Kanto Region where everything started, Pallet Town.
"Gary, why did you get up so early today?" Professor Oak looked at Gary who suddenly got up early and couldn't help but feel puzzled. There was still an hour before the Rookie reported.
"Of course, today is the day to select Starter Pokémon, so of course I have to get up early." said the handsome boy with reddish brown hair.
"I think you got up so early because you are worried that the Pokémon you like will be challenged by other Rookies." Professor Oak saw Gary's thoughts at a glance.
Professor Oak was responsible for the Rookie training and selection of starterPokémon in Pallet Town.
As Professor Oak's grandson, Gary came into contact with starter Pokémon earlier than other Rookies, and knew that Pokémon had higher potential.
"Hehe."
Gary smiled slightly and didn't deny it.
He wouldn't say that he came so early to open the system.
Gary is a modern man who traveled to the Pokémon world.
He was happy to learn that he was transferred to the Pokémon world and became the grandson of Professor Oak.
Although he is not the protagonist Ash, Gary is the grandson of Professor Oak, a top second-generation scientist, and a perfect start.
Since he has become Gary, he must make up for Gary's regrets.
He was ranked 32nd in the Indigo Plateau Conference and 16th in the Silver Conference, and finally gave up his dream of becoming a Pokémon master and became a Pokémon researcher.
Since he was reborn, Gary would never give up halfway. Even if he wanted to become a Pokémon researcher, he would wait until he won the Pokémon World Championship.
The reason why Gary came to Professor Oak's Laboratory so early was not just to be the first to choose starter Pokémon, but because the system would be activated after choosing Starter Pokémon.
Just last night, the system suddenly woke up and assigned Gary a task.
[Current task: Get Starter Pokémon Squirtle/Task reward: Deluxe gift pack x1. ]
According to the original work, Gary did choose Squirtle as the Startee Pokémon.
Squirtle is a very good Pokémon, and its final evolution Blastoise is also quite powerful. After all, it has mega evolution and a unique Gigantamax form, so it is absolutely no problem to be the main Pokemon.
And the Squirtle in the starter Pokémon selected for Rookie this time is definitely not weak, at least it has the potential to be an Elite.
Gary himself also plans to choose Squirtle in this Rookie Pokémon. After all, after taking care of it for a while, Gary can see that Squirtle is the best among the three starters this time.
An hour later...!
Professor Oak's Laboratory was full of people, most of them were the family members of this batch of Rookie Trainers, and only two people really chose Pokémon.
Professor Oak also welcomed the other two Rookie Trainers in. Gary looked at the two Rookies, one boy and one girl. The boy was called Orange and the girl was called yellow. Like Ash and Gary, they grew up together in Pallet Town.
"Gary, I didn't expect you to arrive so early. It seems that you have already decided which Pokémon to choose. After you choose the Pokémon, let's have a battle." Orange's tone was full of taunt.
Yellow looked like a good girl, and didn't dare to talk. She just looked at Gary and Orange silently.
Gary wanted to refuse this meaningless battle, but...!
[Ding! Temporary mission released: Defeat the challenger Orange/Task reward: Low-level Rare CandyX3 (for Pokémon below level 30, level +1.)]
"Okay, then let me let you taste your first defeat as a Trainer." Gary said arrogantly.
"What! You will be the one to taste defeat." Orange said unconvinced.
"Then wait and see." Gary was in no mood to argue with a 10-year-old kid.
Gary didn't take Orange and Yellow in front of him seriously at all. After becoming Trainers, these two guys had a smooth early stage, but they had difficulty in the middle stage and gave up their dream of becoming Trainers.
How could Gary take someone who hadn't even participated in a Pokémon Conference seriously?
Professor Oak looked at Gary and Orange who were confronting each other, and he was helpless, but he didn't dissuade them.
Trainers naturally have to have a temper.
It is common for trainers to have Pokémon battles with each other.
"Then you can have the battle in the backyard later." Professor Oak was very considerate and provided a venue for the two.
"Okay, follow me." Professor Oak took Gary and the other two to the test nearby, took out three Poké Balls from the pocket inside his white coat and opened them.
Great...!
"Bulba!"
"Char!"
"Squirtle!"
The classic first generation of the three Pokémons appeared.
When Orange and Yellow saw the three Pokémons, their eyes were full of stars.
Even though Gary had taken care of these three little guys, he was still very excited.
"Okay, this is the Starter Pokémon provided for you. According to the order of first come first served, Gary, you choose first." Professor Oak said.
"Then I won't be polite." Gary walked over generously.
Orange and Yellow became nervous instantly. They naturally had their favorite Pokémons and were worried that they would be chosen by Gary.
Gary walked straight towards Squirtle, stretched out his hand, and said: "Squirtle, come with me, I will let you stand on the top of the world."
"Squirtle."
Squirtle nodded frequently with his round head. He was very happy to follow Gary and hugged Gary's arm directly.
"Hehe, you are my first Pokémon." Gary also touched Squirtle's head lovingly.
"Squirtle! Squirtle!"
Squirtle squinted his eyes and enjoyed Gary's touch.
[Ding! Mission completed, rewards have been issued to the space backpack. ]
The sudden system prompt brought Gary back to his senses.
Gary is now very curious about what is in the luxury gift package, but the current situation is not good to open the luxury gift package, so he can only wait.
"Okay, it's your turn next, yellow." Professor Oak
"Yes!" Little Yellow nodded, walked directly to Bulbasaur, lowered his body, and said: "Bulbasaur, come with me."
"Bulba!"
Bulbasaur did not hesitate at all, stretched out Vine Whip on both sides, and started fighting with Little Yellow.
"Okay! Charmander is mine!" Little Orange said excitedly.
Little Orange's favorite Pokémon is Charmander. Just now, I was worried that Gary and Little Yellow would snatch Charmander away.
In this way, the three of them all chose the Pokémon they liked.
"Gary, let's fight." After getting Charmander, Little Orange immediately challenged Gary.
Gary didn't know what to say to Little Orange.
Are you blind?
Didn't you see that the Pokémon I chose was Squirtle?
Water type restrains fire type, okay?
It seems that this Little Orange doesn't know much about Pokémon knowledge, which is comparable to Ash. No wonder he gave up becoming a Trainer later.
