"Dear Resident,

We are pleased to inform you that out of thousands of applicants, you have been chosen as one of only twenty four applicants to become a part of the first ever New Trainer Exchange Program as part of goodwill between the eight regions. This is an exciting first step in what we hope will become a truly tremendous step forward in lowering the leaps between new trainers and The Pokemon League. As part of the First Exchange Program, You must arrive at the Kanto Docks in Fuchsia City by no later than three pm in Kanto Time to begin your journey as the boat will leave at 4pm on May 4th. Arriving earlier is encouraged.

As part of the requirements of the New Trainer Exchange Program, you will be in the Janoe region for over a year as the region is the largest in the world. Please be sure to have everything before leaving as you are expected to be in Janoe for quite some time. If you wish to opt out, please call the toll free number at the bottom of the page to allow us time to pick a replacement for you.

Depending on your home region, tickets or boat fair may be included for your arrival in Fuchsia City, otherwise please make your way there as soon as you can.

We can't wait for you to start your brand new journey in Janoe. Thank you for being a part of the New Trainer Exchange Program on behalf of The Pokemon League. We hope to see you there.

Sincerely,

Garret Lyons

Pokemon Champion of Janoe

Across eight regions, twenty four pairs of hungry eyes read and reread the letter. Some with excitement, some with fear, some with apprehension. But all had the same thought. They were going to be the best there ever was.
