Answered About Galarian starters (?)

[unknown_citizen]

Ok, last week Galarian starters and Meltan were introduced into the game (in their respective elemental map).

Grookey, Scorbunny and Sobble with a rare spawn encounter rate evidently... BUT, when you go to the 'Sign up' page for creating a new account... and you're able to choose ur first starter ever, still they don't appear in the options. So..... when Galarian starters will appear in these options??

Also, in these options (for choose the first starter) there r a 4th starters column (pidgey, pichu, poochyena, etc.)

Which Gen 8 pokemon will be the 4th starter or 'pseudo-starter' in that column??

Thanks in advance.

It is most likely that the Galarian starters were added as a preview for the big update involving all Pokémon from the 8th generation.
I assume that once that big update happens, that that'll be when Scorbunny, Grookey and Sobble will be added as Pokémon you can choose as your starter.

For generation 7 I believe we were allowed to vote on what the 4th starter would be. Perhaps we'll get another chance like it. We'll have to wait and see.

Rookidee should be the fourth pokemon because it is the first pokemon other than the starters that is good. Yamper might be the fourth but it is garbage.
