When you access the game for the first time, you receive one random Pokémon, you also get 10 PokéBalls to allow you to catch Pokémon Simply enough, you find a Wild Pokémon and you catch it, however originally there are only 3 Pokémon you can catch, all random However with the subscription to the service each month, more Pokémon become available and you get 5 more Pokéballs to capture the Pokémon with. You can also buy new Pokéballs for a small price seperately.

All your Pokémon are stored within Boxes in the system just like the Pokémon in the general GBA games. You can select the Pokémon here to use them as your mascot Pokémon This also allows you to see a Pokédex entry for the Pokémon which also includes information on when you caught it.
