Upon returning to Postwick, Leon finally reveals the gift that he's brought for you and Hop. This gift happens to be the Galar region's very own [[Starter Pokémon]]: {{p|Grookey}}, {{p|Scorbunny}}, and {{p|Sobble}}. After a brief cutscene showing off the small pokémon's personalities, Leon tells them to line up and then offers you and Hop a choice of one of the three starter pokémon.

* The {{type|Grass}} {{p|Grookey}} has the most weaknesses out of the three starters at 5, those being {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Poison}}, and {{t|Ice}}. However, it makes up for this by it and its evolutions having good {{stat|HP}}, {{stat|Attack}}, and {{stat|Defense}}. This allows its evolutions to take a couple of hits during a battle and dish out respectable damage before potentially getting knocked out.

* The {{type|Fire}} {{p|Scorbunny}} is the fastest out of the three Galar starters, boasting high {{stat|Speed}} and physical {{stat|Attack}}. This lets the Scorbunny line go first during most in-game battles all the while hitting like a truck with moves such as {{m|Bounce}} and {{m|Pyro Ball}}. However, its low defenses mean that while it can get in a few strong hits it is able to be knocked out easily, especially by {{t|Water}}, {{t|Ground}}, and {{t|Rock}}-type Pokémon.

* The {{type|Water}} starter, {{p|Sobble}} and its evolutions are able to exploit the weaknesses of opposing Pokémon with its high Speed and {{stat|Special Attack}} stats while having a decent Attack stat to boot. However, its poor defenses and HP stats hinder it to the point where it only takes one or two super-effective moves to knock it out, especially with its two weaknesses being {{t|Grass}} and {{t|Electric}} Pokémon.

Hop lets you pick which starter pokémon you want first since he already has his Wooloo with him. He then picks the starter that happens to be weak to your new partner Pokémon, while Leon ends up taking the starter that's stronger than yours. Then Hop and Leon's mum comes outside and says that dinner is ready, which results in Hop's family and your's having a barbeque in their backyard.

The next day you meet the brothers in their backyard and out of nowhere, Hop declares that you and he are now rivals and challenges you to your first rival battle. Hop will always send out his trusty Wooloo first, which you should be able to defeat with your {{t|Normal}}-type moves. Wooloo will always yield enough [[experience]] for your starter to learn its first STAB move, those being {{m|Branch Poke}}, {{m|Ember}}, or {{m|Water Gun}}. These new moves should be more than enough to knock out Hop's new starter, earning you the first of many victories in your journey.
