Cameron (Japanese: コテツ Kotetsu) is a recurring character who appeared in the Pokémon anime. He is a Pokémon Trainer and one of Ash's rivals in the Best Wishes series. He first appeared in Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!.
History
Cameron first appeared as Ash, Iris, Cilan, and Dawn were leaving the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup with his Riolu. He had meant to compete, but arrived too late. He later appeared as the group was seeing Dawn off. He announced he was going to take part in the Unova League, but he was missing his eighth Badge because he thought that only seven Badges were required to enter. He also mistakenly thought the League was going to be in Ecruteak City in Johto.
In The Road to Humilau!, Cameron challenged Marlon to a Gym battle for a Wave Badge. He used his Ferrothorn and Samurott to battle Marlon's Jellicent and Mantine. Ultimately, Cameron and his Pokémon were able to come through with the win against Marlon and his Pokémon in order to get the last Badge necessary for Cameron to compete in the Unova League.
He reappeared in Curtain Up, Unova League!. He had just arrived at Vertress City to compete in the Vertress Conference and had set up his tent close to the hotel for the competitors, to make sure he wouldn't be too late to sign in. When Ash, his friends, Bianca, Stephan, and Virgil walked past his tent and met up with him, he heard from the announcement that the time period for registration has ended. Ash hurried with him to the registration counter, where Nurse Joy made an exception for them. In the first round, he battled with his Ferrothorn against Kendrick and his Eelektross. The battle ended in Mission: Defeat Your Rival!, and he won, allowing him to move on to the next round.
In the same episode, it was revealed Cameron would face Bianca during the second round, in a two-on-two battle. Cameron started with his Samurott against Bianca's Escavalier. The Cavalry Pokémon was defeated rather quickly, after which Bianca sent out, much to everyone's shock, her Emboar. After withstanding super effective Aqua Jet and Hydro Cannon, however, Emboar used Attract on Samurott, causing it to become infatuated and soon defeated. Next Cameron chose to use Riolu, which Bianca thought to be very cute. Despite the notable size difference, Riolu was able to defeat the Mega Fire Pig Pokémon, causing Bianca to be eliminated from the Conference.
In Strong Strategy Steals the Show!, it was revealed he would battle Ash in the quarter-finals. The battle started at the end of the episode and was continued in Cameron's Secret Weapon!. Despite accidentally handicapping himself by bringing five Pokémon instead of six (having mistakenly thought that a Full Battle was five-on-five), Cameron had a good start, with his Hydreigon taking out two of Ash's Pokémon. However, Ash used his Pignite to defeat Hydreigon as well as Ferrothorn, eventually Ash defeated all of Cameron's Pokémon except Riolu. At the end of the episode, while battling Ash's Snivy, Cameron's Riolu evolved into a Lucario. The battle continued in A Unova League Evolution, where Lucario managed to first defeat Snivy, and later also Pikachu, eliminating Ash from the Conference. In the next round, Cameron battled against Virgil but lost, placing him on the top four. Later, after the closing ceremonies, Cameron bid farewell to Ash and his friends before going on his own way.
Cameron made cameo appearances in the ending Let's Join Hands and in the ending credits of Genesect and the Legend Awakened.
Character
Cameron is an energetic boy who likes to move at a fast pace. Like Barry, another of Ash's rivals, Cameron does not like to sit still and is always eager to train. Unfortunately, Cameron is notoriously bad at keeping track of time and numbers. For instance, in his debut episode he wanted to compete in the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup, but he arrived on the closing day of the tournament instead of the opening day. He was also late to register for the Vertress Conference, but luckily he was able to sign up anyway.
Cameron's mistakes with timing pale in comparison to his mistakes with numbers though. He originally thought that the number of Badges needed to qualify for the League was seven, and if Ash had not told him otherwise, he would likely have not been able to participate. Later, during the League Conference, he mistakenly thought that and the number of Pokémon used in a Full Battle was five, and so he only registered five Pokémon and brought them with him in the Vertress Conference. Due to this misunderstanding, he had to face Ash in a full battle one Pokémon short, but he emerged victorious despite it. He was shown to have good battling skills at other times too, such as during his battle with Marlon which won him the Wave Badge.
Cameron also seems to like taking risks, or just plain going for broke, even when unnecessary, like sending out Pokémon who are weak against his opponents. For example, in his battle with Ash, he sends out Ferrothorn against Pignite, despite its weakness to both of Pignite's types (especially Fire, which it has a double weakness to). He also sends out Swanna against Pikachu, despite its double weakness to Electric-type moves.

Cameron used Samurott in his Gym battle against Marlon's Mantine. During the battle, Samurott was proven to be very fast underwater and powerful as she was able to dodge all of Mantine's moves and also used her seamitar to counter Mantine's Bullet Seed and defeat it using a powerful Razor Shell, winning her trainer the Wave Badge.
In Mission: Defeat Your Rival!, Samurott battled Bianca's Escavalier, although Iron Defense was initially a problem, she overcame it with an internal shockwave caused by Razor Shell, defeating it. Then she battled Bianca's Emboar, and despite the type advantage, she was defeated after Emboar managed to successfully hit her with his Attract and finish her off with a powerful Hammer Arm.
Samurott was used to battle Ash in Cameron's Secret Weapon!. First she faced Pignite, which stood no chance against her, and was easily defeated with super effective Hydro Cannon and Aqua Jet attacks.
