Story: Come to My Lab is the first Story Quest of the game. It is followed immediately by Story: Gotta Catch 'em All!. In this quest, the player is told to travel through Route 1 to Shardil Town.

When the player attempts to exit Granite Town, they are stopped by the rival (Mary or Jordan) and the two encounter Looker disguised as a tree in the middle of the road. After a conversation with Looker, they continue down Route 1 and enter Shardil Town.

Upon reaching the lab, the player and rival meet Rhodie and Professor Spruce. The Professor provides all three with their starter Pokémon: Eevee, Mienfoo, and Solosis. The rival will always choose the option weak against the player's, while Rhodie will choose the one strong against the player's.

After receiving the starters, the group is interrupted by the arrival of Petra. Petra offers some exposition in the form of a conversation with Spruce, then goes to use the PC. The Professor then gives the group their PokéBits, explains their functions, and Petra gives each character PokéBalls to start them off.
