Ritchie mentioned in Oaknapped! that he and Ash tend to catch the same Pokémon.
Ritchie's design is similar to Red from Generation I, he is a pallette anime swap for Red, the different Red clothes are Red & White Jacket, Shoes, and Hat, while having blue pants, Ritchie has Blue & Yellow Hat, Green Jacket, Pants, possibly Blue, Green, or Purple Shoes, the point this that he wear the outfit as Red do in Generation I not Generation III on Generation I.
