Mysterious individuals born with abilities akin to Pokemon. About 16 years before the story's events their numbers began to increase rapidly, and also begin to skew to being predominately female. They can be divided into the following categories (from most common to rarest): Technique, Species, Heart and Dominion. Many resemble a certain someone immensely...

Be warned, this section is full of spoilers, and for some characters, the mere fact that they are a Bloodliner is a Spoiler!

  • Adaptation Species Change: Any canon character who is a Bloodliner in this story, such as Ash and his girlfriends, Red, Yellow, Arnold or Jeanette.
  • Ambiguously Human: There's a big question mark over whether Bloodliners should be considered truly human or not, and considerable debate on the subject exists in the fandom. It's not clear if they're just humans with superpowers, or a different species altogether. Specific points:
    • Bloodliners look human to the point it's impossible to tell who is or isn't a Bloodliner at first glance unless they use their powers, can have human blood relatives, and it seems like not even qualified medical personnel can find any significant physical differences.
    • On the other hand, they seem to be more physically capable and durable than humans even without taking their special powers into account, have abnormally high metabolisms, and it's possible that there's simply not enough known about bloodliners to know what differences to look for.
    • This ambiguity also comes up in the story itself. Some characters believe them to be just humans with superpowers and other abnormal traits, while others think them to be distinct from humans.
    • Even bloodliners themselves can't come to a consensus, with some considering themselves humans, and others considering themselves something else. And that's without getting into characters who have changed their minds on the topic, like Misty, who started thinking of herself as human again after spending some time traveling with Ash.
  • The Beastmaster:
    • Heart Bloodliners have the ability outright to mind control Pokémon the same type as them, regardless if they're wild or caught ones. However, from the Pokémon's perspective, this is not a nice experience.
    • Species Bloodliners have a strong affinity with the Pokemon Species they happen to be.
  • Big Eater: They have heightened metabolisms, so they require greater amounts of food to replenish their energy. It's to the point that a character being a Big Eater serves as a significant hint to whether or not they're a Bloodliner.
  • Bizarre Baby Boom: There was a significant increase in the birth of Bloodliners sixteen years before the main story. No one knows why, but they have come to be called the Bloodliner Baby Boom Generation. It is hinted that it's related to the Dual Bloodliners, aka Ash and his siblings.
  • Combo Platter Powers: Species Bloodliners are capable of a wider variety of powers than Technique and Heart Bloodliners.
  • Crippling Overspecialization: Played with in regards to Technique Bloodliners. They can only use one single Pokémon move, but they can learn to use it in several varied and versatile ways.
  • Elemental Powers: Heart Bloodliners can learn any move from their respective types.
  • Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors: Like with Pokémon, the same rules apply for Bloodliners in resistances, immunities and weaknesses to different attacks, at least for Heart and Species Bloodliners.
  • Fantastic Racism: Both on the receiving end and the giving end. Non-Bloodliners fear them, with many considering them abominations. On the flipside, many Bloodliners consider non-Bloodliners below them, and that they have an automatic right to rule.
  • Gender Rarity Value: Because male Bloodliners are comparatively rarer among the Bloodliner Baby Boom generation, they are more highly valued by the Bloodliner King. This is not necessarily a good thing:
    Emissary: After all, male bloodliners are so rare, even if they are absolute wastes of molecules talent wise, they can still be used to breed better ones, or at least ones with better mindsets.
  • Harem Genre / Polyamory : Word of God suggests that besides Ash and his eventual girlfriends, due to the gender imbalance and tension with normal humans, younger female Bloodliners in general may share a Bloodliner love interest if they're interested in a relationship, or at least be a bit more open to the idea than normal people. There are currently three known stable polyamorous/polygamous relationships, Cleff and his girlfriends, Belladonna and her girlfriends, and Fender and his girlfriends (numbering nine). Midori and his female friends are also on their way there just like Ash and his female friends. Oddly enough, they all have one of Ash's half-siblings as the focal point. Hilda implies that this isn't a coincidence...
  • Healing Factor: It's heavily implied that bloodliners, like Pokémon, recover much faster and get spared from suffering scars from injuries that would leave a mark in normal humans.
  • Improbably Female Cast: Most of the Bloodliners born as part of the Bloodliner Baby Boom generation are female. Again, no one knows why.
    • Alish's parents actually had trouble conceiving despite lacking the normal fertility issues, the only irregular thing in the equation the fact that her father had a higher number than normal of Y Chromosome sperm. They only had her when they specifically chose one with an X Chromosome, leading to Blaine suspecting a connection, though he's still unclear on why it only affected the Boom Generation, and why Ash is male.
  • Jack of All Stats: Species Bloodliners have potentially more versatile and varied powersets, given that they can learn any move of their species, and have their inherent abilities. This could potentially be true for Dual-type Pokémon species.
  • Lamarck Was Right: In several cases, an affinity with the Pokémon species or type in question with a Bloodliner seems to run in their family. Misty's grandmother and cousin are both Water-type specialists, Lara's family raises Ponyta and she's a Rapidash Bloodliner, etc.
  • Mass Hypnosis: Heart Bloodliners can enthrall large groups of Pokemon, as demonstrated by Belladonna.
  • Meta Origin: The cause of the Bloodliner Baby Boom. According to Hilda, it's connected to the Dual Bloodliners, and something called the Riddle of the Ages.
  • Muggle–Mage Romance: Despite all the animosity between Bloodliners and non-Bloodliners, and even Word of God suggesting that Bloodliners have to be worried that someone they're in a relationship with might have Fantastic Racism beliefs, it's possible for there to be a romantic relationship between members of the two groups. Females of the Bloodliner Baby Boom generation in particular have to seriously consider this as an option since males of the Bloodliner Baby Boom generation are far fewer than them in number. Betty Snyder and Jamie Oliver are an example of a successful relationship, and Jeanette Fisher and A.J. are also there by the end of the Holiday Special 2017. Katana and her husband, however, not so much.
  • Mundane Utility: Some Bloodliners find use for their powers outside of the expected things like battling or speaking with Pokemon.
  • Personality Powers: How Dominion Bloodlines work. Each Bloodline has a concept, "Power" for Ash and his siblings, and as the bearers' personality forms their power takes shape to reflect their views on that concept as held dearest to their nature.
  • Recessive Super Genes: It appears that many, if not all of them, had a bloodliner ancestor, but the trait went dormant until something triggered it again in the current generation. For example, Ash being a Lucario bloodliner just like his mother's ancestor Sir Aaron. Hilda implies that so many Dual Bloodliners being born all of a sudden basically jumpstarted things.
    • For the Dual Bloodliners themselves, their father's Dominion Bloodline sort of completed a circuit.
    • Despite the abilities being dormant, it seems like they did have an affect on the families, several Bloodliners, like Lara and Misty for example, have had families with an apparent inherent affinity for the Pokemon species or type that matches the powers their Bloodliner relatives displayed.
  • Required Secondary Powers: See Super-Toughness below.
  • Speaks Fluent Animal: Heart Bloodliners are capable of perfectly understanding Pokémon the same type as them.
  • Superpowerful Genetics: Bloodlines can be inherited, as shown with Katana and Tsurugi. Those like Ash and Jeanette inherited them from more distant ancestors.
  • Super Power Lottery: With four broad categories, and a huge variety of possible powers, there's going to be some winners and losers. In general, Heart Bloodliners are by default winners due to their ability to control Pokemon of their type. Even if they show a reluctance to actually use it, they still have an affinity for their type. Similarly, Species Bloodliners can also be winners because they could learn a large variety of moves and have an affinity for Pokemon of their species. The losers are mainly confined to the Technique Bloodliners. If they don't have a good attacking move, or even a useful non-damaging move, then they're going to have all of the downsides of being a Bloodliner without any of the upside.
  • Super-Strength: They're stronger than average humans, although it's not yet specified to what extent, or if there's any difference from one type to another, or how easily it is for average humans to overcome the gap.
  • Super Supremacist: Some of the more bigoted Bloodliners hold the opinion that they deserve to rule over non-Bloodliners.
  • Super-Toughness: They're more resistant to injury than normal humans. Heart Bloodliners also are capable of enduring the conditions of the usual environments of their types.
  • When All You Have Is a Hammer…: Technique Bloodliners can use one Pokemon move, and only one Pokemon move. Some of them learn to be creative and flexible with their one move.
  • With Great Power Comes Great Opposition: All of them have some sort of power, which makes non-Bloodliners fear and discriminate against them.

Dual Bloodliners/Bloodliners who resemble Ash Ketchum

    General/Multiple 
  • Combo Platter Powers: They seem to all have their mother's bloodline and some kind of Dominion Bloodline, though many haven't displayed one or the other yet.
  • Darwinist Desire: The result of this. Their father spent decades researching lineages to find women carrying the genes of past bloodliners, which he then slept with to sire children with both his bloodline and the bloodline of their ancestors, which became active after being dormant for many years.
  • Family Theme Naming: Despite not knowing each other, several of them have repeating naming elements:
    • Colourful Theme Naming: Color is one of the repeating elements, with Red, Yellow, Gray (short for Grayson), Vermell (which means Red in Catalan) and Midori (Japanese for Green).
    • Floral Theme Naming: A number of them also have names relating to Ash trees: Ash himself of course, but you have Frax (for the Fraxinus order Ashes belong to), Velvet (For the Velvet Ash), Meliae (In mythology, Meliae are the Nymphs of Ash Trees) and Pendula (aka a cultivar of the European Ash tree).
    • Musical Theme Naming: Names referencing music are also common and shared with several of their paternal uncles, including Cleff (as in the Trebel Cleff, a musical symbol), (Grayson) Bebop (a style of Jazz), Ringo S. Beddle (The Beatles by way of a Jojo-style name), Fender (a real life manufacturer of string instruments and amplifiers), the Lono twins (a Hawaiian deity whose purview includes music), Biwa (a Japanese lute) and Minuetto (Italian for Minuet, a style of French dance).
  • Glowing Eyes: They all have Dominion powers, which when actively used, manifests in their eyes glowing a brown-orange colour.
  • Heroic Bastard: While it is not always touched on, none of them were born to a married couple, though a few such as Zilant and Ritchie have step-fathers. That is not to say that there aren't Bastard Bastards among them...
  • Identical Grandson: Several resemble the Seven Brothers' mother Heratia enough for at least two of the brothers to identify these kids as relatives.
  • Lineage Comes from the Father: Both played straight and inverted, they all inherited their father's Dominion Bloodline, which also reawakened the Recessive Super Genes from their mother's side of the family.
  • Long-Lost Relative: Everything points to them all being half-siblings to Ash. All that's missing is a DNA test, though several besides Ash and Belladonna have become aware of their half-siblings without the DNA test because of their Strong Family Resemblance.
  • Massively Numbered Siblings: Sabrina implied there's hundreds of them when she said that six wasn't even one percent of the total. Hilda gives a better estimate, saying that about 10% of a region's Bloodliners are Dual Bloodliners, which when combined with Cedric Juniper's statement that Unova and presumably the other regions now have thousands of Bloodliners each, means there's probably two hundred per region, at minimum.
    • The Holiday Special 2017 reveals that they are the products of decades of research, with their father tracking lineages across centuries to find their mothers. After that came seduction...
  • Mysterious Parent: Their father, the youngest brother of the Seven Brothers/'G', who fathered them after lengthy research into their mother's lineages.
  • Related in the Adaptation: Several of them were canon characters who originally weren't related to Ash, in spite of some of them looking like him.
  • Shared Family Quirks: They share quite a few personality quirks:
    • Iolani and Belladonna both use "Daycared" as a euphemism for a one-night stand.
    • Velvet, Iolani and Jane have apparently independently of each other reached the conclusion that whoever their biological dad is, he deserves a good punch to the face.
    • Ash and Velvet have similar reactions when their Pidgeotto and Alolan Meowth evolve during the final segment of a battle.
    • Like Ash, Frax seems to have the habit of turning his hat around when it's time to get serious.
    • Red and Ash both decided they prefer the "false" ones upon seeing an Alolan Exeggutor.
    • Red, Gray, Ritchie, and Belladonna have hinted experience with the Dream World: with Red being noted to being in it in the main story, Gray having a Dream Ball for his Scrafty and Ritchie his Taillow Rose, and Belladonna being at the canonical dream home of the Gen 5 player in the dream of what appeared to be E's Pikachu. Ash himself ends up having one along with Charizard, exploring a dreamscape similar to the Hero's Ruin from Unova.
      • Related to dreams, both Ash and Red are prone to having strange dreams.
    • A number of them are fond of having Pokemon walk with them outside their Pokeballs regularly, among them Ash, Red, Betty, Ritchie, Gray, and John. The Ranger siblings of course do this by default since they don't use Pokeballs in the first place.
    • Pikachu is popular among several of them, with Ash, Red, Ritchie and Travis having one as their partner, and Betty getting one by her appearance in the Holiday Special 2017 after seeing Ash's one in action. Their token good uncle, E, also has one.
    • Several of them also appear to display a willingness to be in a polyamorous relationship with others.
  • Shared Unusual Trait / Strong Family Resemblance: To a greater or lesser extent, they all share something in common with Ash or each other appearance wise, to the point that during the Fuchsia Tag Team tournament, people have started noticing. Key traits include:
    • Distinguishing Mark / Facial Markings: Quite a few have z-shaped marks on their cheeks, and several who do not in the present previously had them at some point. It's actually the most telling indicator since characters like Betty Snyder and Yellow, who otherwise look little like their half-siblings, are identifiable as such because of the marks on their face. Quite tellingly, at least one of their uncles also has them.
    • Statuesque Stunner / Tall, Dark, and Handsome: Most of them are tall and attractive, with many surpassing six feet in height. Considering the man implied to be their shared father is at least six and a half feet tall (according to Anna), their height makes sense.
    • Technicolour Eyes: Many have red eyes.
    • Other shared physical traits: Black hair appears to be their most common hair colour, and they also tend to have unattached earlobes.

Red Tajiri

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/resetbloodlinesred.png

Appears in: Main Story | Gary Interlude | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2016 (vision) | Arnold Interlude (TV Broadcast) | Gladion Interlude (mentioned) | Clair Interlude (mentioned) | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2017 (mentioned) | Hiker Interlude (mentioned) | Red One Island Interlude | Iris Gaiden (mentioned) | Red Two Island Interlude | A.J Interlude (TV Broadcast) | Pokémon Reset Bloodlines: The Movie - The Fanfiction (mentioned) | Red Three Island Interlude | Red Four Island Interlude | Red Five Island Interlude | Red Six Island Interlude | Red Seven Island Interlude | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2018 (mentioned) | Gary Interlude II (mentioned and flashback) | Indigo League Interlude | Cherry Bloodlines (alternate timeline counterpart, mentioned) | Orange Rose Gathering (alternate timeline counterparts) | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2022

A young trainer from Viridian City with a strong physical resemblance to Ash, and one of Ash's main rivals in Kanto (along with Paul).


  • Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Not much is known about him yet, but if his dreams are any indication, his past has anguish, more so than his counterpart in either the games or Pokémon Adventures.
  • The All-Solving Hammer: The second Island Interlude brings up the issue that he's becoming dependent on his Victory Sight. By Five Island however, he's coming to realize the troubles this can cause and he's actively trying to break out of it.
  • Always Someone Better: To Gary, whom he consistently defeats.
  • Armor-Piercing Question: Ultima asks him if he sees his Pokémon as friends or simply as means to an end. She also asks him if he would "give his best" if that would mean crippling an opponent, or otherwise permanently injuring them.
  • Ax-Crazy: His Clefairy, especially when it comes to Dragon types. His Pikachu suspects that the other Clefairy at Mt. Moon arranged for it to be captured so they wouldn't have to deal with it anymore. Given that Clefairy have a reputation of being elusive, Red finding and catching his so easily has him thinking the same theory. It's later revealed that he has a condition on his brain that makes him not realize when he's going overboard and letting his killing instincts take over.
  • Badass and Child Duo: Downplayed with him and Yellow, since the age difference is only about three years at most.
  • Berserk Button: He did not like it when Rosso used his mother's philosophy to act like a bully.
  • Big Creepy-Crawlies: Catches a Scyther and a Parasect in the Safari Zone.
  • Big Damn Heroes: He gets a moment of this, where he saves Yellow from a swarm of Zubat.
  • Broken Pedestal: Both on the giving and receiving end with Ash, as their conflicting views on the use of their Bloodliner Powers for competitive battling caused them to part on bad terms. However, when they meet again in Mewtwo's lair, they've come to understand better the other's viewpoint, and Red steps aside acknowledging Ash as the better-suited to fight Mewtwo's clones.
  • Breath Weapon: He can spit fire, and the reason for his quiet personality is because it sometimes slips when he talks too much.
  • Brooding Boy, Gentle Girl: Non-romantic example with Yellow. He always acts in a quiet, subdued manner, and Anabel senses that he seems very unhappy, mostly by choice.
  • Cain and Abel: The glimpses in Seven Island imply that he became the Cain to Ash's Abel in the Bad Future. Whether this is still going to happen remains uncertain, however.
  • Character Development: He undergoes plenty of this during his Sevii Islands interludes, coming to understand better how to be more social with his Pokémon, as well as his own issues about the way he battles.
  • Combat Pragmatist: He's not afraid to use his bloodliner powers to win battles, since there's nothing in the rules saying that it's illegal to use them. This puts him at odds with Ash, who views it as an unfair advantage and considers it cheating.
  • The Comically Serious: His usual attitude as The Stoic even in his more humorous scenes.
  • Composite Character: This Red has aspects from a variety of Red's depicted. He's generally silent and beats Gary a lot like the fanon/game Red, has a Clefairy like the Pocket Monsters Red, uses Charmander and Victreebel like Origins!Red, and travels with Yellow and possesses a Poliwrath and more aloof Pikachu than Ash like Adventures!Red.
  • The Corruptible: According to Giovanni, at least compared to Ash. Apparently he went down this road in the Bad Future, if the glimpses seen in the Seven Island Interlude are anything to go by.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: If his nightmares are any indication, Red's past was pretty awful. One even hints that he lost his mother because he accidentally burned down their house.
  • Deceased Parents Are the Best: His mother is dead, but Red clearly remembers her fondly.
  • Defrosting Ice King: As his journey through the Sevii Islands continues, slowly but surely, he's beginning to open up to his Pokemon, forming bonds with them in the process, and express more emotion in general.
  • Dishing Out Dirt: Catches a Sandshrew and a Rhyhorn in the Safari Zone.
  • Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette: He has light skin, very dark hair, and tends to unsettle most people he meets.
  • Everyone Has Standards:
    • He has no problem with Paul being an antisocial jerk, but releasing his Raichu and not bothering to properly heal her was crossing a very serious line.
    • He's also increasingly disturbed by his Clefairy's Ax-Crazy tendencies, which reaches a head in the Three Island Interlude.
  • Famed In-Story: By the Fuchsia Tag Team Tournament, he has gained some renown. One guy commented on how powerful he is, not realising Red was nearby. Red for his part doesn't seem to yet be aware of his growing fame.
  • Fiery Stoic: Is a Charizard Species Bloodliner, which gives him fire based powers. However, he's mostly stoic and doesn't talk much.
  • Foil: To Ash. While both are powerful trainers, Red is a generally quiet person who battles with a general preference towards power, while Ash is generally loud and battles with more flexible techniques that aren't as powerful. Also while Ash generally doesn't use his bloodline abilities because he feels like it's cheating, Red doesn't see using his abilities as such as they are a natural part of him, comparing not using to them to a naturally fast person not running as fast as they can. Red also takes his competitions and Pokémon battles much more seriously than Ash. It's suggested by the Holiday Special 2017 that they were conceived around the same time as well.
    • Chapter 26 brings it up with training methods. Both believe in focusing on a Pokemon's strong points to cover their weak points, vs Paul's method of dealing with their weak points to match their strong points. However Red works with a Pokemon species's strong points, while Ash works with a Pokemon's individual strength.
    • Anabel also compares them on their view of the world as a whole: Ash is a person who enjoys life and tries to see the world in a positive light with a cheerful attitude, while Red seems to consider that the world is not a nice place and behaves in a subdued manner as a result.
    • He's an interesting foil to Paul as a foil to Ash. Both of them are less friendly and close to people and their Pokemon than Ash is, but with Paul it's because Paul has no interest in doing so and thinks being friendly is a weakness. Red meanwhile does care for his Pokemon and has several standards about what it means to be a trainer, but his social awkwardness extends to them and doesn't bond with them as fast as Ash does.
    • He and Ash also have different feelings on Dunsparce, with Red outight admitting he has little interest in them to the point of ignoring one while at the Safari Zone whereas Ash is rather fond of the species and failed to catch one multiple times in canon.
  • Green Thumb: Has a Victreebel.
  • I Am Not Left-Handed: Averted as he finds this mentality insulting and has no qualms using his Victory Sight to win and it plays part of his issues with Ash. His mother taught him that not going all out against an opponent is disrespectful and as a result he sees Ash not using his powers as a show of arrogance that claims his opponents aren't worth taking seriously.
    • This mentality is deconstructed a bit later on, as Ultima points out that there are scenarios when holding back is appropriate, like in sparring or judging a foe's skill, and that using too much force, especially when it would seriously injure a foe, is just as bad.
  • An Ice Person: During the Four Island Interlude, he catches a Sneasel and a Lapras.
  • Kick Chick: His Kangaskhan likes kicking attacks, and Red is working on teaching her Mega Kick.
  • Logical Weakness: His Victory Sight is only as accurate as the information he has available. If his opponent has a hidden trick up their sleeve, or if he can't read their poker face very well, his Victory Sight can't take that into account. It can also give him wrong assessments if his information or assumptions are wrong, like when he battled Lilo and was unfamiliar with Crabrawler and Alolan Exeggutor.
    • As it relies on his brain and thoughts, Psychic-type attacks that affect his brain activity, such as Psywave, can disrupt it and even shut it down temporarily.
  • Making a Splash: His Poliwrath. Later at the Safari Zone he catches a Psyduck and a Gyarados. In the Sevii Islands, he catches a Slowbro and a Lapras.
  • Mangst: He has moments of this once in a while, hinting at his Dark and Troubled Past.
  • Messy Hair: The guy's hair is very messy under his hat.
  • Missing Mom: It's implied that Red lost his mother, Shinku.
  • Mundane Utility:
    • Apparently Red uses his Victory Sight to find the best deals when shopping. When going though the Safari Zone in Chapter 28 he also remarks that his ability to breathe fire is good for removing plaque build up or anything else stuck in his teeth.
    • The Slowbro he catches on Three Island knows Psywave. He accidentally discovers he can use it to temporarily disable his Victory Sight.
  • My Blood Runs Hot: When James shakes his hand, he can't help but notice that Red's skin feels unusually warm. And it's not just his perception, since Dexter notes that he has an unusually high body temperature in Chapter 26. Chapter 27 confirms this is a result of having a Fire-type species bloodline.
  • Mysterious Past: There are some tantalizing hints about Red's past, but nothing concrete as of yet.
  • Named by the Adaptation: He's given the surname "Tajiri". His mother is also given the name Shinku.
  • Never Tell Me the Odds!: He references this during his fight against Misty and her Gyarados, though his Victory Sight ability is itself an aversion.
  • Nightmare Sequence: In Chapter 10, Red has a nightmare about his house burning down, and hears the voices of his childhood tormentors berating him.
  • Non-Elemental: Has a Persian. He later catches a Snorlax and a Kangaskhan in the Safari Zone.
  • No Social Skills:
    • He has trouble talking to others, especially if it's not about Pokémon, and needs Yellow's help for what he should talk about during dinner with friends.
    • Even with his Pokemon his awkward social skills are an issue. Outside of Pikachu and Charizard he isn't close with any of them, and attempts to remedy that end up as awkward as his interactions with people.
    • He can't even figure out how to keep his Clefairy from going all Ax-Crazy all the time.
    • In the Sevii Islands arc, it becomes rather clear that he had a plan to hoard as many Mega-capable Pokémon as he could for the League. Siebold however explained to him that Mega Evolution runs on The Power of Friendship, and it's hard to achieve with just one Pokémon, let alone multiple.
  • Not So Stoic: There are several moments where his stoic attitude breaks, though even soe of these times were mostly in his head:
    • Has a major Oh, Crap! moment when Misty's Gyarados neutralizes his Pikachu's Thunderbolt.
    • When Iris gives him a Death Glare over his Clefairy's attempt to maim Axew he held his ground momentarily, before turning around and walking away rather quickly.
    • Is noticably angry after his and Ash's argument over whether or not their Bloodliner powers constitute as cheating.
    • Shouts in frustration twice during the Sevii Islands arc. First in frustration when fighting Ultima, and again when his Clefairy starts to brutalize an already defeated Slowbro with murderous intent.
    • Ash's unorthodox strategies frequently have him flatfooted.
  • Oh, Crap!: He has a MAJOR one when his Pikachu's Thunderbolt fails to damage Misty's Gyarados, who was using Iron Tail to jab itself into the ground in order to nullify it's effects. Red considers a Gyarados immune to electricity a nightmare came true.
  • Our Ghosts Are Different: Has a Haunter. His Charmeleon(later Charizard) also knows Shadow Claw.
  • Playing with Fire: His Charmeleon, now Charizard and later catches a Ponyta in the Safari Zone. He also has a Charizard Species bloodline.
  • Poisonous Person: His Haunter is part Poison-type. In the Safari Zone he later catches a Nidorino and an Ekans.
  • Power at a Price: How he feels about catching a Snorlax in the Safari Zone, since they eat too much.
  • Power Incontinence: Apparently, he can end up accidentally spitting fire if he talks too much. Also happens if he loses control and becomes angry.
  • Psychic Powers: Catches a Slowbro in Three Island. In Five Island he runs into the Berry Forest Hypno, and invites him to come along too after they help each other.
  • The Quiet One: Usually doesn't talk unless it's absolutely necessary, which isn't that often outside of battles since Yellow does his talking for him. Though it seems he doesn't talk much partly due to his Power Incontinence above.
  • Rage Breaking Point: He loses it when his Clefairy goes on another murderous rampage against a Slowbro, even after defeating it.
  • Samus Is a Girl: His Haunter and Rhyhorn are female.
  • Shock and Awe: His Pikachu.
  • The Stoic: He doesn't emote very often.
  • Super Mode: Received a Key Stone in the Battle Dome Tournament. At the Safari Zone he is offered Kangaskhanite from Naty if he can find them in the Sevii Islands and shortly after catches a Kangaskhan. However The One Island oneshot notes he isn't quite at a point where he's able to use it, even if he had the required mega stones.
  • Superpower Lottery: His Victory Sight is a great boon to his battles.
  • Tall, Dark, and Handsome: Given that he looks a lot like Ash, he qualifies. He has paler skin, but makes up with even darker hair.
  • A Taste of Defeat: He gets a sample of it in the Tag Tournament arc when he realizes he would have lost to Lilo and her Z-Move (but avoided it officially thanks to the first battle being called off and the second being won by Ash), and got a full taste of defeat at Ultima's hands on Two Island.
  • Technician Versus Performer: The Technician to Ash's Performer. He has raised strong Pokémon, but lacks adaptability to unexpected situations. His over-reliance on his Victory Sight certainly doesn't help.
  • Technicolor Eyes: Red has red eyes in this universe, which is a plot point.

    Yellow 

Yellow

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/resetbloodlinesyellow.png

Appears in: Main Story | Gary Interlude | Red One Island Interlude | Red Two Island Interlude | Pokémon Reset Bloodlines: The Movie - The Fanfiction (mentioned) | Red Three Island Interlude | Red Four Island Interlude | Red Five Island Interlude | Red Six Island Interlude | Red Seven Island Interlude | Indigo League Interlude | Orange Rose Gathering (alternate timeline counterpart) | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2022

A young girl who travels with Red after he rescued her from a swarm of Zubat in the cave of Mt Moon. A Heal Pulse Bloodliner.


  • Age Lift: Yellow is introduced into the story at age 12, as opposed to her 9/11 years of age first seen in the RB and Yellow chapters. (though her physical description suggests that she looks the same age as her manga counterpart).
  • Badass Adorable: Despite her age, she proved herself pretty capable of handling dangerous situations even without Red around.
  • Badass and Child Duo: Downplayed with Red and her, since the age difference is only about three years at most.
  • Big Brother Worship: Has nothing but respect and admiration for Red, before and after learning that he might actually be her older half-brother.
  • Big Damn Heroes: She and Ratty show up in the nick of time to help Red defeat Deacon in Five Island.
  • Big Eater: Was shown eating a lot during the Battle Dome Tournament.
  • Brooding Boy, Gentle Girl: Non-romantic example with Red. She's the one who does the talk for him most of the time, and has a more cheerful and friendly attitude.
  • Composite Character: Is a combination of Adventure's Yellow in appearance, with Bonnie and Mairin's behavior from XY.
  • Contrived Coincidence: If she and Red really are half-siblings, the circumstance of their meeting is this. Though given later revelations where it's implied there are hundreds of half-siblings, it probably isn't so contrived after all for one half-sibling to meet another.
  • Damsel out of Distress: With Ratty's help, she manages to free herself from her bounds, and shows up to save Red during the Five Island Interlude climax.

  • Only Sane Woman: Compared to Red, at least in the social skills department.
  • Super-Empowering: She's revealed to have a similar Dominion ability to Ash's, but the specifics are unknown as of now.

A mostly silent trainer who appears to hail from the Pokémon equivalent of Catalonia.


  • The Ace: Of his siblings, he has one of, if not the most, solid streak of performances. Vermell won Kalos, a feat not matched by any of his siblings his age, and while we have no idea how his fight with Alain went, he was still later called the most powerful of Mabel's brood and a match for Drake.
  • Calling Your Attacks: Averts this as much as possible, generally only giving vague commands that his Pokemon recognize the intent of. It's hinted he uses his bloodline to smooth out communication intent.
  • Expy: Of game Red. Many members of his team mirror Red's team (Roserade is a Grass-Poison Type like Venusaur, Talonflame a Fire-Flying type like Charizard, Octillery a pure water type with a cannon motif like Blastoise, his Ursaring is a powerful normal type like Snorlax, and his Jynx shares typing with both Espeon and Lapras), and Alain fights him atop a mountain. His name even means Red in Catalonian.
  • Fantasy Counterpart Culture: He seems to be from the Pokémon equivalent of Catalonia.
  • Gratuitous Foreign Language: Often says words in Catalan.
  • Happily Adopted: By Mabel when he agrees to go with Pendula.
  • Offscreen Moment of Awesome: His victory over the Kalos League conference was not shown, only mentioned offscreen.
  • Parental Abandonment: His mother abandoned him after finding out he was a bloodliner.
  • Super Mode: He can mega-evolve his Steelix.
  • Tall, Dark, and Handsome: He's tall and possesses dark hair. His handsome status comes from looking like Ash and Red.
  • The Quiet One: During his debut appearance he tends to speak very little. This becomes less frequent later on, and by the time he's living with Mabel, he's shown to be more talkative with his adoptive family.
  • We Used to Be Friends: He apparently found and traveled with one of his half-siblings for a while, but said sibling was a Super Supremacist and had views that Vermell couldn't agree with.

  • Sherlock Scan: Her Dominion bloodline is hinted to be related to doing this, as in Kiawe's Interlude she gets some information she couldn't have known twice.
  • Shut Up, Hannibal!: She's having none of Odlaw's Motive Rant when he tries to say that the Trial Captains are to blame for Team Skull.
  • Statuesque Stunner: Yes. She's stated to be taller than pretty much every character that appears in the Kiawe one-shot.

  • Required Secondary Powers: To complement her ice powers, she has the ability to tolerate extreme cold, enough that she can handle Nevermelt Ice (something so cold that normal humans can't touch it without protective gear) using her bare hands.
  • The Runaway: Was this for several years, until her parents finally found her.
  • Shipper on Deck: Apparently, she's the biggest supporter of Lorelei/Frey.
  • Speaks Fluent Animal: Only with Ice-types.

Appears in: Main Story | Arnold Interlude | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2017

Appears in: Main Story | Jeanette Interlude | Big P Pokémon Race Interlude | Clair Interlude (mentioned) | Black Arachnid Gaiden | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2017 | Hiker Interlude (mentioned) | A.J Interlude | Reset Bloodlines Holiday Special 2018 (photo) | Indigo League Interlude

A young female trainer from Crimson City, and the heiress of the Fisher clan. She's a Victreebel Species Bloodliner.


  • Adaptational Badass: The one in the original timeline was most definitely not a bloodliner. On top of that Jeanette also was given a Keystone and evolved her Scyther into a Scizor, and she uses Mega-Scizor during the Indigo League.
  • Ascended Extra: Twice over. In the original anime, she's just one of Ash's opponents in the Indigo League conference, albeit the one with the most exciting battle. Here, like most of Kanto's Characters of the Day, she shows up from time to time during events such as the Battle Dome tournament, but even there, no mention is made of her being a Bloodliner until her own interlude.
  • Big Creepy-Crawlies: Has a Beedrill and a Scyther/Scizor.
  • The Clan: She's the heiress of the Fisher clan, the most important family in Crimson City. Their founder was a Victreebel bloodliner.
  • Clark Kent Outfit: Her kimono acts as this. A.J muses she has a nice figure underneath.
  • Crazy-Prepared: She apparently packed paragliders for herself, and for her Bellsprout.
  • Doppelgänger Spin: Her Scizor can use Double Team.
  • Green Thumb: Her main Pokémon is a Bellsprout, and she herself is a Victreebel bloodliner.
  • Love at First Sight: Maybe not at first sight, but it's clear that she wants to pursue a relationship with AJ after he didn't reject her for being a bloodliner, and that was just after their first encounter.
  • Mistaken for Gay: When she asks her parents if they'd still love her if she was different, her mother briefly thinks she's coming out of the closet.
  • Muggle–Mage Romance: Attracted to A.J. because he didn't mind she was a Bloodliner, and they had a Relationship Upgrade during the Holiday Special 2017.
  • Mundane Utility: She uses Sweet Scent as a substitute of perfume.
  • My Greatest Failure: Having four badges herself, Jeanette didn't take very well losing against Iris in the Lavender Tournament, who has zero. It was enough to make her stop her journey in order to train more.
  • Noblewoman's Laugh: Given that she did this in canon, it's very likely that she did so during her battle with Iris in the Battle Dome Tournament.
  • Not So Above It All: When a guy tries to bet with A.J whether Ash can win or not a battle on TV, she quickly puts forward five hundred to cover him.
  • Ojou: Daughter of a high-class family, and acts the part... mostly.
  • Old Money: Though it's not clear if they're outright Blue Blood, the Fisher clan is centuries old and very upper-class.
  • Poisonous Person: Being a Victreebel Species Bloodliner, she's part Poison-type.
  • Power Incontinence: A mild case; she accidentally releases a Sweet Scent when she sneezes.
  • Rich Bitch: Played for Laughs, her mother advised her to act the part and every now and then take breaks and be a normal teenager, just to see how people react to the change.
  • Sophisticated as Hell: As part of putting on an image of a proper upper class girl before taking breaks to see how people react, she speaks like this.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: She's noted to look a lot like her mother.
  • Super Mode: She borrowed A.J's Beedrillite for a while, but was unable to use it to its full potential. Fortunately, she won a Scizorite at a tournament in Viridian, and uses Mega-Scizor during the sixth round of Indigo.
  • Twice Shy: She's taken a clear shine to AJ, and unknown to her he actually reciprocates.
  • Uptown Girl: She's this to A.J, being the heiress of Crimson City's most prominent family.
  • Weak, but Skilled: As per canon, her Bellsprout has developed this fighting style to defeat opponents much larger and stronger.

  • Speaks Fluent Animal: Only with Fire-types. This has come in very handy to help Blaine with his research duties.
  • Super-Power Meltdown: Unleashing a single Overheat attack caused her to drop completely exhausted.
  • Survivor Guilt: When she discovered her Bloodliner powers, she blamed herself for the fire where her parents died, thinking that she caused it.
