Greta Parker

Greta Parker is the main character of Pocket Monsters.

Early Life
Greta was born in Pallet Town and spent her whole life in that place until she hit the age 15 and was accepted to Professor Oak's summer camp. Her parents run a day care service in Pallet Town and it is known that her parents has always been helping Professor Oak to cure injured Pokémon at times. Due to the impact of that she was exposed to different Pokémon at their service during her childhood, she had always been interested in Pokémon World. As Greta stated in, she used to go to the same high school as Redwald Walker. Despite they never actually met in person or had any conversation, Greta remembered him as soon as she saw him at Oak's laboratory. Also it was revealed in during her conversation with Madison Dickens that Greta dropped out for some reason and she wanted to keep it a secret.



Kanto Journey - The Beginning
When Greta was accepted to Professor Oak's summer camp to receive a Pokémon Trainer Licence in, she was only 15. She received her first Pokémon, Nidoran, from Professor Oak. She had often been quite nervous when it came to Pokémon, knowing she had to break the ice to finally become a Pokémon Trainer.

The first day she started the summer camp, she encountered her childhood rival Madison Dickens, who secretly threatened her by implying she knew the secret Greta had been keeping, why she dropped out high school. She also remembered Redwald Walker as soon as she saw him. After she received her first Pokémon, she met Redwald in person and they became friends.

During her early times at the summer camp, Nidoran's shy attitude was hard at times for Greta to bear with.

Greta was tasked to solve a riddle with her Nidoran in. Although she struggled to understand the context as a whole, she came up with the idea of going to the library and check the battle related books. At the time, Greta proved her ability of staying calm and being subtle wit when necessary. After she discovered the item and its location, she and Nidoran worked in sync and went to playground to find it. Despite they were attacked by a Diglett in the playground, Greta and Nidoran had their first Pokémon Battle and worked as a team and defeated him to get their item. That incident improved the relationship between her and Nidoran, and helped each other trust even more.

In, Greta was tasked with catching a brand new Pokémon in the Pallet Jungle. Before she got started to that, she had an argue with Madison at the laboratory. Madison accused Greta being weak and untalented to catch a strong Pokémon in the jungle. As a response to that, Greta challenged Madison to a Pokémon Battle after they catch their Pokémon to determine who caught the "stronger" Pokémon. Madison agreed with that and left the laboratory to catch a Pokémon.

After that, Greta and Redwald set off as well. In the jungle, Greta's first opponent was a wild Spearow. Despite Spearow was quite compelling Pokémon, Greta managed to defeat him with her Nidoran. Unlike what Redwald thought, Greta did not attempt to catch him, instead just fainted. When Redwald asked why she did not want to catch such strong Pokémon as Spearow, Greta stated that she had always been dreaming of catching a Caterpie. Eventually, she encountered one and she had a battle with her. In the end, she caught the Caterpie and expended her team for the first time.

In the end of the day, Greta met Madison as promised. But instead battling her, Greta stated that she would not take the bait and instead she would focus on bonding with her Pokémon rather than proving herself to be the strongest Trainer.

While Greta, Redwald and were chased by a wild Kangaskhan in Pallet Jungle, Greta used her Caterpie outside of a battle for the first time in. That was the first time Greta faced Caterpie since she caught her. Caterpie appeared to be quite domestic and loyal towards Greta, listening to what she says. She used her String Shot move to slow down the Kangaskhan and let the others escape further.
