In events

Let's Go for Number One!

While in the city, Chase findsElaine, along with theplayer (Scottie orBettie), and ask why everyone is gather around. Elaine tells him about the time trials, with him asking to join her team. Elaine introduces Chase to the player, mentioning that he's good at running (along with running his mouth), and that they both came fromPallet Town. She also mentions that his Pikachu isunusual like herEevee, with him mentioning that his Pikachu doesn't like going in itsPoké Ball and that it can useSecret Techniques. Chase also claims that he is good at Pokémon battles, and that he even helped Elaine while on herjourney, to which she claims that she helped him. He then said that they should practice as a team by racing to the square.

After the time trials are over, the player, Elaine, and Chase return to the city to see how they placed. To their shock, they discover thatRed's team placed first. Just then, Red and hisPikachu arrive, alongside his teammatesBlue andLeaf. Blue commends the player's team for almost reaching their time. After a little more competitive banter, Red, Blue, and Leaf leave. Chase vows that he and his partner will become a better sync pair than Red and Pikachu one day, and he and Pikachu race off towards the sunset.

Trivia

• Chase and Elaine are one of two pairs of protagonists where it is unknown which one is based on theplayer character from their games of origin, the other beingElio andSelene.
  • During theLet's Go for Number One!time trial event, both Chase andElaine claim they helped the other one out in battles while inKanto. This may be a reference to the co-op feature fromPokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, which allows two players to battle Trainers together. This may also imply that one is based on the player character, while the other is based on the Support Trainer from the Let's Go! games.
• All versions of Chase use special voice-over lines upon entering a team that contains certain Trainers (regardless of their partner Pokémon) and victory with them. Those Trainers includeRed,Leaf,Blue, Elaine, andProfessor Oak.
