At some point in his early life, Ash went on a field trip in a rainy forest and got lost. Scared to the point of tears, he was forced to hide in a hollow tree trunk. Eventually, a group of local Pokémon joined him and cheered him up, which was partially what motivated him to become a Pokémon Trainer.

Ash also enrolled in {{an|Professor Oak}}'s Pokémon Summer Camp when he was young. One day, another camper named {{an|Serena}} got lost in the forest and wounded her leg after getting startled by a {{p|Poliwag}}. Ash, who was looking for the Poliwag, came to her rescue and wrapped a handkerchief around the wounded knee to brace it. He then helped her up and guided her out of the forest.

Years later, Ash began his [[Pokémon journey]] at the age of 10 as a warm-hearted and well-intentioned but stubborn, rash, and amateur [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He was forced to accept a [[Obedience|stubborn]] {{AP|Pikachu}} from Professor Oak as his [[starter Pokémon]] because he woke up late on the day he was set to get his first Pokémon. He was determined to achieve his goal and when Pikachu saw that he was willing to compromise his own safety to keep it safe, the two of them formed an [[Friendship|extremely strong bond]] that has been noticed and remarked upon by many characters in the anime. This unbreakable friendship would set his course for the future.

From that point, Ash still had a lot to learn about becoming a Trainer. The [[Ash's Butterfree|first Pokémon]] he {{pkmn2|caught}} was caught by luck, as he knew absolutely nothing about {{pkmn|battle|battling}}, and he was hesitant to admit when he was wrong. His journey was made even more complicated due to the presence of [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} of [[Team Rocket]], who, after witnessing Pikachu's power, made it their primary objective to steal Pikachu for their boss, {{an|Giovanni}}.
