Ash Ketchum in Indigo League

Some people think Ash and Red are the same. But that is NOT true! In this, the comparisons will say the differences, and the similarities.

Gym Battles Red
It has been a long time since I read the Pokemon Manga, but I can remember Red did win most of the Badges in Kanto. If I remember correctly,

Ash
You probably remember that Ash only won the battle against Lt. Surge! The other of the first 5 battles, the Gym Leaders gave him the badge for assistance (Like in Pokemon Scent-sation), rather than actually winning. And the battle in "Battle For The Badge", where Ash battled Jessie (While James & Meowth watched, and tried to cheat) shouldn't have counted! He should have had to battle Giovanni!

Character Red
Red is a silent Trainer (As seen in HG/SS), in fact, he doesn't talk at all! Not much else is known about him, except he wanted to be the greatest Trainer. Also, in R/B, he only answers yes or no to any questions.

Ash
A Trainer with the same goal as Red, Ash was a stubborn Trainer in the beginning, but dedication to his goal paid off, with him entering the Indigo League.

Pokemon Red
Again, I haven't read the Pokemon Manga in a long time, so I don't remember all the PKMN Red caught. But here are some:
Starter: Can't remember (Bulbasaur maybe?)
Gyarados (Given to him from Misty)
Nidoking
Pikachu
Poliwhirl--Evolved into-->Poliwrath
and some others.

Ash
Currently using:
Pikachu
Starly--Evolved into-->Staravia--->Staraptor
Chimchar-->Monferno-->Infernape
Turtwig->Grotle->Torterra
Buizel
Gible

In training:
Gliscor
Squirtle
Primape
Charizard

With Prof. Oak
Bulbasaur
Kingler
Muk
Taurosx30
Snorlax
Bayleef
Cyndaquil
Heracross
Totodile
Donphan
Noctowl
Swellow
Sceptile
Corphish
Glalie
Torkal

Also, the two have had some other differences that aren't above! Here are some more.

Red actually defeated Team Rocket, Ash only has battled Jessie/James and Butch/Cassidy.
Ash had caught a Shiny Pokemon, Red hadn't (I think).
Red's Charizard (As seen in Super Smash Bros. Brawl) actually does things! Unlike Ash's Charizard, who sleeps through a battle (Like in the Cinnabar Gym Battle and Indigo League Vs. Ritchie).
Red has caught more Pokemon, and his Pikachu is much weaker than Ash's.

MasterRed Don't forget Manga Red has a blood connection with a Deoxys and deafeted a Mewtwo :P.

Taika Red's starter was charmander,while ash's was pikachu!Also,ash gets an evolved pokemon to start with,unfair!

pipiqueen well, the truth is, satoshi tajiri wanted ash to be a champion like red , but if he did that the profit the get out of anime reduces................so he accomplished his dreams of ash being a very strong and unbeatable trainer through red.......................

"Yawn... C'mon you guys,we have to do something! Its a scorching 97 degrees!" Rosalie cries as her long hair blows in her face by the electric fan going on. "Well, for celebration of all of us getting our new gym badges... We should all go to the Unova beach!" Volkner replies. Rosalie's eyes go wide. "REALLY? OH VOLKNER I LOVE Yo-" She pauses. "*Ahem*. I love yogurt" She quickly changes. Volkner chuckles and says, "So is it a plan?" Aurora looks at Tobias and he looks at her. "Yes!" Rosalie jumps up fast and fist pumps. "then lets goooo!"

"Girls! Are you done yet? its been forever! It shouldn't...
