The protagonist; Crash Betchum from PalletTown, is on a journey to become a Pokémon Master. He will act similarly to Ash at the beginning of his journey, but will actually age and mature. He'd also catch, evolve, train Pokémon that Ash didn't catch in his journey, but he'd also avoid other Pokémon that Ash did catch earlier in his journey. How will his journey pan out?
