Pokémon Origins - S01

Pokémon are amazing creatures that come in all sorts of types and sizes, with abilities, powers, and personalities as varied as they are many. Doctor Yukinari Ookido has spent his life studying these fascinating beings, which can be caught, trained, traded, and battled against each other. There's only so much he can do from his lab, though. With that in mind, Ookido entrusts two young boys with a Pokémon of their own and a computerized encyclopedia to catalog them. One of them, Green, is brash, passionate, a little arrogant, and Doctor Ookido's own nephew. The other boy, Red, is just as passionate, and full of a wide-eyed, somewhat naive sense of wonder. Pokémon: The Origin follows Red on his journey through the Kanto region as he tries to complete his "Pokédex" by capturing and cataloging every Pokémon that exists. Along the way he'll find there's more to himself and his goals than he first thought. Red will have to put himself and his Pokémon to the test in special Gyms, whose leaders are steps on the path to the Pokémon League, in order to challenge the Elite Four and become a Pokémon League Champion. Besides his goal of becoming a Champion, Red has other troubles brewing. There are those who capture and train Pokémon for darker reasons, with the infamous criminal organization Team Rocket being one of them. If Red can defeat them, fellow trainers, his rival Green, and wild Pokémon all across Kanto, he just might fulfill his own dream, and Doctor Ookido's as well.
