Alex Davis hails from Cherrygrove City and showed up as a character of the day in the episode "Power Play!" He's best known for challenging Gary Oak to a Pokémon battle—a match that didn't go his way. Gary beat him pretty decisively, with Alex using his Alakazam against Gary's team. The battle happened to catch the attention of Ash, Misty, and Brock, who were passing through at just the right (or wrong) moment, which ended up sparking another encounter between Ash and his rival Gary.
