As you know, I preordered online and will thus get these two babies in the mail real soon.
I WILL MOST LIKELY START WITH CYNDAQUIL mainly because I think I started with Chikorita/Totodile the last times I played. That and Cyndaquil is just that badass. I seriously can't wait to get these, and in the meantime I'm working on somewhat "finishing" Pearl; this is impossible since I can't get Regice, Registeel, or Regirock (if I got the names wrong, sorry). Basically, can't get Regigigas.
