In the remakes of the original games, [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]], Koga is once again a [[Gym Leader]], as it takes place during the same time period. The only difference is the level of his [[Weezing]], and his updated appearance.

Koga appeared in the episode [[Episode 032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]], where [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] and company stumble across his Gym. Not appearing until later in the episode, Ash can only find a plethora of hidden traps within the gym, and then later Koga's sister [[Aya (Kanto)|Aya]]. After the appearance of Koga and a small incident with [[Team Rocket#Jessie, James and Meowth|Team Rocket]], Koga and Ash finally have their battle, uninterrupted.
 
The two have a one-on-one battle, with Ash using his [[Ash's Charizard|Charmander]], and Koga using his [[Golbat]]. Initially having some trouble, [[Charmander]] was unable to hit the [[Golbat]], but after using [[Fire Spin]], Ash was the victor. Upon leaving Koga rewarded Ash with the [[Soul Badge]].

==Trivia==
In a Pokémon card related to Koga, called Koga's Ninja Trick, there is a symbol that looks similar to a Swastika. However, it is actually totally different, in positioning and in meaning. A Swastika is in a diamond angle, and the points on it point clockwise; the symbol depicted on the card was in a square angle, and the points were counter clockwise. The symbol on the card was of a different culture and was many years before the Nazi Party, and meant "peace". When the card was released in the U.S., it was changed to a different symbol.

Fwahahaha! A mere child like you dares to challenge me? The very idea make me shiver with mirth! Very well, I shall show you true terror as a ninja master. Poison brings steady doom. Sleep renders foes helpless. Despair to the creeping horror of Poison-type POKéMON!

Koga served as the Gym Leader at the Fuchsia City Gym. Two years later, during the Generation II games, Koga also became a member of the Elite Four and his daughter, Janine took over his gym and used Poison Type Pokémon as well.

He specializes in Poison-type Pokémon, and as a Gym Leader gave out the Soul Badge for trainers that could defeat him.

Red, Green, Blue & Yellow

Koga first appears in the games as the Fuchsia City Gym Leader. His gym was constructed with an array of invisible walls, fashioned into a maze. This forces the player to walk through the maze fighting Gym members, with the destination in the middle where Koga awaits.

Gold, Silver & Crystal

Later, in the Generation II games, Koga has been promoted to Elite Four status. With the absence of a Gym Leader at Fuchsia Gym, Koga leaves the Gym under his daughter's care, Janine, making her the new Gym Leader.

FireRed & LeafGreen

In the remakes of the original games, Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Koga is once again a Gym Leader, as it takes place during the same time period. The only difference is the level of his Weezing, and his updated appearance.
