When it’s done, add a choice with the name of the Pokemon that you wish to give. E.g. :

Then you’ll have to give a Pokemon according to the player choice.

Repeat this script for each Pokemon, but don’t forget to modify the Starter value (1 for the first Pokémon, 2 for the second one, etc...). It’s useful for you if you wish to fight a different Pokemon depending on the starter (against the Rival character for example).

Getting a Pokemon with a ball (1G / 2G)

This method is the easiest one, you have to create an event (Ball) and to configure it like this :

The event is exactly the same as the one in the previous method, with the difference that there isn’t any choice in this event. This choice will be done manually by the Player who will click on each Ball. Once more, don’t forget to modify Starter value depending on the chosen Pokémon.
