Blue is a Pokémon Trainer from the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga who is obsessed with Ghost-type Pokémon and the color blue. He is one of Red's rivals.

History

Blue first appears in Get Rid Of The Ghost Pokémon!! at his mansion in Lavender Town. He meets Red while he was looking at the blue item collection Blue has. He became consumed with hatred towards Red after his Pokémon destroyed his blue item collection. Blue than calls out his Haunter to teach them a lesson. His Haunter was about to give out until it starts to evolve into a Gengar. Gengar appears to be much more of a stronger opponent than before. It turns out that Blue was using his Silph Scope to detect Gengar's movements. Clefairy takes the Silph Scope and Blue can no longer trace Gengar's steps, leaving him at a disadvantage. With the tables turned, Clefairy wins.

Blue reappears in Get The Flying Machine!! where he was fishing with his Blastoise. Blue taunts Red about his Pokémon and demonstrates with his Blastoise on how many fish they caught. When the motorcycle gang came by, Blue watched Red do all the work while he only used his Blastoise to trip the motorcycle gang. After Red deals with them, Blue races with him to the department store. Blue was able to win the race and got himself some jetpacks. He fled on his two Doduo and Blastoise along with Green and his Charizard.

Blue is seen watching a talent show but doesn't participate. However, he does participate in the Sports Meet.

He reappears in PM054 where he catches a Mewtwo who was created by Bill when Giovanni and his twin brother held him and his wife hostage and forced Bill to create the ultimate Pokémon back in Bring Down the Strongest Pokémon!!. In that same chapter, he ends up battling Red with his Raichu.

Personality

Blue is very interested in the color blue, hence the name. He will get upset at anyone who destroys his blue colored objects. Blue is similar to Red's other rival, Green, as they both taunt Red when they win.

Haunter → Gengar

Debut	Get Rid Of The Ghost Pokémon!!

Gengar first appeared as a Haunter challenging Clefairy. Haunter uses one of its illusion techniques to trick Clefairy into believing there was food. Afterwards, it challenges Clefairy to a battle. Even though Clefairy was about to win, Blue commands Haunter to not give up, causing it to evolve into Gengar. Gengar became a tougher opponent for Clefairy than before, as Clefairy was not able to withstand any of Gengar's attacks. However, the Silph Scope that Blue was holding was causing him to have the upper hand. Clefairy took the goggles from him and had the advantage, as it was able to dodge all of Gengar's attacks and put it to sleep.

Gengar's only known move is Scary Face.
