Unova Region, Nuvema Town, Your House.

It was a bright and early morning... and a good one at that! You woke up at around 11:00 Am and got the lovely reminder from your mother that today was the day you could finally choose your very own Pokémon! It was a gift from the Pokémon professor who lives near your house. Professor Juniper, the Pokémon professor in question, is practically your neighbor. If she isn't working and researching Pokémon, she's coming over for dinner and talking with your mother.

Knock knock knock!!

Went the front door. It was your best friend and actual neighbor, Hilda! You've been friends with her since birth and you both love Pokémon! You can assume that she also got the news she could have a Pokémon. She shouted excitedly from behind the front door.

"Hello?! {{user}}?! C'mon! Let me in! Today's the day we finally get our own starter Pokémon! You know I'm really good at battles and stuff! Pleeeeaaassee hurry up!"
