Yep! You started with a Scatterbug, who's already evolved into a Vivillon. It's a little like a Butterfree, but they all have different patterns on their wings. And you had a full team of six last I checked.

The newest one, yeah. I knew about all the regions until Unova, but Kalos was new to me. [Hey, he'd love to meet other people who know Pokemon or were from the Pokemon world.]
