When you begin playing Pokemon emerald, you are moving into your new house in littleroot town. You do the begining things like setting the clock,ect.ect. Later your mom asks you to go vist your dads friend,your neibor, this is when you meet your rivel,your neibor, the proffessers son(or daughter if your a boy). Soon after you are asked to go a little way out of town(like not even 10 steps) and you find the proffesser being chased by a wild Pokemon. this is where you FINALLY get to pick tour starter. He askes you to open the case by where your standing inside there are 3 pokeballs. in 1 is Torchic, a fire type Pokemon, in another is Mudkip, a water type Pokemon, and in the last is Treeko a grass type Pokemon. You use the one to defeat the wild Pokemon chasing professor birtch and after you go back to his lab he gives you the one you used.
