The story is set in the Unova region, where a young trainer named Black embarks on a journey to become the Pokémon Champion. Black is determined and ambitious, driven by his dream to create a team of powerful Pokémon and challenge the Pokémon League. Along the way, he encounters a variety of characters, including his rival, White, who is a Pokémon Trainer with her own aspirations and a strong sense of independence.
The narrative begins with Black receiving his first Pokémon, Tepig, from Professor Juniper.
