The Sinnoh region. A glorious region inhabited by Pokemon and humans that train and capture them for battle. Both are great friends forever. They journey together and they fight together. Your first Pokemon is always one to remember, this is called your starter Pokemon. Professor Oak is a well known Pokemon researcher and a friend of all the professors. He worked on the digital encyclopedia known as the Pokedex. Trainers can get their starter from him.
A friend a Professor Oak is Professor Rowan. Professor Rowan studies Pokemon evolution. You can get a Turtwig, a grass type from him, A fire type Chimchar, or a water type Piplup. Let’s get Piplup. Piplup will be fine for the first fragments of your journey. The first gym is a rock type gym.The leader is Roark. He will throw a lot at you, be careful to winning this match. But it should be easy if you have a Piplup, mainly if Piplup has a water type attack.
Rock type Pokemon are weak against water type attacks. So it should be easy to get your first badge. Piplup is probably the most famous out of the three Sinnoh starters. This is because in the television series Dawn, the main female character in the Sinnoh region parts, chose Piplup as her starter. Piplup travels with Dawn, Ash, and Brock on their journey. Piplup tends to have attitude problems most of the time. Usually thinking he is the better one, or doesn’t like to admit he can’t do something. But Piplup is much like Pikachu is to Ash. Not going into a Pokeball most of the time and always traveling with their trainer walking side by side. Dawn’s Piplup never wanted to evolve. It was unique and different for this reason. Anyway let’s get back to Sinnoh in general. Piplup will evolve into a Prinplip which gets more power then Piplup and will help out your journey for quite some time, that is until it evolves. It will evolve into Empoleon. Empoleon has an emperor penguin type of look an is a water and steel type Pokemon. And odd combination, I think the first of its kind. Empoleon will put up a fight and will always be special for the fact that he is your starter Pokemon.
You will most likely want to challenge the Pokemon League in the Sinnoh region with him by your side. Empoleon can learn the very powerful water type attack Hydro Cannon, which is taught by a Move Tutor in the Survival Area after you beat the league, and if you can find his house. Will you choose Piplup for your journey in the Sinnoh region?
