How do you select your starter Pokemon before a match? - Young ethnic woman pointing at camera

When playing as Pokemon trainer, I heard it's possible to pick your starting pokemon. So far I've only seen Squirtle as the starter. How do you change that?

Can you also prevent your pokemon from cycling on death? I essentially want to play only as Ivysaur if possible.

In addition to clicking the Pokemon with your virtual hand, you may also press the Y button to cycle through them.

As Steven mentions, there is unfortunately no way to prevent cycling on death. That being said, the longer you wait on the floating platform after you respawn, the shorter your invincibility period will be. So if you're trying to switch back to your previous Pokemon, I'd strongly suggest getting back into the game as soon as possible to make use of a longer invincibility period to switch.
