks.
* ScissorsCutsRock: His Bug-type Pokémon are at a disadvantage against Gold's Quilava, but this doesn't matter to Bugsy's Scyther. The Pokémon is so fast and agile that Quilava can't even hit it, and Fury Cutter's [[GatheringSteam constantly doubling power]] means that it eventually hits hard enough to knock Quilava out even ''with'' the latter's innate resistance to Bug-type moves.

[[folder: Whitney]]
The [[TheDreaded dreaded]] Goldenrod City Gym Leader. Specializes in Normal Types, [[SignatureMon but particularly Miltanks]].

!Protagonists

!Gym Leaders

* [[IJustWantToBeSpecial I Just Want to Evolve]]: Prior to episode 22, Slowpoke spends a lot of time lamenting that its lost tail means it'll never be able to evolve into Slowbro. Serves as foreshadowing of what it ultimately does instead.

* ScissorsCutsRock: It defeats Eusine's Electrode despite being at a type disadvantage by using its psychic powers to deflect Electrode's electrical attacks.

!!! Togepi -> Togetic
A baby Pokemon Kris received from an Egg Elm's Assistant entrusted to her. Togepi evolved into Togetic when she and Kris were fighting Euisine near Cianwood Town.

!!! Slowpoke -> Slowking
One of the many victims of Team Rocket's Slowpoke Tail schemes, Slowpoke was caught by Kris following her and Gold stopping Team Rocket at the Slowpoke Well. It evolved into Slowking after fusing with Kris' Shellder during a battle against Euisine.
* FusionDance: Slowpoke evolves into Slowking via Kris's Shellder clamping down on its head. While that's not accurate to the game mechanics (Trading a Slowpoke holding a King's Rock), it is accurate to the pokedex lore for Slowking, as is Slowpoke's earlier lamentations about Slowbro (Shellder has to bite the tail, which doesn't exist).
* [[IJustWantToBeSpecial I Just Want to Evolve]]: Prior to episode 22, Slowpoke spends a lot of time lamenting that its lost tail means it'll never be able to evolve into Slowbro. Serves as foreshadowing of what it ultimately does instead.
* ShoutOut: Just like with Red's Charizard in the prequel, its evolution is a massive one to ''Anime/DragonBallZ''. Where Charizard got the Super Saiyan 3 Goku reference, the Slowking evolution was more or less a shot-by-shot recration of Super Saiyan 2 Gohan, complete with Eusine taking the role of Cell and Kris's Pokedex taking the role of Android 16.
* ScissorsCutsRock: It defeats Eusine's Electrode despite being at a type disadvantage by using its psychic powers to deflect Electrode's electrical attacks.

[[folder: Silver]]
TheRival. A Pokemon thief who has a vendetta against Team Rocket.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Downplayed. He's still as antagonistic as in the original games, and is still a {{Jerkass}} and a thief. However, the web animation highlights that working for Team Rocket when he was a child has left a big trauma, even eight years later, [[FreudianExcuse which explains his behaviour]]. While he steals Totodile, a scene later shows he's not proud of his action. In the original game, there is no indication Silver has a past trauma related to being conscripted in Team Rocket or is regretful of his theft. He's also shown actively fighting against Team Rocket, [[AloofAlly even though he refuses to cooperate with Gold and Kris - or even to be seen by them]]. He also has feelings for Kris, but again, [[{{Tsundere}} he doesn't want to be seen by her]].
* AgeLift: See Gold's folder above.
* AloofAlly: When it comes to Team Rocket, Silver shares the same goal as Gold and Kris: To stop their criminal actions. However, he prefers to stay on his own - though when they're in the same area, such as during the battle of Slowpoke Well, he helps them from the shadows.
* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: Silver treats his Pokémon very harshly. When Kris runs into him at Sprout Tower, he's kicking his own Zubat at another trainer's Hoothoot and has left his battered, unconscious Totodile to lie on the floor instead of returning it to its Poké Ball or tending to its injuries. This callousness shocks Kris and earns Silver a tongue-lashing.
* BerserkButton: Team Rocket's criminal actions, especially the maiming of Pokémon, for Silver. He may be an aloof and callous jerk to his own Pokémon, but when a hiker tries to sell him some Slowpoke tails, Silver—who has seen firsthand the horrible way in which these tails are harvested—begins trembling with barely-repressed rage.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Silver is an aloof {{Jerkass}} who [[BadPeopleAbuseAnimals treats his Pokémon harshly, even kicking them]], but he hates Team Rocket with a passion for its criminal actions. The Slowpoke tails trafficking particularly revolts him.
* ForegoneConclusion: We know from the ''Red'' series that Silver is going to [[TookALevelInKindness warm up]] at least to [[LoveRedeems Kris, who he will marry]].
* FreudianExcuse: Silver's rude and brutal personality stems from his past negative experiences as a child, when he was working for Team Rocket because of his parents, and from the emotional burden of being Giovanni's son.
* GaveUpTooSoon: Subverted; he believes he can't have a chance on Kris because she appears to be intimate with Falkner, but right as Silver gave up, Kris let down Falkner. And even then, we know [[spoiler: Silver and Kris are going to be married with a child in the future]], so we know Silver will open up to Kris.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Silver is a {{Jerkass}} that [[BadPeopleAbuseAnimals treats his Pokémon horribly]] and refuses to associate himself with Gold and Kris despite them sharing his goal of stopping Team Rocket. However, when his MeleeATrois with Kris and Eusine gets interrupted by the temple collapsing, Silver shows no hesitation of [[HeroicSacrifice using his own body to soften Kris's fall]], showing that he does care about her, but is all {{Tsundere}} about it.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: He's the son of Ariana and the younger brother of [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Mars]]. Neither of them are confirmed to be related to him in any way in canon (though with Ariana, [[AmbiguouslyRelated there are suspicions]]).
* {{Tsundere}}: ''Extremely'' harsh type. He's mean to both [[{{Jerkass}} people]] and Pokémon, but [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold he shows no hesitation]] [[HeroicSacrifice to cushion Kris' fall]], showing that deep down he cares about her. His Pokémon also show UndyingLoyalty towards him, fighting a huge load of Koffings while he was unconscious; with the implication beint that they know Silver cares about her deep down, but has huge trouble expressing it. And, to complete the package, he has [[FreudianExcuse an utterly heartbreaking reason]] to be so harsh.

[[folder:Silver's Pokémon]]
!!! Totodile -> Croconaw -> Feraligatr
Silver's starter, which he stole from Professor Elm's lab. Though cheerful at first and eager to please, it quickly takes after its Trainer's worst habits, becoming a vicious ball of rage.

* CorruptTheCutie: It started out as a cheerful Totodile that just wanted its Trainer to show it some love and affection, but Silver wouldn’t give it the time of day. This led it to develop severe anger issues, and by the time it evolved into Croconaw it had become as surly and volatile as Silver himself.
* DeathGlare: It knows Leer, and used it to scare off a hiker who was trying to sell Silver some Slowpoke tails.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Croconaw is the first of the protagonists' starter Pokémon to reach its final form. This is accurate to the games: Croconaw evolves into Feraligatr at level 30, much earlier than Bayleef evolves into Meganium or Quilava into Typhlosion.
* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: Silver's Totodile is a brutal fighter who makes liberal use of the move Rage. [[spoiler:When it evolves into Feraligatr, it bites down on Ariana's Vileplume and gruesomely tears it to pieces.]]
* MakingASplash: It's a Water-type Pokémon, after all.
* ManBitesMan: It knows Bite. [[spoiler:It used that move to kill Ariana's Vileplume.]]

He also causes the Legendary Beasts to run away because he wants to catch them when, as stated by the Unowns, only the pure of heart trainers can catch them (with canon stating that Ethan, Kris, Lyra and, surprisingly enough, ''[[{{Jerkass}} Silver]]'' are trainers pure of heart).
