Cameron (Japanese: コテツ Kotetsu) is a recurring character in the Pokémon anime who first appeared in Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure! and a rival of Ash Ketchum.
History
Cameron first appeared as Ash, Iris, Cilan, and Dawn were leaving the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup. 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 next episode, 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 travelled to 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 and Bianca, Stephan and Virgil walked past his tent and met up with him, he heard from the others he was almost too late to sign in. Ash hurried with him to the registration counter and was just in time. In the first round he battled with his Ferrothorn against Kenō 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 in 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 BW107. He had a good start with his Hydreigon taking out two of Ash's Pokémon. Ash managed to take control of the battle however. At the end of the episode, while battling Ash's Snivy, Cameron's Riolu evolved into a Lucario. The battle continued in BW108, 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.
Character
Cameron is often forgetful at times and careless with numbers. He would arrive at a certain location at a later time. In two instances, he wanted to compete in Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup but arrived during the end of the tournament and during the Vertress Conference. However, he managed to narrowly make it to the registration counter during the latter. He also thought that the number of Badges to qualify for the League was seven and the number of Pokémon used in Full Battle was five. Despite this, Cameron was shown to have good battling skills as shown with his battle with Marlon as he managed to defeat him and win the Wave Badge.

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 and after a hard fought battle she defeated 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 finished her off with a powerful Hammer Arm.
Samurott was used to battle Ash in BW107. First she faced Pignite, which stood no chance against her, and was easily defeated with super effective Hydro Cannon and Aqua Jet attacks. However, Ash's next Pokémon, Pikachu, was too fast for Samurott, and she was finally taken down by an Iron Tail.
