Growing up and living in a place like Pallet Town was pretty boring as it was an isolated place.

The only place of note for this little town was that it was the home of the famous Professor Samuel Oak. He was once a strong trainer that was on the level of the Elite Four – four of the five strongest trainers in Kanto. Though, before taking the Elite Four Challenge something in Samuel Oak changed. Samuel Oak just woke up one morning and realised that he didn't want to battle Pokémon anymore, no, he was much happier when studying and nurturing Pokémon instead.

So he left the life of a Pokémon battler behind and he set up shop in the town that he grew up in; Pallet Town. He and his Pokémon had never been happier as they too; were tired of battling for the sake of battling. Professor Oak became a well-known name in the Pokémon research scene and soon after he became the new Regional Professor – and responsible for setting up aspiring Pokémon trainers with their starter pokémon, and educating them for their journeys.

There were three starter pokémon for the Kanto region. They were Bulbasaur: a Grass Type, Charmander: a Fire Type, and finally Squirtle: a Water Type. There were many different Pokémon types and species and they were still learning new things about them every day. This little town would be the starting place for a new champion in the making: Ash Ketchum.

Ash Ketchum was an average size for a seven year old and had wild, untamed raven black hair that he usually hid with a red hat that bore the Kanto League logo. The hat used to belong to his father. He possessed a pair of lovely warm, chocolate brown eyes that overflowed with cheerful mirth. He was an active child, always playing in the sun if his tan was any indication and you would often see him laughing, running and playing around Pallet Town.

Ash Ketchum was clearly an energetic child before the accident – so energetic in fact, that it bordered on hyperactive and as a result was often easily distracted from his studies with Professor Oak and the little class that he taught in his spare time. The Professor had noticed this and had told Ash's mother, Delia Ketchum that he thought that Ash should be tested for any learning problems that were often found in those that couldn't stay focussed for long periods of time. Delia just waved the Professor's comment off with a statement that Ash's father was the same at his age. Professor Oak had immediately backed off after the statement as he knew who Ash's father is/was: the legendary Red Ketchum.
