Robert and Willow were now walking through the dirt path surrounded by tall grass as they traveled towards Pallet Town. 

"I wonder what kind of Pokemon are around here," Willow commented. 

"Who knows, doubt there may be any bug or poison types, but it couldn't hurt to capture a few other types," Robert stated. 

"I agree could be good to have some balance of other types for the gym battles and  Indigo league," Willow stated. "So what to see what Pokemon are around here or wait for on the way back to Viridian City?" She asked glancing over at Robert.

"I suggest until after we get the update on the Pokedex from Professor Oak on Kanto native Pokemon like Professor Birch suggested so we know what Pokemon were catching," Robert replied. 

Willow nodded."That is understandable well then let's go," Willow said as they continued down the path leading to Pallet Town. 

Robert chuckled."For someone who hasn't decided on her path as you are sure excited to get the adventure started so you can capture Pokemon," He said smiling at his best friend. 

"Sure I may not know actually what kind of path I want to follow yet," Willow started."However, I love exploring and seeing new Pokemon and I feel the more I travel and learn about pokemon from other regions. It will bring me steps closer to choosing my path as a Pokémon trainer." 

"I agree and whatever you decide I'm sure you will be great at it," Robert stated.

"Thanks that's why you're my best friend always believing in me."

Robert nodded as he noticed a sign saying Pallet Town up ahead."Looks like we're almost to Pallet Town," He said.

The rest of the walk was in silence as the duo continued straight ahead towards Pallet Town.

Robert and Willow arrived at Pallet Town as they scanned the scenery for Professor Oak's lab.

"I'm taking the large building up on the hill is the lab," Willow commented pointing at the building she was talking about.

"Then let's get going and meet this Professor Oak," Robert said putting away his Pokenav since he didn't need to look at the map anymore.

"Sounds like a plan wonder how far the lab is from here?" Willow wondered.

"It probably not as far as it looks," Robert replied as he and Willow started walking in the direction of Professor Oak's lab.

"Yeah given Professor Birch's lab wasn't as far as it seemed from our house, but who knows might be different here," Willow stated.

After a sixteen-minute walk, Robert and Willow were coming closer to the hill where they saw a large crowd of cheerleaders gathered around cheering.

"Gary, Gary!" They cheered.

"What there deal?" Willow asked.

Robert shrugged."Who knows but if I were to guess they're rooting for some kid who thinks they're that cool," He stated as he walked forward squeezing through the crowd.

"Excuse us some people are trying to get through," Willow stated as she squeezed through the crowd with Robert.

Robert opened the door and walked inside with Willow following him inside.

"Professor Oak are you here!" Willow called out.

Robert and Willow glanced up hearing footsteps and saw a ten-year-old boy with spiky brown hair with brown eyes. He was wearing a long sleeve purple shirt, dark grey pants, a yin, and yang necklace, and brown boots with black straps encircling them.
