Littleroot Town[edit | edit source]
The game begins with you in the back of a moving truck after having moved to Littleroot Town
. Head out of the truck and make your way upstairs to inspect the clock. Then head across the way into Professor Birch's house and speak with his wife. Head up stairs and inspect the pokeball.
Route 101[edit | edit source]
Route 101, the first route which Trainers from Littleroot Town traverse on, is home to a wide array of different Pokémon. Hence, Professor Birch often performs his studies here. Heading north from Littleroot, the route forms a "U", turning north and immediately backpedaling east near the first patch of grass. A ledge blocks the way north, letting only southbound travelers avoid the grass. Route 101 then turns north into another patch of grass as it heads west. At this point, the path travels through the last of three grass patches. Route 101 then turns north as it enters Oldale.
When you first reach the area you will be prompted to choose your starter pokemon. Be careful not to speed through the text and accidently select the wrong one! After obtaining your new Pokemon you will find you are back in Littleroot Town.
