Character
Tracey enjoys sketching Pokémon and uses this skill as a Pokémon watcher. He meets Ash and Misty in the third episode of the Orange Island saga and decides to travel with them when he finds out that they're friends with Professor Oak, his idol.
Although no details are known about his past, Tracey does has a very broad knowledge about Pokémon. This has helped the three of them in their journey many times along the way. Like Brock, he seems to have a soft spot for pretty girls. However, Tracey is more self-conscious and doesn't go overboard about them as Brock does. He expresses in interest by simply drawing them.
Since The Rivalry Revival, Tracey lives with Professor Oak in Pallet Town, where he serves as his assistant. He occasionally visits the Cerulean City Gym, either to run an errand for Professor Oak or invited by Misty's older sister, Daisy.
He is very reserved and gentle person and has a hard time saying no to anyone. This is most predominate in his relationship with Daisy, who uses him often to help out with her chores. While taking care of the Pokemon in the Oak Corral Tracey has befriended many of the Pokémon that reside there, particularly Ash's Bayleef.

Trivia
- Tracey is the only one of Ash's companions and main protagonist in which there is no information about where he's from or who his family is. Though a lot of people suspect he's from somewhere in the Orange Islands, there is really no proof that his home town is located there.
- Tracey has the shortest amount of airtime out of all of Ash's companions.
- It is thought that his Japanese name, Kenji, is based on the name of Ken Sugimori, the graphics design lead for the Pokémon games.
- The ji element in Kenji may be 二, second (son), which could be taken to mean that he has an older brother.
