- Ash Ketchum: Hey, get out of there!
- [Rattata runs away from his backpack]
- Pokédex: A forest Pokémon - Rattata. It likes cheese, nuts, fruits and berries.
- Ash Ketchum: Yeah, but this isn't a forest, it's an open field.
- Pokédex: It also comes out in open fields to steal food from stupid travelers.
- Ash Ketchum: So that means I'm stupid?
- Pikachu: [laughs] Pika... Pika!
- Ash Ketchum: [looks at the sky and sees Ho-oh] I wonder what that is?
- Pokédex: There is no data. There are still Pokémon yet to be identified.
- Ash Ketchum: Professor Oak? Where's my Pokémon?
- Professor Samuel Oak: Your Pokémon?
- Ash Ketchum: Yeah. I'm ready.
- Professor Samuel Oak: You look more like you're ready for bed, not for Pokémon training. I hope you're not going to train in your pajamas.
- Misty: Hey, I got a bite! Oh wow I really think this could be a big one.
- [Ash fly's into the air and hits the ground]
- Misty: Nah, it's just a kid. Oh and a Pokémon. Aww, are you okay?"
- Ash Ketchum: Yeah, I'm okay.
- Misty: Not you! Look what you've done to that poor little thing. Is it breathing?
- Pikachu: Pikachu.
- Professor Samuel Oak: It's name is Pikachu.
- Ash Ketchum: It's so cute it's the best of all.
- Professor Samuel Oak: You'll see.
- Ash Ketchum: Oh, hi Pikachu.
- [Ash gives Pikachu a hug]
- Pikachu: Pika.
- [Pikachu shocks Ash]
- Professor Samuel Oak: It's also known as Electric Mouse. It's usually shy but can sometimes have an electrifying personality.
- Ash Ketchum: I see what you mean.
- Professor Samuel Oak: Shocking, isn't it?
- Ash Ketchum: Spearows! Do you know who I am? I'm Ash from the town of Pallet. I am destined to be the worlds number one Pokémon Master. I can't be defeated by the likes of you.
