You!
Ash Ketchum is a 10-year-old who dreams of becoming the world's greatest Pokemon trainer. However, on the morning he was to get his first Pokemon, he accidentally oversleeps and is late in getting to the lab of Professor Oak, who is Pallet Town's Pokemon expert and who was to give him his Pokemon. He discovers that the only Pokemon left for him is Pikachu, an electric mouse, but Ash likes him so much that he chooses him. Pikachu, however, is very uncooperative, and refuses to help him capture Pokemon.

While trying to capture Pokemon in a field, Ash angers a Spearow, a very violent Pokemon, and its flock chases Ash and Pikachu, injuring the poor electric mouse. Pikachu calls down an electric beam to disperse the Spearows when he realizes that Ash is ready to give his life to save him, and through this ordeal Pikachu and Ash become the best of friends.

Emergency! Ash arrives at the Viridian Pokemon Center just in the nick of time to save Pikachu who was badly injured by the Spearow flock. While in the waiting room, the girl from whom he ah, "borrowed" her bike shows up, angry that it's now a heap of junk, but when Ash lets her know that his Pikachu is in the operating room, she's just as concerned as he is. Pikachu recovers successfully thanks to the Pokemon Center's nurse, but as Ash and Misty are about to spend some time with Pikachu, a gang of Pokemon thieves shows up, wanting to steal the Center's rare Pokemon! The thieves are Jessie, James and Meowth of Team Rocket, and their Pokemon Ekans and Koffing cause a lot of damage to the Pokemon Center. Ash and the girl try to attack with the Pokemon Center's Pokemon, but they get defeated easily. They finally drive Team Rocket away thanks to Pikachu, but the Pokemon Center gets destroyed in the process, although all of the Viridian Pokemon stay safe.

Ash
Catches a
Pokemon!

Ash, Misty and Pikachu arrive in Viridian Forest, where Ash finds Caterpie, a Pokemon of the Insect element. Caterpie tries to be friendly with Misty, but she's scared of bugs, so she chases them away. Later on, Caterpie and Pikachu are "talking" together while Misty and Ash sleep, and Caterpie thinks that if he manages to evolve into Butterfree that Misty would like him.

The next day, Ash finds Pidgeotto, a higher evolution of Pidgey; he sends Caterpie to weaken it but Caterpie is easily defeated. Pikachu weakens Pidgeotto by shocking it, and Ash captures it. Then out of the blue, Team Rocket appears, wanting to capture Pikachu; Pikachu gets blinded by Koffing's sludge attack, but Caterpie, weakened from the battle with Pidgeotto, manages to defeat Team Rocket and their Pokemon, and it evolves into Metapod.

Samurai's
Challenge

Still in Viridian Forest, Ash is trying to catch a Weedle, another insect-element Pokemon, when a strange samurai challenges him to a trainer's duel. During the fight, the Weedle manages to escape and has a swarm of Beedrils, Pokemon that have evolved from Weedles, attack Ash and Misty. They capture Ash's Metapod and they bring him to a part of the forest where the trees are full of Beedrils, Weedles and Kakunas, and Ash can't get close enough to save his Pokemon.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket is still trying to get Ash's Pikachu, but Ash manages to defeat them (again) after saving his Metapod. Metapod evolves into Butterfree, his highest evolution, and puts the attacking Beedrils and Team Rocket to sleep with his Sleep Powder. The samurai who challenged him congratulates him on his victory, even though he feels that Ash isn't quite experienced enough. Now they're on their way to Pewter City, where Ash's first real challenge will appear...

Showdown
in Pewter
City

Ash and Misty arrive in Pewter City, where Ash challenges the local Gym Leader, Brock, to try to win a badge from him. Pikachu easily gets beaten by Brock's Onix, a huge rock serpent, and he leaves the Gym with disappointment. Flint, a man that Ash met outside Pewter City, shows him that Brock is a very good Pokemon Trainer, but he can't participate in any championships because he has to stay and take care of his ten brothers and sisters. With Flint's help, he manages to super-charge Pikachu, and they challenge Brock again.

During the battle, Pikachu's electrical attacks accidentally set fire to the rafters and turns on the sprinkler system. Water makes Rock-Element Pokemon weak, but Ash refuses to defeat Brock, since he says that it's not fair that the sprinklers turned on. With Misty following behind them, Ash and Pikachu leave Pewter City, but Brock catches up to him and offers him the Boulder Badge as a token of good Pokemon training. Flint is revealed as being Brock's father, and he promises to take care of his children while Brock goes out in the world with Misty, Pikachu and Ash.

Oh, and if anyone was wondering about that trap that Team Rocket tried to set for our heroes? Well, they fell into it, and they manage to get out at the end. (Aw. ^^;)
