I

A young boy in a red and white cap and green backpack stands in a desert-like environment, looking determined. The scene cuts to a close-up of a Charizard's face, then shows the boy from behind as he turns to face the creature. The Charizard is then seen roaring, its mouth open wide, as the boy raises his hand in a gesture of confrontation or command. The sequence ends with a close-up of the Charizard's face, its eyes narrowed in a fierce expression.
