Red is introduced as a curious 11-year-old | Red is introduced as a curious 10 or 11-year-old boy from [[Pallet Town]]. According to the instruction manuals of {{3v2|Red|Green|Blue}}, Red gained an interest in Pokémon after his best friend, {{ga|Blue}}, stopped playing with him and became a bully, although in the games [[Professor Oak]] says the two have been rivals since infancy. His adventure begins one day when Professor Oak calls the two to his lab for a [[starter Pokémon]]. Red has a choice of a {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}{{sup/1|G}}{{sup/1|RB}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}. Depending on the Pokémon that Red chooses, Blue will choose the Pokémon that has a type advantage over it{{sup/1|G}}{{sup/1|RB}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}. In {{game|Yellow}}, Red was originally intended to get an {{p|Eevee}}, which was swiped by Blue. As a result, Blue keeps the Eevee and Red receives a {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} that Professor Oak caught earlier{{sup/1|Y}}. Blue challenges Red to a battle immediately to test out his new Pokémon, thinking he will easily beat Red. | ||
After Red has made his way to [[Viridian City]] to the north and taken [[Parcel|a package]] back to Oak in Pallet Town, Oak gives Red and Blue each a [[Pokédex]] with which to record data on all known Pokémon in the Kanto region to fulfill Oak's dream of creating a full guide on all Pokémon in Kanto. From here, Red and Blue journey across Kanto, collecting Pokémon to build up their teams, and defeating each of the [[Gym Leader]]s in turn, with Blue always one step ahead, showing up from time to time to impede Red's progress. | After Red has made his way to [[Viridian City]] to the north and taken [[Parcel|a package]] back to Oak in Pallet Town, Oak gives Red and Blue each a [[Pokédex]] with which to record data on all known Pokémon in the Kanto region to fulfill Oak's dream of creating a full guide on all Pokémon in Kanto.
