Walkthrough:Yo-kai Watch/Prologue
At the very beginning of the game, the player has the option to choose between either a male or a female character. The male and female character are both protagonists of the games and also from the animation series of the same title. After the player has made their choice of what character they would like to play as, they name them to their liking. Afterwards, a disclaimer and information about the Nintendo 3DS system clock occurs. After passing these disclaimers, the player will begin the story of the game.
