Santa's giving all of US a STARTER!!!!

[MultiWishMaker]

Since Pokemon has been out there has always been a way for US to get a starter whether it be from a Lab,a Bag, a Briefcase, or good 'ol fashioned theft,and now it looks like "Saint Nick" is gonna give us an early present in September!! It looks as if you will recieve Tsutajja,Mijimaru,and Pokabu in a "Christmas styled box" and by that I mean you will open up a present from someone to get your precious 5th Gen starter!?
Do you like this new way of obtaining your starter or not?
And also which way of getting starters do you like the best?
Ex:1st/2nd Gen= Lab,3rd Gen = Bag, and 4thDP=Theft from briefcase lol,or Platinum=Gift from Briefcase.


Black and White Extended Trailer, Also showing how you get your starter!!

REMEMBER THIS IS NOT CONFIRMED AND WE MAY GET THEM IN AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT WAY.

I really don't think the Pokemon are in that box...
I think they're totally separate.
Also, listen closely to Mijimaru's cry. I swear it's saying 'Piplup'.

According to reliable sources, the main characters in this game are actually quite a bit older that previous ones (16-ish methinks).

I heard that to but I think 15 is a good age, I'm wondering why they're just putting the trainers at an older age?? Maybe they realized more people this age actually play pokemon, thus looking at a person around 5 playing and they can't get past the 2nd gym badge

Still, getting a Pokemon for a birthday present isn't out of the question.

Yeah, but I find it unlikely. Especially now that the professor for that game has been revealed.

WHAT? A female professor?! IMPOSSIBLE!

Why would you think it unlikely to get the starters as a birthday gift is unlikely because the professor has been revealed? Not flaming, just wondering.

[Eddie]

I think that the new professor will give you the starter as a present then take the two that you did not pick back.

[MultiWishMaker]

Hhmmm..............maybe if this present thing is the way you get them maybe someone else gives you the starters it doesn't need to necessarely be the Prof. she may just be there for Pokedex purposes, but this is just a theory.

[The Spirit of Time]

How come they will send the 3 starters as a present? In a present, you should take everything in it, not choose something out of it.

Maybe the three starters are in seperate boxes? Like, say the video was showing the character opening Mijimaru's box and immeadeately after it shows the three starters you can choose from. Maybe it's showing which starters are in which present?

I said Mijimaru cause the box was BLUE

[LEAF]

or maybe you ask for a certain pokemon as a gift
or you are quized and you get the pokemon most like you thatd b intersting

[MultiWishMaker]

At this time anythings possible I suppose, but I highly doubt that Leaf.

[Super Zekrom]

I think I know! What if the Prof. is your mom and when you come down stairs she asks you to choose a starter as a gift, then she will explain why she gave you the present. As usual she will ask you to take a pokedex and collect data for her studies.

This sounds interesting.

[Mijumaru]

But in Europe it comes out later. ):

[Ningamer]

...
I stand corrected.
MultiWishMaker, you are psychic, I swear.

[OMGITSJAD]

Heh. The present has one of each Pokeball, you just choose which you want between the 3 because you're supposed to share with your friends. I doubt the Prof. is your Mom, considering they've already shown the main characters Mom and Aragai isn't her. It's probably just a random present, not a birthday thing because they have to share and your rivals aren't related to you.

Well Cheren and Belle need a starter as well.

I think Prof Aragi is like Prof Oak, she sees something speacil (4 s's in a row) in you and she gives u a pressie. What I don't understand is how the room is magicly become a mess after getting your starter
Also Tsutaja and Pokabu's sound like bags unzipping and Mijumaru sounds like Piplup, as mentioned before.

[[TRDRS]PokeTrader]

Its not really a present from saint nick, watch the beginning video of the games and you will see in the starter town that Professer Araragi walks into your house then leaves and it show you standing next to Belle and Cheren when you open up the present from Araragi and choose your starter. Thats how it goes.

[Sunny]

Hahaha. xD
Anyone else notice how Tsutaaja crosses his arms at 2:46 like "Hurry up and choose your move >_>" =p

Notice all the footprints around the room. The Pokemon must've been out of control at first.

O_O ur right but they r on the walls to so what the pokemon were running on the walls

imagine the mom say the mess right after both battles end

and isnt a bedroom a bad place to have a poke battle

and why do they rivals both battle u but not each other

and do ur pokemon get healed after the first battle


so many questions to be answered

Yeah but come it's clean again after the battle. Belle can't tidy an entire room that quickly during a battle.

[Leaftail]

I think they're showing the battles out of order - First Belle, who picks the starter weak to yours, then Cheren. During Belle's battle, the room gets destroyed. Don't know why they'd do it like that though...
