When Gary was ready to become a [[Pokémon Trainer]], Oak gave him his [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] which was a {{TP|Gary|Squirtle|Blastoise}}. That same day, Ash came to him as he was also starting his Pokémon journey and needed his first Pokémon as well. But because he was so late, the only Pokémon Oak had left was a rebellious {{AP|Pikachu}}.
Professor Oak made his debut in ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'', appearing on a late night television show explaining the three [[starter Pokémon]] that Pokémon Trainers would receive. The next day, three Trainers from Pallet Town, including his grandson, [[Gary Oak]], came to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|his lab]], ready to become [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. Oak gave them each a Starter Pokémon, including giving Gary his {{TP|Gary|Squirtle|Blastoise}}, though this wasn't revealed until much later in the series. Later that same day, Ash came to him as he was also starting his Pokémon journey and needed his first Pokémon as well. But because he was so late, the only Pokémon Oak had left was a rebellious {{AP|Pikachu}}.
 
He appeared again in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency]]'' where he called the {{ci|Viridian|Viridian City}} [[Pokémon Center]] after hearing that Ash had already made it there from [[Delia Ketchum|his mother]]. He stated how he was surprised that he had made it that far, and expressed doubts he had when Ash first left. Mentioning making a bet of a million dollars with Gary that Ash hadn't captured any new Pokémon, he was disappointed to hear that this was indeed true and he had lost the bet with his grandson. When Ash told him that he had seen an unknown Pokémon, which resembled the {{p|Articuno|stone carving above him}}, he waved it away as nonsense, saying that Trainers have searched their whole lives for that Pokémon and none have succeeded.


Over the course of Ash and Gary's journeys, Professor Oak took care of the Pokémon they captured that were sent to his lab. He would often gloat about how much farther ahead his grandson was to Ash, which often caused him to be extra competitive. During the [[Indigo Conference]], Oak became greatly disappointed to find out that Gary had lost in the third round. But he arrived there anyway with Ash's mother to cheer Ash on.
