Your First Pokemon Game

I started the games with Silver after having been exposed to the TCG and anime for about 3 years (I didn't really have an interest in video games until then).

Pokemon Red was my first game. I watch the first 5-7 episodes of the anime a few weeks before the games came out. After I watched the anime, I was hooked lol.

Sapphire was my very first game. I had played Silver before that but it wasn't mine it was my brothers. It felt awesome having my very own game and Gameboy!
My first Pokemon game and video game in general was blue version for the gameboy when i was 5 or 6. Sure I only ever bothered to catch like 10 Pokemon and would beat the game through to the elite 4 in like 2 hours but still I would start a new save and play the game again every week as it was a truly addictive and wonderful title.

What do I do now?
Can't remember if it was Blue, Red, or Yellow, but it was one of them that we first started off with. Good times, nostalgic music, hasn't aged as well as some games due to the flaws in the battling, but it still brings some good memories : )

My first game was Pokemon Ruby. I was too young to remember but, I am pretty sure I did watch the anime and collect the cards.

Yellow. Pikachu was my first Pokemon ever. I was such a n00b back then. It was the only Pokemon I used, and I taught it Thunder, Thunderbolt, Thundershock, and some other damaging move I don't remember. (Because anything that didn't hurt the opponent was useless. ) The rest of the team was severely underleveled.
) The rest of the team was severely underleveled.1) First Pokemon game was Red around the time it came out (probably), started with Charmander and Charizard ultimately ended up becoming my favorite Pokemon.
2) I honestly have zero recollection of which came first, as I've been trying to figure this out as well, though I would assume the games came first (I was like 4 when Red/Blue came out).
