I just got new iPhone 12 Pro. The phone wants me to log in to an Apple id iCloud account. I use a gmail email for my apple id. What can I do?

My new iPhone 12 wants be to log in to an Apple ID account that has an iCloud.com email as the Apple ID. I do not have an iCloud.com email. I use a gmail.com email for my Apple ID. How do I change this Apple ID. I have no way to access the supposed iCloud.com email.

You can use any valid email address you want. I have never used, or even had a .me or .cloud account.
