Poll: What was your first Pokemon?

[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 .

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...

 

[thevillageidiot13]

Squirtle, Red.

 

[dajuberjaber]

Charmander on Pokemon red

 

[Comic Sans]

Blue, Bulbasaur.

 

[Azure-Supernova]

Charmander was my first ever Pokémon and I got him on Blue.

 

[Dr. Win]

Pokemon: Squirtle
Game: Blue

...Blastoise FTW...

 

[xFullmetalx]

I think it was Charmander and my first Pokemon game was Red.

 

[LandoCristo]

Bulbasaur. I always start with grass pokemon, since the first two gyms are typically Rock and Water, so I can wreck through those two quickly while I build up a balanced team.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I started on Pokemon Blue for the Gameboy. Yeah.

 

[Gottesstrafe]

Blastoise from Blue, of course! I mean, I just took a look at each starter's evolved forms and made the obvious choice. What would YOU have chosen: The green komodo dragon with a flower on its back, the generic looking red dragon, or the giant blue Turtle with canons sticking out of its shell?

 

[SenorToucan]

Totodile from Pokemon Silver.

 

[Kiju]

Charmander.

Not a fan of turtles or frogs. But newts? Hell yeah.
