Of course I did! Yellow was my first ever Pokemon game, and I thoroughly enjoyed those gifted Pokemon. I trained them all up to level 100 and loved every minute of it.
Granted, back then I was a pretty sketchy trainer. I think my Venusaur knew Razor Leaf, Solar Beam, Cut, and Sleep Powder. My Charizard had Fire Blast, Fire Spin, Flmethrower, and Fly. But anyway, I love the Kanto starters, and Ash's team in the anime enforced my affection towards having the same team on my first Pokemon game.
And kekeke... my cousin could never get Bulbasaur on his first visit to Cerulean, no matter how often he played. I always got it the second I walked into town. That made me feel really good.
