It's time to return to Kalos, with the thrilling new entry in the monster-taming franchise, called Pokémon Legends Z-A. However, unlike Pokémon X and Y, your starters this time are Chikorita, Tepig, and Totodile, continuing the inter-generational trend started in Pokémon Legends Arceus.
If you're one of the many folks hoping to find the original X&Y starter trio, namely Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie, you are thankfully in luck. There are a couple of different ways to find the Kalosian starters in ZA, so we're detailing them all right here.
Where to find Froakie
To find Froakie in Pokémon Legends Z-A, head to Jaune Sector 8 and speak to the NPC named Surv, and begin Side Mission 009, 'A Challenge from Froakie.' Complete the three obstacle courses within the time limit, and you will be gifted a Froakie.
Where to find Fennekin
To find Fenekkin in Pokémon Legends Z-A, you must first talk to Branche in Magenta Sector 2 to begin Side Mission 008, titled 'Get Well, Fennekin.' Follow the objective marker, and after speaking to the old man, head to Wild Zone 5. Follow the objective markers within Wild Zone 5 to eventually find the Revitalizing Twig, and upon returning to Branche with the item, she will gift you the now healthy Fennekin.
Where to find Chespin
To find Chespin in Pokémon Legends Z-A, first speak to the character Axi, found outside Restaurant Le Wow, and start Side Mission 007, 'A Feisty Chespin.' Simply battle and defeat Chespin three times, and then it will join your party.
How to get the Kalos starters in the wild in Pokémon Legends Z-A
The Kalos starters (Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie) become available in the wild after completing the main story of Pokémon Legends Z-A. At the time of writing, there exact location is not known, but we will update this guide in the future as soon as that information becomes available.
Can Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie be Shiny in Pokémon Legends Z-A?
The version of the Kalos starters you encounter through Side Missions are not available in their Shiny forms. But any you encounter in the wild after completing the main Legends ZA story do have the regular chance of being Shiny.
