Gou is Ash’s new traveling companion in the Pokémon anime and fans have loved the unique dynamic that they have shared so far. He has a more personal relationship with Ash than previous traveling partners because it is just the two of them traveling around together and it is a nice change of pace from the multiple companions that Ash had in the Sun and Moon series.
Gou has quickly risen to be one of the best companions that Ash has ever had and because of this fans have been drawing a bunch of art of him. Without further ado, here are the 10 best pieces of fan art that have ever been created for this interesting new companion!
10 Gou And Rotomdex
This picture shows the character with his Rotomdex in his hand and they are probably having a conversation about different kinds of Pokémon. The two of them make a good team in the anime and this picture only highlights that fact which is great because not a lot of fan art does.
More fan art such as this one should be created in the future because Rotomdex and Gou are so cute together. This is a cute picture and it comes from Ninduwu.draws.
9 Playful Gou And Ash
Ash and Gou have become fast friends in the anime and fans can’t get enough of seeing them together on adventures. This photo shows the two of them goofing off, probably while resting from their adventures and it’s adorable.
There is no shortage of cute Ash and Gou pictures and this happens to be one of the best out there. These two are best friends and it is evident in this picture by Cosmic_crossings.
8 Gou Eating
Gou is adorable in this picture it appears that he is riding on a train and eating some kind of food. Every character needs to eat so depictions such as this one help add realism to the sometimes unrealistic characters.
It’s a cute picture and most fans adore art like this because it helps make the character seem more human. Thank you for this amazing piece of art Aichanpng!
7 Gou And Ash Mad And Happy
The unique thing about this piece of fan art is that it has two depictions of the friends together, one where they’re angry at each other and one where they’re playing in a friendly manner. Most pictures only show one type of emotion within them which is why this is such a unique piece of art.
Everyone needs to see this picture at least once if they’re a fan of Ash or Gou because it is quite the heartwarming picture when they go from being angry at each other to laughing at themselves. Both of these depictions are very creative, thanks Lyslynne!
6 Adult Ash And Gou
This picture shows older versions of the two friends and considering that ash has been 10 years old for 20 years it’s great to see him grow up a bit with Gou. Perhaps they will stick together longer than previous traveling companions Ash that has had but only time will tell.
The most notable thing about this picture is Gou and how much more mature he looks as a young adult. Another great thing about this picture is that it manages to keep their appearance very similar to what they are in the anime currently, just older. This adorable picture comes courtesy of Zuyurio.
5 Gou And Scorbunny Sketch
This sketch shows Gou and his Pokémon partner looking like they’re about to get into a battle and the Pokémon trainer looks quite confident that he will win. It’s great to see such confidence out of one of the main characters and fans can’t get enough of fan art pictures similar to this one.
Scorbunny looks so happy to be with his trainer and that just adds to the atmosphere of this already heartwarming picture. This sketch is beautiful and the artist behind it is Lying.bird.
4 Gou Hugging Raboot
When Gou’s partner evolved into a Raboot it was one of the best moments of the new anime series so far. It was something that fans had been hoping to happen for a while and it was the happiest moment that fans had ever seen Gou.
This picture shows them together and although Raboot looks awkward because of the hug it’s still an adorable piece of fan art that every fan needs to see. This is a cute picture by Kudryavka2626.
3 Confident Gou
The confident smirk on Gou’s face shows that he is ready to catch them all! Gou looks as if he’s ready to defeat any challenge that comes his way and this smirk shows that expression perfectly.
Fans can also see Scorbunny in this picture off to the side and it adds to the picture’s general attitude. This wonderful piece of fan art was created by Shushu.kat.
2 Ash, Gou, And Riolu
In the new Pokémon series, Ash has already caught so many strong pokemon including a Riolu. This picture shows the trio walking together with the baby Pokémon and there couldn’t be a cuter display that a fan could draw.
The three of them are infatuated with each other and fans are sure that Riolu will grow into a powerful Lucario for Ash to use to defeat Leon. Gou is one of the main features of this piece of fan art and it wouldn’t be the same if he weren’t in it to liven things up. This friendly piece of fan art was created by Sun_supernova.
1 Gou Ready For Battle
This amazing hand-drawn piece of art shows Gou ready for battle with a Pokéball in his hand. It’s one of the stronger looking pictures of fan art for Gou out there and that is because of how powerful he looks within the drawing.
The unique art style and the hand-drawn strokes make this one of the best pieces of fan art for this character that’s ever been created and as such it deserves the top spot on this list. Killerxkingx drew this amazing piece of art!
