Once you get control of your character, head north then take a right to exit the train station and enter Lumiose City.
3
A Pancham will swipe your bag once the short cutscene ends with Urbain or Taunie. Follow the three starter Pokemon into an alley until you reach two trainers who will challenge you to a fight.

Take the first left at the green flag building, then to the right then straight to the alley under the arch, then follow Pancham to the left.
4
You'll need to pick from the three available starter Pokemon, Chikorita, Totodile, and Tepig, to fight Pancham with.

We recommend getting Tepig due to its great dual-typing when it's fully evolved, but you can choose whichever starter you like!
Best Starter to Choose

Choose Tepig for the Best Type Coverage

Pokemon Explanation
Tepig ImageTepig Ranking: ★★★★★
・Has a strong dual Fire and Fighting-type when fully evolved.
・Can learn many different TMs due to its wide movepool.
・Great dual offensive stats and respectable bulk offset by low Speed.
Totodile ImageTotodile Ranking: ★★★★☆
・Its Mega Evolution has the highest attack out of the three starters.
Water is a great defensive typing which pairs well with its natural defensive bulk.
・Can learn a wide array of powerful attacks, but has a less diverse movepool compared to Tepig.
Chikorita ImageChikorita Ranking: ★★★☆☆
・Is a more defensive-oriented Pokemon both when fully-evolved and when using Mega Evolution.
・Grass has multiple weaknesses, but boasts key resistances towards Water, Grass, Electric, and Ground-type Moves.
・Has a more limited movepool mostly full of defensive and utility moves.

Defeat Andi the Backpacker and Pancham using your chosen starter Pokemon. Hold down the ZL Button to focus on Pancham then press the appropriate buttons to command your starter to perform moves.

Attacks have a cooldown, so pay attention to the button map on the lower right of the screen so you can tell if your Pokemon's moves area ready.

Note: You can move around the battlefield to reposition your Pokemon so that it can avoid the opposing Pokemon's attacks. Reduce Pancham's HP to 0 to win the fight!
5
Defeat Pancham and you'll retrieve your bag, which completes the mission!
