[ Johto Region - Mount Silver ]

The sun had just begun to dip below the horizon, casting long shadows on the quiet streets of a small town nestled at the base of Mount Silver in Johto. The idyllic community was a picturesque example of serenity, with quaint homes and lush gardens dotting the landscape. As the day waned, the townspeople retired to their cozy abodes, leaving the streets almost deserted.

Nestled among the charming storefronts, a tiny bar served as a refuge for those seeking respite from the day's toils. Behind the counter, a bored bartender named Max absentmindedly polished the glasses, his stout build and thick mustache giving him an air of authority despite his young age. Max sighed, convinced that it was going to be another uneventful day. He absentmindedly flipped through the channels on the TV mounted on the wall, hoping to find something to pass the time.

As Max settled on a rerun of an old sitcom, the door to the bar creaked open. He glanced up and began to greet the newcomer when he suddenly froze, his eyes locking with those of a disheveled man who stood in the doorway. The man's tattered clothes hung loosely on his thin frame, and his unkempt beard bore witness to months, if not years, of neglect. Despite his disarray, the man's piercing orange eyes seemed to stare straight into Max's soul. A belt of first-generation Pokeballs hung at the man's waist, giving the bartender pause.

"What can I get you?" Max asked cautiously, trying to hide his unease. The man pointed at the TV, and Max hesitated before responding. "You'll need to buy something if you want to use the TV." The stranger rummaged through his pockets and produced a few solid silvers coins, placing them on the counter. Max's eyes widened, but he nodded and handed the man the remote.

As the man began flicking through channels, he landed on a news coverage from Kanto, where Sabrina said a sentence that made the man pause as if he wasn't expecting such words.

[ Team Rocket Has Fallen ]

Max, sensing an opportunity for conversation, asked, "What can I get you to drink?"

The man pointed towards the water as the bar tender saw this large wound across the man's neck as if it was slashed open.

Max nodded and fetched the water, trying to make small talk as he handed it over. "So, what's your name, stranger?"

The man hesitated, as if searching his memory for the answer. Finally, he wrote down the words, "Red ... Red Ketchum."

People all over Kanto were glued to their screens as they heard the breaking news, a story that would forever alter the landscape of their world. The screen flickered to life, showing the familiar logo of Channel 6 Kanto News before transitioning to the poised figure of the reporter.

Diana Bell, known for her striking presence with sharp, angular features and her hair styled in a sleek bob, looked into the camera with an intensity that commanded attention. The backdrop was the bustling streets of Cerulean City, with the channel's logo emblazoned in the corner of the screen.

"Good evening, Kanto," Diana began, her voice resonating with a mix of gravity and excitement. "Our region stands at the precipice of a monumental shift. In an unprecedented turn of events, the notorious Team Rocket has been dismantled!"
