Five years ago, a young man named Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town, Kanto started his Pokémon journey. Although he had been on his journey for a long time, he still has yet to fullfill his goal of being the very best like no one ever was. Throughout his journey he had made many friends along the way, but he also had a best friend, which was his first pokémon, a Pikachu.
He and his Pikachu have traveled through four regions together, Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh in that order. After he finished his adventure through Sinnoh, he went home to Kanto and took a break, but it looks like he has taken a longer break than he had expected, and now he is ready to continue his journey and head for another region he had not traveled through yet.
When will he be heading to the new region, you ask? Today of course. Ash and Pikachu will be on their way right now!
