'''Gold''' is the first new trainer featured in the ''Gold and Silver'' arc of [[Pokémon Adventures]].

Gold is a young boy with black hair that has a quiff, fair skin, and yellow-gold coloured eyes, usually wearing his goggles over his hats.

==Background==
 
Hailing from [[New Bark Town]], the boy is incredibly athletic and lives in a house full of various [[Pokémon]]. Because of this, the neighbors have dubbed him “The Pokémon boy”. He started with the Pokémon [[Cyndaquil]]. His birth date is July 21. His blood type is B. Sampling popular foods from different places is his interest. Skateboarding and Billiards are his skills. Volcanic Steak is his favorite food.
 
 
==Personality==
 
==Personality==
As the reader becomes acquainted with Gold, one finds he’s a kind-hearted but very hot-headed young man who doesn’t seem to think things over well. When he first met [[Bugsy]], he mistook him for a female and asked him out for tea. He also asked [[Jasmine]], the [[Olivine City]] [[Gym Leader]] out on a date once. He also touched [[Green]]'s bottom by accident when he was trying to pat her on the back, igniting [[Silver (Adventures)|Silver]]'s anger. For some reason when he first met [[Crystal (Adventures)|Crystal]] he did not get along with her and when Crystal took the burnt food that he gave to her, he said that the blackness of the food matches her personality. Also at the end of the saga he flirted with [[Yellow (Adventures)|Yellow]], not knowing that she was a year older, until Crystal showed him the information about Yellow. Besides being a protagonist of the manga series, he also serves as comic relief (mostly due to his flirtatious nature, his nicknaming or his habit of not recognizing several characters who are famous or he met in person before.)

Gold, Pokémon Adventures: Volume 13

Gold is the first new trainer featured in the Gold and Silver arc of Pokémon Adventures.

Appearance

Gold is a young boy with black hair that has a quiff, fair skin, and yellow-gold coloured eyes, usually wearing his goggles over his hats.

Gold and Silver arc

This section, or a part of it, has been transcluded from Ethan; any changes involving it should be made there instead. / 

He wears a backwards-cap with the back being mustard yellow and the front being black with a red Poké ball logo (according to art showing the front of his hat), a red hoodie with white hood, white kangaroo pocket, and a white non-functional zipper detail, a black T-shirt underneath, and yellow shorts with black sides. On the righthand side of his hoodie, Ethan sports a Poké Ball holster. His footwear consists of sneakers—colored red, white, black, and yellow—paired with short red socks. To carry his items, he hefts around a bulky backpack, which is typically shown as white with a red Poké Ball design on the front pocket.

HeartGold and SoulSilver arc

He wears a red hoodie with a collar, white non-functional zipper detail and white hood, black shorts, red and white sneakers, and a gray satchel. The cap's appearance remains mostly faithful to the original, but now theres a mustard yellow line on the cap from front and back, resembling an Ultra Ball. His hair is also now Mulled Wine color.

Personality

Hailing from New Bark Town, Gold is incredibly athletic and lives in a house full of various Pokémon. As the reader becomes acquainted with Gold, one finds he's a kind-hearted but very hot-headed young man who doesn't seem to think things over well. However, when telling Emerald about getting Jirachi, he showed more of a serious personality, which is unlike of him. When he first met Bugsy, he mistook him for a female and asked him out for tea. He also asked Jasmine, the Olivine City Gym Leader out on a date once. He plays with his skateboard while his Pokémon competes. For some reason when he first met Crystal he did not get along with her, saying she was too serious, and when he gave her burnt food he said that the blackness of the food matches her personality. Besides being a protagonist of the manga series, he also serves as comic relief (mostly due to his flirtatious nature, his nicknaming or his habit of not recognizing several characters who are famous or he met in person before.)

Gold's special skill is Pokémon hatching and is known as the "Hatcher".
