Green (Japanese: グリーン Green) is Red's main rival in Pokémon Pocket Monsters. He is based on Blue from the original Pokémon Red and Green. His full name is Kai Midorikawa (Japanese: 緑川 開 Kai Midorikawa), which contains the Japanese word for "green" (緑 midori).
History
Kanto
Green first debuted when he bumped into Red, whom he immediately recognized. The two Trainers have a race to get to Professor Oak's Laboratory, as they end up starting on their Pokémon journey the same day. Green was able to get to the lab first as Red got caught up with a Nidoran♂. In the lab, Green chose a Charmander with a fierce personality. Afterwards, he began his journey. Green ends up catching ten more Pokémon simultaneously. When he reached the Pokémon Center after Red rushed his Clefairy there, he showed Red eight Pokémon out of the ten that he caught as opposed to Red's only one catch. He watched Red heal his Clefairy from outside and had his Charmander fling a bug at the Pokémon Center where Red is in order to annoy him. Green went to the Pewter Gym sometime during Red's arrival to Pewter City where he and his Charmander got overwhelmed by Brock's Pokémon's strength. He left the Gym and told Red to be careful when facing Brock.
After Red's challenge with Brock, Green showed up in Red's campsite, catching a Golbat that was attacking Clefairy. Green turned around and left, mocking Red in the process. He joined Red in the search for the legendary Pokémon, Mew after it took the Moon Stone from Misty. Green continued the search with Red, and it was a long one, until Charmander ran past Red as it was able to find Mew. Green found it in an abandoned water mill where it was revealed to be run by Bill and his assistant who is in fact a human in disguise as a Mew. However, Green, not noticing this, threw a Poké Ball at Bill's assistant, but Bill blocked his Ball from catching Mew. This caused Clefairy to battle Charmander. During the battle, Charmander immediately went to its Charizard stage, leaving Clefairy at a disadvantage. Bill shrunk Charizard but accidentally shrank Clefairy as well in one of his machines. Green then gave up in catching Mew. As soon as both of the transformed subjects change back, Bill's hideous appearance caused Green and Red to run away. Afterwards, Green and Red went their separate ways.
Green met up with Red in the Vermilion City Pokémon Center after Red healed his Pikachu and Clefairy. Green was unconvinced about Red's progress, and Professor Oak has a talk with both of them. When Red was punched by a boxing glove, Green walked off, laughing at him.
He goes to a department store to buy items in order to make his Pokémon stronger. He briefly tells Red about what happened after Clefairy foils the robbery. In the Celadon Game Corner, he went up to Red in a suit mocking him about how he wouldn't become good at the slot machines. However, this changed when Pikachu was able to get three 7's in a row. As a result, Green turns around and leaves.
Red encountered him at a restaurant and they get into a skirmish. Professor Oak contacts him and Red and tells them about a legendary bird Pokémon residing in Seafoam Islands. Green goes there immediately and finds a cave. He trains Red as soon as he gets there in order for them to capture Articuno. Green encounters the Articuno but gets frozen by it, leaving Red to handle the situation on his own. After Articuno is caught, Green and the others are freed.
He obtained a flying machine and informs Red about another one nearby. After Blue beat Red in getting the flying machine, Green flies on his Charizard with both rivals telling Red about him not having anything for flight transportation. Green participated in the No. 1 Pokémon contest using his Meowth. Green's performance starts by having Meowth throw coins to the audience and then evolves into Persian. Persian then devolves back into a Meowth. The judges give him good comments about the performance. He participates in three other events afterwards, notably the baseball match.
On Cinnabar Island, Green, in the form of a shadowy figure, picks at a lock in which Red and his Pokémon mistaken him as a thief and Clefairy whams him with a bat. Green clears up the situation by pointing to a sign on the door which was part of Blaine's quiz challenges. As Green was about to open the lock, Clefairy pushed him aside and used a hammer to smash it open. Blaine welcomed him and Red inside and gets strapped onto a conveyor belt which led them into a pool of Voltorb. Since his Charmander avoided getting the wrong answers and Clefairy kept getting the questions wrong, Green watched as Red slowly slid into the Voltorb pool. When Blaine sent out his last Pokémon, Arcanine, Green escaped from the conveyor belt. He along with the group left the game show when Clefairy and Arcanine became stuck in cement. Green was out on a meadow, enjoying his rice balls until Clefairy crashed the party. Green and Charmander race the group to a mansion and gets tied up by Giovanni. He witnesses the creation of Mewtwo done by Bill after Giovanni and his twin brother force him to do so. He then watched as Clefairy tampers with the machine that was responsible for Mewtwo's creation, which gave some of Clefairy's DNA to Giovanni's Pokémon.
He competed in the curry cooking competition and lost, and also competed in the contest held in Giovanni's dome. He participated in the New Year games to celebrate the New Year. During a mission that Red had with getting 10 Billion yen, Green joined him as Red couldn't do it alone. The duo managed to sneak inside the mansion and with the help of a Magnemite, managed to get to the vault. They were about to get the yen until Clefairy posed at the camera which blew their cover and Giovanni arrived and trapped the Trainers inside the vault once they got inside. Both Green and Red managed to escape when Clefairy's gas was mixed with Charmander's flames and blew the place up.
After Red traveled to Hawaii to get a break, Green also went there for the same reason and told him about a soccer course on a field. He and Red compete in the soccer match using their Pokémon. The match gets underway until an Exeggcute got out of control and attacked the Pokémon.
Green went to the Pokémon League and was surprised to see Red there. They battle each other after Red eliminated Blue from the tournament. Both sides fought extremely hard until they were down to Onix and Togepi, in which Red borrowed from Misty earlier. However, Green lost after Togepi's tears flooded the whole battlefield.
Johto
Green was revealed to have traveled to Johto when he stole a Chikorita from Professor Oak. This was unknown to Red at first until they found Chikorita at an alley and Green comes out of his hiding place. With no other choice, Green promised to return it to Professor Oak. He went to the Ruins of Alph and became trapped there. He fought the Unown there with Charizard and escaped when Clefairy blew up the place.
Later, Green became unconscious after getting shot by arrows. He teams up with Red to get the Dragon's teeth but in a last-ditch effort, abandons Red in favor for the teeth. He gets hit by one of the Poké Balls and the Dragon's teeth gets sent flying and landed in Clefairy's hands. When one of the Poké Balls revealed itself to be Clair, Green becomes interested in her as he wanted her to become his date. They go to the Gym and as soon as Red and his Pokémon arrived, they noticed Green and Charizard were brutally beaten by Clair and her Dragonair.
