Well, you'll see almost every pokemon if you're diligent enough.  But for the unobtainables like old legendaries and starters, you can't be given then randomly, no.  You'll have to have them come over from old games, or have them be traded to you by someone specific.  If it's a friend you exchange codes with, you can trade anything, seen or unseen.  Doesn't have to be locally.

Actually, looking at the list, it's one of those you can't get until you have the National Dex, which would require beating the main story first.  So no, no playing through with Farfetch'd.  Though, I have to ask, why would you want to?  I always make it a point to choose new stuff, myself.

Actually, after you get the National Dex, the game is set up so you can catch roughly 380 Pokemon WITHOUT TRADING AT ALL.  You'll find everything except your version exclusives, the previous three generations of Starter Pokemon, and previous legendaries/event pokemon/super rare stuff like that.  

But, yes, even in the beginning not all the Pokemon are new.  I'm using a Ponyta in my party, and I have a Kadabra, among others.  It'll get even more mixed up in the aftergame.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Help bring Tingle Stateside!

I definately voted, and even foolishly took the time to point out to Nintendo the surprising success of some of the "quirky Japanese games" that have made it stateside recently.  I doubt they'll listen, but I really want to play the game without having to import it!
