You've finally been granted your Pokémon Trainer's license, and now you're on your way to becoming the world's greatest Pokémon Trainer! Choose between the Seed Pokémon Bulbasaur, the Lizard Pokémon Charmander and the Tiny Turtle Pokémon Squirtle, as you battle and capture the enormous roster of monsters to train and evolve. From there, you will journey through the Kanto region once again like the games before it - only this time with new features, secrets, and Pokémon to discover (plus some bug fixes and graphical changes).

However, no matter who you choose you can still get all three during the game. At the start of the game you are granted with your typical choice of Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle.
