Does Professor Sycamore really give you the Kanto starters?

Question

I was looking at the news on Pokemon TCGO and I was looking at the Pokemon X & Y space. It said that Professor Sycamore doesn't give you the new starter Pokemon but the very first starters: Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle. Does that mean you don't get the new starters?

Answer 1

You do get the new starters, but they are given to you by your friend in-game. You meet Sycamore a bit later, after the first gym, where he gives you a Kanto starter.

it has been revealed. Your friends give you the kalos starters at the start of your adventure. the Professor will give it to you when you meet him a little bit later in the game.

I've updated the answer with the real details.

awesome! I`ll get two starters in one game And I won't even have to trade!

And if you get Torchic, that's THREE starters! (Notice how we get a 1st gen starter, a 3rd gen and then a 6th gen starter. 1 + 2 = 3, 3 + 3 =6, 6 + 4 would be 10...HOENN REMAKES GEN 10!!! Actually that's pretty lame.)

I lost you after you said notice, but before that your right!
