1st generation for sure. Still, second generation with being able to go to Johto and Kanto made it the best game ever.

First Gen. I was a huge fan of the anime at the time around 1998 or 1999. My dad got me Yellow (probably cuz he recognised Pikachu on the box). I love it so much that I brought Silver then Red with the money I saved up for years. Aww I miss being a kid.

My first game that I bought was Yellow but the first game that I played was my friends Red version when I went over to their house one time in like the summer of 1999. I've been playing the games ever since.

And the cat goes moo
I went:-

-Gen I
-Gen II
-Gen I
-Gen IV
-Gen III
-Gen IV
-Gen V

Weird I know.
 
Technically 4th Gen (feel like such a noob) but I was interested in the show in my years of growning up. I bought sapphire a week after I bought diamond, and was orginally going to buy it first (after I found out that GBA games worked on DS) but then Diamond came out so I bought that instead. So really 3rd gen....or 4th Gen. Whichever way you see it.

EDIT: Just saw when 1st Gen came out. Dude, have you ever seen a baby in a womb play pokemon?

One question. Did someone made another "What gen. did you start playing" thread?
Because I remember posting in one. And I don't have any posts here.

I started with Generation 1. I 'borrowed' Pokemon Yellow from my older brother when I was six.
But if it only includes games that were actually mine, I started with Generation 4.

First generation, way back in the time when I was a kid. After that I have played games from all other generations in the order they were released.
