The story begins with Ruby and his mother traveling in a moving truck. Ruby has fallen asleep but promptly wakes up once they reach Littleroot Town. He is pleased to see that the new house is a two-story, rushing into his room on the second floor. He shouts happily out the window, scaring the [[Machoke]] that are still moving furniture in. He heads out for a walk and find the laboratory of [[Professor Birch]]. He tries to leave a message but is instead greeted by Sapphire, who introduces herself as the daughter of Professor Birch. Suddenly, they both hear Professor Birch screaming for help. He is attacked by a wild Poochyena and asks Ruby and Sapphire to help by calling out a Pokémon.

He heads out for a walk and find the laboratory of [[Professor Birch]]. He tries to leave a message but is instead greeted by Sapphire, who introduces herself as the daughter of Professor Birch. Suddenly, they both hear Professor Birch screaming for help. He is attacked by a wild Poochyena and asks Ruby and Sapphire to help by calling out a Pokémon. Ruby chooses a Poké Ball which contains Mudkip. It immediately fights off the Poochyena with a [[water gun]]. With Poochyena weakened, Sapphire throws another Poké Ball and captures it. Professor Birch lets Ruby keep the Mudkip as a gift while Sapphire asks if Ruby would like to have a battle with her. Sapphire sends out her Torchic while Ruby's Mudkip tries to run away from battle. Despite the type disadvantage, Torchic gains the upper hand by burning the grass Mudkip hid in. Mudkip eventually retaliates with water gun and tackle, narrowly defeating Torchic. Back at the lab, Sapphire opines that Ruby got a lucky start as Professor Birch asks Ruby to show Mudkip to his father [[Norman]]. | ||
Ruby takes Mudkip to Norman in Petalburg City. Norman is horrified at the sight of Mudkip, admonishing Ruby for not taking good care of it and disqualifying him as a trainer. Norman angrily remarks that they need to go to a Pokémon Center to heal up Mudkip. Ruby is heartbroken as he sits along a lakeside, thinking about what has just happened. Norman takes Mudkip to Ruby and to his surprise, Mudkip immediately runs up to Ruby. Norman admits he doesn't know everything about Pokémon but he can tell that Mudkip and Ruby share a good bond with one another. Norman then cheerfully advises Ruby to gather experience by battling several trainers and Pokémon in the woods before having a battle with him in the gym. Ruby, encouraged by this, happily agrees and sets off into the woods with Mudkip. | Ruby takes Mudkip to Norman in Petalburg City.

A grunt from Team Magma appears and challenges the scientist to a battle. Ruby defends the scientist so the grunt battles him instead. The grunt sends out a Shroomish, which resists Mudkip's water gun and proceeds to use stun spore against Mudkip. Mudkip is exhausted but ultimately wins by using mud slap to confuse Shroomish, and tackle to finish it off. The grunt runs off with his Shroomish as Ruby heals up Mudkip's injuries from battle. Ruby proudly declares that his adventure has begun and he will become a Champion. Ruby and Mudkip race out of the woods as the scientist from Devon tries catching up to them. | A grunt from Team Magma appears and challenges the scientist to a battle.
