Poll: What was your first Pokemon?

[RoyalSorceress]

Bulbasaur, I literally got through almost the entire game using him and his evolutions almost exclusively.

But now I mostly choose the fire starters. Except for White. When I get White, I can't imagine choosing anything but the grass starter.

 

[KefkaCultist]

Pokemon: Squirtle
Game: Blue

I don't remember if I gave it a different name or just left it as Squirtle. Anyways, Blastoise is awesome. I mean, c'mon its a tortoise that stands on two legs with two giant water cannons protruding from it's shell. The other options is a dragon, some plant thing, or a lightning rat. While the lightning rat sounds cool, it still doesn't have freakin' cannons on its back.

Charmander in the Red Version.

Didnt get to enjoy him so much since the water gym forced me to power level him into Charmeleon...though it got me to Charizard that much quicker.

 

[holy_secret]

My first Pokemon was Bulbasaur (Or fröskalle, as I named him), which I got after I "borrowed" Pokemon blue from my friend indefinitely. Hihi I still have it after 13 years *evil smile*

 

[justnotcricket]

Bulbasaur
yeeeaAAAAAHHyyyeaaah....

Ditto. =)

Back in '95 (was it '95? Holy crap...) with Pokemon Red. =)

Hm, it looks like I should clarify that, since there is a Pokemon called Ditto, but I meant it in regards to the Bulbasaur thing. =)

EDIT: Now that I investigate, it was probably more like '97. Still, that's quite some time ago!

Okay here's how this works.

List your first starter and what game.That is it but any further input would be appreciated.

For me

Starterikachu
Game:Yellow

This is exactly what I did. The first one I caught was a Nidoran. Although Brock was a bit more challenging, which is nice.

 

[Crankafoo]

Mine was Squirtle. :I

 

[Plucky]

Starter: Charmander
Version: Red

 

[Shepard's Shadow]

Starter - Bulbasaur
Game - Blue

Because tentacles are hot.

 

[Divine Miss Bee]

first game was red, and i still have a deep love of my first pokemon. can you guess?

 

[TilMorrow]

Squirtle Yeah he kicked ass when he evolved!!!!

Blue version of course.

 

[brunothepig]

Red or Blue, I forget. I had both of them at some point, not sure which one I got first. Anyway, Charmander. I know he's not as effective as Bulbasaur, but I didn't then, plus he's an adorable lizard that evolves into what is essentially a dragon.

 

[TheMariner]

Ah, this takes me back. My very first videogame: Pokemon Red

Starter: Squirtle

Charmander looked cool and all, but I could not argue with a huge turtle that had cannons coming out of it's shell.

 

[Jay Kidd]

Charmander on the Blue I borrowed from a friend and then Feraligatr on MY first game, Silver

 

[Summerstorm]

Squirtle...

 

[Rogue 9]

Bulbasaur, in Pokemon Red.

 

[Vohn_exel]

I started out on Red with Charmander. I always pick the fire starters, and I will continue this trend to Black/White.

Now, I don't remember what the first pokemon I caught then was, but when I picked the series back up with Pearl, I caught a Shinx, I think. Those are my favorite pokemon now, so if I could pick I'd use them as a starter .

 

[Bobbity]

Pickachu! Pokemon Gold on the gameboy colour; it was fantastic!
I actually found the gameboy in the attic a couple of months ago, and played the game from start to finish on an eight hour car trip. That brought back a lot of memories...

 

[Tim_Buoy]

Charmander in the original red version and come on you cant deny this is the cutest of the three

 

[Kasper Gundersen]

My one and only Squirtle of course
In Blue btw...
