Alex, Jim and Daisy had left Cerulean city a week ago. They are currently heading to the South of the Cerulean city where the Vermillion City is located. And that is their target.
Alex was taking the duo towards the Vermillion City because of the contest happening there. As for how Alex knew about the question, the credit goes to his good friend, Bill Montgomery.
He called and said that his father's company, the Silph Corp. are organising a tournament for the young trainer.
So Alex thought it might be good for these two student of his. Also he can get battle different gyms on the way as a practice for the league tournament.
The past week of the trio was hectic to say the least. Other than Alex, neither of the two had any experience staying in the wild and look after themselves. It fell on Alex to help them.
For some of the laborious tasks the two were reluctant but Alex used the rivalry between the two as a motivation for their work and it did wonders.
In this week, both of them had almost got accustomed to the life outside the city. Though the pokemon attack they faced was tiresome for them. Alex took them through the general road where there is less chances of attack instead of going directly through the forest and facing the tough ones which might be too much for these kids now.
Both have caught a couple of Pokemons in the past few days.
Jim had a Houndour as a starter and under Alex's guidance caught himself a Pidgey. And a few days later, he also caught a Meowth. Alex then had him bond together with them before he could catch another which he reluctantly agreed.
As for Daphne, she had a seel as a starter and had got an Eevee and a marill from her father before leaving. Of course she had also caught a Pokemon. Seeing her so called rival catching, she herself got a Pokemon.
She caught a non water type Pokemon. It was an Abra. She saw the powers a psychic pokemon wielded in the form of Slowking and starmie so when she heard that Alakazam was equally strong she caught an Abra.
Abra would have escaped had it not for Haunter making sure he didn't teleport away.
Though that Abra spent most of his time, sleep and he could focus on his psychic powers.
Their first official pokemon battle was a one on one between the two themselves.
It had happened the same day, the duo had left the Cerulean city with Alex. When they walked for a few hours and had decided to stop for lunch, Daphne was irritated by Jim who constantly angered her and challenged him.
Alex served served as a referee for the battle and wanted to take a look at the duo's fighting talent as well as what things he can work and train them in the future.

Flashback,
A week ago,
The two new trainers Daisy and Jim stood on opposite side with Alex standing at the center as he served as the referee.
Jim had sent out his Houndour while Daisy sent out a seel.
Jim thought that it was a water type considering that her family owned a water type gym which was correct.
Alex appeared in the middle and stated,” This is the official Pokemon match between Jim Gordon and Daisy Waterflower both if which are from Cerulean city. It is a one on one pokemon battle.
The trainer whose pokemon loses the ability to fight first is the winner. Let the battle begin. ” And he jumped back on the sidelines to see the battle.
The one who started the attack was Jim.
He ordered, ” use Ember, Houndour.”
Houndour did as asked and sent small flames at the seel.
This attack was stopped by Seel, as she said,” water gun.”
A water torrent clashed and extinguishes the flame and headed for the fire type.
Jim anxiously shouted ,” jump out of the way.” Houndour put pressure on his back limbs and jumped up but was grazed by the water on his legs and was thrown off course.
The young fire type was hit and was trying to raise himself from the ground to fight his opponent but he was injured badly from the water attack as well as the crash. Alex noticed that he has a bruise on his leg now making his speed fall significantly.
