Raviel the Phantom Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 What was your first Pokemon? Way back in the day when I got my first game, Blue Version, for my birthday. I started it up with absolutely no knowledge about Pokemon (This was way before the internet) so I had no idea about what the starters turned into. Between the three, I chose Squirtle, because I had a pet turtle. I nicknamed him Killer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostKiller Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 My first was good ol Pikachu from Pokemon Yellow. The fun I had killing those little kids and campers pokemon and stealing their money. I don't regret nothing till this day. :[keepitclean]: :feelsgd: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas Elliot Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Just like the topic starter, I too got Pokemon Blue for my birthday (it had just come out in Italy, I was the first one in my hometown to get it actually...), and I too had no idea of what the starters would turn into. I picked Bulbasaur because the manual stated it was the easiest to raise! Now I know that was because it had type advantage over the first two gyms, but back then I had no idea...

NickCrash Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Oh the memories... especially now that the internal batteries should be dead. I'm afraid to look. Red Version, Bulbasaur. Oh, yes. I am the person who chose Bulbasaur. I am also the person who demolished the "ever powerful" Charizard with a Golem I raised. Never had a clue what the game was about, or what the starters were going to be. True, Bulba had an easy time against the first 3 gyms, but by the time you reach them you can beat them anyway. Afterwards I saw nobody liked Bulbasaur, so it felt great to win with the underdog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShatteredSkys Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Technically Treecko but a little after I started I ran into the grunt with the lvl 11 poocheyana and got slaughtered ( I never healed any of my pokemons......) After that I chose mudkip called it Kipt (Don't ask) and went on with my adventure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheJawsOfDeath Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 My first pokemon was in the middle of my cousins Emerald Playthrough and it was a Pikachu in the safari and I finished the game for him. First Pokemon Ever on my own save file was Blaziken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The first pokemon i ever played wasn't actually a pokemon game, but a minecraft pokemon mod. At the time i knew nothing about pokemon at all and i picked Chimchar(which to my surprise was a girl, so i'm glad i picked an 'unisex' name for her) just because, then i caught a Poochyena just because too. Eventually i grew attached to them so i hacked every pokemon game i could so i could play with my team from the mod. Infernape is now my faithful wallbreaker and reserve lead. Mightyena is now my handy sweep-stopper and the guy that takes hits for the team and saves the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Bagel Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 My first pokemon was I think but don't quote me charmander in fire red. That was my first pokemon game but can't remember if I chose zartard or the turtle first time around because I played it so much. Surprisingly now my favorite of the three are neither of those two because I prefer bulbasaur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chevaleresse Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Treecko. I've had an affinity for Grass-type starters since, though lately I've been leaning Water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nifar Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 I started with Squirtle on Blue version, playing on an original Gameboy. I still have the cartridge with my pre-Elite 4 save somewhere. One day I'll find it and finish the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CURIE Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 My story is actually strikingly similar to ShatteredSky's: My first pokemon was technically Treeko, but it didn't last long. It was my first Pokemon game and one of my first ever video games in general, so I had minimal idea what I was doing and that first run was full of fail. First of all, I didn't even MEAN to pick Treeko. It was the first Pokeball that my cursor happened upon, so I was like "let's press A to see what it is", and it showed me Treeko. I was like "that's cool, but let me look at the other two first" and TRIED to press no. But I accidentally pressed yes, and was stuck with Treeko. The idea of soft resetting was foreign to me at the time, by the way. Shortly after picking him, a similar incident with the nicknaming screen led to me accidentally nicknaming him, simply "A". Later in the game when I discovered the guy who changes your nicknames, I WANTED to change his name back to Treeko, but by that time he had evolved, and I didn't know what his new form's name was supposed to be. I could have looked it up in my Pokedex, but I didn't want to scroll through the entire thing just to find it. If only I knew Grovyle would've been the very second thing to come up. Now, this was all before the great Feebas hunt had taught me how to be patient. Therefore, I did what a lot of us probably did in our first pokemon game: used only the starter ever, and skipped trainer battles whenever possible. I didn't realize the importance of fighting with your pokemon to level it up, and as a result I could never ever get past that battle with May on Route 110, because of her Combustken. I then restarted the game and chose Mudkip as my starter, in order to beat that Combustken. You could imagine my anger when I find out May automatically chooses the starter that beats yours. But the dumbness doesn't stop there: with Swampert (yes, I eventually got past that Route 110 battle) my ONLY strategy was spam Surf on everything. Needless to say, I had a nightmarish time against Wallace and it caused me to initially form a burning hatred for Milotic, who would later become my favorite Pokemon of all. The only other Pokemon I used to fight in that run was Groudon, who I somehow thought was named "Ruby" despite seeing his name so often. Since I only had two Pokemon, my victory over the elite 4 was due to me struggling Steven to death while spamming potions and revives. I didn't figure out what the ethers and elixers to because I was to impatient to read them. Again, this was before the hunt for Feebas taught me patience, and before then I was a VERY impatient individual. In a sense, Milotic changed my life for the better, which is one of the reasons she's now my favorite 'mon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flux Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Good old-fashioned Cyndaquil from Pokemon Silver, nicknamed Blaze. It has become my all-time favorite Pokemon to the point where I always raise a Cyndaquil with an Everstone, because I feel like it gets progressively less cool as it evolves. Granted, all three forms are still pretty good. It's a principle of mine to always own a level 100 Cyndaquil whenever I can in the games now.

zimvader42 Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Fennekin, in pokémon reborn. This was my first pokemon game ever that my friend introduced me to and told me that I didn't need a DS or nintento stuff to play it, only my computer. I was hyped because the game looked really cool, I had never played pokemon in my life and I really wanted to try. When Ame in the grand City hall asked me to choose a starter, I went through all the tables, looking at all the pokemon I already new of (gens I to V) but what got my attention was a fire fox that I had never seen until then. I didn't even knew of gen VI by that time (that was, around this same month last year, actually). Best decision ever (specially since 1st gym was grass lol gg) I have discovered so many wonderful things about pokemon since then, and Fennekin will always be my first starter. That turns into a beautiful psychic fox wizard by the way. Looking back at ALL of reborn until now, that fennekin (a Delphox nowadays), the rest of my team and I have lived quite plenty of adventures until now, and we have seen many people die. And we defeated a lot of gyms. And once, we caught a beldum. Ah the memories.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverJakler Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Pretty sure my first was Mudkip in Ruby, but I was a stupid kid and reset the game and chose Treecko. I ended up beating the game with a Sceptile named "WINDLIZARD" because I didn't know he was a Grass Type until after I named him (I didn't know how Starters worked back then either, I was like 7 or something and only watched the anime). Now I got him in my Y Version so I can trade him to Omega Ruby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
