Pokémon Indigo League opens to Ash Ketchum’s tenth birthday and he’s ready to do what many 10-year-
olds in the Kanto region set out to do, become a Pokémon Trainer. Things don’t go exactly the way he planned when he ends up with Pikachu instead of a standard first Pokémon, and winning Gym badges turns out to be much tougher than he thought. Luckily, he’s got former Gym Leaders Brock and Misty at his side, along with a bevy of new Pokémon friends, including Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander.
