Whats your favorite main character in the anime?
 
Uhhh, did somebody make this before?

Simple question. What's your favorite main character in the series?

Whats mine you say?

Boy- Brock. Only thing I like is that he's a breeder like me. :cer_eek:

Girl- May. I don't even know why! SOMEBODY HELP MEH PLEAZA! :pink_eek:

Your turn. :cer_shifty::pink_shifty:

P.S. Come on now! Say something other than ASH. :cer_blankstare:

Wings Don't Cry July 25th, 2009 6:03 PM

Well okay my favorite characters are

Boy: Jimmy
Girl: Cynthia

Vernikova July 25th, 2009 6:22 PM

A list thread.
  • Dawn/Hikari (Pokémon Diamond and Pearl): I like her better than the other girls in the series but she's almost tied with May as my favorite female. I also like her Pokémon. Piplup especially.
  • Ash Ketchum/Satoshi (Pokémon, Pokémon Advanced Generation, Pokémon Diamond and Pearl): His attitude in Sinnoh is what made him my favoite male characters. Before him it was no other male since they all sucked.

Kitty! July 25th, 2009 6:46 PM

Haruka. Obviously.
I've never loved and been so obsessed with a character as much as I have been with her. ahaha. She is an amazing chick. mehehehe, and I explain all the time loooaads why she is my favorite, so yeah. :] everyone knows!

and if I had to choose a favorite guy ..uhum ....James. He's considered a main character ..I mean, he's in every episode.

Neko July 25th, 2009 7:16 PM

For guys, it would have to be either Brock or Lance. As for girls, I would chose Nurse Joy/Officer Jenny. XD I never really liked the main females of the series. They were all too annoying for me. x_x;

Sweet Smoochum July 25th, 2009 8:00 PM

Girl: Misty. I thought she was funny. It was funny seeing her yell at Psyduck.

Guy: I liked Gary. (I'm considering him an original main character.) Gary was like "smell ya later, gramps." XD

Heiheipig July 25th, 2009 8:21 PM

Brock, because he has NO eyes! (and he's cool)

xxxLatiasxxx July 26th, 2009 1:27 AM

Brock because he is funny.

Witch July 26th, 2009 7:04 AM

Misty & Dawn ^^ I'm not sure about a male character as they never caught my intrest

ambellina i was wondering something, did you make the second picture in you're sig or its a site with a pokemon team maker(kinda)

Super Puppy July 26th, 2009 9:13 AM

For the guys, it's James/ Kojirou of course!

I'm not too sure about the girls. I always thought Misty was kinda cool, so her I guess.

Damiano July 26th, 2009 1:25 PM

Girl: Misty
Boy: Old Ash or Brock

Johnny590 July 26th, 2009 2:59 PM

It has always been Brock. He's practically been in EVERY Pokemon season and recently he's acquired some cool Pokemon, not to mention the amount of family members is hilarious.

As for my favorite female character, it's definitely Misty.

Hey, I'm old school. :P

Inferno1 July 26th, 2009 3:49 PM

Brock and ash and misty and dawn lol i cant pick lol i hated max and tracy and i didnt care to much for may so lol

Swift! July 26th, 2009 4:50 PM

Brock and James. Need I say more?

:3 July 26th, 2009 5:22 PM

Besides Ash, I pick Brock. I like how his love for all things nurse joy has calmed down recently, and I enjoy when his pokemon intervene, like with Crogunk and his poison jab. :p

As for favorite female, Id have to say Misty. I miss her.

Gary, the Magic Fairy July 26th, 2009 6:13 PM

Tracey. I found him to be quite interesting. As for female characters, I would say Misty.

EmeraldSky July 26th, 2009 6:15 PM

Male-Brock (he never fails to make me laugh)
Female-Misty (the camaderie (sp?) she had with Ash and Brock was great)

Nyjil da Kid July 26th, 2009 6:23 PM

When the series first started up until Advanced Battle I loved James...until they ruined his voice...then I liked Jimmy/Gold

I liked Misty since she kept the show interesting to me...but then I liked May as soon as she caught Munchlax!!!! [And Blaziken, Squirtle]

*Charizard* July 26th, 2009 6:45 PM

Male: Ash (hurry up and become a Pokemon Master or retire)
Female: May

Captain Hobo. July 26th, 2009 7:08 PM

Thats so easy Brock and Ash

TundraCanine July 27th, 2009 6:40 AM

I'd have to agree with you KingAlex.
May and Brock are my two favorite characters too. ^^

And how old is Brock? He hangs around 10 year old children......

Mew~ July 27th, 2009 7:15 AM

Paul & gary FTW
THEY BOTH SHOW ASH UP SO MUCH n put him in his place

Deeje July 27th, 2009 8:43 AM

Definately Misty - No Doubt. No other female or male can ever match her awesomeness! She was tough, cool, funny, brave, liked pokemon and didnt' start out like a newb. She was the original and the best!

KingAlex July 27th, 2009 4:35 PM

I heard before that Brock was older....

21? Come on, Nurse Joy gotta be in her 20's.

Some official sketches set his age at 15 in Kanto.

noobiot100 July 27th, 2009 6:56 PM

boy: Gary. He is just cool
girl: May and I don't know why.

ShinjisLover July 28th, 2009 10:06 AM

Going for just the main (as in, in almost every episode of a certain region characters), then I'd have to say:

Male »Kojiro/Nyaasu → Kojiro - He's hilarious, ya gotta admit it. I love how he cares for his Pokémon as well. However, his new English voice actor ruins him. . → Nyaasu - He's adorable, he's a smart-elec, and he's just smart in general. Gotta love smarts!

Female »Haruka - She's awesome. She had such excellent character development (she was afraid of Pokémon but then ended up to be a great coordinator). She was so original until Hikari came along. =/

Juu-Chan July 28th, 2009 12:47 PM

Of course I have to post here!

Nodon'tgetmewrong...I like Ash but I mean, the kid's in every single episode...

Nya, I like Paul. Or Shinji as the above person has reminded me. ^^; I watch it on Jetix. So he's Paul to me. He's so freaking badass...XDD

As for the girls? I love the manga girls way more than the anime girls. Leaf and Yellow and Crystal were all so unique!

Latiace July 28th, 2009 1:05 PM

Dawn and Misty are my absolute favorites!

XxDawnfanxX July 29th, 2009 12:00 AM

Girl: Dawn, I just love her character and determination. She is a very pretty girl who has a lot of talent in contests and has grown to become my favorite. Misty is a close second, because I grew up with her as a main character. Irreplaceable of course are those old episodes

Boy: Ash Ketchum, a lot of people say they hate Ash's character but why? He is a great example of how a 10 year old would act in situations and has learned breifely from them. People always say he is a mediocre trainer because he has yet to win a region. But look at a 10-13 year old kid getting in the top 8 and improving, as he gets older he will get a lot better

RUBY8 July 29th, 2009 12:07 AM

WOW this is really hard so i guess i would say that so far i sorta like Paul in the anime don't know why but he is cool and relaxed but aggresive in battle my style!!

I agree with you why does every1 hate on ash i mean they a say he has weak pokemon and he never wins a tournament but he gets better every season it is only a matter of time and besides if he wins what will come next?

mew² July 29th, 2009 12:36 AM

I would have to say.... ( list time XD )

Male: Max, he was hecka tight :D
Female: Cynthia and Candice *drools*

Waiting for a PokeSpe season ): Yellow and Red are ftw!

Jolene July 30th, 2009 3:16 AM

Does James count as a main character? If so, him.

Oh my gosh! Deeje, you rock! That's exactly the way I feel. Misty is, and always will be, my favorite Pokemon character. I could rant on about the countless reasons why, but I don't want to bore anyone. May's a pretty close second for my favorite female character, while Drew, Tracey, and Gary are my favorite guy characters. I also love Ash and Brock! They can be so funny. Although, this is only taken into account with their proper voice actor. I can't stand the new voice actors. They completely ruin my outlook on the characters they now voice. I can only imagine each pokemon character with their original voice, (excluding James and Meowth's first voice actors that go replaced early on.)

Anyway, here's a list for the people who were too lazy to read the above.

Female:
1.Misty
2.May
(There are numerous minor characters who would be on this list as well)

Male:
1.Drew
2.Tracey
3.Gary
4.Ash
5.Brock

branchi August 5th, 2009 8:13 AM

ash and misty.i want misty back.

A Real True Winner Is Me August 5th, 2009 8:14 AM

My favorite was Max, May's little brother.


Flamezdudes August 5th, 2009 8:27 AM

Paul because he's badass, and don't give me that crap about not caring about Pokemon. What do you think we do in the games?. We choose Pokemon we want and don't want to use to battle a throw away ones we don't.

Cloche August 5th, 2009 2:07 PM

Kojiro (James) and Kasumi (Misty)
Has been since I first started watching.

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ August 8th, 2009 7:53 AM

Boy: ash and James
Girl: I do like both Misty and dawn equally, and I really love Jessie


:t354:TG

Guns August 9th, 2009 1:31 AM

Boy: Jimmy (If you count the chronicles) otherwise Brock.
Girl: Tied between Dawn and Misty.

Semidos August 9th, 2009 6:40 AM

Boy: Ash and Gary
Ash - because Misty loves him (aaml, pokeshipping, etc.)
Gary - because he is good trainer

Girl: Misty
- the best girl I have ever seen

Right! Me too.

Ponyta August 9th, 2009 8:38 AM

Jesse and James. lol. Brock was kinda cool until they made him suck in D/P

dragonface August 9th, 2009 9:41 AM

boy- GARY/LANCE
girl-MAY
Idk why its just like that!

mikey August 9th, 2009 11:34 AM

Misty was my favorite main female character, and Ash was my favorite male character.

R a i n e+ August 9th, 2009 1:06 PM

Male-Probably Shuu, Shinji, or Harley, if they count.

Female-I'm tied between Kasumi and Hikari.

Pichufan17 August 9th, 2009 4:10 PM

Boy: Ash, Brock and Ritchie
Girl: Misty, Sabrina and May

Logiedan August 9th, 2009 4:24 PM

Male: Gary
Female: May.
Gary looks ftw in a professor's coat. (:
And he gets an Electivire..

Ash~The Purifying Prince~ August 9th, 2009 4:39 PM

Girl: Well duh! Misty of course! shes always been my favorite girl!

Guy: Ash; same as what went with Misty, he's always been my favorite.

I like other characters as well; but I'll be here all day naming them. xD so I'll settle with my most favorite ones.

PikaBelleChu August 9th, 2009 9:23 PM

Ash since well I have cosplayed him for about 10 years now. Kinda grown attached.LOL.

Jorah August 10th, 2009 3:16 AM

Male: Barry (I can't believe no one's mentioned him XD) he's crazy and a complete spazz XD And it's just too funny how he fanboys Paul. I'm really glad they decided to add him to DP, even though they introduced him quite late. It's worth watching an episode just to see him ^_^

Female: May. I like how she got some character development, going from someone who was uninterested and in Pokemon and kind of incompetent into becoming a good coordinator ^_^ I found her obsession with ramen late in the series quite funny, as well

Omg xD I totally forget about Barry sometimes and it is funny seeing a fanboy of Paul. To imagine..Paul has fanboys!:laugh:

Anyway...my favorite characters are:

Girl: Misty for I've liked her from the start of the series...plus I have been told I act a lot like her which I can see since I use to (still am but not as much) a tomboy =D. Plus having a very quick temper but can have a very caring side for my friends....just have trust issues =/ BUT I do love me the water pokemon!

Boy: Ash...he's my type of guy I don't care what other might think. He's smart (sometimes xD), brave, and can be a bit dense..which I'm sure most of us know. He'd be my best friend if he was real cause he's so cool like that. Plus I share that care he has for his Pokemon cause sometimes I hate trading away the ones that did so much for me.

Umbreon from my Pokemon Silver...I still miss you for all your hard work and the same to you Feraligatr. Stupid batter thing...I shall never forget you guys!

ryaneden August 15th, 2009 5:46 PM

my favorite boy is brock and favorite girl is misty

Guy August 15th, 2009 6:36 PM

I've always liked Ash/Satoshi as a character, not just because he's the main character and not just because he's stood out more, but because he stands for something in the anime. He's a ten year old kid [could be older, but you never know if they age or not] who tries, he tries his best to succeed at a goal. Usually, most people wouldn't do that in life, but at least Ash teaches a moral besides trying to be better than most in a world of Pokémon. Besides his moral lessons, he has always had a similar attitude and way of thought like mines, which was intriguing to learn, but yet it makes me favor Ash a bit more than other leading male roles in the anime.

As for the female favorite, it has been May/Haruka ever since she appeared in the show. Besides her spontaneous love for food, she too has a similar attitude like Ash's which caught my attention. Her style in doing things were always enjoyable throughout the show and when she began contests is when I got even more into May. So, she stands as my favorite female now, and she is the one who has gotten me into playnig through contests within my games itself.

Exactly, I couldn't agree more. Most would just give up when thrown down. However, Ash has taken his losses especially at the pokemon leagues and has learned from them. He takes the positives and moves on with motivation to stride to be better in his next battle. Everyone of course questions how stupid he was in the beginning but what 10 year old wouldn't make mistakes like that? His attitude is incredible how he lets nothing get in his way. It is so rare to find someone who has been put down, but uses that to keep them running to succeed at their goal to be the best.

Charizard★ August 16th, 2009 10:26 AM

Brock, Pikachu or Ash. Brock always makes me laugh so I'll choose him for right now :3

Saud-Blaziken August 16th, 2009 10:38 AM

Hmmmm
I hate Jessie but I like James he's AWESOME!

Miniduffa August 19th, 2009 9:40 AM

They've never found a decent replacement for Misty. They should never have gotten rid of her. She was made of awesome. Henceforth, Misty is my favourite character and always will be :D

Halcyon August 20th, 2009 1:54 AM

Ash.
He's so handsome and awesome with his DP outfit.

But please PLEASE take off Animechu. >:[

donkeyman August 20th, 2009 4:00 AM

My favourite is Dawn, I just love her. She has awesome pokemon as well, so cute ^_^. Her no need to worry, makes me smile every time. May is horrible, her voice is too quiet. Oh yeah and my favourite boy would be wobbuffet if he counts :P

mervyn797 August 20th, 2009 4:05 AM

lol! i like max! quite a genius about pokemon!
girl: dawn, um... i dont remember why!

Twisted Cuteness August 20th, 2009 5:37 AM

Dawn. She's adoreable! I love everything about her! I wish I had her attitude and pokemon *steals*

I'm not sure about a male character. seeing as I have too many Bishies to count ^^;;

silverdreams92 August 20th, 2009 6:54 AM

Male: It`s a tie between James and Brock. Out of all the guys they catch my interest the most.
Female: Misty. I never liked Dawn or May.

Boy: It's to hard to pick! xD
Girl: Misty definitely. She's cool and tough!
I really don't like Dawn or May for some reason..

Cloche August 21st, 2009 1:33 PM

Female - Kasumi (Misty) - Haruka made me want to kill things. -__-
Male - Kojiro (James) Ever since I was little, I wanted to date/marry him. XD
I think he had quite a few funny moments too.

Queen August 21st, 2009 1:58 PM

I like Dawn and Misty.
They're cute and kind ^^

funnykid August 21st, 2009 7:34 PM

Misty and Dawn. I love Misty's independence and strong will, while I love how Dawn is a happy-go-lucky person who believes everything will be alright. :D

Kazu-Kun August 22nd, 2009 6:47 PM

Boy: Gary or Ash (Orginal Pallet town Rivally much more awesome than other ones aka, richie, morrison, harrison, and now paul and barry xD)
Girl: um... Whitney in Johto was awesome but she's not main so I gotta go with May or Haruka

aurevesque August 24th, 2009 4:04 PM

oh boy...
fav female: May definitely. Dawn reminds me of those stereotypes about girls , ya know, all girly and love pink. May seemed more in depth to me, ya know.
fav. male: can't Drew count? I loved his I'm-better-than-you-and-you-know-it kinda attitude. plus he always got May mad!

LDUK August 25th, 2009 5:29 PM

Guy: James. James is cool, I love him. He's funny because of his screams and the way he tries his best. Plus I feel sorry for him because of Jesse.

Girl: Misty by far! How cool is that girl! She's bad a$$ and rocks! Plus, she loves Ash. Which sucks because now she's gone! Grrrrrr!
