Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town in Kanto Region was so excited about getting his first Pokemon on his 10th birthday that he overslept.

When he finally woke up and goes to Professor Oak's lab, he initially chooses a squirtle but he istoo late.

Interesting fact that Gary Oak, the professor's grandson did get the squirtle.

Gary's Blastoise is referred to as his starter while in the Johto Region.

Ash also chose a charmander and bulbasaur as well , but he was too late for all 3 starter Pokemon, instead he receives a pikachu which is an electric type mouse Pokemon.

It was even mentioned that electric Pokemon are usually uncooperative starting Pokemon.

In fact Ash had to earn pikachu's trust, which came with the gigantic spearow attack. Spearows do not like Pokemon with trainers apparently and can really do a lot of damage even if they have a type disadvantage, especially if they really gang up with a whole lot of different flocks, against one lone pikachu, who was ignoring his trainer.

Pikachu almost died, but Ash did earn pikachu's trust.

They became Friends For Life.
