Tracey Sketchit

Tracey Sketchit (Kenji) is a Pokémon watcher who takes Brock's place during the time he spends with Professor Ivy.

Biography
Tracey is a talented sketch artist and is often seen sketching Pokemon while on his journey with Ash and Misty. He conciders himself a "Pokemon watcher," much like Professor Oak who watches and studies pokemon. Whenever the group find a town that has a new Pokemon or new tradition that has to do with Pokemon, Tracey always makes the group stop and stay so he can sketch it.

When the group returned to Pallet Town after their adventures, Tracey learned that he would be meeting the "great" Professor Oak. This made Tracey nervous and shaky because he thought of Professor Oak as the most knowledgable and greatest professor in the world. He even spent several minutes sorting out his sketches so he would see which ones Professor Oak would like. When he finally met Professor Oak, he gave him all of his sketches and watched him intently to see what his reaction was. At the end of the episode, Professor Oak revealed that he loved Tracey's sketches and thinks that he is a wonderful artist. Tracey then told Ash and Misty that he would no longer be traveling with them and that he would be staying with Professor Oak and become his pupil from now on. Ash and Misty were shocked for a moment, but right after that, Brock said that he was joining back in the group, which made up the original group again.

Since then, Tracey has been seen rarely behind Professor Oak in his office when Ash calls him.
