Pokemon: The Beginning of an Unlikely Journey[Not Continued]

On the crucial morning of their Pokémon Trainer ceremony, brothers Ash and Blaze Ketchum oversleep, racing to Professor Oak's lab in their pajamas. They arrive just in time to see their rival, Gary Oak, flaunting his newly-received Pokémon. Disheartened to find that all the starter Pokémon have been taken, Ash pleads for any available Pokémon while Blaze asserts his own demand. Professor Oak reluctantly hands Ash an electric-type Pikachu, who shocks him upon being picked up, and presents Blaze with a Riolu named Tempest, a gift from their father. Along with their Pokédex and six Poké Balls, the brothers set out on their journey.

As Ash struggles to bond with Pikachu, Blaze and Tempest quickly demonstrate their prowess. Tempest’s disciplined focus and sharp abilities become evident as Blaze and his Pokémon effortlessly capture a Pidgeotto, a feat Ash could not manage with his own struggling Pikachu. Blaze’s Riolu showcases impressive techniques like Swords Dance and Stone Edge, while Ash remains frustrated by Pikachu’s stubborn independence.

Their adventure takes a dangerous turn when Ash and Pikachu unwittingly provoke a flock of aggressive Spearow. Tempest, wielding his Stone Edge with precision, helps protect them from the relentless bird Pokémon. Blaze and Tempest's strategic partnership is key in fending off the initial attacks, but the situation escalates as the flock intensifies its assault.

In a dramatic escape, Ash grabs Pikachu, and Blaze, with Tempest, dives into a waterfall. They are rescued by a young girl who advises them to head to Viridian City's Pokémon Center. Ash commandeers the girl’s bike, but loses control, crashing down a hill. With Pikachu’s condition deteriorating, Ash desperately begs him to enter his Poké Ball. Witnessing Ash’s dedication, Pikachu unleashes a powerful Thunder attack, scattering the remaining Spearow and destroying the bike in the process. Blaze and Tempest also confront and defeat the remaining Spearow, proving their strength and teamwork.

As Ash and Blaze recover, they catch sight of a mysterious golden bird across a rainbow, an enigmatic Pokémon not listed in their Pokédex. With Pikachu's trust earned and Tempest’s loyalty unwavering, the brothers, with their Pokémon, head into Viridian City, ready to face the challenges that await them on their quest to become the greatest Pokémon trainers.
