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.

Rowlet, Cyndaquil and Oshawott

Location: Galaxy Building

Like all Pokémon games, at the start of your journey you will receive a gift from the Professor of a Starter Pokémon. Having brought them from other regions, it is your first step to getting other Pokémon. You will start off by catching them in Prelude Beach after they escape but Laventon will then offer you one when you join the Galaxy Team's Survey Corps

After you have finished the game, he will offer you both Pokémon you didn't pick.
