What Is New?Īt first glance, some may not think that Pokémon Ruby changed things up all that much, but it actually did add in some really cool features. Out of these three I like Torchic best, but I will be honest and say that these are my least favorite Pokémon starters of any game. The three on offer here are Treecko, Torchic, and Mudkip. You start off as you always do by selecting your starter Pokémon. There is, of course, more to it than that, but at the end of the day you still want to enter the Pokémon League, you still want gym badges and you still want to capture as many Pokémon as you can.
