Hop

Hop in the Pokémon anime (specifically Pokémon Journeys: The Series) is the younger brother of the undefeated Galar Champion Leon. He appears as a supporting character later in the series, often shown in connection to his brother and the Galar region.

He's portrayed as an energetic, enthusiastic, and determined young trainer with a cheerful and supportive personality. Hop looks up greatly to Leon and is proud of his brother's achievements, though his role in the anime is more limited compared to the games—he doesn't serve as a major rival or have extensive battles like in Sword and Shield. Instead, he tends to appear in contexts cheering on Leon or involved in lighter, family-oriented moments.

Physically, he has warm brown skin, expressive golden/yellow eyes, dark purple hair styled in a distinctive tousled wave, and a youthful, lively look that matches his spirited vibe. Overall, the anime keeps him as a bright, positive presence tied to Galar's champion legacy, but with far less screen time and development than his game counterpart.
