Comment Faire Pour Avoir Les 3 Starters Pokemon Soleil

Okay, so remember that time you spent, like, three hours restarting your Pokémon game because you regretted picking Bulbasaur? (Don't lie, we've all been there.) Well, in Pokémon Sun and Moon, the stakes are higher. We're talking three incredibly cute, incredibly powerful starters. The choice is agonizing! Rowlet, Litten, Popplio… how to choose?

But what if… what if you didn't have to choose? What if you could have ALL THREE?! I know, I know, sounds like a Poké-dream, right? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because I'm about to spill the (not-so-)secret sauce on how to get all three starters in Pokémon Sun and Moon. No cheating devices required, promise! (Unless you consider trading cheating, which… honestly, I don't.)

Trading: The Obvious (But Essential) Method

Alright, let's start with the painfully obvious. Trading. Duh. But before you roll your eyes and close this article, hear me out! This isn’t just about throwing something random on the GTS and hoping for the best (although, hey, give it a shot!). This is about strategy, my friend.

First, you're going to need a friend. Or, you know, an online acquaintance. Preferably one who also has Pokémon Sun or Moon and is willing to part with their starter.

The Plan: You pick your favorite starter. Play through the beginning of the game. Once you get to a point where you can trade, trade your starter with your friend. They restart their game and pick a different starter and trade that to you. Repeat until you have all three! Simple, right? (Relatively speaking, anyway. It does require a bit of coordination and patience.)

Pro-tip: Offer something good in return for their starter. No one wants a level 3 Pikipek in exchange for their precious Litten. Think version exclusives, Pokémon with good natures, or even just something you know they need for their Pokédex. (Gotta catch 'em all, after all!)

The Pokémon Bank/Home Method (For The Future Generations)

Okay, so this method is less applicable to solely playing Sun and Moon today (unless you have a time machine), but it's worth mentioning because it's a valuable tool for future Pokémon games!

Pokémon Bank (on the 3DS eShop, although you probably know it's effectively retired) and Pokémon Home (on Nintendo Switch and mobile) allow you to transfer Pokémon between generations. In theory, you could use a previously played Sun or Moon game and transfer the starters through these apps to get them on another game.

Why am I mentioning this? Because these apps are super useful for collecting Pokémon across different games! I mean, imagine being able to have a team of Pokémon from every generation! Mind blown!

The Breeding Game (A Bit More Involved)

Alright, this is where things get a little more… ahem… "hands-on." This method involves breeding your starter Pokémon to get more of them.

The Breakdown: First, you need to get your chosen starter, let's say Rowlet, to a high enough level where you can breed it. Then, you need to find a Ditto. Ditto is basically the Pokémon equivalent of a dating app… it can breed with almost anything!

Breed Rowlet with Ditto and BAM! You'll start hatching Rowlet eggs. Repeat this process until you have enough Rowlets to trade for the other starters.

Caveats: This method takes time. You'll need to hatch a lot of eggs. You'll also need to find a good place to hatch those eggs efficiently. (Circle around the Nursery is the classic strat!) And, of course, you still need someone to trade with! But hey, at least you're contributing to the Owl Pokémon population, right?

Side note: If you're aiming for competitive Pokémon, this breeding method is essential anyway for getting the right natures and IVs. Two birds, one Poké Ball!

The GTS Gamble (Use With Caution)

The Global Trade System (GTS) is a risky game. You can put up a Pokémon and request a specific Pokémon in return. Sounds perfect, right? Just put up a Pikipek and ask for a Rowlet!

The Reality: The GTS is full of… interesting… requests. You'll find people asking for level 1-10 legendaries for their common Pokémon. Good luck with that! You might get lucky and find someone willing to trade a starter, but it's a long shot.

My advice? Use the GTS as a last resort. Set realistic expectations. And, for the love of Arceus, don't put up your favorite Pokémon for something ridiculous. You'll just end up disappointed.

So there you have it! Several ways to acquire all three starters in Pokémon Sun and Moon. Some are easier than others, but they're all viable. Now go forth and catch (or trade) 'em all!

And hey, if all else fails, there's always YouTube. (But you didn’t hear that from me!). Happy Pokémon-ing!
