Episode 1 - "Pokémon, I choose you!"
This is the very first episode of Pokémon. Ash Ketchum is watching a Pokémon battle on TV at bedtime
when Ash's mother tells him to go to sleep. When he refused, his mother decided to prepare Ash for
training by watching a Pokémon video. Ash then vowed to become the greatest Pokémon trainer ever. He
gets a dream of Pokémons. The next morning, he oversleeps and arrives late so he rushes to Professor
Oak. Ash comes across Professor Oak's grandson, Gary, who claims that he picked the best Pokémon of
the litter. When Ash arrives to Professor Oak, in search of a Pokémon, all the starter Pokémons are
taken so he settles for Pikachu, a disobedient, electrical rodent doesn't like his new trainer and dislikes
going into the Pokéball. Professor Oak gives Ash a Pokéball and a Pokédex, a small computer which gives
important information about Pokémons.
After, Ash begins his journey to the next town when he comes across a Pidgey. He tries to get Pikachu
to fight the Pidgey but Pikachu just climbs up a tree instead and watches Ash trying to catch the Pidgey.
A while later, Ash finds a Spearow, a even better Pokémon than a Pidgey. Ash throws a rock at it and
started to make it mad. The Spearow then swooped down towards Ash and but misses then it heads
towards Pikachu instead. Pikachu fights back with his electric bolt and takes him down. Then the
Spearow started calling some his other species and they all chase them. Ash and Pikachu jump into a
river and comes across Misty, who was fishing. Ash steals her bike to get away from the Spearows. As
the flock of Spearows were closing in on them, Pikachu lets out a huge bolt of electricity at them.
Pikachu had lost all his energy to take down the flock so Ash then put him in his arms and started running
to the Pokémon Centre in Viridian City. *Will Pikachu ever be saved...??*

Episode 2 - "Pokémon Emergency!"
Ash heads into Viridian city with his injured Pokémon, a public announcement was made that
there were Pokémon poachers in the area. Ash is stopped by a policewoman who thinks that
Ash might of stolen Pikachu. After saying that he didn't steal it, the policewoman asks Ash
for some I.D. Not knowing that the Pokédex was some form of I.D. Ash continues to plead
that he didn't steal Pikachu. Suddenly, the policewoman takes out Dexter from Ash and
confirms that he was a trainer. She then takes Ash and Pikachu directly to the Pokémon
Centre (it's like a Pokémon hospital). When they arrive at the Pokémon Centre, Ash gives
Pikachu to the nurse where she lays Pikachu on a stretcher and take him to the emergency
room. Ash is stuck waiting in the waiting room where he decides to call his mom and then
receives a call from Professor Oak. Out of nowhere, Misty shows up with her badly, broken
bike and starts insulting Ash. Then, Pikachu is brought out and the nurse tells Ash that
Pikachu would be alright. Without a warning, Team Rocket (the villains who steal Pokémons),
shows up at the Centre with their two strong Pokémons, Ekans and Koffing. Ash, Misty and
the nurse head to the Pokémon Transformation Centre where Team Rocket finds them and
start a battle between Koffing, Ekans, Rattata, Pidgey and Goldeen. To save the other
Pokémons, the nurse starts transporting all the Pokéballs to the Pewter City Pokémon
Centre. In the middle of it all, Ash turns to run away to get Pikachu. As Ash was running with
Pikachu still on the stretcher, Team Rocket's monsters follow. The stretcher hits a wire and
Pikachu wakes up and calls his other Pikachu friends to help take care of the monsters with a
gigantic electric surge which destroys the Pokémon Centre. The explosion forces Team
Rocket to run away as they vow to steal Pikachu, knowing that Pikachu was was not just an
ordinary Pokémon.
Ash, Misty and Pikachu start heading to Pewter City. They walk into a forest and Misty
discovers a Caterpie (a bug Pokémon that looks like a huge caterpillar). Then, Ash threw a
Pokéball at it.... *read the next episode to see if Ash caught the Caterpie*

Episode 3 - "Ash Catches a Pokémon"
Ash throws a Pokéball at the Caterpie and manages to catch it. This is Ash's first time to
catch a Pokémon. He lets the Caterpie out and Pikachu gives it a warm welcome then the
Caterpie goes over to Misty. She becomes disgusted with it and admits hating carrots, bell
peppers and bugs. The Caterpie seems to like Misty and starts crying when she rejected
him. She wants to be Pikachu's friend instead and suggested Ash to be Caterpie's friend.
Mad and jealous, Ash threatens that he'll abandon Misty in the forest so Pikachu jumps out of
Misty's arms and quickly follows him. Misty starts to follow Ash so Ash has no choice but to
take her along. When night came long, Pikachu and Caterpie were having a little conversation.
The next morning, Caterpie is found sleeping next to Misty. Ash finds a Pidgeotto, an
evolved form of Pidgey. It chases Caterpie until Ash him in a Pokéball. Then, Ash sent for
Pikachu to capture Pidgeotto. Not long after, Team Rocket shows up and demands that Ash
give up Pikachu. Ash refuses their demand so Team Rocket releases their Pokémons.
Pidgeotto fights but the battle was going nowhere. Ash calls upon Caterpie, who was injured
from Pidgeotto earlier. Caterpie uses his String attack on Ekans and Koffing. He then wraps
Meowth in the string and Team Rocket flees again. After the battle, Misty agrees to
become Caterpie's friend. As she was going to pet him, Caterpie mummifies himself in string
and becomes Metapod. The Pokédex said that Caterpie evolved into Metapod quicker than
the others. Misty wants to leave the forest but Ash insists on staying and catching more
Pokémons. *And that's the end of the episode....*

Misty REALLY wants to get out of there and on to Pewter City when she discovers another
bug Pokémon called a Weedle (a caterpillar with a poisonous stinger) She screams and Ash
tries calling upon Pikachu to catch it but he's napping so he sent Pidgeotto instead to try to
catch it. In the middle of the battle, Misty runs away and meet a Samurai Pokémon trainer,
Ososhru. He tells her not to scream or else she'll attract attention of some Beedrills (a
Weedle's the third-stage of evolution) Then, Ososhru asked Misty if she knows of any
Pokémon trainers from Pallet Town. Immediately, she thinks that he's talking about Ash. As
the battle between Pidgeotto and the Weedle was still going on, and Ash was about to catch
the Weedle, he is interrupted by the Samurai, who declares a battle. The Weedle manages
to run away and Ash agrees to the battle. Ash calls upon the weaken Pidgeotto to fight
against the Samurai's Pincer. In no time, Pidgeotto loses to Pincer so Ash calls upon
Metapod. Metapod's shell hardens and Pincer is unable to penetrate it. Ososhru calls his
Pincer back and brings out his Metapod. His Metapod also hardens. Meanwhile, Team Rocket
is lurking somewhere in the forest and is trying to avoid the Beedrills. Back at the battle,
Ososhru and Ash still urges their Metapods on when some Beedrills interrupt them. The
samurai takes his Metapod back but the Beedrills gets a hold of Ash's Metapod. Ash, the
samurai and the others run to the samurai's cabin as the Beedrills come after them. In the
cabin, the samurai tells his story of how he's lost to three trainers from Pallet Town and
vowed to defeat one.
The next morning, Ash finds Metapod near a bunch of Kakunas. Suddenly, Team Rocket
shows up and demands for Pikachu again. This awakes the Beedrills and they start chasing
everyone. Ash escapes but Team Rocket didn't. A Beedrill swoops down towards Ash but
Metapod saves him by jumping in front of him. They beat the Beedrills and Metapod
miraculously evolves to Butterfree. The samurai doesn't see Ash as a novice anymore and
shows them the way to Pewter City.

out Pidgeotto. Pidgeotto is suppose to have an advantage over Sandshrew (a ground-type
Pokémon), but the Sandshrew has had some good training and knocks Pidgeotto from the air.
Ash calls Pidgeotto after being defeated, and takes out Butterfree. After using another

for him, but there was not response. Ash suggested that Sandshrew might of ran away due
to A.J.'s harsh training methods. Elsewhere, Sandshrew jumps out of the bag and Meowth is
knocked out. Sandshrew manages to escape underground with Meowth's mouth latched on its
tail. Soon Sandshrew and Meowth are found in the tent. Ash, Misty, and Brock discover that
A.J. really does care about his Pokémon after an emotional moment, as Pikachu points out
Meowth is on the floor. Team Rocket suddenly appear out of nowhere. . Jesse and James
come to Meowth's and insult A.J.'s Pokémon and the gym. A.J. challenges them for his 100th
win and, as usual, Jesse chooses Ekans while James calls out Koffing. Bringing the match to a
close, Sandshrew leaps into the air, smashing into the ground hard enough to split it in half.
The monsters freak out and run away, as A.J gets his 100th win. A.J decides leaves on his
own, in search for some badges. In the end, Ash decides A.J. isn't as bad as he thought, and
