Character

Red became very excited to go on his journey as seen when he ran down the stairs and then to Professor Oak's laboratory.

History

Red and his rival, Blue

Red first appeared in the very first episode of the series where he gets called down by Professor Oak to see him in his lab. Along the way, he met Professor Oak's grandson, Blue, who was also going there too. Both boys race to Professor Oak's lab where he greeted them and handed out their Pokédex and Poké Balls. On a table, Red got to choose between a Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur, and went for the first choice while Blue went for Squirtle. Red began his journey afterwards.

Outside, he encountered a Pidgey and was unsuccessful in catching it. However, when a Rattata came by, Red was able to add it to his team. Red has his first battle with a Youngster where he tried to catch his Nidoran♀ but failed as they were not designed to capture a Pokémon belonging to another Trainer. The Youngster pointed to Viridian City as the location that he caught Nidoran♀. Red goes there and met up with Blue along the way who battles him. Both Trainers use their first Pokémon and Red ends up losing the battle since his Charmander forfeited by wagging its tail.

After the battle, Red became depressed and noticed Brock coming by. They have a talk with each other which gave Red his confidence back. Later, he arrived in Pewter City where he went to the Pokémon Center to talk to Professor Oak first. While there, he healed up his Pokémon. Next, he went to the Pewter Museum of Science and did some sightseeing. When Red was about to go to the Pewter Gym to challenge Brock, a Lass and another person were standing there. As Red went inside, the two people watched them have their Gym battle with Red becoming the victor after a long battle that took most of his team.

Since then, he was able to defeat Misty and Lt. Surge. Red arrived in Lavender Town where he heard about some ghost sightings in Lavender Tower. Red went to the Lavender Volunteer Pokémon House and met Reina who was a helper there. Reina explained to Red about Team Rocket and their ways of handling Pokémon, and how a Cubone lost its mother to them. Hearing about Team Rocket's arrival at Lavender Tower, Red went there and was met up by Blue who heard about it too. A ghost then appeared and Red sent out his Charmeleon to deal with it. Before Red started the battle, Blue tossed him the Silph Scope in order to identify the ghost. Putting on the Silph Scope, Red noticed that it was Cubone's deceased mother. After Cubone reunited with its mother, Team Rocket appeared and Red battled their Koffing with his Jolteon. As Cubone assisted Jolteon, Jolteon was able to score a direct hit on Koffing, forcing Team Rocket to retreat. Red returned to the Lavender Volunteer Pokémon House and Mr. Fuji gave Red a Poké Flute and two Mega Evolution stones. Red then departed from Lavender Town and continued his journey.

Red challenged Erika to a Gym battle and won. Afterwards, he battled Koga and won as well. Red then went to Silph Co. where he was able to free the Pokémon Team Rocket stole and was rewarded a Lapras. On the top floor, Red noticed that Giovanni had the Silph Co. president held hostage. Red battled Giovanni with Charizard and horribly lost.

Red left Silph Co. and challenged Sabrina to a Gym battle where he emerged victorious. Red also went to the Pokémon dojo and challenged Kiyo where he emerged victorious there too. Red rode on his Lapras to Cinnabar Island where he went to the Cinnabar Mansion first. Next, he challenged Blaine to a Gym battle and won.

Red returned to Viridian City to challenge the final Gym there. The Gym Leader was none other than Giovanni. Red had a rematch with him and even though Giovanni had the upperhand at first, Red was able to defeat him after his Hitmonlee tied with his Rhyhorn and Charizard defeated Rhydon. This defeat caused Giovanni to disband Team Rocket, and to respect Red as a Trainer.

Red went to Indigo Plateau and managed to get through the Elite Four. He challenged Blue who was the Champion to their final match where Red was able to defeat his Blastoise with Charizard despite the type-disadvantage. Professor Oak comes by and congratulated both Trainers and had Red come with him. Red was taken to the Hall of Fame where he got to register his data as one of the Trainers who defeated the Elite Four and Champion.

He continued his quest afterwards to fill up the Pokédex and caught more Pokémon. Red returned to Professor Oak's lab where he found an injured Blue after Blue went to Cerulean Cave. Both boys compare their Pokédexes to see who filled up theirs more. Professor Oak then explained to Red about the Mega Evolution stones and their origins, as well as Mewtwo and Mew.

Red then went all the way to Cerulean Cave to find Mewtwo. As Red found Mewtwo, he decided to battle it and it defeated part of Red's whole team where Charizard ended up becoming the last one standing. During the battle, Red got his Charizard to Mega Evolve and was equal in strength with Mewtwo. After weakening it, Red threw an Ultra Ball at it and successfully caught it. He returned home where he had dinner with his mother, Blue, and Professor Oak before going off to catch Mew in order to complete the Pokédex.
