**Aaron Ketchum I** (キャチテムアーロン, *Kyatchitemu Arlon*?) is one of the main characters of the first season. He is a 10 year-old boy from Kanto who is the future hero of legends concerning the lands surrounding Rota.

## Bio

### Appearance

Aaron has spiky dark blue hair and blue *tsurime* eyes. His Harmony Mark is an azure blue star with a flame-like darker blue tail.

As a civilian, he wears a dark blue robe-like garment like most of the others, with a bright azure blue shirt underneath and bright blue pants. He has black loafer shoes.

As a Guardian of Harmony, he wears his canon Aura Guardian outfit, except that the bag is removed, his Elemaximum Gauge is located on his right hip, and his Harmony Gem, shaped like a small flame, is located on his right fist. Because of this, his eyes and hair don't change, and he has no wings.

### Personality

Aaron is regarded as a selfless figure in the Multiverse's history. As a result, his qualities of strength and courage continue to be celebrated in Rota's annual Guardian of the Aura festival. Lucar initially thought otherwise when he first emerged from his scepter, though he later came to understand the circumstances behind his former mentor's sacrifice and regained his respect for Aaron.

Lucar's reflections revealed further insight into Aaron's affable personality. He is vigilant in his Aura training and extremely dedicated to the cause of peace. Aaron takes time out of his training to relax, which he says will help him remain focused and composed in his line of duty. He also doesn't take kindly to seeing Victoria and Arcturus getting teased over their relationship with each other, as he always warns Joy every time she is the cause.

### Relationships

* **Victoria Daisy**: Aaron sees Victoria as his very close friend, much like how Nanette will see Jim as her very close friend in the present day.

## Magical Abilities

In his Guardian of Harmony form, Aaron possesses enhanced physical abilities such as speed, strength, agility, and invulnerability to physical damage. His powers evolve around aura, allowing him to infuse it into attacks such as kicks or punches, use pure spheres of it to deliver devastating blows, or sense exactly where a living thing is located even with his eyes closed, making it impossible to sneak up on him in battle. His magic aura is dark blue in color.

## Guardian of Harmony

Aaron is the Guardian of Aura, his Elemental type is Psychic/Fighting and his Element of Harmony is Magic. His theme color is dark blue, and his weapon is a staff.

### Transformation

Aaron holds his Harmony Gem and shouts "Miracle Engage!", causing the Gem to glow and activate. He then puts the Harmony Gem close to his Power Necklace and as soon as the Necklace activates as well, the screen is engulfed in a white light.

### Attacks

* Aura Pulse Wave - Aaron's main purification finisher.
* Meditation Strike - A damaging sub-attack of his.

## Analysis Card Profile

The Guardian of Aura, with a selfless nature. He is usually calm and studious and is dedicated to mastering Aura, but can sometimes come off as emotionless or stoic. However, he very much cares for his friends and especially Lucar. His Element of Harmony is Magic.

## Trivia

* Unlike his original canon counterpart, he actually caught his Lucario, who is first shown as a Riolu.
