In a forest somewhere in Kanto, there once was a lonely Pichu. This Pichu, who was still very young, went through a certain encounter and farewell. This all took place shortly before Satoshi and his partner Pikachu started their journey. This is the story of how everything began.
----------
This must-see first episode not only depicts Satoshi, Go and Pichu, who hadn't become a Pikachu yet at the time, as children, but also shows us the scene from the first episode of the first "Pocket Monsters" anime series where the now 10 year old Satoshi meets Pikachu from Pikachu's point of view.
