      Red Meridian if you mean shiny locked, this is actually the first core game to do so. Let’s go Pikachu and Eevee shiny locked the starters, but they aren’t considered core additions to the series, and even so, they were the first game to do so. Every other game from gens 1-7 had the possibility of shiny starters (and yes I know that gen 1 didn’t have shiny Pokémon, but if you transfer them to another game they do still have a chance to be shiny)

    Tip for those picking Scorbunny: Unlike the other starters Scorbunny doesn't learn a stab move that uses its better attacking stat until 1 level after it would normally evolve, so if you want to get rid of Ember all the sooner hold off on evolving Scorbunny for one level.

Missed other games becuase I didn't own any Nintendo game console and I wasn't impressed by the gameplay (or lack of it) in Pokémon Go. With Switch this is my return to the franchise and so far I love it!
