Blue was on the outskirts of Viridian Forest with his Charmander and Venomoth. Currently, The bug Pokémon was hovering over some flames made by the fire type, trying to stay away from them.
"Stop fighting it." Blue instructed. "Fire creates heat, heat creates up draft, and the up draft would allow you to get away. So stop fighting the flames and relax!"
With its body burning up, it fought ever instict it had and did what it was told. Now outstretched, the Venomoth's wings caught the wind and sent it a safe distance.
"That's enough training. Both of you, return."
They returned to their Poké Balls, and he took a moment to look at the poison type, noticing it was badly burnt.
"Looks like I'll need to get you go a Centre." He walked further into Route 2, into the forest. "But first, I have a Kangaskhan to catch."
Despite not being native, there had been talks about one such Pokémon wondering around. Perhaps it had wondered here for some reason, or maybe some Trainer released it. Whatever the reason, Blue wasn't about to lose the chance to catch a rare Pokémon.
After walking almost an hour, he found an open area and brought out Charmander. This was the perfect place to see it coming.
Standing there, he waited and listened for any movement. He was attacked a few times, but by nothing his starter couldn't handle. He even got attacked by a Spearow that dropped a Pokéflute after getting scratched in the face.
"Come on. I know you're out there." The Kangaskhan was proving reluctant to show herself. But he'd wait all day if he had to.
