Samuel Greyson wants to be a Ghost Type specialist, but living on the small Dewford Island makes that difficult — his mother doesn't want him to leave on his Pokémon Journey, and there are no Ghost Types nearby to catch. His ticket out comes from a discovery made while preparing for an impromptu challenge. Armed with impossible knowledge, Sam sets out to head into the world and take his dreams into his own hands. Set in the Pokémon anime and game world with a more grounded approach, the story follows a classic journey across Johto and Kanto just before Ash Ketchum's own start. No growth is immediately handed to Sam — any development he must work for.
