The player can craft items like Poké Balls, smoke bombs and more by collecting Apricorns, Berries, and the like. Aside from serving as places where the player and his/her Pokémon can rest, this is where players can report to Professor Laventon about their results. There are base camps positioned in the overworld that assist the player in many ways. At the start of the game, three starter Pokémon options are available: Rowlet (from Pokémon Sun and Moon), Cyndaquil (from Pokémon Gold and Silver), and Oshawott (from Pokémon Black and White), making it the first main series game to feature starter Pokémon from three different generations of games. Poké Balls in this era were made of wood and puffed steam when the Pokémon was caught. Players can capture Pokémon directly in the overworld immediately without going through a battle, and can engage in battle by releasing Pokémon they have previously captured near a wild Pokémon.
