Red

Protagonist · Pallet Town

Red is the male player-character option in the GBA Kanto remakes. Oak’s starter choice begins a journey through the Gyms, Team Rocket’s operations and the League, followed by the Sevii Islands.

  • Story: As the protagonist, Red responds to Blue’s recurring challenges and opens routes through badges, field moves and key items. Postgame Pokédex and island access extend the adventure after the first Champion victory.
  • In the game: Red uses the same battle systems and route access as Leaf. Plan around Generation III’s type-based physical and special categories, normally single-use TMs, version exclusives and trade evolutions.
