That image looks like more for fun than about serious differences, apart from one or two facts in it. :P

B.T.W I prefer the Japanese version just because it is not censored.
For example: real death appears much more realistic, And bigger b***s. :X

The image is mostly right, but referring to the first pokemon-movie, Ash had way more than 10 Pokémon :D.

@HashiramaSenju In the English scanlations Koga's arbok survived though. He regenerated himself and was just fine after that.

<p>In Pokémon, we have two main characters:</p>

<ul>
<li>Red, who is the main protagonist on the manga and the first Pokémon games (Red, Blue and Yellow)</li>
<li>Ash, who is the main protagonist on the anime.</li>
</ul>

<p>What are the differences between the two?</p>

In Blue version, his name is [Blue](http://youtu.be/-2gVD79criY?t=2m12s).  Your rival is named Red.

@David I'm not speaking about the games. I'm speaking about the anime / manga.

Your question says "and the first Pokémon games", but since you can make any name you want it makes sense to standardize somehow.

In Pokémon, we have two main characters:

* Red, who is the main protagonist on the manga and the first Pokémon games (Red, Blue and Yellow)
* Ash, who is the main protagonist on the anime.

What are the differences between the two?

There are **lots**!

![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/Mv6SW.jpg)

For starters, Red is character who just starred in manga/games, and manga created only after a TV series aired.

As a result, they decided to release two types of manga, one based on the show and one based on the games:

* The manga based on games R/B/G/Y, called Pokémon Adventures, which continues the story until the third generation stages.
* And manga based on the series, called Pokémon The Electric Of Pikachu!
