The identity of his father has remained unknown. One reference to him exists in the anime. During a phone conversation between Ash and his mother in the second episode, she states to her amazement that he got from Pallet Town to Viridian City in one day. "It took your father four days to get there when he started Pokémon training", she says, "He'll be so proud!". Using the present tense as she is suggests he is still known to Ash, so this puts several characters, including Giovanni, out of the running for his father. A line from the play, Pokémon Live!, suggests that when Deliah was a teenager, she had a relationship with Giovanni, but this is not considered canon. That same canon states someone else is Ash's father. I want to know who his father is.... it would help us see who ash takes after, and which gym leader he is, as well as what kind of pokemon ash should be more skilled in.
-_- **sigh** guess we'll never know....
