History Characters / PokemonJourneysTheSeriesCast

* CostumeEvolution: To signify her becoming a Pokémon trainer and officially joining Ash and Goh, she ditches her school uniform for a more adventurous getup with a pink blouse, yellow jacket and jeans.

* SignificantWardrobeShift: Starting in ''[=JN029=]'', she wears something other than her school uniform to symbolize how she isn't tied to her being a student. ''[=JN050=]'' gives her a pink blouse, jeans and yellow shoes to signify that she's now a Pokémon Trainer.

* ThemeNaming: Cerise is French for "cherry", so he's named for the cherry tree in the dub. Likewise, he's named for the cherry blossom (Sakura) in Japanese.

* CherryBlossomGirl: Her last name can be either "cherry blossom" (Japanese) or "cherry" (Dub) and when she's not in her uniform she frequently wears pink. Her swimsuit also has cherry blossoms on it. Starting with ''[=JN050=]'', she wears a pink blouse with cherry blossoms on it.

* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Her focus episode of ''[=JN011=]'' has her questioning what she wants to do; her classmates -- and teacher -- push her to have a career in Pokémon because her father is a professor even though she doesn't hate Pokémon but she's not a big lover of them either. Her mom advises her that she needs to find something that gives her joy and that she doesn't have to rush things yet. As time goes on, she becomes more interested in Pokémon; although she confides to Goh in ''[=JN049=]'' that she's still hesitant on actually catching any Pokémon (as she doesn't want to be pressured into it by other people), she ultimately decides to catch Eevee at the end of the episode (resulting in her officially becoming a Trainer and receiving a Rotom Phone) and resolves to take it one step at a time with her new partner.
** The 4th opening implies that Chloe might become a Pokemon Coordinator. ''[=JN105=]'' has her actually try out in a Contest with Lisia and Serena.

* ChildhoodFriends: With Goh to the point of being Goh's OnlyFriend. (Or perhaps it's the other way around) Yet despite this, they don't have a meaningful conversation until Episode 49.

* ADayInTheLimelight: While [=JN120=] starts off with Chloe and Eevee and their path for evolution, it's essentially him that takes the spotlight of the episode as he teaches her about Evolution and shares a story of his past when he befriends a wilf Eevee. This episode has him reunite with said Eevee.

* DislikesTheNewGuy: Chloe initially has a very frosty relationship with Ash, compared to Goh (who is quick to declare Ash his friend), her father (who makes him and Goh his research fellows), Ren, and Chrysa. She would often ignore him or make an occasional snarky remark in regards to him, and whenever he tried to speak with her, she would generally freeze up. Over time, she became more comfortable around Ash and seems to have fully accepted him as a friend by [=JN038=].

** ''[=JN011=]'' has Goh mention that Chloe wasn't so cold towards Pokémon in the past, hinting that something must've happened that caused her viewpoint to become jaded. It's implied that she's jealous of them, given how she hated Yamper for always taking everyone else's attention.

* JerkassRealization: Chloe distanced herself from befriending Pokémon and treated the family Yamper with coldness. Although she did come to respect him during the events of ''Best Friend... Worst Nightmare!'', Chloe still kept her distance around Yamper and other Pokémon. However, in ''There's a New Kid in Town!'', Chloe realized how she badly treated Yamper, after hearing how jealous she was during her childhood and remembering that he rescued her from a group of Venonat. Since then, Chloe has grown closer to Yamper and opened herself back up into befriending and loving Pokémon again.

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In ''There's a New Kid in Town!'' as a young girl, she got angry at Yamper stealing everyone's attention so she wished for him to go away. She soon realized her mistake and went out to find him again, was menaced by three Venonat in a dark playground, and burst into tears as they approached, but then Yamper came out and shooed them away.

* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: To Lillie's Vulpix, Snowy. While both Yamper and Snowy are loyal to their trainers, Chloe is known to act cold towards the corgi -- even becoming jealous of him when she was little -- and hesitates to command him to unleash a simple Spark. Meanwhile, when Lillie and Snowy are caught in danger, Lillie is quick to have Snowy attack with Powder Snow to defend itself and even go so far as to jump from a side of a building to save it. Yamper was a gift originally given to Professor Cerise while Snowy was an egg given to Lillie to raise.

* {{Foil}}: To Ash's Pikachu. Both are Electrical types, with Pikachu acting friendly towards everyone and is an experienced battler. Yamper, in the meantime, is closest only to Chloe to the point of being loyal only to her and has no battle experience at all. Chloe treats Yamper more like a pet, which is the nicest way to put it, while Pikachu and Ash are best friends. Pikachu was Ash's stater Pokémon whereas Yamper was gifted to the Cerise family.

** To Chloe, who ironically acts the coldest towards him among her family. So much so that he doesn't battle and accept a command unless Chloe, and ''only'' Chloe, tells him to as shown in ''[=JN011=]''. ''[=JN029=]'' reveals that this is because after Chloe wished that he disappeared, she realized her mistake and went back to find him, thus Yamper repaid this kindness by sleeping in her bed and only eating food given by her.

* BadassAdorable: A fluffy little 'mon with the Copycat move capable of knocking Pelipper out of the sky once she copies Spark. Notably, any move she copies seems to be much more powerful than the one who used it. (Example: Dawn's Piplup uses Bubblebeam against a Rhydon but does nothing. Eevee copies it and it goes down with one strike)

* {{Foil}}: To Ash's Pikachu. They're both starters to a trainer who don't evolve[[note]]Pikachu because he chooses not to, while Eevee is unable to for some reason[[/note]] who became official Pokémon partners after they used an electrical attack on a Flying-type (Pikachu against the Spearow flock, Eevee against Team Rocket's Pelipper). Pikachu starts with Electric moves, while Eevee can only duplicate them via Copycat.

* BigSisterWorship: As shown in ''[=JN058=]'', she is shown to really admire and look up to Chrysa, to the point of deciding to stay with her in her apartment.

* BreakingOldTrends: Chloe isn't eager to get into a life with Pokémon, is more introverted, goes to a human school and (initially) wants little to do with Ash Ketchum himself. And, on a lesser note, she's a CanonForeigner not based on anyone from the games.

->'''Voiced in English by:''' Creator/BillyKametz

* ADayInTheLimelight: ''[=JN093=]'' is all about him and Françoise meeting for the first time.
* {{Determinator}}: When it comes to Françoise, he'll do anything to make sure it's safe.

* MakeMeWannaShout: His Magnemite, Françoise knows Supersonic.
* MeaningfulRename: In-series, Françoise's nickname comes from the cafe where Ren met it.

* PickyEater: Not him, but Françoise, who only consumes electricity from antique appliances.
* SatelliteCharacter: Downplayed. He’s Prof. Cerise's assistant and appears to have known his family since Chloe was younger, but outside of having a Magnemite and being a LovableCoward, there’s not much else known about him. Episode 93 fleshes him out some more and focuses on his relationship with Françoise.

* ShockAndAwe: Owns a Magnemite nicknamed Françoise, an Electric/Steel-type.

* ADayInTheLimelight: ''Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!'', ''There's a New Kid in Town!'', and ''The Cuteness Quotient!'' puts her in the spotlight in place of Ash and Goh, with ''[=JN038=]'' giving her a fair amount of focus as well. ''[=JN049=]'' shows her officially becoming a Pokémon Trainer. ''[=JN074=]'' has her set off on her first solo journey, meeting Dawn in the process.

* ShockAndAwe: It's an Electric-type with its only move being Spark.

* ADayInTheLimelight: ''[=JN057=]'' is all about her.

* HotScientist: She is a rather attractive woman.

* AdvertisedExtra: She's considered the {{Tritagonist}} of the series but the number of episodes that actually have her as the focus character in the first season can literally be counted one hand.

* BewareTheQuietOnes: In ''[=JN031=]'' a couple of girls make dismissive comments about Jinny's Feebas. Chloe shuts them up with the mother of all {{Death Glare}}s.

* PowerCopying: She knows Copycat.

[[quoteright:349:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/go_pokemon_2019_172827.jpg]]
->'''Voiced in Japanese by:''' Creator/DaikiYamashita (''Age 10''), [[Creator/KeiShindou Kei Shindo]] (''Age 6'')
->'''Voiced in English by:''' Creator/ZenoRobinson
->'''Voiced in Latin American Spanish by:''' Diego Becerril

Goh is Ash's traveling companion for the ''Pokémon Journeys'' anime. A native of Vermillion City, Kanto, Goh attended one of Professor Oak's Pokémon summer camps at age 6, during which he first saw the Mythical Pokémon Mew, which he witnessed saving a baby Kangaskhan. His mission, besides becoming a top-tier Pokémon trainer (though not explicitly a Pokémon Master like Ash), is to someday find and catch Mew.

* AmbiguouslyBrown: His skin color is a rather dark tan. Based on how he shares it with the rest of his family, there's an implication that he's of a dark-skinned ethnicity, similar to Brock and his family. In the English dub, he is voiced by Zeno Robinson, who is Black. Averted in the original Japanese version, as both Goh and Brock/Takeshi were never intended to be anything but fully Japanese with dark skin.
* AmbiguousDisorder: He has some traits that can be read as him being neurodivergent. He tends to hyperfocus on Pokémon and Mew, struggled to empathize with Scorbunny, seemed to have little interest in social interactions as a child and in ''Not Too Close for Comfort!'' he admits to Drizzile that he didn't like to play with his classmates but he wasn't sure why and being asked "why" constantly only frustrated him.
* AwesomeButImpractical: A funny example in ''A Test in Paradise!'', he packs a whole case of Poké Balls, for the adventure to Dragonite Island, but he wastes them all on catching a Dewgong which was intended to get them to Dragonite Island...and only realizes much later when he is actually on the island and tries to catch a Dragonite that he used them all up.
* AwesomeByAnalysis: ''Crowning the Chow Crusher!'' shows he has a keen eye as his opponent for the eating contest second round didn't eat the cookies Team Rocket brought -- not just because they would immediately bloat the stomachs of those who ate it -- but because their Muk hated sweet things. Goh also decided that they would eat the Pecha Tart because of its sweetness and even had Skowvet keep a Tamato Berry on hand to not only change tastes but also have the spiciness overwork its metabolism to keep on eating!
* BadLiar: He claims that the then-wild Scorbunny was his trying to defend it from a store owner. The owner sees right through him, having known the Scorbunny longer than Goh.
* BarelyChangedDubName: The American dub changes his name from Go to Goh, to avoid confusion with ''Videogame/PokemonGo.''
* BigEater: Like Ash, Goh loves to eat food and desserts. The two also spend time eating together. They even had an entire episode eating the rewards from the Pokemon eating competition.
* {{Bishounen}}: Implied with his NonStandardCharacterDesign. His longer eyelashes and the red streaks on his hair resembling hairclips make him appear quite androgynous.
* BornLucky:
** Usually he catches Pokémon effortlessly without so much hitting them with a measly Tackle but just by flinging a ball ''once'' at them. He would have made Iris faint in shock. This seems to be because, at least in part, the series is following the ''Videogame/PokemonGo'' model of catching, where a sufficiently good throw has a better chance of capturing a Pokémon, as evidenced by his phone occasionally shouting out "Nice!", "Great!", and so forth on his throws.
** This gets averted in ''A Test in Paradise!'' where he uses ''every single Poké Ball'' he had on him just to catch one Dewgong and later realizes it too late when he attempts to catch a Dragonite, again in [=JN011=], with the three Wurmple he previously caught in [=JN007=]. He caught three in the hopes that he would get at least one of each of the two possible Wurmple evolutions; unfortunately for him, all three Wurmple evolve into Cascoon, leaving him with no Silcoon. Later examples of trickier captures for him include Farfetch'd in [=JN020=], Flygon in [=JN036=] and Aerodactyl in ''Restore and Renew!'' though they remain exceptions to the overall rule.
* ButtMonkey: He is subjected to as much slapstick as Ash is.
* BrainsAndBrawn: The Brains to Ash's Brawn. He's the one who has textbook knowledge of Pokémon and is more about collecting data, compared to Ash tackling things head on and is capable of more physical feats.
* BrilliantButLazy: He's really interested in the studies of Pokémon... but not in his academics as he mutters that he doesn't really need the school handouts Chloe gives him. ''[=JN049=]'' reveals that he doesn't go to school unless it's for mandatory tests.
* CameraFiend: A lighthearted example where he's upset his Pokemon data (which included pictures he's taken) is stolen from the lab.
* CanonForeigner: He's the third of Ash's companions (after Tracey and Max) to not be based on an actual character from the games.
* {{Catchphrase}}: Is quite fond of saying that he has the future within his hands. ''Time After Time!'' reveals that it was actually lifted from a song his dad was singing.
* CerebusCallback: His mentioning to Ash in ''Ivysaur's Mysterious Tower!'' of how Ash is "one of those guys too" becomes this in ''Time After Time!'' when we find out that he felt betrayed when his new friend Horace stood him up. [[spoiler:(He didn't, Horace fell ill)]]
* CharacterDevelopment: Goh has grown a lot through his time with Ash as he learns how to open up in befriending and socializing with people, along with understanding the feelings of his Pokémon, attempting to put their happiness first, and getting better at battling techniques. However, he still has social problems as shown in [=JN068=] where he would rather not want to be working with other people in Project Mew or take on the trials, only changing his mind after being goaded into it by [[spoiler:Gary]].
* ChildhoodFriends: With Chloe, to the point of Chloe being his OnlyFriend until Ash arrived. He also befriended a boy named Horace.
* CrazyPrepared:
** Captures three Wurmple in ''Serving Up the Flute Cup!'' so he can get both Silcoon and Cascoon. Unfortunately all three of his Wurmple evolve into Cascoon.
** Packs an entire backpack filled with Poké Balls in ''[=JN010=]'', but uses every single one trying to capture a Dewgong.
* CryCute: If there's an episode where he has to bond or solve a conflict with a Pokémon, there is a 75% chance he will open the waterworks.
* CurbStompBattle: Gets thrashed by Hodge in ''Serving Up the Flute Cup!'', even after he tries to use type-advantages and StatusBuff to help out. Justified as he's only a newbie.
* DarkAndTroubledPast:
** ''Ivysaur's Mysterious Tower!'' hints at this. When he and Ash get into an argument on helping an Ivysaur climb the wall, Goh states that Ash is helping out of human conceit and that interfering with helping them is "robbing it of its will to live". And upon Ash stating that he doesn't want to be Goh's friend, Goh coldly mutters "So, you're one of ''those'' guys, too."
** ''Time After Time!'' reveals that he made a friend in Horace when they were younger but felt like he was betrayed when Horace didn't show up for their hunt for Celebi. [[spoiler:It turns out Horace wanted to go but he caught a fever on that day and blamed himself for not being able to see Goh again.]]
* DarkIsNotEvil: Has raven black hair and a grey hooded jacket, but he's a friendly guy.
* ADayInTheLimelight: ''Time After Time!'' focuses on him with no Ash in sight.
* DependingOnTheWriter:
** Is he as smart as, smarter, or dumber than Ash? Several episodes show that he is extremely knowlegeable as a Pokédex and actually uses his wide amount of Pokémon as the right tools to solve certain situations, but then there are some episodes when he is relegated to be a second dumber Ash and fails to stand out.
** Is he as socially awkward as he is portrayed to be? His social anxiety was noted to be a huge drawback when he was younger. After meeting Ash, though, he doesn't try to avoid any sort of close social interation with other strangers, but at times, when RuleOfDrama rears its head, he suddenly reverts to his social awkward self out of the blue (and sometimes he uses that as a way to connect to others).
* {{Deuteragonist}}: Goh is considered Ash's co-lead for the ''Journeys'' series, the first companion since [[Anime/PokemonTheSeriesDiamondAndPearl Dawn]] to receive equal focus as Ash.
* DubNameChange: A very minor one, but an "h" is added to the end of his name, probably to avoid confusion with the [[VideoGame/PokemonGo mobile app]].
* EpicFail:
** When he attempts to catch Scorbunny, he whiffs his throw and Scorbunny has to catch himself.
** In ''A Test in Paradise!'', he fills his backpack with Poké Balls in preparation for Dragonite Island...and proceeds to use every single one just for a sole Dewgong he wanted to use to travel to said island without bothering to battle it first.
** In ''Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!'', he attempts to catch a rogue Gengar loose in the Cerise Institute, his first Pokéball is deflected and hits him in the head. Even when he tries throwing multiple Poké Balls, are all deflected back at him.
** It takes him three tries to catch Farfetch'd in ''Dreams Are Made of These!'', and the first two end poorly for Goh.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: In the first episode, he's quick to name every single Pokémon in the camp... in front of ''Professor Oak'' nonetheless. He also claims to Chloe that he doesn't need friends and he has a sole focus on capturing Mew.
* EurekaMoment: Realizing his Pokeballs will float to the surface if he tries while underwater, he has Inteleon use Snipe Shot to send it into Kingdra and successfully catches it.
* FatalFlaw:
** His stubbornness. Despite being the intellectual foil to Ash, his tunnel vision in regards to catching Pokémon sometimes gets in the way of crucial things about being a Trainer. Examples include, initially rejecting Scorbunny's wish to be his partner (due to wanting to have Mew be his starter), wasting all his Poké Balls on a sole Dewgong -- without battling it first -- preventing him from capturing a member of the Dratini line, refusing to actually get into battles or even battling Pokémon to capture them (barring Scyther, Sandile and Golurk), and ''Kicking It from Here Into Tomorrow!'' has him reject the idea of Scorbunny learning Ember (after Scorbunny failed many times to perform this attack) because he assumes that Double Kick/Quick Attack is already perfect.
** Another flaw of his is him overestimating his abilities. He captures ''most'' of his Pokémon with a single ball but it never occurs for him to battle with those that take multiple tries. And again, he doesn't think Scorbunny needs to learn Ember because he believes its moveset is fine as it is.
** A third flaw, stemming from his desire not to make friends and focus on Mew, is that he has a hard time understanding others. A minor argument between him and Ash makes him think their friendship is over. In ''Serving Up the Flute Cup!'', he mistakes a trainer's playful banter for insults, then lashes out at him. In ''Kicking It from Here Into Tomorrow!'', instead of encouraging Scorbunny's desire to train and improve its moveset, he discourages his Pokémon and says that its Quick Attack and Double Kick attacks are enough. He only meant to comfort Scorbunny and was concerned about it pushing itself so hard, but it took Ash explaining things to him that he isn't trying to see things from his Pokémon's perspective. In ''Time After Time!'', he misunderstood Horace falling ill as him downright ''abandoning'' him, thus souring his views on friendship for two years and isolating himself from other people.
** In relation to his third flaw, when it comes to trying new things he tends to give up too easily: again, he feels like his friendship with Ash was over after a disagreement, after losing to Hodge he just shouts that catching Pokemon is more fun than battling; he tells Scorbunny to just give up on learning Ember and ''Time After Time'' has him (wrongly) think that Raboot is better off with the new friends he made in Hoenn and leave on the train without saying goodbye (something that Ash is ''very'' quick to point out). While he admits that he's partially to blame for not trying to fix things, he also doesn't know how to fix it.
** Another flaw is that he doesn't like doing anything that's difficult. Despite Professor Oak giving him a chance to find Mew via Project Mew, he initially declines because he doesn't like the idea of working with others. It takes Gary acting like a jerk to motivate Goh to take the plunge.
** Teamwork: As mentioned above, Goh initially turned down the opportunity to join Project Mew because he doesn't like working with other people. This comes back to bite him in [=JN102=], when his refusal to cooperate with Gary and Horace leads to them losing their Raid Battle with Articuno and him nearly nearly failing his Trial Mission.
* FireForgedFriends:
** Ash and Goh really begin to become friends after their first battle with Jessie and James. Likewise, he discards his fixation on having Mew be his first Pokémon thanks to Scorbunny's assistance, leading to him catching the latter officially.
** He also has bouts of this with Kiawe in episode 37, where he is quick to show distrust towards him because of how he comments about Ash. However, after their battle together, Goh is saved by Marowak and the battle is called off, which helps them to earn each other's respect.
* {{Foil}}: Goh is quite a contrast to Ash.
** In comparison to Ash, Goh is characterized by being an intellectual individual while Ash is known for just [[LeeroyJenkins jumping in without thinking]]. His observations with Lugia show off video and photo evidence, while Ash was known for explaining the emotional bond Lugia gave to him and Goh. How they plan to encounter Lugia counts too: Ash runs off to battle Lugia the moment he hears about its arrival before even knowing what to expect, getting lost along the way, whereas Goh already was camping out (evidenced by a tent) and timing when Lugia was about to arrive. Last, Ash decides to actually battle Lugia first before hopping onto Lugia whereas Goh (having no Mon at the time) is ready to chase after him and then hop on.
** In addition, as seen in ''Ivysaur's Mysterious Tower!'' he also seems to struggle physically compared to the more athletic Ash, as seen when struggled to climb a brick wall and shimmy up a pole, where Ash had little trouble if any. Also in their work as research assistants, Goh seems more focused on gathering data and observing Pokémon, while Ash is more focused on interacting with and bonding emotionally with Pokémon.
** Despite catching more Pokémon at a quicker pace than Ash, Goh is still an inexperienced Pokémon battler, while Ash is an experienced veteran. This can be seen in ''Serving Up the Flute Cup!'', where they enter the Battle Frontier and both faced Hodge. In Goh's battle, Goh banks on Scyther having a type advantage and decides to open with a StatusBuff, which results in a curbstomp when Hodge has Mightyena use a Fire-type move against it. Ash, by contrast, dominates the entire bracket to the finals and KO's both of Hodge's Pokémon with little difficulty by using unorthodox strategies and his gut instinct.
** Emotion-wise, Ash is willing to help out Pokémon but Goh feels like those who can't do things on their own should be at the "end of the line" and interfering with said mons means "robbing its will to live".
** Goh's GoalInLife is to capture all types of Pokémon and to reunite with Mew once more. Ash, in the meantime, is focused on hoping to challenge Leon in the World Coronation Series.
** Goh lives in the city in a high-class apartment with a grandmother, a mother and father (the last two running a company that deals with technical problems). Ash lives in the quiet Pallet Town with his mother (who, according to supplementary materials, runs a restaurant). Goh's parents are so busy that they don't have time for their son (something he acknowledges but pretends to not mind) but Ash's mom frequently visits her son in whatever region he's in.
** Goh is not interested in making his Pokémon stronger in battle if they don't request it first, while Ash is willing to help train his Pokémon, mostly in unorthodox ways. This becomes important for ''Kicking It From Here Into Tomorrow!'' because Ash wishes to help Scorbunny to learn Ember, but Goh states that its Quick Attack/Double Kick moveset is perfect.
** During the orientation in ''Dreams Are Made of These!'', Ash is having fun getting the children with him to interact with Pokémon with a hands-on approach. Meanwhile, Goh is more enthusiastic about capturing Pokémon whenever possible. Also, while Ash is willing to battle Trainers to show his skills and make bonds with them, Goh will only battle if it means capturing Pokémon
* {{Forgiveness}}: Goh befriended a a boy named Horace when he was younger but felt betrayed when he didn't show up like he said he would. However, in ''Time After Time!'', Goh discovers a letter from Horace explaining why he didn't come and that he wanted to fix the mistake. After reading the letter, Goh forgives Horace and got the chance to see him again as a Pokémon Trainer.
* FriendlessBackground: ''Enter Pikachu!='' has 6-year-old Goh state he doesn't want to make friends, outside of Chloe. In ''IvySaur's Mysterious Tower!'' he mutters, after Ash says he didn't want to be friends with Goh, that he's "one of ''those'' people".
** It's shown via flashbacks in ''A Snow Day for Searching!'' Goh pretty much spent his childhood at home on his computer doing research on Mew and couldn't make any real friends, a revelation that saddens his Scorbunny.
* TheFriendsWhoNeverHang: Despite being Chloe's ChildhoodFriend, they never get to talk or hang out until ''To Train or Not to Train!'' (episode ''49'') because Goh never goes to school with her unless it's for testing.
* GoalInLife: He's dead-set on catching Mew, to the point that he wants Mew to be his first Pokémon instead of one of the traditional Kanto starters. It doesn't seem to occur to him that the task might be a tad difficult without any Pokémon to help. By the end of episode five, Scorbunny's assistance has led to him discarding this single-target fixation, and while Mew is still his goal, by the end of episode six he's caught ''all twelve'' Kanto bug Pokémon and looking to catch more.
* GottaCatchThemAll: After capturing Scorbunny, he becomes keen on acquiring one of every species of Pokémon. His character ''is'' a shout-out to [[VideoGame/PokemonGo Pokémon Go]], after all.
* HeroicBSOD: Has a brief one when he suffers a total shutout in his first Trainer battle in ''[=JN007=]''. It takes seeing Ash winning against Hodge -- the same one who gave Goh a CurbStompBattle -- to make him change his mind.
* HiddenDepths: Judging by Ash's "I don't want to be friends" line in ''Ivysaur's Mysterious Tower!'' and his response to that, it's hinted that Goh doesn't have good experiences with friends, and is somewhat asking Ash if they were still friends (all while blushing) after they had a small fight. This also adds onto how he immediately stated Ash was his friend the episode prior.
** ''Time After Time'' hints that this might be the case, possibly from [[WeUsedToBeFriends having broken a friendship before]]. He befriended a boy named Horace during a vacation in Azalea Town who promised that they'd meet up again to find Celebi, but Goh was left waiting and thus thought Horace just downright abandoned him thus souring his view on friendships. [[spoiler:It turns out that this was a huge misunderstanding; Horace didn't abandon him, he fell ill and couldn't go see him in the storm. By the time he was better, Goh was gone.]]
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Goh's refusal to listen to Gary's orders and doing everything his way instead is what leads to him, Ash, Horace and Gary losing their Raid Battle against Articuno and causing him to nearly fail his Trial Mission..
* {{Hypocrite}}: He tells Scorbunny that he should expand his horizons when they first meet. Yet, in the preview of ''Kicking It from Here Into Tomorrow!'', he's shown to be dismissive of Scorbunny's desire to become stronger because he thinks that Double Kick/Quick Attack is perfect. Moreover, he doesn't want Scorbunny -- the ''Fire-type'' -- to learn a Fire-Move, yet he caught a Darmanitan just three episodes prior.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Tries to tell Scorbunny that it's okay not to learn Ember because Quick Attack/Double Kick is perfect because he saw how exhausted Scorbunny was from its attempts. This ends up doing the ''opposite'' effect, straining their relationship once Scorbunny evolves because it sees Goh as someone who doesn't care for it. He nearly does the same thing again to Sobble but quickly goes to correct himself.
* InnocentBlueEyes: His eyes are blue, innocent, sweet and pure, just like the Mystical Pokemon Mew.
* ItsAllMyFault:
** In ''Goodbye, Friend!'', he admits that it's his fault for why he and Raboot's bond has been seemingly fractured and decides that it's better back in Hoenn. However, Ash does not buy this as he asks if Goh ''told'' Raboot about this decision. Goh's reaction proves that he doesn't want Raboot to leave.
** In ''Sobbing Sobble!'', Goh blames himself for forcing Sobble into battle, thus causing the Water-type to run away, because he didn't consider its feelings. Fortunately, Ash reassures Goh that he wasn't going to get it on the first try and to try again.
* MeaningfulName: Quite blatantly a walking advertisement for ''VideoGame/PokemonGo''. His 'dex even rates his catches with the same words used in the game.
* MechanicallyUnusualFighter: An ''anime'' example due to working with ''VideoGame/PokemonGo'' logic:
** There is his obscene luck in catching Pokémon by just tossing a ball at them.
** Sometimes when he needs to catch a stronger Pokémon;this is done in Raid Battle format, with Ash usually assisting him.
** His dex rates his captures using the same words from the game.
* MenDontCry: A moment of this happens in [=JN078=], when he's about to cry when Inteleon is standing by his side again but quickly wipes them out.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
** In ''Goodbye, Friend!'', Goh was willing to just say goodbye to Raboot and leave it in Hoenn. It takes Ash [[WhatTheHellHero questioning]] if Goh actually went and ''told'' Raboot about releasing him that he realizes that he doesn't ''want'' Raboot to leave and that he didn't really bother to actually make amends. By the time he realizes this, it's too late and the train is speeding off... but luckily for Goh, Raboot had boarded the train in time and the two of them are able to fully reconcile.
** In ''Time After Time'', after spending much of the episode holding a grudge against his friend Horace for snubbing him on the day they were supposed to meet up to hunt for Celebi, he finds a note that explains that the latter had fallen ill and couldn't make it. After reading it, he's visibly kicking himself over thinking so wrongly of him for two years.
* NaiveNewcomer: Though knowledgeable, he is inexperienced compared to Ash, not even having picked a starter when the two met (as he wants Mew to be said starter). He's also understandably surprised that Team Rocket actually has a talking Meowth (thinking it was just a rumor). Also, having never thrown a Poké Ball to catch a Pokémon before, he throws one at Scorbunny with so much spin that it misses completely, nor does it ever occur to him to actually battle a Pokémon to ensure higher catch rates. The latter leads him to blow through an entire backpack of Poké Balls on a Dewgong, leaving him with none to catch the Dragonite evolution line Dragonite Island. This also applies to battles in which in his debut battle he gets curbstomped since he focused more on status buffs and type advantage and has no idea what to do against opponents who go against his expectations.
** In ''Kicking It from Here Into Tomorrow!'', he doesn't think Scorbunny needs to learn Ember, even though it's a ''Fire-type'', because he thinks that Double Kick/Quick Attack is already good enough as it is, not understanding that it's kinda important for Pokémon to have a diverse moveset. He does get out of this so that Scorbunny can learn Ember in its own special way, just in time so it can evolve into Raboot...but his earlier dismissal of Scorbunny's desires to learn Ember seems to have soured their friendship.
* NeverBeHurtAgain: After his old friend Horace ended up being a no-show on the day they were supposed to meet up and look for Celebi (in actuality, falling ill), Goh was so hurt that he decided to surround himself with lots of Pokemon, so he would never feel the pain of betrayal from human friends again. While he was initially content on having Chloe as his only friend, in ''Legend? Go! Friends? Go!'', Goh meets and gets to know Ash, deciding to become friends with him. Despite eventually making more human friends beside Chloe and Ash, Goh still felt hurt from his past with Horace and still closed himself off little. However, in ''Time After Time'', Goh finally finds out the truth from a letter Horace left him and fully forgives him.
* NoManShouldHaveThisPower: [[spoiler:Goh catches the legendary Eternatus, but decided to seal it away to prevent the Darkest Day disaster from occurring again.]]
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: The first male character to have noticeable eyelashes. It caused many fans to theorize that he was actually a girl masquerading as a boy (this theory was shot down by numerous analyses, and torpedoed for good by the casting of Zeno Robinson in the English dub).
* NoSocialSkills: His desire to not make friends and focus on capturing Mew means that he has no ability to deal with conflicts, playful taunts or even understanding his Pokémon's desires. After a brief argument with Ash over Ivysaur, he felt like their friendship was already over. He was unable to take Hodge's playful taunts and felt like he was insulting him. And his attempts to comfort Scorbunny by saying it shouldn't learn Ember because its other moves were okay end up getting the rabbit Pokémon mad at him because it felt like Goh didn't want him to grow, leading to the newly evolved Raboot walking away in silence.
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome:
** At the end of ''Solitary and Menacing!'', he is revealed to have defeated the Karate Master in order to obtain a Hitmonchan.
** Goh ends up catching both his White Flower Flabébé and Chinchou offscreen.
* OhCrap: Goh's reaction in ''[=JN100=]'' when Sonia invites him for a ride in her car as he tries and fails to evade her.
* PoorCommunicationKills: He tries to tell Scorbunny that its attempts at Ember aren't working before snapping at the bunny. Goh questions why Scorbunny is acting crazy over this move when he felt like it was okay using its Quick Attack/Double Kick strategy before Ash explains that he has to see it through Scorbunny's eyes. Unfortunately despite Goh figuring out a way for Scorbunny to use Ember, when it evolves into Raboot, the evolved mon's personality has changed and walks away in silence.
** He immediately assumed Horace betrayed him when the boy didn't show up. Turns out Horace couldn't because he was sick.
* RedOniBlueOni:
** Although Goh is capable of HotBlooded moments, in general, he is characterized as the Blue to Ash's Red, being the calm intellectual type that focuses on data gathering than emotional bonds.
** He's also the Red to Chloe's Blue, regarding their respective attitudes towards Pokemon.
* RunningGag:
** When wild Pokémon deflect his Poké Balls back at him, they always smack him right in the face.
** For all his luck at catching other Pokémon, Goh can't catch a Pidgeotto to save his life. Until the end of ''[=JN070=]''
** Whenever he runs into Sonia, he winds up getting a ride in her car and freaking out by her reckless driving.
* ShouldntWeBeInSchoolRightNow: Subverted. Goh may be active in the Cerise institute as a research fellow, but he still keeps up with his studies and still visits school occasionally to take his tests.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Besides having the hair style of his father he is the splitting image of his mom.
* TeamMom: Grows into one as the series goes on fussing over his pokémon and Ash and often putting himself in harm's way to protect them.
* TheSocialDarwinist: Downplayed but when it came to the mystery of the parading Ivysaur in ''[=JN003=]'' he tells Ash that, when trying to help an Ivysaur climb up a wall, interfering with helping it meant that he and Ash would "rob it of its will to live".
** Possibly gotten over it as he had no problem with Ash teaching a (at the time) wild Dragonair how to Fly.
* TheStrategist: As the series goes on, he gets much better at Pokemon battling and even catching -- when he was helping Suicune heal from its ailments, he captured a Drowzee on the way as he realized the poachers all used Poison types. He didn't plan for the Houndoom their boss had though.
* ThirdTimesTheCharm:
** It takes Goh three attempts to successfully catch his Farfetch'd.
** Goh attempts to catch a Pidgeotto in three separate episodes with the 3rd episode being successful.
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:Goh being brave enough to catch the legendary Eternatus. No traveling companion was capable of catching any of the legendaries. Not even Ash.]]
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Cream stew with star-shaped carrots. His grandma was making this when he came home in ''A Snow Day for Searching!'' and he was going to share some with Horace as shown in the flashback of ''Time After Time!''
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: No one - not even Ash himself - comments on Goh catching Pokémon effortessly as easy as breathing fresh air without weakening them with a battle first, when previously such tactic was not recommended at best or looked down upon at worst.
* VocalDissonance: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] in the Japanese Dub, he sounds like his age but [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] in the English Dub, he sounds like he's in his mid-teens despite being Ash's age.
* WhatTheHellHero: In ''Goodbye, Friend!'', Goh tells Ash he's letting Raboot stay in the Hoenn region with some new pals it befriended. Ash ''does not buy this'' and asks if Goh personally told Raboot.
* WhenYouComingHomeDad: His parents are often busy with their work to spend time with him, but Goh understands and still loves them.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: ''[=JN091=]''. implies he's terrofied of Ghosts and Ghost types, most likely due to the events of ''[=JN090=]''.
* YankTheDogsChain: Goh wants both a Beautifly and a Dustox, so he catches three Wurmple to increase his chances of getting them. Unfortunately for him, ''all of them'' evolve into Cascoon.

[[folder:Goh's Pokémon in General]]

Unlike Ash's previous companions, Goh's goal (aside from catching Mew) is to [[GottaCatchEmAll catch as many Pokémon as possible]], frequently catching at least one new Pokémon every episode. To that end, only his Pokémon with sufficient characterization will be listed here.

!!As A Whole

Tropes that fit all Goh's captured Pokémon.

* BigEater: Greedent, Sobble, and Grookey all have unbelievable appetites.
* CastHerd: Episode 23 establishes that several of them have established their own social groups within the park; the Bug types stick with each other, the Normal and Poison types (along with Darmanitan) work together during the FeudEpisode, Water-types stick to the pond, and several small Pokémon hang out with Golurk while it rests.
* FeudEpisode: Episode 23 where hunger drives them all crazy. They were constantly [[BigBallOfViolence fighting one another]] because they accused each other of stealing food.
* AnIcePerson: His Tentacool, Dewgong and Mantyke all know Ice Beam.
* OlympusMons:
** At the end of the Darkest day arc, Goh manages to catch Eternatus but seals its Pokeball away to prevent another Darkest Day from happening.
** In ''Healing the Healer'', he manages to catch Suicune when protecting it from poachers.
* OnlySaneMan: His Farfetch'd, Pidgey, Skwovet, and Cubone when everyone else is driven mad by hunger. Then again, Skwovet ''is'' the one who caused everyone to be driven mad by hunger.
* ThePrankster: His Misdreavus and Sandile seem to fit this trope.
* RedOniBlueOni: Darmanitan's red oni to Scyther's blue oni.
* RotatingProtagonist: The Galarian Starter Pokémon Goh caught are this with Scorbunny first taking the spotlight until its evolution into Cinderace although it still makes regular appearances, Sobble then takes the spotlight until its evolution into Drizzile, which causes it to isolate itself inside a cave, which then caused Grookey to become Goh's main Walking Pokémon.
* SickeningSweethearts:
** His two Nidoran are almost always seen cuddled together and were even captured while together.
** Pinsir and Heracross almost fit this description to a tee with how Pinsir acts all romantic towards Heracross and blushes cutely towards him.
* WeatherManipulation: His Dustox all know Sunny Day, and Golurk, when it lost its chest seal, summoned a rainstorm.[[note]] Not the actual move Rain Dance, though[[/note]]

->'''Voiced in Japanese by:''' Creator/MegumiHayashibara
->'''Voiced in English by:''' Creator/CaseyMongillo

Goh's first partner Pokémon is a Scorbunny acquired during their first overseas mission to the Galar region.

* TheAce: The strongest Pokemon in Goh's team and serves as the main Pokemon he uses when in battle or during fieldwork. Makes sense seeing it was his StarterMon.
* TheArtfulDodger: Before being caught by Goh, Scorbunny was a vagabond wild Pokémon that frequently stole food from shoppers to survive. It also led some Nickit down the primrose path.
* BashBrothers: His relationship with Ash's Lucario.
* BerserkButton: Dislikes bullies and jerkass trainers who abandon their Pokémon.
* BullyHunter: In ''[=JN015=]'', it immediately picks a fight with the Mankey trio picking on Cubone.
* CerebusRetcon: The RunningGag in ''[=JN005=]'' of Scorbunny trying to get Goh's attention because it wants to join him? Hilarious. The same gag 12 episodes later when Scorbunny wants to show Goh how it's trying to learn a Fire-type move? It ends up with him, after he evolves into Raboot and his personality changed, giving Goh a cold shoulder.
* ChainedHeat: In ''[=JN048=]'' with Lucario when they end up stuck together during their fight against Team Rocket.
* CharacterDevelopment: After evolving into Raboot, it's understandably aloof and dismissive towards Goh. After seeing that its trainer does care about it, it starts expressing itself more and becomes a CoolBigBro to Sobble. It got to the point where it went back to its original personality as a Scorbunny when Raboot evolves into Cinderace.
* CripplingOverspecialization: Because Scorbunny focuses on quick, physical attacks with Quick Attack and Double Kick, it doesn't fare well against Ghost-type Pokémon which NoSell such moves as showcased in ''[=JN014=]'', and is quickly defeated by Golurk. Scorbunny seems aware of this, as it's trying to learn Fire-type moves in ''[=JN017=]'', but it comes into conflict with Goh over the matter.
* DanceBattler: In ''[=JN022=]'', it shows a love of dancing and teaches a few Hoenn Pokémon some moves.
* {{Determinator}}: After managing to not get noticed by Goh on the train and missing the stop he got off at, Scorbunny proceeds to leap from a moving train and run all the way back down the tracks to find him, to the point where it nearly got run over by ''another'' train.
** It also does ''not'' stop trying to learn Ember the traditional way. Goh has to help it adapt by using its feet and a rock to make its Ember a miniature Pyro Ball.
** During the battle against Zapdos, Raboot still manages to get up and keep fighting despite being hit hard by the Legendary. Goh understands this, and Raboot learns Blaze Kick in the process of pulling a comeback.
* {{Emo}}: After evolving into Raboot, it developed this personality complete with armfold.
* EpicFail: A fire-type Pokémon that comically couldn't handle the heat of the Desert Resort in ''[=JN014=]''.
* EurekaMoment: Has one of these when Team Rocket are taunting him and Lucario during their ChainedHeat, coming up with the idea to swing and stretch the putty to the point one of them could do a flying physical attack.
* {{Expy}}: Of Ash's Charmander. At first, Scorbunny is a friendly Fire-type who gets along with its trainer. This all goes pear-shaped in ''[=JN017=]'' when it evolves into Raboot, as its personality changed and it becomes aloof towards Goh, like Ash's Charmeleon. The main difference is that Raboot still obeys and supports Goh whereas Charmeleon didn't. It even got to the point where it got over its aloofness towards Goh when it evolved into Cinderace, as it got its personality as a Scorbunny back and completely reforged its bond with Goh, whereas Ash's Charizard still kept its aloofness towards Ash after it evolved from Charmeleon, taking several episodes to regain its loyalty to Ash.
* ExtremityExtremist: Uses its feet a lot in battle. It knows Double Kick, Blaze Kick, and uses Ember (later Pyro Ball) by kicking a stone.
* FireForgedFriends: With Goh, after helping to move the Gigantamax Snorlax in episode five. Especially noteworthy as up until that point Goh had made it his life's goal for Mew to be his first-caught Pokémon to the point of refusing to catch any others, and Scorbunny's assistance in that episode was enough for him to discard his single-target fixation. And yes, Scorbunny is a [[JustForPun Fire-type]].
* {{Forgiveness}}: Cinderace, as Scorbunny, and Goh had a fallout when it wanted to learn a Fire-type move but he believed the two moves it currently had were enough. However, through Ash's advice, Goh did teach it a Fire-type move and evolved into Raboot. Despite this, it was still upset with Goh for how he didn't consider its feelings and believed he didn't care about it. However, in ''Goodbye, Friend'', it not only realized how wrong it was into thinking that Goh didn't care about it but was also convinced to forgive him.
* FragileSpeedster: Its main tactic is to run into something very fast then kick it before they have a chance to recover. Unfortunately, this is deconstructed as shown in [=JN014=], when it's easily defeated by Golurk due to knowing ''only'' Fighting and Normal moves. It's also further deconstructed in [=JN017=] because while it wants to learn more moves like Ember, Goh's insistent that it ''stays'' a speedster.
* HandshakeSubstitute: As a Scorbunny, it often performed a variation of high fives and fist bumps with Goh, using its foot to hit Goh's fist. While it stops doing so as Raboot, its triumphant evolution into Cinderace following the reforging of its bond with Goh is followed up with it performing one of these once again.
* IShallTauntYou: Likes using the EyelidPullTaunt and smacking his own butt taunt.
* LiteralAssKicking: Poor Ash is continually on the receiving end of one. In ''[=JN017=]'', it gives it to ''Goh'' when the latter refuses to help it learn Ember.
* MundaneUtility: In ''[=JN011=]'' he uses the heat pads on his feet to rapidly melt a frozen Yamper.
* NinjaRun: How it runs after it evolves into Raboot.
* NotSoStoic: Has a few moments of this after evolving, even crying like everyone else when Sobble's scared.
* PlayingWithFire: It's a Fire-type, which ironically has yet to learn any Fire-type moves. ''[=JN017=]'' has him trying to learn Ember even though Goh dismisses its attempt. It does eventually learn it, just not in the traditional sense. Later on it learns Blaze Kick, and after it evolves into Cinderace replaces Ember with Pyro Ball.
* PutOnABus: Defied. When Goh initially decides to leave Raboot behind with its Hoenn friends, it turned out it was already on the train. This is also deconstructed because Goh never ''asked'' Raboot if it wanted to stay, something that Ash questions.
* TheQuietOne: Following its evolution into Raboot, it doesn't talk much. It regains most of its talkativeness after becoming Cinderace.
* RealMenWearPink: Cinderace appears to be more comfortable and happy with his new pink outfit in ''[=JN055=]'', unlike Ash, Goh, and Pikachu. Somewhat understandable, since the color pink is similar to the color red, which Cinderace is associated with.
* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Ash's Lucario's Blue.
* RefusalOfTheCall: Scorbunny initially resisted Goh's invitation to join him. But its Nickit buddies grabbed it and threw it onto the train car Goh and Ash boarded, essentially saying ButThouMust.
* RuleOfSymbolism: Scorbunny spent most of [=JN004=], while it was wild, covered in a film of grunge that kept the Rotom Phone from identifying it, though it has information on the species. This symbolized how it wanted to be accepted by the Nickit trio and stay where he was. When it accepted joining Goh and Ash, it cleaned off that dirt, revealing its natural coloring and learning to expand its surroundings and become himself.
* RunningGag: As a Scorbunny, it had the tendency to kick Ash in the butt, usually for no reason at all, much to Pikachu's fury.
* SpoiledByTheManual: Although a key part of the early marketing for the Generation VIII anime, Scorbunny doesn't join the cast until the fourth episode, and isn't caught by Goh until the fifth.
* TheStoic: As a Raboot, it was shown mostly frowning and aloof. It does give a tiny smile in ''[=JN022=]'', though. It sheds this personality when it evolves into Cinderace, becoming more friendly and gregarious like it was as a Scorbunny.
* SuperSenses: Being a rabbit, it has strong hearing, which allows it to sense a Pokemon's location.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Due to a combination of Goh neglecting its thoughts and feelings for so long and the general moody teen attitude of the species, Scorbunny evolving into Raboot causes it to become distant and aloof towards Goh, still following his commands in battle, but generally acting like an aggressive {{Tsundere}} otherwise.
* TookALevelInKindness: After seeing how much its trainer cares about it, Raboot evolves into Cinderace, getting its personality as a Scorbunny back, having completely reforged its bond with Goh, giving the boy a high-five with its foot and an [[CuddleBug affectionate embrace]].
* {{Tsundere}}: Its personality as a Raboot. While it's shown to be more aloof, deep down Raboot still cares for his trainer. Case in point, ''[=JN022=]'' has Raboot join with a gang of Hoenn Pokémon to teach them how to dance but returns to Goh's side at the end, even sharing an apple with its trainer [[WhenSheSmiles while hiding a tiny smile on its face]].
* UnmanlySecret: After evolving into Raboot, it doesn't like expressing emotion, and is embarrassed when it betrays a smile after reuniting with Goh in ''[=JN022=]''. It even turns away from the camera whenever Sobble forces it to cry.
* UnskilledButStrong: Much like when Ash's Pikachu transformed into its Gigantamax form in ''[=JN013=]'', in ''[=JN043=]'' Goh's Raboot undergoes a Dynamax transformation. The Pokémon is huge and powerful, but cumbersome and slow in battle, often losing its balance as it fights a Gigantamax Garbodor.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Lucario. They are always seen hanging out or battling together but ''[=JN048=]'' shows their conflicting differences in personality.
* WhatTheHellHero: Gets extremely upset at Goh when he doesn't try to help it learn Ember and telling Scorbunny to just forget about learning something new and stick with what it knows. When it evolves into Raboot, it silently walks away from Goh. Although this is partially (at least) due to its personality change as it evolved, it doesn't completely forgive Goh for his LackOfEmpathy.
* WhenSheSmiles: In the end of Episode 22, Goh sees Raboot hiding a smile after they reunite and rekindle their friendship.
* YourSizeMayVary: In-game dex entries state that Cinderace are 4'07. This one, however, is either short enough that it is at eye-level with Lucario, or Lucario in the anime in general are taller than stated, despite the fact Cinderace are nearly a ''whole foot'' taller than Lucario.

The Galar's Water-type Starter Pokémon, Goh caught it on his and Ash's second trip to Galar.
-----
* BadassInDistress: [[spoiler:Ends up captured alongside Ash's Lucario by Altenate Team Rocket and dragged into their universe.]]
* BigEater: It devours at least three plates of curry and a few croquettes.
* BornUnlucky: Despite its invisibility, it accidentally gets captured by Goh and is hit by an empty can by Jessie who both threw stuff out of frustration and didn't even know it was there.
* TheBusCameBack: Makes its return in ''[=JN078=]'' where it evolves and rejoins the team.
* CharacterDevelopment: After meeting Jaqueline's Inteleon in [=JN054=], it makes an effort to improve its battle and stealth skills.
* CowardlyLion: It's timid and a crybaby, but that doesn't mean it's ''weak''. Once it was motivated by Goh, it managed to escape the cage Team Rocket trapped it in and run away to safety.
* EmotionBomb: True to its species, whenever Sobble starts crying, it causes other Pokémon and even humans to cry as loudly and [[OcularGushers excessively wet]] as well.
* HitAndRunTactics: Eventually develops this style of battling, culminating in learning an actual hit and run attack in U-turn.
* IneffectualLoner: After evolving, Drizzile retreats into a burrow away from everyone else. Goh realizes it needs space to accept its new form, so he lets it be after they come to an understanding.
* {{Invisibility}}: It can do this if it gets water splashed on it, perfectly blending into its environment. It can be foiled if sand or similar projectiles get thrown onto it though. After evolving, it can do this at will (though water can still trigger it as normal).
* MakeAWish: Drizzile spent its nighttime looking at the stars for its wish to eventually evolve into Inteleon.
* MakingASplash: It's a Water-type.
* NotQuiteFlight: As Inteleon, it can use its membrane as a makeshift hanglider to fly short distances or slow a fall.
* OcularGushers: Induces this in other people and Pokémon once it starts crying, whether it be from being scared or just TearsOfJoy.
* PeekABangs: Gains them as Drizzile, adding to its loner front.
* ProneToTears: True to its species, Sobble tends to cry a lot, to the point where it can make other beings around it cry as well.
* PutOnTheBus: Due to being depressed by the fact it didn't immediately evolve into Inteleon, it decided to isolate itself in a cave and take a break in travelling until it feels better.
* ShrinkingViolet: It shies away from other people and Pokémon and when cornered, it starts to cry. Loudly.
* TearsOfRemorse: When Drizzile sees Goh willing to take a hit in its place, it realizes how much it's taken its trainer for granted during this stage and starts crying.
* TookALevelInBadass: Learns U-turn in [=JN054=], along with improving its stealth to the point it finally manages to get revenge on Darmanitan at the end of the episode.
** Right before evolving, it shows how much it's been training and gaining confidence by sniping small objects with Water Gun.
** During its battle against Kecleon in [=JN078=], Drizzile finally evolves into Inteleon and learns Snipe Shot.
* TookALevelInCynic: Upon evolving into Drizzile, it becomes a lot more moody and distances itself from everyone else in the institute, including towards Goh.
* WhenHeSmiles: After evolving, Drizzile sports a gentle smile while wiping away some of Goh's tears.

The Galar's Grass-type Starter Pokémon, Goh caught it when it snuck into the Cerise Institute.
-----
* BigBrotherMentor: Serves as one to Goh's White Flower Flabebe while they are looking for a new flower for it. It's possibly the most saddened when it's time for Flabebe to go but still gives it a warm goodbye.
* BigEater: It manages to scarf down its food very quickly and then attempted to steal Pikachu's food.
* CompanionCube: Grookey's stick serves as this for it. It becomes truly saddened when it's separated from said stick courtesy of Team Rocket.
* ADayInTheLimelight: While it has a few episodes that give him more focus, [=JN101=] gives it the most spotlight when it's helping a one stick Thwakey build his confidence so he can play with the others in his group.
* {{Determinator}}: In [=JN069=], it uses all ounces of its strength to get itself back to Goh. The Pokémon is shedding TearsOfJoy when back in his arms.
* GreenThumb: A grass type. Also manages to make a field of flowers bloom just by beating the bricks near them like a drum.
* HeavySleeper: Falls asleep once it's used up all its energy.
* HeelFaceTurn: Was intended to be Jessie's Pokemon from the Rocket Prize Master but it chose to break her ball instead and become Goh's Pokemon. This is shown when both Goh and Jessie throw balls at it, with Grookey smacking Jessie's back at her and allowing Goh's to capture it.
* IChooseToStay: Before Goh can release it to live with a family of Grookey, Thrakey and Rillaboom, it jumps on his head and decides to stay with him.
* KidAppealCharacter: Being the most childish out of Goh's Pokemon and out of all the characters in the season.
* MischiefMakingMonkey: When it's full of energy, it is always causing trouble somewhere for someone. Mimey seems to be the only one immune to its slapstick.
* NoSell: The only Pokemon to not be affected by Vileplume's Sleep Powder in episode 76.
* RunningGag: Its habit of jumping on people and Pokemon to beat their heads like a drum, especially Goh.
* SecurityCling: Does this to Goh whenever it falls asleep.
* TheReveal: It is revealed that Grookey was a Rocket Prize Master Pokemon that managed to escape.

Scizor and Pinsir have their own entries below.

* AllWebbedUp: Happens to Ash after they return to the Cerise Institute.
* BigBrotherInstinct: When Caterpie and Weedle are approached by Grimer for potentially stealing food in ''[=JN023=]'', Parasect steps in to defend them.
* BigCreepyCrawlies: They're all bugs so this is a given.
* CuddleBug: They were very affectionate during the short time of living in Ash and Goh's room. And yes, they're all bugs.
* {{Flight}}: Butterfree, Scyther, Beedrill, and Venomoth, the former two being [[BlowYouAway Flying-types]].
* HairTriggerTemper: Beedrill, naturally for the species. It attacks Ash and Goh when released from its Poké Ball in ''[=JN014=]'' and is one of the main instigators in ''[=JN023=]'' when the Pokémon's food gets stolen.
* MadeOfIron: Metapod, who survives being accidentally kicked into a rock by Scorbunny with no damage.
* MundaneUtility: Caterpie''s string shot is generally used to create ropes so the group can swing or ascent/descend to certain areas.
* ProjectileWebbing: Caterpie knows String Shot, and in ''[=JN046=]'' it uses it to [[MundaneUtility create a zip line for Ash and Goh to cross a boggy river]].

->'''Voiced in English by:''' Sam Black

The last of the Kanto Bug types caught by Goh in ''[=JN006=]'' which serves as one of his main battlers. It evolves into Scizor in ''[=JN056=]''.

* AmbiguousGender: In the Spanish dubs, Scyther is referred to as male, but still hasn't had its gender confirmed anywhere else yet.
* BloodKnight: Scyther enjoys battling and is often seen training. It approached Goh to join the Battle Frontier in ''[=JN007=]''. In ''[=JN056=]'', when told they were going to see Elite Four member Wikstrom for possible training, Scyther dashed to Goh, practically begging him to take him with.
* CharacterTics: Scyther constantly swings both arms forward and back over its head whenever left to its own devices, as if perfoming sword training with its scythes.
* TheDreaded: As a Scyther, it could slice trees in half with Air Slash. None of the other Pokémon, including ''[[ElementalRockPaperScissors Darmanitan]]'' want to mess with it.
* ExtraOreDinary: When it evolves into Scizor, it becomes a Steel-Type.
* {{Flight}}: Being part [[BlowYouAway Flying-type]] as a Scyther.
* TheLeader: Being the strongest of Goh's Bug-types, it protects the others from Darmanitan's Overheat and leads the attack against it in ''[=JN023=]''.
* StatusBuff: Scyther knows Swords Dance.
* WakeUpCallBoss: After catching every other Bug-type with little effort, Scyther is the first Pokémon to teach Goh that you need to weaken a strong Pokémon to catch them.
* TheWorfEffect: Despite Scyther being the strongest of Goh's Kanto bugs and being TheDreaded among them, Hodge's Mightyena makes ''hilariously'' short work of it.

* AmbiguousGender: Pinsir's gender is not specificed in its first appearances, but it's later averted with Pinsir having a crush on a male Heracross, implying Pinsir is female, which is confirmed by Goh in the preview for ''[=JN094=]''.
* BerserkButton: Whatever you do, leave Heracross alone unless you want to experience her bad side.
* BettyAndVeronica: She serves as the Betty to Lilligant's Veronica for Heracross's Archie. Of course Pinsir is the winner.
* CharacterisationMarchesOn: In her first appearance, Pinsir looked like a fierce battler who managed to trap Ash and Pikachu, but later turns out to be a rather shy Pokémon who dislikes battling. It's likely Pinsir only attacked Ash and Pikachu to escape.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Pinsir is the focus of ''[=JN094=]'' after she deals with a broken heart after catching Pinsir with Goh's newly caught Lilligent so he takes her to Erika's flower arranging class to rebuild her confidence to win him back.
* HatesBeingTouched: Goh's Pinsir gets very uncomfortable when Kylie tries to cuddle her, to the point she throws her off.
* GentleGiant: [[{{Irony}} Ironically]] for her species, Pinsir is this. Despite attacking Ash in their first encounter, she's a pacifist who doesn't like to battle and is often seen in the Cerise Institute with [[FriendToAllChildren Caterpie and Weedle]] and picking flowers.
* FaceOfAThug: Being a Pinsir, Pinsir looks aggressive, despite being timid and preferring to pick flowers rather than participate in battles.
* IMeantToDoThat: Goh only caught Pinsir so easily because when she attacked him, he accidentally threw a Poké Ball among the rocks and sticks he used to protect himself.
* NonActionGuy: Pinsir doesn't participate in battles because she doesn't like fighting, being more content with staying in the institute and picking flowers.
* RescueRomance: Pinsir develops an obvious crush on Heracross when he saves her life, though Heracross seems to be oblivious.
* TookALevelInBadass: Just when Heracross is about to be taken out by Lurantis's Solar Beam, she jumps in front and takes the full hit and manages to get back up with little damage. She then prepares to battle for the first time and takes out Team Rocket in just one move.
* WomanScorned: A somewhat downplayed example where after she catches Heracross cheating on her with Lilligant, she becomes greatly depressed and views Lilligant as her rival for his heart. Goh has to help her rebuild her confidence so she can win Heracross back.

!!Dewgong (Jugon)

Goh's first Ice Type Pokémon he caught in ''[=JN010=]'' to use to ferry him and Ash to Dragonite Island.
-----
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Is this towards a wild Gorebyss it meets in ''[=JN063=]'', only to be rejected for a Huntail.
* BreakingOldTrends: Up until ''[=JN010=]'', Goh was seen catching Pokémon with ease. Dewgong on the other hand was the first Pokémon that Goh struggled immensely to catch to the point that he actually ran out of Pokéballs.
* TheDeterminator: In ''[=JN063=]'', it's determined to win Gorebyss's heart by challenging a rival Huntail. It however doesn't end in his favor.
* HopelessSuitor: Seems to have trouble attracting Pokémon of the opposite gender.
* AnIcePerson: Goh's first Ice Type and it knows Ice Beam.
* MakingASplash: A part Water Type.
* SkewedPriorities:
** While ferrying Ash and Goh to Dragonite Island, it becomes attracted to another Dewgong and begins chasing after it, despite Goh's protests.
** It's more determined on fighting Huntail to win Gorebyss's heart than finish the Marine Obstacle Course. Chloe and Eevee have to stop it and Goh calls it out for its misbehavior at the end.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Its determination to fight the wild Huntail causes it to get so angry that it also goes after Chloe and Eevee, eventually causing it to trap the three of them in a cave and start attacking it. This almost causes it to cave in on the three of them until Ash, Goh and Kairi fought Huntail off to rescue them.

!!Farfetch'd
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gohsfarfetchd.jpg]]
->'''Voiced in Japanese by:''' Yūji Ueda
->'''Voiced in English by:''' Marc Thompson

In ''[=JN020=]'', Farfetch'd was one of the many Kanto Pokémon that Goh caught during the Cerise Laboratory's Pokémon Orienteering competition. Farfetch'd tends to be one of the more visible Pokémon that supports Goh on some of on his adventures.

* AbsurdCuttingPower: Shown to have learned Cut by ''[=JN032=]'' where it's seen cutting away at the vegetation of Ilex Forest.
* CarryABigStick: Like all Farfetch'd, it carries around a leek that it uses for battle. Goh originally had a rough time catching it due to Farfetch'd using its leek to deflect Pokéballs away.
* CastingAShadow: Revealed to know Night Slash in ''[=JN027=]''.
* DoppelgangerSpin: Revealed to know Double Team in ''[=JN030=]''.
* OnlySaneMan: During the FeudEpisode, Farfetch'd was one of the few amongst Goh's Pokémon that didn't go driven mad by hunger.
* TheRival: Has a bit of a rivalry with the Galarian Farfetch'd that was caught by Ash. They've even been seen to bicker, and clash their leeks.
* ShoutOut: Farfetch'd showing off Cut within Ilex Forest makes for a pretty obvious reference to the game event from ''VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver''.

!!Magikarp (Koiking)
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/goh_magikarp_5.png]]
In ''[=JN024=]'', Professor Cerise sent Ash and Goh to the Sinnoh Resort Area to investigate a mysterious Pokémon called "The Lord". Said Pokémon is a giant Magikarp, caught by Goh with the help of Ash and Team Rocket.

* TheCatfish: Known as "The Lord". When Ash and Goh arrive at the Resort Area, there are already several other fishers there trying to catch it.
* CursedWithAwesome: Even with the MythologyGag below. Its Splash does a decent amount of damage to high-level Rocket members with the fish being large and having an amazing jumping ability.
* DisneyDeath: During the Magikarp High Jump Tournament, when it jumps high enough to reach space. Ash even reads a eulogy in memory of all the good times they had together. [[spoiler: It returns by the end of the second half of the episode.]]
* InASingleBound: Its jumping ability is incredible, able to break the glass ceiling of the Cerise Laboratory.
** Taken ''WAY'' UpToEleven in ''[=JN026=]'', where after rigorous training its jump can ''break orbit''.
* LethalJokeCharacter: Given its massive size, its Splash is more than capable of holding off even high-level Team Rocket members.
* MythologyGag: Its appearance at the Resort Area in Sinnoh is a reference to the Magikarp that can be caught there up to ''Level 100''.
** The training methods and competition it participates in during ''[=JN026=]'' reference the ''VideoGame/PokemonMagikarpJump'' mobile game.
* PowerLimiter: It's revealed in the finals of the Magikarp High Jump Tournament that Magikarp was wearing weights throughout the tournament. The weights are so heavy that ''two Machamp'' struggle to carry them.
* SecondarySexualCharacteristics: Magikarp has got Yellow Whiskers, indicating that it's a male.
* ShockwaveStomp: Uses its Splash to this effect.
* TrainingMontage: Goes through one in ''[=JN026=]'' to lose weight and get ready for the Magikarp High Jump Tournament.
* WeightWoe: The first half of ''[=JN026=]'' shows it's put on a lot of weight at the Cerise Institute.

* CombatMedic: Her knowledge in healing berry foraging can equate her to this.
* DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength: After evolving to Raichu, she tries to hug Pikachu and accidentally body checks him instead.
* NiceGirl: While the first few Pikachu in the forest outright refused to be caught, this Pikachu immediately offered a Pecha Berry to Goh when he got smacked in the face with a Poke Ball. She later brings a clump of berries in her tail to the Institute to share them with Pokemon and people alike.
* ShockAndAwe: She's an Electric-type.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Has the flat-tipped tail of female Raichu and as a Pikachu, had the heart-shaped tail notch.

* BlowYouAway: Its roars are usually accompanied by a strong gust.
* BreakingOldTrends: Quite shockingly, Suicune is the first Legendary Pokémon to be caught by one of Ash's travelling companions, ''and kept'' as Eternatus had to be [[TooAwesomeToUse sealed away]]. The [[Characters/PokemonTheSeriesAshAndPikachu main character himself]] has befriended many, but never caught one to date.
* ButNowIMustGo: While still being Goh's Pokémon, it leaves the Cerise Institute at the end of the episode and returns to roaming the world.

* DefrostingIceQueen: Even though it was rescued from poachers who would have forced it to be used for their own means, it doesn't take lightly to that meaning being captured in a Poké Ball. It lightens up after Goh heals it from its poison and injuries and gives the Pokémon it protected some food.
* IChooseToStay: At the end when Goh puts its ball down to release it, Suicune touches the Pokeball with its nose, allowing it to be sent back in and remain his Pokémon.
* MakingASplash: A Water-type that knows Hydro Pump.
* WorfHadTheFlu: Considering the fact that the poachers poisoned the lake to lure it, it is highly implied that they defeated the Legendary Pokémon through ambushing it, which weakened it enough for Goh to catch it.

->'''Voiced in English by:''' TBD

Goh's second capture in the Unova region. It was one of the Pokémon guarding the Ruins of the Titan but was swiftly caught by Goh just as it sprung to life and attacked.
----
* TheGadfly: [=JN017=] has it go up to Scorbunny and use Overheat, simply to provoke the bunny into using a Fire-type move. When it sees that Scorbunny can't muster anything but a spark, Darmanitan spends the rest of its screentime mocking Scorbunny and laughing at it.
* LaserGuidedKarma: For all its scaring of Sobble in [=JN054=], it gets a stealthy Water Gun surprise while it's relaxing at the end of the episode.
* PlayingWithFire: Is a Fire-type. It also knows Overheat and seems to enjoy using it.

* SlasherSmile: And it never stops grinning.
* SmugSuper: It very much embraces his superiority over Scorbunny.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Mocking Scorbunny over how the bunny can't use Fire-type moves causes Scorbunny to try and learn Ember.

* OneHitKO: During the Raid Battle, it's able to knock out every Pokémon in one hit, including ''Pikachu''.
* PowerLimiter: The seal on Golurk's chest keeps it from losing control. When it breaks off in ''[=JN023=]'', it has the power to flood the Cerise Institute.
* TransformingMecha: Can transform into a cannon to launch an extremely powerful attack, though it's beaten by Ash's Dragonite and Goh's Darmanitan before it gets the chance to fire it.

----
* BigEater: Makes its debut by jumping onto the table and scoffing Ash's scones before becoming captured. This also becomes a plot point in ''[=JN023=]'' as it's the reason the entire situation with the disappearing food happened in the first place. Goh enters it into an eating contest in ''[=JN047=]'' which it wins.
* BulletSeed: Has this as one of its attacks. Goh has Skwovet use the attack to spit out excess seeds while it devours berries during the eating contest.

* KarmaHoudini: Skwovet gets away with not only stealing the food, but for causing drama between the rest of Goh’s Pokémon.

* HappilyMarried: Is married to Talia.
* ItAmusedMe: He knew all along about the Gengar haunting the laboratory but thought that the poltergeist activity would be lots of fun. Then again it's a complete contrast to when Gengar arrived in ''[=JN011=]'' and his daughter was the only thing stopping Gengar from doing more harm...
* OnlySaneMan: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] during the eating contest where he contrasts with Chrysa's fanaticism.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: In [=JN010=], he decides to keep Dragonite Island a secret as he feels their mystery is part of their appeal, despite Ren and Chrysa suggesting otherwise.

* SmallRoleBigImpact:
** In regards to getting his daughter the motivation she needs to get into Pokémon. When she becomes unsure as to whether or not to help Jinny get ready for the Slateport Water Festival, he tells her that sometimes a little effort is all that matters and thus gets her moving forward to try something new.
** In ''[=JN074=]'' his advice about how the bonds of Pokémon and humans can open up to new things is what convinces Chloe to approach Cresselia so she and Dawn can heal her.
* ThemeNaming: Cerise is French for "cherry", so he's named for the cherry tree in the dub. Likewise, he's named for the cherry blossom (Sakura) in Japanese.

Chloe is Professor Cerise's daughter and a childhood friend of Goh. It was at her behest that Goh went to Professor Oak's summer camp when they were younger. She, too, witnessed Mew, and now helps her father with his research.
----
* AdvertisedExtra: She's considered the {{Tritagonist}} of the series but the number of episodes that actually have her as the focus character in the first season can literally be counted one hand.
* AlliterativeName: In the dub, '''C'''hloe '''C'''erise.
* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Barring the dark hair, she is shown to be quite cold or distant to, well, ''everyone'' except her mother. She gradually warms up as the series goes on.
* AscendedExtra: By episode 50, she participates in more of Ash and Goh's journeys as she starts ascending into a 3rd travelling companion in the series. The 3rd introduction series also features more of her alongside Ash and Goh.

* BigSisterWorship: As shown in ''[=JN058=]'', she is shown to really admire and look up to Chrysa, to the point of deciding to stay with her in her apartment.
* BlackSheep: Played with in that she isn't actively treated as such. Everyone in her family loves Pokémon, whereas she prefers to stay away from them. She's starting to grow out of it in ''[=JN029=]'' upon realizing how she was shown to be quite cold to Yamper in the past.
* BreakingOldTrends: Chloe isn't eager to get into a life with Pokémon, is more introverted, goes to a human school and (initially) wants little to do with Ash Ketchum himself. And, on a lesser note, she's a CanonForeigner not based on anyone from the games.
* CharacterDevelopment: She gradually begins warming up to Pokemon and becoming more involved with them, becomes less aloof, more willing to try new things and has become more comfortable around Ash, acting less snarky towards both him and Goh. By ''[=JN049=]'', she officially becomes a Pokémon trainer with her own starter and Rotom Phone, along with not feeling so down about people pressuring her into being so into Pokémon.
* CherryBlossomGirl: Her last name can be either "cherry blossom" (Japanese) or "cherry" (Dub) and when she's not in her uniform she frequently wears pink. Her swimsuit also has cherry blossoms on it. Starting with ''[=JN050=]'', she wears a pink blouse with cherry blossoms on it.
* ChildhoodFriends: With Goh to the point of being Goh's OnlyFriend. (Or perhaps it's the other way around) Yet despite this, they don't have a meaningful conversation until Episode 49.
* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: Chloe is shown to hold aspects opposite of Ash's previous female companions.
** A white-dress wearing girl who has a complicated relationship with Pokémon? It's Lillie all over again. The main difference is that Lillie actually ''does'' like Pokémon (and couldn't touch them due to a traumatic experience) whereas Chloe is neither a lover nor a hater. Lillie went to a school all about Pokémon and had a lot of friends supporting her goals, whereas Chloe goes to a normal school and has classmates InnocentlyInsensitive about her ''not'' being immediately willing to jump into a career related to Pokémon. Their relationships with their mothers are also different: Chloe is closest to her mom (who gives her good advice) whereas Lillie and Lusamine's relationship was very fractured (due to Lusamine's [[WackyParentSeriousChild parent dynamic]] with her daughter). Last, their interactions with their Pokémon are quite opposites: she's cold towards her Yamper and is hesitant to command it to battle (although she's getting better at it), while Lillie truly loves Snowy and is quick to get Snowy to fire Powder Snow so they can get to safety.
** She's a contrast to Serena when it comes to what they want to do in life. Serena was impulsive and wanted nothing to do with being a Rhyhorn racer like her mother and left with Ash to escape it. When she finally confronts her mother to be a performer, she is supported by Ash, Clemont and Bonnie in that regard. Chloe on the other hand is pushed by everyone ''else'' to follow a career involving Pokémon but she's very lethargic and doesn't even know if she even ''likes'' Pokémon or not while her mother advises her not to rush into her future so quickly. Also while Serena tried multiple hobbies before deciding on being a performer, Chloe (at first) doesn't even try to do ''anything'' at all and the audience doesn't even know what she likes. And in regards to Ash, Serena was well-known for her crush on him whereas Chloe appears to be purposely avoiding interacting with him at the start.
** Chloe isn't the only female supporting character who has a little brother interested in Pokémon, a stay at home mom or a father who has an important job -- May has that too. But while May didn't like Pokémon initially, she still was excited to travel and explore while Chloe doesn't want to travel at all. May was never pushed to follow her father's role (and she had support from her parents for wanting to become a Pokémon Coordinator) while Chloe gets pressured by everyone (except her mother) to walk in her father's footsteps.
** Chloe's relationship with Ash is a bit different than Iris. While Iris was known to tease and poke Ash for being "Such a kid" (but she would mellow down about it later), Chloe would rather ''not'' be near Ash at all (at first). Also, Chloe goes to a human school and she's known to have InnocentlyInsensitive classmates and she has trouble speaking up for herself whereas Iris's time at a human school had other students stay far away from her due to her NoSocialSkills.
** When compared to Dawn, Dawn was bubbly and optimistic and already had a goal in mind whereas Chloe is introverted and has...nothing in mind (initially). When Dawn was in a funk, her mom would tell her that she needed to stop feeling sorry for herself and learn to grow while Talia just gently reassures Chloe not to rush into things. Dawn was sweet and kind to her core whereas Chloe snarks to everyone she can (except her mom).
* CostumeEvolution: To signify her becoming a Pokémon trainer and officially joining Ash and Goh, she ditches her school uniform for a more adventurous getup with a pink blouse, yellow jacket and jeans.
* DamselInDistress:
** Spends most of ''[=JN050=]'' as this, getting into trouble and having either Goh, Ash or Eevee saving her skin. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] as she lacks experience or drive toward battling unlike the other two.
** This is especially played straight in ''[=JN079=]'' when she gets kidnapped by Katsuki (mistaking her for another girl) and has to be rescued by Ash, Goh and Eevee.
* ADayInTheLimelight: ''Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!'', ''There's a New Kid in Town!'', and ''The Cuteness Quotient!'' puts her in the spotlight in place of Ash and Goh, with ''[=JN038=]'' giving her a fair amount of focus as well. ''[=JN049=]'' shows her officially becoming a Pokémon Trainer. ''[=JN074=]'' has her set off on her first solo journey, meeting Dawn in the process.
* DeadpanSnarker: Chloe has demonstrated a notably snarky attitude, as she is always seen making snarks or scoffs in regards to Ash and Goh, and even her own father. She does become less snarky towards them in later episodes, though it shows up again when she gets annoyed at Dawn.
* DeathGlare: Gives a ''terrifying'' one to a couple of girls who mock Jinny's Feebas, complete with Mimikyu's GlowingEyesOfDoom and a fiery aura. They even ''felt'' it!
* DefrostingIceQueen: She starts out quite icy, but gradually mellows out as the episodes go by, and has even started to interact with Ash slightly more as well, along with gaining a growing interest in Pokémon.
* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Her focus episode of ''[=JN011=]'' has her questioning what she wants to do; her classmates -- and teacher -- push her to have a career in Pokémon because her father is a professor even though she doesn't hate Pokémon but she's not a big lover of them either. Her mom advises her that she needs to find something that gives her joy and that she doesn't have to rush things yet. As time goes on, she becomes more interested in Pokémon; although she confides to Goh in ''[=JN049=]'' that she's still hesitant on actually catching any Pokémon (as she doesn't want to be pressured into it by other people), she ultimately decides to catch Eevee at the end of the episode (resulting in her officially becoming a Trainer and receiving a Rotom Phone) and resolves to take it one step at a time with her new partner.
** The 4th opening implies that Chloe might become a Pokemon Coordinator. ''[=JN105=]'' has her actually try out in a Contest with Lisia and Serena.
* DislikesTheNewGuy: Chloe initially has a very frosty relationship with Ash, compared to Goh (who is quick to declare Ash his friend), her father (who makes him and Goh his research fellows), Ren, and Chrysa. She would often ignore him or make an occasional snarky remark in regards to him, and whenever he tried to speak with her, she would generally freeze up. Over time, she became more comfortable around Ash and seems to have fully accepted him as a friend by [=JN038=].
* TheDitherer: Chloe is indecisive to the point where she can't decide whether or not she even likes Pokémon, not helping that she keeps refusing Ash's invitations to join him and Goh, seeming uninterested in trying out new things. Future episodes show her starting to open up to Pokémon and she gets her official starter in ''[=JN049=]''.
* TheDragAlong: Quite literally in episode 38. When Ash and Goh go to collect fossils, they grab and drag her with them twice. Though it turned out for the better since she ends up having a good time.
* {{Expy}}: Chloe shares a majority of Sonia's characterization and traits (from the games), despite the fact Sonia is also a character in the anime, to the point it looks like she's meant to be a younger (but [[DeadpanSnarker snarkier]]) Sonia living with the boys at Vermillion City:
** Chloe is [[DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife indecisive about her future and can't find the motivation to do anything until she slowly begins to see the worth and enthusiasm in the fantastic creatures in the world, just as how Sonia was constantly drifting in trying to find out her purpose in life.]]
** Chloe has a relative who is a professor, just like Sonia and her grandmother Prof. Magnolia.
** Chloe (or her family) owns a Yamper that likes her, just like Sonia, though she has no Yamper in this iteration.
** Chloe's early childhood was about dealing with Goh's passion for Pokémon, just like how Sonia dealt with Leon's passion for Pokémon in their childhood, albeit with battles. Both Goh and Leon even have similar appearances. The same could be said between her and Ash.
* FatalFlaw: As shown in ''[=JN011=]'' her flaws are indecisiveness and inability to move forward. She doesn't know what she wants to do with her life and debates on whether she even likes Pokémon or not. She also hides away from other people, doesn't express her true feelings nor does she open herself up to new things. Other episodes show her refusing any type of interactions outside her comfort zone; whenever Ash invites her to join him and Goh, she immediately shoots them down. As of ''[=JN031=]'', she seems to be overcoming this, after her father explains to her that the only way to succeed is to try.
** She's also shown to be conscious about herself and is afraid of being belittled or laughed at because she isn't as enthusiastic about Pokémon as most people. She probably keeps saying "No" to Ash because she doesn't want to embarrass herself. Once again, she slowly grows out of it and becomes more confident in herself.
* FireForgedFriends: Her relationship with Ash is this. She didn't trust him at all when she first met him and was jealous of his friendship with Goh. As the series progresses, she starts to warm up to him and by ''[=JN038=]'', the two of them have formed a genuine friendship.
* FlowerMotif: Her family has a flower theme naming, she ties her braid with a flower scrunchie, and she was shown watering plants in the school garden. Her outfit starting in ''[=JN050=]'' includes a cherry blossom and flower petals on her blouse, while her solo traveling outfit in the Darkrai/Cresselia two-parter has a flower design on the end of her pants. Part of her hair's highlights are also in the shape of a flower.
* {{Foil}}:
** With Goh. She wears white with blue accents, he wears grey with red. She's not interested in Pokémon and has no idea what she plans to do for her future while Goh goes on ahead with his goal to capture Mew. Chloe has a frosty relationship with Ash to the point of indifference but Goh immediately calls Ash his best friend. Also while one of Goh's flaws is that he gives up on new things after they go wrong, Chloe's is that she doesn't even ''try'' new things at all and would rather stay stationary than take a step forward. Goh's FatalFlaw stems from shunting off from human connections (as shown in ''[=JN032=]'') while Chloe is more about opening herself to the relationships between humans and Pokemon.
** Chloe is also a foil to Ash: aside from the fact that their first Pokémon is an Electric type, Chloe acts frosty towards Yamper (who is treated more like a pet than a friend) while Ash and Pikachu are best friends. Chloe is shy and withdrawn and doesn't know what to do with her life to the point of never really moving or trying new things (and she doesn't know if she even wants a job revolving around Pokémon) while Ash's goal is to battle Leon again and likes seeing new places and interacting with Pokémon. Chloe also is hesitant to command Yamper to fight whereas Pikachu is ready to go at a moment's notice.
* GreenEyedMonster:
** Implied to be why she acts frosty to Ash. Considering she was pretty much Goh's only friend growing up, she probably sees Ash as a threat to their friendship because of the two being so alike or because they already have goals in mind while she doesn't. Bonus points for having green eyes as well. Thankfully, she seems to have finally warmed up to Ash and became friends with him as of ''[=JN038=]'', where she has no problem with speaking to and hanging out with him.
** She was also jealous of Yamper when she was younger, due to thinking that he would steal away her parents' attention.
* HatesBeingTouched: In ''[=JN020=]'', Chloe screams in terror when Goh's Nidoran (Male and Female) cuddle her and a Pidgey perches on her shoulder. She appears to be getting over this as of ''[=JN029=]'', letting a Pidove her family was taking care of perch on her shoulder without issue, though she still shows some hesistance toward wild Pokemon.
* HiddenDepths:
** ''[=JN011=]'' has Goh mention that Chloe wasn't so cold towards Pokémon in the past, hinting that something must've happened that caused her viewpoint to become jaded. It's implied that she's jealous of them, given how she hated Yamper for always taking everyone else's attention.
** In ''[=JN052=]'', she comes up with an elaborate plan to catch a group of Diglett and their Dugtrio leader that were ravaging Laxton's crops.
* IdenticalStranger: In ''[=JN079=]'', she meets a girl called Soleil who looks very similar to her. This becomes a plot point where they decide to swap clothes which causes her to end up being mistaken for Soleil and kidnapped.
* IHatePastMe: Flashbacks of ''[=JN029=]'' reveal that Chloe was always jealous of Yamper as a child. In the present, she's more than a little shocked when she realizes how much of a jerk she was back then.
* InformedAttribute: It's stated that she helps her father with his research but aside from ''[=JN031=]'' she hasn't been seen actually ''helping'' him with anything that involves research at all. This is set to change starting in ''[=JN050=]'' as she finally starts joining Ash and Goh on research.
* IronicName: Her name is based on "Spring" (Japanese) and "Blooming" (Dub) but she doesn't act all that lively, does she? She does start living up to her name over time, though.
* {{Irony}}:
** Doesn't know what to do in life or what interests she likes, yet we see time and time again that she ''refuses'' to try things whenever Ash gives her the chance. She gets better, though.
** She's also the only one that Yamper will take food or commands from, even though she’s the least enthusiastic about Pokémon in her family.
* JerkassRealization: Chloe distanced herself from befriending Pokémon and treated the family Yamper with coldness. Although she did come to respect him during the events of ''Best Friend... Worst Nightmare!'', Chloe still kept her distance around Yamper and other Pokémon. However, in ''There's a New Kid in Town!'', Chloe realized how she badly treated Yamper, after hearing how jealous she was during her childhood and remembering that he rescued her from a group of Venonat. Since then, Chloe has grown closer to Yamper and opened herself back up into befriending and loving Pokémon again.
* LettingHerHairDown: As shown in Episode 38 when in her pajamas.
* [[LikeFatherUnlikeSon Like Father Unlike Daughter]]: Despite her dad working as a Pokemon Professor, Chloe has little interest initially in the field, though she slowly grows out of her indifference and eventually gets her own starter and a Rotom Phone.
* LimitedWardrobe: Averted. Chloe has several outfits outside of her school uniform (a striped shirt and yellow pants with suspenders, a beige hat/white blouse/blue pants ensemble, a white shirt and pink overall dress, and a pink blouse/yellow jacket/light blue jeans/pink sneakers.)
* MessyHair: Is shown to have incredibly messy hair upon waking up and requires a fair bit of tune-up for it to resemble her usual style. She is quite embarrassed about this as shown when she reads a magazine and finds her mom drew an illustration of her with said bed head. When Dawn witnesses this firsthand, she immediately gets [[MundaneUtility the Piplup conditioner treatment]].
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: In ''There's a New Kid in Town!'' as a young girl, she got angry at Yamper stealing everyone's attention so she wished for him to go away. She soon realized her mistake and went out to find him again, was menaced by three Venonat in a dark playground, and burst into tears as they approached, but then Yamper came out and shooed them away.
* NoLastNameGiven: [[AvertedTrope Averted]]. Notably, she's a rare CanonForeigner made for the anime with an actual last name.
* NoodleIncident: She was not so indifferent to Pokémon in the past, implying that something caused her to act the way she is today. It may or may not have to do with being jealous of Yamper.
* OnlyFriend: To Goh before Ash entered the scene.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: In [=JN011=], when her mother states that she won't get up early to brush her hair...she jumps up and starts yelling frantically showing a rare loss of composure. She even blushes cutely when her mother laughs at the trick used to make her get up.
* OutOfFocus: Is considered the tritagonist of this series, but she doesn't even join Ash and Goh in their adventures (because she goes to school and she constantly shoots down any attempt to join them) nor get a focus episode until ''[=JN011=]'' and even then she's sidelined for Ash and Goh's travels. She starts coming out of this by ''[=JN029=]'' (her ''second'' focus episode), as she's getting some focus again before fading into the background after one minor focus episode in ''[=JN038=]''. By ''[=JN049=]'', she becomes a Pokémon Trainer and gets more character development.
* PinkIsFeminine: She has a ''lot'' of pink on her, fitting her cherry blossom theme. She sleeps in a pink nightgown, her clothes outside her school uniform are pink, and a flashback of her as a child has her a pink dress. Her cellphone, and later Rotom Phone, are also pink. In ''[=JN050=]'', she gains a pink blouse and matching pink shoes. In the 4th outfit, she wears a pink fancy outfit, implying she'll become a Pokemon Coordinator.
* SchoolUniformsAreTheNewBlack: Wears her school's uniform as her main apparel due to her appearances occurring after school, though the design is rather stylized allowing her to stand out. It's notable that her focus episodes starting from ''[=JN029=]'' have her wearing something else other than the uniform to symbolize her CharacterDevelopment and to find a life outside of school.
* ShipperOnDeck: Seems to be this for Chrysa and her friend when she learns a lot about them. Sadly it doesn't work in her favor when she reunites them.
* ShrinkingViolet: Hinted at. While she is comfortable around Goh and some of her school friends, she seems to freeze up when Ash tries to talk to her or when he asks her to join him and Goh. She also is not present during the opening ceremony of her father's research institute where there is a crowd of people. ''[=JN011=]'' expands that it's not people she's uncomfortable with, it's the notion that everyone assumes that she's going to become a Pokémon professor like her father or that she actually likes Pokémon and being that good of a fighter. She gradually grows out of it and in ''[=JN049=]'', she officially becomes a Pokémon Trainer.
* SignificantWardrobeShift: Starting in ''[=JN029=]'', she wears something other than her school uniform to symbolize how she isn't tied to her being a student. ''[=JN050=]'' gives her a pink blouse, jeans and yellow shoes to signify that she's now a Pokémon Trainer.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: She clearly gets her looks from her mother.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Her focus episodes show that she can be very sweet when she wants to, despite being aloof by default. She later becomes more sweet than frosty.
* SymbolMotifClothing: Her school uniform has anchors on it which represent how she's very stationary with her life and doesn't really try to open up her surroundings. Fittingly she lives in Vermillion City, home of the S.S. Anne which states how she's stuck in her comfort zone and refuses to grow or go on an adventure. Starting with ''[=JN050=]'', she wears a pink shirt with cherry blossoms on it, both befitting her namesake and that she's on the path to blossoming and discovering who she truly wants to be.
* ThemeNaming: In the English version, following her father's name, "Chloe" means "blossoming" (or "fertility") in Greek. Coupled with Cerise, putting their names together can get you "cherry blossom."
* TookALevelInBadass:
** In ''[=JN029=]'', she easily defeats a wild Fearow using her Yamper in order to protect Pidove without relying on her father to tell her what to do.
** In ''[=JN049=]'' she fights ''Team Rocket'' and their Pelipper -- their gacha machine isn't working, Ash and Pikachu are in a pit and Sobble and Cinderace are captured -- with Yamper and Eevee (via Copycat) using a double Spark attack.
** In ''[=JN063=]'', she goes out of her way to protect Goh's Dewgong from an angry wild Huntail and manages to defeat it when Eevee uses Hydro Pump via Copycat.
** The best example was in ''[=JN079=]'' where using Eevee's Copycat, she managed to defeat all three of Katsuki's Pokemon after she became a DamselOutOfDistress.
* TookALevelInCheerfulness:
** In the end of ''[=JN051=]'', she stopped shyly walking behind Ash and Goh and started running right past them and is a lot more cheerful than ever, showing her development into a Pokémon Trainer.
** With help from Dawn at the end of ''[=JN074=]'', she learns to stop being so serious about everything and to wind down and have fun with everyone else.
* TookALevelInKindness:
** In ''[=JN029=]'', she takes care of an injured Pidove and even manages to mend her relationship with her Yamper. At the end of the episode, she has learned to appreciate Pokémon more just like the rest of her family.
** In ''[=JN031=]'', she willingly goes out of her way to help Jinny learn how to swim and prepare for the Friendship Contest alongside Ash, Goh and Parker. By the end of the episode, she has come to really love Pokemon.
** In ''[=JN038=]'', she's no longer so cold towards Ash and has managed to form a friendship with him.
** By ''[=JN046=]'', Chloe is much more used to being in the lab and joining in on conversations about Pokémon, to the point that she was almost late for school because of it. Three episodes later, she's now opened her heart to having Eevee as her starter.
** A prominent example shows in ''[=JN074=]'' where after spending her first few episodes avoiding making friends with new people (and taking '''37''' episodes to warm up to Ash), she meets and becomes friends with Dawn very quickly.
* {{Tsundere}}: Towards her family's Yamper. Despite being the most outwardly cold towards Yamper out of her family, it has been established that they do have a strong bond, with Yamper only choosing to accept commands and food from her.
* WhatTheHellHero: It wasn’t shown onscreen, but at the end of ''[=JN030=]'', it was mentioned by Ash that she had let him have it for unintentionally neglecting Pikachu in favor of Riolu, presumably since the situation had reminded her of what she went through with Yamper.

[[folder:Chloe's Pokémon]]
!!Yamper (Wanpachi)
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/koharus_yamper_177546_4.jpg]]
->'''Voiced in Japanese by:''' Inuko Inuyama
->'''Voiced in English by:''' Tara Sands

The Cerise family pet, originally a gift from a friend in the Galar region. Although not officially Chloe's first Pokémon, he's very loyal to her and only accepts commands from her.
----
* AngryGuardDog: Towards Ash, at least in the beginning, but he does mellow out. Is more prudent towards enemies such as a wild Gengar who terrorized the Cerise Institute.
* BadassAdorable: He's willing to take on a rogue Gengar and finally knocks it out of the Cerise Institute once Chloe commands him to attack, one-shots a Fearow, and is quick to go into battle against Team Rocket without a sweat.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Acts like this to Eevee when they meet, taking her to Chloe's school and they work together delivering a dual Spark attack on Team Rocket's Pelipper.
* CharacterDevelopment: In ''[=JN029=]'', he grew jealous of the Pidove that Chloe was taking care of. Twenty episodes later, he becomes a big brother to Eevee and leads her to Chloe for help, along with being happy that she's now Chloe's partner.
* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: To Lillie's Vulpix, Snowy. While both Yamper and Snowy are loyal to their trainers, Chloe is known to act cold towards the corgi -- even becoming jealous of him when she was little -- and hesitates to command him to unleash a simple Spark. Meanwhile, when Lillie and Snowy are caught in danger, Lillie is quick to have Snowy attack with Powder Snow to defend itself and even go so far as to jump from a side of a building to save it. Yamper was a gift originally given to Professor Cerise while Snowy was an egg given to Lillie to raise.
* CurbStompBattle:
** On the giving end. He manages to take out a Fearow on Chloe's command with just Spark when they are protecting an injured Pidove.
** Downplayed against Team Rocket and Pelipper. While his first Spark attack didn't work, he ends up combining power with Eevee -- using Copycat -- to strike back.
* {{Foil}}: To Ash's Pikachu. Both are Electrical types, with Pikachu acting friendly towards everyone and is an experienced battler. Yamper, in the meantime, is closest only to Chloe to the point of being loyal only to her and has no battle experience at all. Chloe treats Yamper more like a pet, which is the nicest way to put it, while Pikachu and Ash are best friends. Pikachu was Ash's stater Pokémon whereas Yamper was gifted to the Cerise family.
* GreenEyedMonster: Was this towards a Pidove that Chloe was taking care of. Ironically, he was acting very similar to his trainer in the past. It's known to be quite an interesting character strength as Professor Cerise explains that it shows how close he is with Chloe.
* HeroicDog: Attacks Gengar in order to protect Chloe and is quick to fight off foes ranging from a wild Fearow to Team Rocket.
* {{Irony}}: The member of the Cerise family he's closest to is Chloe...the sole member of the family who wants ''little'' to do with Pokémon and can be quite cold towards him. She does eventually warm up to him, though.
* ItWasAGift: As revealed in [=JN029=], Yamper was originally given to Professor Cerise by a friend of his living in the Galar region.
* TheNoseKnows: ''[=JN059=]'' has him using his sense of smell to track down a lost Grookey's trainer.
* OutOfFocus: After Chloe gets an Eevee, Yamper doesn't get any significance until ''[=JN107=]'', almost ''sixty'' episodes later.
* PintsizedPowerhouse: A corgi who has a very strong Spark attack, capable of one-shotting a Fearow and strong enough that when, combined with Eevee's Copycat, can knock a Hydro-Pump attacking Pelipper out of the sky.
* PreciousPuppy: A cute, corgi-like Pokémon.
* ShockAndAwe: It's an Electric-type with its only move being Spark.
* SmallRoleBigImpact:
** The journey to go to Alola in ''[=JN037=]'' wouldn't have happened if Yamper didn't find a Leaf Stone for Goh to use on Execcute to evolve into Exeggutor and Ash comparing it to the Exeggutor in Alola.
** Had Yamper not deviated from his walk in ''[=JN049=]'', he wouldn't have bumped into Eevee then subsequently led to them hiding in Chloe's school and Eevee bonding with her.
* UndyingLoyalty:
** To Chloe, who ironically acts the coldest towards him among her family. So much so that he doesn't battle and accept a command unless Chloe, and ''only'' Chloe, tells him to as shown in ''[=JN011=]''. ''[=JN029=]'' reveals that this is because after Chloe wished that he disappeared, she realized her mistake and went back to find him, thus Yamper repaid this kindness by sleeping in her bed and only eating food given by her.
** Episode 59 shows it is also loyal and willing to obey Goh to whenever he is in need of his assistance.

!!Eevee
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/800px_chloe_eevee.png]]
->'''Voiced in Japanese by:''' Kei Shindo
->'''Voiced in English by:''' Erica Schroeder

A female Eevee from a nearby lab who is unable to evolve. After following alongside Yamper and ending up in Chloe's school, she helps fight off Team Rocket and subsequently becomes Chloe's first official captured Pokémon.
----
* AmbiguousSituation: The reason for her inability to evolve is left vague. She seems unable to evolve at all, but one of the scientists studying her proposes that she actually holding back because she hasn't decided what she wants to be yet - a parallel to Chloe herself not able to choose a path in life.
* BadassAdorable: A fluffy little 'mon with the Copycat move capable of knocking Pelipper out of the sky once she copies Spark. Notably, any move she copies seems to be much more powerful than the one who used it. (Example: Dawn's Piplup uses Bubblebeam against a Rhydon but does nothing. Eevee copies it and it goes down with one strike)
* BigBrotherWorship: Idolized Yamper to the point that she wanted to fight alongside him with Copycat to mimic his Spark against Team Rocker's Pelipper (their gacha machine wasn't working at the time).
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: She stands up on her hind legs trying to lay down for a belly rub like Yamper. Naturally, she falls over and Chloe asks her what she was trying to do.
* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: To the Eevee owned by May, Serena and Lana. She wasn't born in an egg nor found in the wild, can't evolve like May and Serena's did, and she isn't given a nickname -- or haircut -- like Lana's.
** Serena's Eevee was shy and bashful, but had a love of performing; Chloe's Eevee is really eager in trying to be like its evolutions, imitating them as much as she can, and is willing to battle alongside Yamper.
* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: Wants to grow big and strong like it's evolutions, but just can't and is struggling to figure out what to do. This mimics Chloe who is also trying to find what she wants to do in life.
* {{Determinator}}: If given a task, Eevee will put her sole focus on it. Best exemplified in ''[=JN068=]'' when Chloe requests Eevee to deliver medicine alongside Goh's Grookey to the Cerise Lab. After Grookey gets distracted and leaps over a fence -- thus having their medicine drop out of their handkerchief -- Eevee quickly remembers Chloe's hopeful wish that Eevee will complete the task, and Eevee decides to take the medicine and race off to the Lab.
* DreamCrushingHandicap: Wants to evolve like her fellow Eevee, but for some odd reason just can't evolve at all even when touching different stones.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Tries imitating Sylveon and Vaporeon's movements but it's only when we see her ''not'' evolving when touching Evolution Stones that we learn that she can't truly become them.
* {{Foil}}: To Ash's Pikachu. They're both starters to a trainer who don't evolve[[note]]Pikachu because he chooses not to, while Eevee is unable to for some reason[[/note]] who became official Pokémon partners after they used an electrical attack on a Flying-type (Pikachu against the Spearow flock, Eevee against Team Rocket's Pelipper). Pikachu starts with Electric moves, while Eevee can only duplicate them via Copycat.
* IChooseToStay: Decides to stay with Chloe at the end of her debut episode and becomes Chloe's starter Pokémon.
* {{Irony}}: Eevee are well-known for being able to evolve into different forms. This one ''can't''.
* MythologyGag: Appears to be a reference to the Partner Eevee from ''VideoGame/PokemonLetsGoPikachuAndEevee'', who also couldn't evolve.
* NeverGrewUp: Unlike the other Eevee at the lab, she can't evolve no matter what stone she touches.
* NonElemental: A Normal type that knows Copycat and Tackle.
* NotGrowingUpSucks: Due to her inablity to evolve, she tries to imitate the behavior of other Pokémon such as the other Eeveelutions at the lab or Yamper.
* PersonalityPowers: She tries imitating the characteristics of other Pokémon and she has Copycat to copy their moves.
* PowerCopying: She knows Copycat.
* RecurringElement: This isn't the first time an Eevee is a Pokémon of one of Ash's female companions.
* SecondarySexualCharacteristics: Has the female's tail markings that form into a heart depending on the angle. She's also the first female of her species to have the gender difference.

* ADayInTheLimelight: ''[=JN057=]'' is all about her.
* HiddenDepths:
** Mentioned in ''[=JN029=]'' that she had a little sister that she used to be jealous of.
** In ''[=JN047=]'' she's shown to be very enthusiastic and excited at a food-eating contest and is the one spouting exposition to Chloe.
** In ''[=JN057=]'', it's shown her favorite Pokemon is Psyduck since it's the Pokemon her friend has that comforted her when she was upset.
* HotScientist: She is a rather attractive woman.
* NotSoStoic: Despite mostly being [[MellowFellow rather calm]], she showcases great enthusiasm toward the Pokemon Eating Contest or whenever it comes to Psyduck.
* SatelliteCharacter: Downplayed. She's one of Prof. Cerise's assistants and that is what we know about her. However, in ''[=JN047=]'' she demonstrates a [[HotBlooded fiery passion]] and a lot of knowledge of the competition, as well as being quite a big fan of a Blaziken and his trainer who often participate in the competition. We see more characterization from her in ''[=JN057=]''
* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: She is just as prone to calamities caused by Ash and Goh's Pokemon as Professor Cerise and Ren are.

Goh's father.
----
* MeaningfulName: His Japanese name means "to go", tying into his son's name. His English name means ‘to walk’.
* WhenYouComingHomeDad: [[AvertedTrope Averted.]] Goh's parents both have jobs (at the same company, no less), but they do both love their son and are disappointed when their work prevents them from seeing him and how they're worried that Goh is incapable of making friends (due to him being constantly on his computer screens to research Mew's location). And hey, at least Goh ''has'' a father in his life as opposed to...[[DisappearedDad pretty much every other protagonist in the franchise]] not named [[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire May/Brendan]].

----
* BrickJoke: In an earlier episode she's shown drawing a cartoonish image of Chloe and Yamper, which she later publishes as a commission for a magazine much to [[MessyHair Chloe's chagrin]].
* ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: To Grace. Grace was tomboyish and all about constantly pushing her daughter to become a Rhyhorn racer and only relented after Serena stood up for herself. Meanwhile, Talia's desires are about being an artist and she comforts her daughter by stating Chloe doesn't have to rush into finding a career as long as she finds something that she likes.

* HappilyMarried: To Prof. Cerise.
* MeaningfulName: Her dub name means "to bloom" which is what she helps Chloe (whose name means "Blossom") to do.
