Trip

Trip is a male character from the series, Pokémon: Black &amp; White. While traveling to take on the Unova League, Trip enjoys taking photographs of Pokémon that he sees and he is known to be a Pokémon Photographer. It is unknown if he is based on a Pokémon Black and White character like Cilan or if he is completely original to the anime. In the preview for To the Unova Region! Zekrom's Shadow!, he is shown to have a Pokémon using Leaf Storm, most likely a Snivy. Trip has been shown to care for his Pokémon but is quite obnoxious, much like Gary Oak.

Biography
He seems to battle Ash's Pikachu, against his Snivy in the first episode. He becomes the victor in that battle possibly because Pikachu was unable to use any electric attacks, although, its Iron Tail and Quick Attack was pretty powerful. It might be because of his attitude, he becomes Ash's rival in the Black & White series.
