Gift Pokémon

Like past Pokémon games, there are numerous Pokémon that you don't get by capturing, but rather by a person kindly giving you the Pokémon. This is often the easiest way to get most of these Pokémon and in some cases, the only way.

Sprigatito, Fuecoco & Quaxly

Location: Cabo Poco

At the start of the game, you will meet Director Clavell who introduces you to the three starter Pokémon; Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly. He will get them to follow you for a while. When you go visit your neighbour, Nemona, she will ask if they're yours. Clavell will then give you the choice between the three Starter Pokémon, and Nemona will take the one weak to yours.
