Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

Plot

Similar to Pokémon Red and Green, this episode begins with Professor Oak introducing himself as well as the world of Pokémon. He explains that the world is inhabited by creatures known as Pokémon and that people use them as pets and for fights. After releasing an Eevee from its Pokéball, he invites the audience to the world of Pokémon.

The scene changes to a battle between a Gengar and Nidorino that is being watched by Red. His mom tells him that Professor Oak wants to see him in his lab. Excited, Red falls down the stairs but quickly gets back up and runs over to Professor Oak's lab. In front of the lab, Red meets up with Green, Professor Oak's grandson and Red's rival, who also was called down to the lab. They race in as Professor Oak greets them. He hands them both a Pokédex, a high-tech encyclopedia of Pokémon, which he's been working on. He asks them both to fulfill his dream of making a complete guide on all Pokémon.
