Satoshi first appears in Prologue: Pallet Town, beginning his journey on the same day as Shigeru. He starts off with Charmander, Shigeru with Squirtle. They have their first battle, which Satoshi wins.
Satoshi obtains all eight Badges and challenges the Pokémon League, where he sweeps through the Elite Four quickly and defeats his rival, Shigeru, who already beat the Elite Four, for the final time.
Satoshi pushes Shigeru out of the way of a falling pillar, damaged in their last battle by Shigeru's Blastoise, and the two renew their friendship, pledging to capture Mewtwo together.

Trivia
- He shares his name with Ash Ketchum from the Pokémon anime. However, he is based on Red, not Ash, so his name actually comes from the optional names from the game. A similar situation applies to Shigeru, Satoshi's rival and Haruka from Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪.
- Satoshi suffers a complete loss to Shigeru in their second rematch; despite the comic being based almost entirely on the games, this situation actually runs counter to them, because, in the games, victory is necessary to proceed.
- Unlike Ash's Pikachu, Satoshi's Pikachu voluntarily uses a Thunderstone on itself in order to evolve into Raichu; this is in preparation for the battles against the Elite Four.
- Satoshi is Red's only counterpart to own a Pikachu, and permanently evolve it into Raichu.
