Vaniville Town

The opening sequence. There are no battles or items to collect here that matter long-term, but pay attention to two small things:

Mom (your house, 1F): Talk to her before you leave for full HP heal on any Pokémon (useful later — your house is a free heal between Routes 1 and 22 for the early game).
Shauna (front gate): Triggers the Phase 1 cutscene. She hands you a letter from Professor Sycamore and asks you to meet her in Aquacorde Town.
Side tip — character creation: Your skin tone, hair, and eye color choices on the title screen are permanent until you reach Lumiose City salons (Phase 5). Pick something you can live with for ~10 hours.
