for the demo, will the player be given a dex at the same time that they're allowed to chose a starter, or will we have the player travel to the second town and then back as is tradition?
if we go the traditional rout, maybe the player goes to chase after the 'unnamed poke-bandit'. When the player gets to the second town a pokemon ranger intercepts you saying there have been reports of a robber in the area and you fit the description (stranger wearing a hat and poncho) the two of you return to Mangrove's lab to sort things out.
