Ryker Ketchum (Japanese: 柏木竜一郎 Kashiwagi Ryūichirō) better known as Red is one of the major supporting characters of CureKurogane's series, Pokémon Prism. Ryker is Ash's father and Delia's husband, who had left the family to pursue his dream of becoming the greatest Pokemon trainer and has since succeeded. He met Ash for the first time in years after catching him in the city, for he had missed being there for him when he grew up and felt like a 'failure' as a father, only to have Ash tell him that he still loved him, no matter what.
