Late March.
The long-awaited FireRed and LeafGreen arc had officially begun for Heiduo.

Its main AI program had been created by Chakra, the only traitor among the Three Beasts.
Unfortunately, after following that lead, Heiduo discovered that its contractor was a legitimate construction company with no connection to Team Rocket whatsoever—at least on the surface.
