A character of the day, often abbreviated as a COD or CotD, is a fan-made term given to a human (although sometimes Pokémon) character in the Pokémon anime, who appears in only one episode and is relatively unimportant to the series. A character is often featured alongside his or her Pokémon; usually that Pokémon is the subject of the episode in which it appears. Usually, at the end of most episodes where the character of the day is featured (if it's a friendly one), Ash or one of the other main characters promises to meet them again someday, though it usually never happens. Characters of the day can also be villains.
