Pokémon has proven to be one of the most popular anime franchises of all time. Whether it is video games, made for TV movies or merchandise, it just continues to make money across the globe.
It’s staying power is unique in that even nearly three decades after its creation it is stronger than ever. Pokémon trainers come in all shapes and sizes with personalities that vary from energetic to paranoid. Let’s find out which MBTI® personality type our fans’ favorite Pokémon trainers are.
10 Drake: ENTJ
Those with the ENTJ personality type are natural-born leaders who are never complacent with their abilities. They always strive to reach new heights and achieve more glory.
This makes them ideal leaders who most often lead from the front lines instead of from the background. Until Ash came along, Drake, featured on Pokémon: Adventures on the Orange Islands, and his prized Pokémon Dragonite had never been defeated. Drake’s ENTJ personality took effect when after losing to Ash, he did so with respect and admiration towards his accomplished foe.
9 Alder: ISFP
ISFPs have a unique set of characteristics that define who they are and how they move towards their goals. They are often imaginative people who are sensitive to other’s feelings. Independent in nature and character, making them ideal for positions that allow for the user’s creativity to take charge.
In Pokémon: The Series: Black & White, Alder’s ISFP dress code is one of his more notable additions to his character. He is firmly loyal to where he is from and wishes to represent it to the best of his ability.
8 Red: INTJ
If there is one thing that INTJs are known for it is their curiosity and ability to sometimes over analyze situations. This personality trait can be their greatest strength and greatest weakness. Yet, their ability to accurately assess the situation allows them to outmaneuver their opponents since they are always one step ahead.
Red makes an appearance in the spin-off miniseries, Pokémon Origins. He shows his INTJ side with the curiosity of the creatures he controls. He doesn’t just want to use them, he wants to understand them to the best of his ability.
7 Diantha: ENFP
Those with an ENFP personality are not afraid to take charge if the moment arises, though they prefer to instead advocate for others more suited for the role to take their place. They are strong in will and character and will fight for their cause no matter the public’s opinion.
Diantha of Pokémon: X & Y is a great example of an ENFP who prefers to observe more than participate in the action unless given no choice. She neither seeks fame nor fortune, only observation.
6 Ash Ketchum: INTP
INTPs strive to find unique ways to solve problems. They tend to stray from the beaten path and instead seek to forge their own. Independent thinkers do not always think alike but that doesn’t mean that they hold different viewpoints from someone.
One of the more popular INTPs of the Pokémon series is Ash Ketchum. He might not always be the strongest but because of his strategic thinking, he is able to defeat foes greater than himself, thereby rising himself through the trainer’s ranks.
5 Giovanni: ENTJ
Like all personality types, there are some dark paths ENTJs can wander down if they are not careful. To an ENTJ, being the leader means everything, and if left unchecked it can lead them to be overbearing or intolerant of other’s opinions.
Giovanni is a prime example of an ENTJ gone wrong. His quest to be superior to other trainers has overtaken any sense of morality he has within him. He can only see the bottom line and isn’t afraid to cross any line that is necessary to win.
4 Professor Oak: ISTJ
Professor Oak is a great example of how an ISTJ behaves. A former Pokémon trainer turned professor and scientist, Professor Oak is a man who is capable of becoming anything that his heart desires.
He is a man who has a serious passion for learning and enjoys exploring these interests with new converts in the desired field. Professor Oak is a man who prefers to use his intellectual capabilities to further enhance others’ understanding of the Pokémon species as a whole.
3 Misty: ISFP
If there is one trait that ISFPs have it is being grounded in the moment. They don’t contemplate the events of what will happen down the road, instead, they focus on the job at hand. Those with this personality type are often kind and gentle towards others with a deep interest in the emotional aspects of their closest allies.
Misty exemplifies these ISFP traits as along with her companions, she seeks out adventure wherever it is found and does so with a vigorous excitement. She might not always be kind and gentle toward Ash and Brock, but she certainly is when it comes to her Pokémon team.
2 Brock: ISFJ
Those with an ISFJ personality tend to be level-headed in almost everything they do. They have to be, since, at times, they are the only adults in the room when a squabble takes place. Oftentimes those with this personality are characteristically nurturing and have steady hands during times of crisis.
Brock’s ISFJ side comes out often as even in the worst of situations he remains calm, keeping himself grounded in a firm belief that he can overcome anything. He also often acts like a surrogate parent to Ash, Misty, May, Max, and Dawn. This may have something to do with his having to step up and raise his younger siblings when their father temporarily walked out on them.
1 Whitney: ESFP
ESFPs are always the life of the party. They do not just like attending social events, they want to be the main show during these events. That is precisely what makes them one of the warmest of all the personality types as ESFPs just don’t see people as strangers.
Whitney of Pokémon: The Johto Journeys shows off her ESFP side with her persistent energy bursts. She might be forgetful but because of her encouraging nature, she never finds herself in a hole that she feels like she can’t get out of.
