How to Start a New Pokémon Omega Ruby Game: Choosing Your Starter Pokémon

=================================================================

When starting a new game in Pokémon Omega Ruby, one of the first decisions you'll need to make is choosing your starter Pokémon. This choice will not only determine which iconic grass-, fire- or water-type partner will accompany you throughout your adventure but also have long-term implications for how you build and play through your team.

The three starter Pokémon available at the beginning of each generation are Treecko (a grass type), Torchic (a fire type) and Mudkip (a water type). Each has its own unique strengths, weaknesses, movesets, and evolutionary paths that can significantly impact both single- and multiplayer experiences in Omega Ruby. Here's a brief overview of what you're getting into with each:

### Grass-type Treecko

Treeekos primary strength lies within his incredible speed and special defense stats, making him an excellent choice for trainers who prefer swift battles fullway over brute force. However, this also means he may struggle against types like Bug or Flying Pokémon that can easily KO him due to their powerful moves.

### Fire-type Torchic

On the other hand, if you're looking for a fire starter with great Attack power and special move sets then look no further than Torchic! Its high Attack stat combined with access to powerful moves such as Ember and Flamethrower make it perfect for dealing massive damage from close range. However be warned; since Fire-type Pokémon are weak against Water-type attacks they can get burned pretty quickly if facing off against water-types.

### Water-type Mudkip

Finally, we have Mudkips incredible Defense stat which makes him almost invincible in physical battles thanks to his ability 'Shell Armor.' He also has access to powerful moves like Earthquake and Hydro Pump that deal massive damage. However, due to being a Ground type himself (making him vulnerable against Electric-type attacks), you'll want to keep an eye on your team composition when facing opponents who rely heavily on electric-type Pokémon.

Ultimately, the choice between Treecko, Torchic or Mudkip comes down entirely up to personal preference and playstyle preferences. Whichever starter you choose will shape how you build the rest of your team in interesting ways throughout your journey through Hoenn!

Once you've made your selection, simply follow these simple steps:

1. Talk to Professor Birch at Route 251st Gym.

2. Choose one of Treecko (Grass), Torchic (Fire) or Mudkip (Water).

3. Congratulations! Your adventure has begun with 'starter name' by your side!

Remember that once you've chosen a starter Pokémon, there is no going back - so think carefully about which partner will be accompanying you throughout your journey through the Hoenn region in Pokémon Omega Ruby.

Good luck trainers, and happy adventuring!
