Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
Pokémon Origins is a role-playing game in which players join Professor Oak to research mysterious creatures called Pokémon. As a new trainer, you explore various locations to fill your Pokédex while battling Gym Leaders to earn Badges. Your ultimate goal is to defeat the Pokémon League to become the champion and enter the Hall of Fame.
Story
Pokémon Origins
In this world live creatures called Pokémon. Humans and Pokémon have lived, worked, and played together in harmony for ages.
Nevertheless, there are still numerous mysteries surrounding them. In order to find out more about these creatures, many scientists-such as Professor Oak-have dedicated their lives to Pokémon research.
Your Journey Begins
Professor Oak, who happens to live in the same town as you, gives you a Pokémon. He asks you to complete your newly obtained Pokédex by exploring many places and finding many Pokémon.
Your journey starts when you receive your first Pokémon!
Become an Ultimate Trainer
Another goal of this game is to become an ultimate Pokémon Trainer. While you are continuing on your adventure, you and your Pokémon will grow together.
You will visit many towns and face many Gym Leaders at various Pokémon Gyms. As a reward for defeating them, you'll obtain Badges.
Once you have enough Badges, you can challenge a Pokémon Trainer's final goal... the Pokémon League.
The Hall of Fame
Once you are victorious at the Pokémon League and become the champ, you'll be able to enter the Hall of Fame. Then, you'll be acknowledged as an ultimate Pokémon Trainer.
How to Play
Catch Many Different Pokémon!
One of your goals is to complete your Pokédex by collecting lots of different kinds of Pokémon. When you catch a new Pokémon, its data will automatically be recorded in your Pokédex. Visit Professor Oak every once in a while to have him rate how complete your Pokédex is.
To catch more Pokémon and complete your Pokédex, you will need to trade with the FireRed version. You can use the Game Boy Advance Game Link cable (sold separately) or the Wireless Adapter (included). Work together with your friends to get your Pokédex as complete as possible!

Even in places where it appears as if there is nothing, there might be something. If you feel something needs to be checked, check it with the A Button.
Checking Things
You can check certain things placed around you, such as a map on the wall or a TV.
Read the Trainer's Tips
In towns and on the roads you'll find useful adventure information in the form of "Trainer's Tip" signs. To read a "Trainer's Tip," all you have to do is face the sign. Make sure you check them out. There are also other signs which tell you the location of the towns, houses, and other information.
Pokémon
You can check the stats of your party Pokémon and can also switch their order. You can carry up to six Pokémon with you at a time; this is your party.
