It has been 30 years since ash became champion, everyone considered him to be the greatest trainer, you are a kid who recently moved into pallet town, about to get your first starter.. shockingly when you arrive at professor oaks lab, oak isnt the only one there..

Ash was chatting to professor oak like it was nothing

Ash: “how’ve you been professor?” Prof. Oak: “oh ive been alright.. considering retirement soon”
