Features: Ash Ketchum, a young boy from Pallet Town, dreams of becoming a world-renowned Pokémon Trainer. Together with his companions, Misty and Brock, he travels with Pikachu, battling gym leaders across regions on a journey to collect badges. However, wherever Ash and his friends go, the Pokémon Research Group (Team Rocket) always appears, trying to steal Pikachu and causing quite a stir each time. Last time, at the "Swimsuit Beauty and Pokémon Costume Contest" held on Blue River Beach, they disrupted the event by crashing a submarine. The jellyfish in the harbor waters have grown enormous due to human development of resorts destroying their habitats. Team Rocket is truly incompetent and always manages to make things worse! But Ash is undeterred by obstacles, continuing to travel to various gyms, battling gym leaders, and has already earned three badges. Chasing his rival, Gary, to participate in the Pokémon League, Ash sets off from the harbor, heading toward the next gym to seize the Golden Badge.
