Littleroot Town
You awaken in the back of a moving truck in Littleroot Town, since your family has just moved here from Johto. Hop out of the truck, and enter your house. Once inside, go upstairs to your room and set your clock. Turn on your PC, and withdraw the single Potion for later. Go back downstairs, and after just missing your dad on the TV, Mom tells you that you should visit your new neighbor, Professor Birch. Birch isn't home, but visit his daughter May (♂ players) / son Brendan (♀ players) upstairs. Birch isn't in his lab either, so head north to Route 101.

Setting foot on Route 101, you'll see the professor being attacked by a wild Poochyena. He tells you to select one of the Pokémon in the bag on the ground. Choose wisely, because this creature will become your starter Pokémon!
These Pokémon include:
- Successor to Charmander and Cyndaquil, Torchic has an advantage against Grass-, Bug-, and Ice-types, but falters when battling Water-, Ground-, and Rock-types. Torchic also gains a secondary Fighting-type by its final form. As a Fire-type, it will have a disadvantage against the first Gym.
Once you choose a Pokémon, the Poochyena will attack you. After defeating it, Birch will take you to his lab, and ask you to visit his child on Route 103, north of Oldale Town.
Head north to Route 103.
Oldale Town
The way to Route 102 is blocked by a researcher so you would have to move north to Route 103.
Speak to the Poké Mart employee in front of the mart in order to get a free Potion, and continue north to Route 103.

Rival battle
For now, your rival will only have one Pokémon; what species it is depends on which Pokémon you chose from Birch's bag. Like past games, your rival will have the Pokémon with a type advantage against yours. Since both Pokémon are still low-leveled, neither knows an attack of their own type yet, so your rival doesn't have much of an advantage just yet. After defeating them, your rival will head back south to Littleroot.
Littleroot Town
After following Birch's kid back to the lab, Birch will give you the Pokédex, and his kid will give you 5 Poké Balls. On your way out of town, your mom will give you a pair of Running Shoes. By holding down the B-Button, you can run twice as fast as the normal walking speed.
Get back to Oldale Town, and head west to Route 102.

Continue west to Petalburg City.
Petalburg City
After visiting the city's Gym, you'll learn that your father will not accept your challenge until you have earned four other Gym badges. Instead, he asks you to help Wally, a resident of Petalburg, catch his first Pokémon. After Norman lends him his Zigzagoon and a Poké Ball, you follow Wally to Route 102, where he successfully catches a Ralts.
After Wally leaves, you're free to head west to Route 104.
