Pokemon: Every Team Red Has Had In The Games, Ranked

As the first-ever playable character in the Pokemon series, Red has become an iconic figure within the Pokemon series’ fandom as well as its overall mythos. Having maintained his popularity over the years, Red might very well be the most easily recognized non-Pokemon of the entire series. Red also served as the inspiration for the anime’s main character, Ash Ketchum, and so his influence on the series in the decades since its first release is clear through his presence in various games, spin-offs, and merchandise.
