Mine was Koffing

it was a whos that pokemon thing and i was like what?
 
Mine was blastoise. It was on the box cover of pokemon blue, which I got for Christmas in '98. I had no idea what pokemon was. My parents only got it because it was extremely popular. I was 5 at the time.

....Pika?
Well..The First Pokemon I saw was Nidorino (Seen on Pokemon`s First Episode where the Nidorino fought Gengar)....Pikachu was the 25th pokemon I saw....Really (I didn`t watch The Whole Episode so basically I saw 2)and the 22 others were Plushies someone was selling.Then I saw Ash`s Pikachu...The 25th Pokemon I ever saw.
 
I saw them a few years before the US/Europe even heard of them in some random magazien that reported on japanese games~


first one I saw was Nidoran M, but it had bulbasaur on the same page~

I think it was golduck my friend showed me a card
 
A Poliwag. One of my cousins had a plushie of a Poliwag, and I asked what show it was from. She said it was a new show called "Pokemon"...

And the rest, you already know.

(Pikachu was the 5th pokemon I saw. After Poliwag, Nidoran M, Charizard and Blastoise, the last 2 because of the covers of Red and Blue. Nidoran M...blame a card. If you haven't guessed yet, I saw Pikachu in the cover of Yellow.) That's all I could remember...
