"The Viridian forest is the most likely place," Ash said to Pikachu.
They had arrived back in Pallet down an hour ago and after having a quick rest at his mum's house and catching up with professor Oak they were ready to set off again.
Ash was no stranger to adventure but he was still sad to leave Pallet town behind again. He was confident in what he had to do but this adventure was completely different from journeying to collect all the gym badges. Every single world, not just his own were counting in him.
"Come on Pikachu," he said striding off towards Viridian forest.
