It has to be bred/safari'd :3
I posted some facts on the starters somewhere else last night, but here I'll post my opinions. :3
I will start with Chespin, since it's the only one I haven't used. It's more defensive, which just usually isn't my style of play. In addition to that, Quilladin and Chesnaught are just extremely awkward to me. Chesnaught kind of looks like its armor is way too small for it or something. It's ridiculous. For these reasons I did not bother using it.
I used Fennekin in my very first playthrough, because I loved it ever since I first saw it. Delphox was a bit of a disappointment in terms of design, but I still do think it's pretty cool, with that fire wand thing :3 It was alright to use, I love fire types and fire/psychic typing was definitely fun. Even so, it fainted quite often due to its many weaknesses. Still loved using it and I don't really have any qualms with it, except that its movepool isn't all that great. (didn't expect it to be or anything, just makes it pretty predictable to use)
Now Froakie, is obviously better with its hidden ability. But, even without it, it's the most fun for me to use. Greninja strikes very fast and hard, and even with its not-too-great defenses, it still gets the job done with its extreme versatility. It does great with both physical and special moves, and learns a
whole lot of coverage moves excluding water and dark moves, including Ice Beam, Extrasensory, U-Turn, Acrobatics, Grass Knot, Rock Slide, Dig, there's just so many options. And that's why I love it so much, it's just a lot of fun! I love its design too, it's so cute, especially in Pokemon amie.
As for what to use on your team. Don't stress about it. Use what you like. Everything is awesome and more than capable of working on your team :3 For me, I really wanted to use Talonflame, but I also wanted to use Charizard, so I used Charizard in my first playthrough and Talonflame in my second, so I could experience lots of other types too. They were both so great hehe >.<
