Leaf is a | Leaf is a curious girl from Pallet Town. The Generation I instruction booklets explain that Red became interested in Pokémon after his best friend, Blue, stopped playing with him and became a bully, so presumably this is true for Leaf, Red's female counterpart, as well. Her adventure begins one day when [[Professor Oak]] calls her to his lab and gives her a [[Starter Pokémon|choice of Pokémon]]. Blue challenges Leaf to a [[Pokémon battle]] as soon as they get their Pokémon. A bit later, Professor Oak calls the two back, gives each of them a [[Pokédex]], and sends them on a journey to fulfill their dream of capturing every type of Pokémon. | ||
Leaf travels all over Kanto, filling in the [[Pokédex]] and defeating [[Gym Leader]]s. Her [[rival]] Blue constantly stays one step ahead, and shows up quite a few times to impede her progress. When Leaf eventually reaches the [[Elite Four]], she finds that Blue has beaten her to a milestone yet again and has become the [[Indigo League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}. Leaf defeats Blue in the final battle, and becomes the Champion herself. | Leaf travels all over Kanto, filling in the [[Pokédex]] and defeating [[Gym Leader]]s.
