(Yes I'm geeking it out...Sue me...)
This is so you can start your own Pokemon adventure. If you know a lot about Pokemon (Like myself) you can have a more advanced trainer but if you don't know a lot you can just be starting your journey or have up to three of your final party of six.
When you start your journey, if you go to a Professor, you are given the choice of a fire, grass, or water type which are listed as starter pokemon:
Bulbasaur-Grass
Charmander-Fire
Squirtle-Water
Chikorita-Grass
Cyndaquil-Fire
Totodile-Water
Treecko-Grass
Torchic-Fire
Mudkip-Water
Turtwig-Grass
Chimchar-Fire
Piplup-Water
You are able to start your journey in any of the six regions and normally you start at ten but can start older

In each region you can collect eight gym badges from the gym leaders, travel to the cities, expand your pokemon collection and compete to be a Pokemon Cordinator.
Unlike a trainer a pokemon cordinator trains their pokemon to perform their moves not to battle but to show the strength and beauty of their pokemon (think like a beauty pagent).
You can travel around by train (only in Saffron City and Goldenrod City), bike, by flying (only if you have a flying type), swimming (only if you have a water type), rollerblades, skateboard, running (by pokemon or on foot) and by boat (only in Olivine and Celadon City).
Pokemon Types are:
Normal
Fighting
Flying
Poison
Ground
Rock
Bug
Ghost
Steel
Fire
Water
Grass
Electric
Psychic
Ice
Dragon
Dark
You can also play as a member of Team Rocket as well as a Pokemon Breeder. A Pokemon breeder is one who enjoys pokemon and loves seeing the different ways they grow and develop, they can battle but they prefer to raise and coddle their pokemon. These are people who breed pokemon for pets and study and many times have roots in pokemon professoring.
