The truth about Pokémon in the third generation

The truth about Pokémon in the third generation

---

Ash Ketchum was alone when he arrived in the Hoenn region on a quest to catch Pokémon and become a trainer.

It wasn't long before he met Pokémon May Coordinator, and her brother Max, who became friends with all Pokémon.

After leaving, Brock returned to the group.

Welcome to the Hoenn region and welcome to Pokémon just starting out!

Who will join you in your journey?

Treecko

Treecko was the first grass.

Its name literally means gecko tree.

Green in color, the Treecko is a reptile that can scaly walls with thorns in the arms and legs.

While territorial, Treecko is usually calm and uses his tail to predict the weather.

Treecko evolved into Grovyle.

This is Ash's second Pokémon that he caught in the Hoenn region.

It was also Ash's first fully evolved grass Pokémon.

Torchic

Torchic is a kind of fire.

Its name literally means torch chicken.

Torchic is an orange and yellow chicken, with underdeveloped wings.

Males have small black spots near the wings, while females do not.

Torchic evolved into Combusken.

This is a beginner Pokémon that Ash does not own.

May chose her Torchic for her cute looks and sweet nature.

When May ignored her Torchic for Beautifly, Torchic changed dramatically.

Mudkip

Mudkip is the ultimate water.

Its name is a shortened form of the mudskipper - an amphibian that uses its fore fins to walk on land.

Mudkip is a blue amphibian that closely resembles a natural congener, including fins on the head and tail.

It uses fins on the head to detect changes in air, waters, currents, and danger.

It evolved into Marshtomp.

This is the starting Pokémon that Ash Ketchum does not own.

Brock watched as his Mudkip hatched from an egg, where he decided to nurture and nurture it.

Eventually it overcame its vigilance and became very friendly.

So friendly that when it evolved into Marshtomp, it quickly became flirtatious like its owner.
