Ash's Donphan (Aura)

Ash's Donphan was another Pokémon obtained by Ash Calem Ketchum during his travels through Johto.

Personality and characteristics
As a Phanpy, it had many traits of a child being extremely playful, friendly and energetic. It at first thought everyone around it was playing, even in a serious situation. It was also easily frightened from not knowing how to handle damage. However, it matured after evolving into Donphan, much like his Bayleef did earlier. Sometimes, it was shown to have kept its friendly personality upon evolution. As a Phanpy, Donphan was initially one of Ash's weaker Pokémon, but it would gradually become stronger battle after battle. Donphan is generally loyal to Ash, and always tries its best for him in battles.
