The Pokémon Clefairy Enters!! (Japanese: ???) is the first chapter of the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga.
Synopsis
Two young boys are running in the streets of Pallet Town. They bump into each other and are startled when they realize they recognize each other - one boy is Isamu Akai (nicknamed "Red") and one is Kai Midorikawa (nicknamed "Green"). Isamu explains to Kai that he was in a hurry because he was summoned to Professor Oak's lab. Kai says that he was also called to the lab, and they decide to race each other there.
Isamu decides to take a shortcut through a field of wild Pokémon. A talking Nidoran♂ approaches Isamu and warns him that they're monsters. When Isamu laughs, the Nidoran♂ breathes fire on him. While Isamu is running for the nearest source of water to put the fire out, coconuts start falling from the sky on to Nidoran♂ and its friends which were also chasing after Isamu. Isamu looks up and sees that it's a Clefairy that's throwing the coconuts. When Nidoran♂ yells to Clefairy to come down from the tree, it slips and hits Nidoran♂ on the head, knocking it out.
Isamu thanks the Clefairy for its help and then resumes his frenzied dash to Professor Oak's lab, only to find out that Kai had beat him there anyways. Professor Oak tells the two boys that he has something important to announce: he's bald. When Isamu and Kai finally get him to be serious, Oak gives them both Pokédexes, explaining that he's too old to do field work and that he'd like them to complete the Pokédex for him. He then unveils three starter Pokémon: Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle. Kai hastily chooses Charmander and begins to leave the lab. Before he opens the door, however, the same Clefairy from before bursts through and bounces around the room. Oak yells at the Clefairy, saying that he had asked it not to come into the lab, but Clefairy starts massaging Oak's shoulders and he soon forgets what he was yelling about. Isamu decides that he'd like Clefairy to be his starter Pokémon, much to Oak's surprise. Clefairy is so thrilled at the thought of traveling with Isamu that it starts licking his face.
Kai is skeptical that Isamu can be a successful trainer with Clefairy, and his Charmander ends up attacking Clefairy, setting its tail on fire. As Clefairy is frantically running around the lab trying to find a fire extinguisher, it ends up setting more things on fire, causing Oak to get even angrier than before. The chapter ends with Clefairy and Isamu outside the lab (which is still on fire), with Professor Oak yelling at Clefairy from the distance.
