Background

Red is a main protagonist of the Pokémon series of games. Growing up in Pallet Town, Red, alongside his rival Blue Oak, were chosen by Professor Oak to help him complete his Pokédex invention. In order to do so, Red was tasked with travelling the Kanto region in search of as many species of Pokémon as he could find. Along with this journey, Red took on Kanto's gym leaders and Pokémon League, eventually becoming a Pokémon Champion.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Red’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Red was born in the quiet Pallet Town to a single mother and unknown father. With Pallet Town being as small as it is, everyone was very familiar with one another, and thus Red quickly made a friend. This friend was Blue Oak, grandson of the famous Professor Oak. Red and Blue would not only become friends, but also intense rivals.

As the two boys grew up and reached their 11th birthdays, it was finally time for them to receive their very first Pokémon, and kick off their journeys as Pokémon Trainers. After choosing their starters (with Red choosing Charmander, and Blue choosing Squirtle,) Professor Oak also entrusted them with a Pokédex, his newest invention which would record data of any Pokémon they encountered. With these Pokédex, Red and Blue were tasked with catching as many different Pokémon as they could.

Red travelled across the Kanto region, catching as many Pokémon as possible and becoming friends with each and every one, while on the way taking on several Gym challenges and earning their Gym Badges. During this quest, however, Red was soon caught up with the plot of Team Rocket, and their criminal ways.

Naturally drawn to doing what’s right, and knowing that his Pokémon were strong enough to take on the challenge, Red would chase Team Rocket across the region, and knock out their headquarters left and right. This would finally lead him to the eighth and final Gym, which was led by the leader of Team Rocket, Giovanni.

Although the battle was incredibly intense, Red and his Pokémon were able to pull through, not only completely ending the Team Rocket conflict, but also earning himself the final Gym Badge. Finished with the Gym challenge, Red made his way to the Indigo Plateau, where the Elite Four resided. Here, Red would take his shot at becoming Pokémon League Champion.

Red defeated the Elite Four (Lorelei, Bruno, Agatha, and Lance,) and was ready to claim his title as League Champion, until he discovered that someone had defeated the Elite Four challenge before him. This was Blue, who waited for Red in the Champion’s chambers. For one last time, Red and Blue engaged in battle.

The battle was impossibly tough; Charizard against Blastoise. However, Red’s genuine love for his Pokémon was a power far stronger than any that Blue possessed, and he was able to barely pull through. With Blue defeated, Red was crowned the new Champion of the Indigo League.

Red did not stay to defend his title as Champion, however. With Blue leaving the League entirely to recover from his loss and find himself again, Red decided that he still needed to complete the Pokédex, and resigned from the Indigo League; Lance quickly took over as Champion, remaining undefeated for the next three years.

With the location of the final Pokémon on his Pokédex, Mew, being completely elusive, Red left everything behind to search for it. This led him to Mount Silver, which was the highest peak in the entire Johto region. Red would seemingly stay on this mountain for a very long time, standing at its peak and looking down at the world from above.

Soon, Red would find himself confronted by another former-Indigo League Champion; Gold. Red and Gold engaged in a legendary Pokémon battle atop Mount Silver, which is said to be one of the most legendary Pokémon battles of all time. Gold barely claimed victory over Red, and Red suddenly vanished from the Mountain.

Red disappeared completely from the world for the next, only living on in the memory of the people of the world as a legendary trainer. However, four years after his defeat atop Mount Silver, the 19 year old Red made his triumphant return. Making his way to the Unova region, Red was entered into the Champion’s division of the Pokémon World Tournament. Here, Red faced off against several legendary Champions, and showed off his extraordinary skill.

Two years later, Red and his old rival, Blue, would run into each other again, now having made up for their bitter rivalry as children. These two legendary trainers would be brought to the Alola region, where they would be asked to participate as the final challenge of the Battle Tree. Red and Blue agreed to do so, where they would take on any trainer who managed to reach them.

Attack Potency: Wall level (Potency) (Comparable to his durability). Far Higher with Bonds | At least Building level (Potency), likely Far Higher (Trainer Pokémon are normally stronger then wild Pokémon also grow stronger with Badges[1], with Red being a League Champion level trainer his team is easily superior to a wild Rhyhorn, who can collapse and topple buildings through tackling[2]). Up to Country level (Potency) with Bonds (If the trainers bonds are close with a Pokémon, it can hit harder then normal and is described to be the true source of their maximum potential brought out by the trainer. It's noted by Cyrus that one can turn their bonds with their Pokémon into strength[3]. Red is considered a legendary trainer and became Champion of Kanto. Only Champion level Pokémon and trainers are allowed within Cerulean Cave due to how dangerous the Pokémon are in there[4], with this being in reference to Mewtwo[5], being noted to have its battle abilities raised to the ultimate ability[6], and referred to as the most powerful Pokémon of all in the Mystery Dungeon games[7], putting it relative if not above Rayquaza, who destroyed a meteor that was of this size[8] that Xatu described as something that messes with the very balance of the world and would cause great destruction if it hit[9])

Durability: Wall level (Humans can tank explosions that destroy an entire wooden bridge[10]. Trainers are unaffected by falls that cause the screen to shake[11]). Far Higher with Bonds (Bonds have showcased that the connection between the trainer and their Pokémon make it to where the trainer feels just as damaged as the Pokémon in battles[12]. Bonds naturally turn both Pokémons strength and humans strength into power, extreme examples showcase Brendan/May with their Mega Rayquaza and taking no damage from the impact of Mega Rayquaza crashing through a meteor[13]. Less extreme examples include Red tanking his Charizard flying down from an attack from Mewtwo[14] and Charizard flying into him from Mewtwo's telekinesis[14]. Can take hits from Pokémon[15], like Sharpedo[15].

Attack Speed: Average Human Speed. Far Higher with Bonds | At least Supersonic (Pokémon are able to dodge moves like sonic boom, screech metal sound, and supersonic). Massively Hypersonic with Bonds (As Champion level Pokémon Trainer and Teams are considered capable of dealing with Legendaries, they should be comparable to Raikou, who is noted to embody lightning speed and came down with the lightning bolt)

Reaction Speed: Average Human Reactions. Far Higher with Bonds (Bonds are the result of the connection between a Pokémon and their trainer[19], where the trainer and the Pokémon are completely in sync[20] and the Pokémon will make sure to listen to its trainers commands, even if its asleep. Due to commanding his Pokémon's every action, he should be able to react as fast as them) | At least Supersonic. Massively Hypersonic with Bonds

Stamina: Superhuman (Red was able to travel across the entirety of Kanto, topple Team Rocket, earn every Gym Badge, and become Pokémon League Champion, without taking a rest) | Likely Superhuman (Red’s Pokémon have shown to fight for multiple days alongside him, although their moves are limited by PP and need to be recharged fairly frequently)

Range: Standard Melee, Far Higher with Pokémon moves

Intelligence: Unknown Intelligence

Knowledge: Grandmaster level (Red is able to commandeer seven wildly different Pokémon with extreme proficiency, rising to the top as a legendary trainer. He’s defeated people such as Giovanni and Lance, who each have several years of Pokémon experience under their belt. His Pokémon’s intelligences should essentially be an extension of Red’s battle expertise. Red should scale to other champions as well who can use and fight such Pokémon as Metagross, who is smarter than a supercomputer)

Explanations

Status Effects

The following is an explanation of the various status effects of Pokémon

Status Effects
Name Effect Apperances
Burned Reduces one's physical attack and takes damage overtime from the burns. Usually caused by Fire type moves and generally lasts indefinitely unless an external item, ability like shed skin, or move like rest is used. In Generation 1, a burned Pokémon takes damage equal to 1/16 of its maximum health. In Generation 2, a burned Pokémon takes damage equal to 1/8 of its maximum health. In Generation 8 onward, a burned Pokémon takes damage equal to 1/16 of its maximum health. Burn status can be caused by the following moves: Beak Blast (if a Pokémon makes contact with the user of the move during the move's charging phase), Blaze Kick, Blazing Torque, Blue Flare, Burning Bulwark (If contact is made with the user of the move), Burning Jealously (If the Pokémon has increased stats during that turn), Ember, Fire Blast, Fire Fang, Fire Punch, Flame Wheel, Flamethrower, Flare Blitz, Fling (if holding a Flame Orb), Heat Wave, Ice Burn, Infernal Parade, Inferno, Matcha Gotcha, Lava Plume, Psycho Shift (If the user of the move is already inflicted with the burn status), Pyro Ball, Sacred Fire, Sandsear Storm, Scald, Scorching Sands, Searing Shot, Secret Power (when used on a volcano), Shadow Fire, Sizzly Slide, Steam Eruption, Tri Attack, and Will-O-Wisp. Most Pokémon Games
Freeze Prevents any action in battle. Usually caused by Ice type moves and generally only lasts for multiple turns, they can be thawed out early if hit by a fire move. The thaw out chance ranges from generation, in Generation 2 the thaw out chance is a 25/256 chance. In Generation 3, the thaw out chance is 20% each turn. In Pokémon Champions, the thaw out chance is 25% each turn. In Generation 1, a frozen Pokémon cannot break out unless hit by a fire-type move that can inflict burn or if an opponent uses the move Haze. Frozen status can be caused by the moves: Blizzard, Freeze-Dry, Freezing Glare, Ice Beam, Ice Fang, Ice Punch, Powder Snow, Secret Power (when used in snow or ice weather), Shadow Chill, or Tri Attack. Most Pokémon Games
Frostbite In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, the freeze status conditions is replcaaed with frostbite. Frostbite has the Pokémon lose 1/16 of their maximum health every turn and reduces damage dealt by a frostbitten Pokémon's special moves. Pokémon Legends: Arceus
Paralysis Has a chance of preventing any action in battle and lowers speed stat. Usually caused by Electric type skills, it lasts indefinitely without external help, any ability like shed skin, or a move like rest. In later games, attacking a shocked enemy is guaranteed to cause a critical hit. Paralysis in general has a 25% chance of having a Pokémon be unable to attack asides from Pokémon Champions. In Generation 1, paralysis reduces a Pokemon's speed by 75% rounded down due to a stats modification glitch (along with this, using moves like agility would return the dropped speed to normal and double it and the speed drop would stay even after being cured of Paralysis using an item or through Rest). In Generation 2, the irregularities are fixed. In Generations 7 and 8 the paralysis reduces the Pokémon's speed by 50%. In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, the paralysis is changed to reduce the affected Pokémon's movement speed during battle. In Pokémon Champions, paralyzed Pokémon have a 12.5% chance to be fully paralyzed. The ability to paralyze can be done by the following moves: Body Slam, Bolt Strike, Bounce, Buzzy Buzz, Combat Torque, Dire Claw, Discharge, Dragon Breath, Fling (if holding a Light Ball), Force Palm, Freeze Shock, G-Max Befuddle, G-Max Stun Shock, G-Max Volt Crash, Glare, Lick, Nuzzle, Psycho Shift (if user of the attack is already paralyzed), Secret Power (When used on plain terrain, building floors, link battles, Sky Battles, Distortion World, or Electric Terrain is in effect), Shadow Bolt, Spark, Splishy Splash, Stoked Sparksurfer, Stun Spore, Thunder, Thunder Fang, Thunder Punch, Thunder Shock, Thunder Wave, Thunderbolt, Tri Attack, Volt Tackle, Wildbolt Storm, and Zap Cannon. Most Pokémon Games
Poison Depletes health at the end of each turn, often persisting on the field. In Generation 1 a poisoned Pokémon takes damage equal to 1/16 of their maximum health at the end of every turn. A badly poisoned Pokémon still takes 1/16 of their maximum health at first, however the damage increases by 1/16 each time it takes poison damage. In Generation 2, the damage is lowered to 1/8 of its maximum damage and poison damage taken by a badly poisoned Pokémon doesn't interact with other types of recurrent damage. From Generation 1 to 4 all poisoned Pokémon in a trainer's party loses 1 HP for every four steps taken (in FireRed and LeafGreen it's instead every five steps). In Generation 1 to 3, the poison Pokémon will take poison damage until they faint. In Generation 4, a poisoned Pokémon's HP will be brought to 1 and then they will cure themself of poison. In Generation 5 to 8 poisoned Pokémon no longer take poison damage outside of battle. In Legends: Z-A, poisoned Pokémon take damage whil it is outside its Poké Ball. The moves that inflict poison are as follows: Baneful Bunker (If Pokémon makes contact with the user of the move), Barb Barrage, Cross Poison, Dire Claw, Fling (if holding Poison Barb), G-Max Befuddle, G-Max Malodor, G-Max Stun Shock, Gunk Shot, Mortal Spin, Noxious Toruqe, Poison Gas, Poison Jab, Poison Powder, Poison Sting, Poison Tail, Psychco Shift (if the user of the move is poisoned), Secret Power (When used in tall grass), Shell Side Arm, Sludge, Sludge Bomb, Sludge Wave, Smog, Toxic Spikes, Toxic Thread, and twineedle. Most Pokémon Games
Confusion Confused Pokémon become indecisive and may either attack a random enemy or attack themself. In Generations 1-6 it was a 50% chance of the Pokémon hurting itself in confusion. In Generation 7 and onwards, it was a 33% chance of the Pokémon hurting itself in confusion. In Legends: Z-A, confusion causes the Pokémon to move sporadically. The following moves cause confusion: Axe Kick, Chatter, Confuse Ray, Confusion, Dizzy Punch, Dynamic Punch, Flatter, G-Max Gold Rush, G-Max Smite, Hurricane, Magical Torque, Psybeam, Rock Climb, Secret Power (only when used on a rocky surface), Shadow Panic, Signal Beam, Strange Steam, Supersonic, Swagger, Sweet Kiss, Teeter Dance, and Water Pulse.

In Generation 2 sleep lasts 2-8 turns, the Pokémon has a 1/4 chance oto wake up in 2 turns or 5 turns and a 1/8 chanc eot wake up in 3 turns, 4 turns, 6 turns, or 7 turns. In Generation 3 sleep lasts 2-5 turns. In Generation 5, sleep now lasts 2-4 turns. In Pokémon Champions, sleep now lasts 2-3 turns.

    Junichi Masuda: We created Platinum with a new method of determining the game's direction that was based on the image of one Pokémon - Giratina. When I imagined Giratina, the idea of a "reversed world" came to my mind. I thought of concepts such as "E=mc2" and matter and antimatter. There is no top or bottom, no left or right. We increased the number of developers for Diamond and Pearl, so we wanted to clarify the game concepts for the team before we started the project Its better to hammer out the overall vision of the game first, and then all the team members will work towards that vision by throwing out ideas. The concept of "ultimate" was what we started out with for this title."
