View source for Starter Pokémon

{{stub}}
'''Starter Pokémon''' are selectable Pokémon that players will start off with as their initial Pokémon when embarking on a region.

Each starter-Pokémon subset comprises a traditional tri-elemental paradigm: one [[Grass_(type)|Grass]]-type option, one [[Fire_(type)|Fire]]-type option, and one [[Water_(type)|Water]]-type option. The only extension is [[Kanto]]'s subset wherein the [[Electric_(type)|Electric]]-type [[Pikachu]] can be selected as a quaternary option.

Starter Pokémon selected from the lab do '''not''' have a [[Special Counterparts#Shiny Pokémon|shiny]] chance.

==Regional Subsets==
Due to the regional linearity of storyline progression, players will start afresh each time they visit a new region while their previous-region Pokémon are temporarily [[Pokémon Center|PC]]-locked; as such, those who advance through all the currently available regions will obtain a Pokémon from each regional subset, as they will need to start off with a new Pokémon thereupon landing in the region.
