Ephraim

Ephraim (Japanese: ミノル Minoru) was the character of the day for The Grass Route.

He is a farmboy from Johto who specializes in raising Template:Type2 Pokémon. His parents use a large collection of Grass-type Pokémon to maintain their farm. He convinces Ash to enter his Chikorita and Bulbasaur in the Grass Tournament.

Ash faced Ephraim in the finals, with Ephraim using Skiploom and Ash using Bulbasaur. Skiploom almost lost, but learned SolarBeam at the last moment, defeated Bulbasaur, and won the tournament. His prize was a collection of Leaf Stones, which he planned on using to evolve his parents' Pokémon.
