He’s the underdog who beat Tobias’s Latios, who stood up to Mewtwo, who made it to the Masters Eight. If a gag character like Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo can be top tier, Ash Ketchum absolutely deserves a slot. Today, JUS has a passionate fan translation and a thriving competitive scene on Kaillera. And yes—there are sprite edits. Someone has already modded Ash’s face over Medaka Box ’s Medaka. Someone else made a full Pikachu skin over Kochikame ’s Ryotsu.

The latter, a Japanese-exclusive 2D platform fighter, was a love letter to Shonen Jump’s 40-year history. Goku, Luffy, Naruto, and Ichigo duked it out on pixel-perfect recreations of iconic manga panels.
But there was always a ghost in the machine. A fan-made myth. A name whispered on GameFAQs forums: .

While Pokémon the games existed, the anime was the primary vehicle for Ash. This disqualified him instantly. Goku is from the Dragon Ball manga; Luffy from One Piece . Ash is an anime-original protagonist (Red is the manga equivalent, and Red did get a support Koma in Jump Super Stars ).
