Goh is a stylish, cool-headed boy with a confident demeanor and a hot competitive streak. Goh's personality contrasts much with Ash's, starting with their objectives: while Ash loves battles and seeks to be a Pokémon Master, Goh loves to capture new Pokémon and seeks to complete the Pokédex.

In " To Train, or Not to Train!", Goh dons the male uniform of his school which consists of a blue and white shirt with a yellow tie, a white pair of shorts with a dark blue anchor motif on both sides. He has a pair of black swim trunks, similar to what Ash wore in Alola, with red stripes instead of white. His outfit consists of a red and grey short-sleeved top with a Poké Ball design, black sweatpants, red socks, and a pair of grey and black shoes.ĭuring the Darkest Day arc, Goh receives a Dynamax Band which he wears on his right wrist. He has messy black hair with two red highlights, tan skin, and blue eyes.
Goh is a skinny young boy that has a slightly androgynous appearance.
