Forrester Franklin (Japanese: タクマ・イチロー Ichirō Takuma) is a one-time character in the Pok&eacute;mon anime who appeared in the episode All in a Day&#039;s Wurmple. Forrest Franklin is Forrester&#039;s identical twin brother; Forrester is distinguished by his orange t-shirt and a mole on the right side of his face. His Japanese voice actress is Makoto Tsumura and his English voice actor is Andrew Rannells.    Forrest was born around Rustboro City. In the episode, he has just returned there after traveling with his Pok&eacute;mon for a long time.    When Forrester first met Ash, he asked for a battle as he was impressed by Pikachu&#039;s strength. He taught Ash about double battles and they held the first double battle in the anime since the introduction of the concept to the games in Pok&eacute;mon Ruby and Sapphire (though the anime had previously featured one in Pok&eacute;mon Double Trouble). Forrester&#039;s Ariados and Yanma used many combination attacks to provide a threat but were still defeated by Ash&#039;s Pikachu and Treecko. This defeat made Forrester realize that he still had a lot more work to do on his battle skills.    Forrester joined the group for lunch where he was reunited with Forrest. When Forrest announced his decision to travel, Forrester promised that he would watch over the forest for him.     Bulbapedia

After participating in the Johto League, Ash decides to begin anew in yet another journey; this time by himself and Pikachu, in the land of Hoenn. Though he isn't alone for long, as 10-year-old May (whom dislikes Pokemon, but just wants to come along to see the world) travels with him after Pikachu destroys her bicycle. Ash also meets up with his old companion, Brock, and May's younger brother, Max. Together, they travel along in Hoenn, battling Gym Leaders, entering Contests, and other events on the way to the Hoenn League. <br><br>
