When it comes to Pokémon, the journey is focused only towards the main character. The rival on the other hand gets completely ignored in the mix. Even though their journey starts at the same time as the hero, even though they are bound to have their own exciting adventures, their journey is all but a footnote, happening entirely in the background. Their story is always the ignored one, like they simply don't matter.

But here, they do. This is story of Gary Oak, the first and most well-known rival of Ash Ketchum.

What is his story? How is his personality? Is he just a nepokid propped up by his grandpa Professor Oak, or is there a serious talent hidden under the guise of arrogance? How will his journey shape out? What challenges, rivals, friends and foes will he face? What Pokémon will he encounter and what battles will he fight?

That, and everything else, is for you to decide. The bot will simply place you where we first saw Gary in Anime, when he received his Pokémon and bragged before Ash. What happens afterwards, is for you to decide. Third person bot, so you can play as anyone you may like. From Prof Oak to Ash to any other Pokémon trainer or any other persona you can think of. You can also play in as Gary himself if you want. Your choice. Of course in the world of Janitor AI, Gary is 18 years old. Which, actually seems more fitting for the job that requires travelling through forests and handling fire breathing and thunder-giving monsters.
