I deeply apologize if there’s already a topic like this mods can just merge this with the pre existing topic if there is one. 
But what was your first Pokémon game? Mine I believe was I think Pokémon Blue.

Pokemon Yellow. With my first Handheld Gaming device, the Game Boy Color

My first pokemon game was Gold back in gen 2 and my first adventure across Johto and Kanto was with Cyndaquil at my side.

OG Pokemon Red baby! Charizard fo lyfe!

Mine was Pokemon Emerald. The first pokemon game I managed to beat all by myself WITHOUT help of a guidebook / WITHOUT looking up youtube was Pokemon Diamond.  I achieved the unthinkable by beating the game with only my starter. I wanted to prove to my friends that I could

The first generation I played was the third generation.  But my first game wasn't Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald.  The very first game and the one that got me into the franchise was Pokemon Leaf Green.

Pokemon Gold was my first! Chikorita and I sure did go through a lot together.

Pokemon Blue version.

[Here No Longer 5,276]

Pokemon Red version was my first Pokemon game and one of the first video games I ever played.

Pokémon yellow was my first Pokémon game. 

I loved having Pikachu follow me around. I would always check to see how he was doing.  

[Prince Doopliss 2,351]

Pokemon Blue was my first game, Pokemon Yellow was the first I had a copy to myself. But, Gen 3 really got me hook though.

pokemon blue was the first game i ever bought, i had gotten a gameboy color for my birthday and saved up all the money i got from doing chores around the house to buy pokemon blue. loved that game and i still do

Pokemon Red was my first Pokemon game. That was back in the late summer of 1999. I can not believe it's actually been 20 years.

I started in Kanto with Pokemon Red and the amount of Pokemon main series games i haven't played can be counted on one hand: Blue. Gold, Crystal, Sword and Shield. I'm getting a Switch Lite for Christmas so i scratch the latter two off soon.

[Sovereign Leader Rarity 12,007]

Pokemon Black and White 2 was my first Pokemon game,  and it still has a special place in my heart as one of my personal favourite games of all time. That said, I had been a fan of the show for years prior, beginning with the Diamond and Pearl series, which I watched religiously when I was a child.

Pokemon Ruby was my first pokemon game. I was so young back then I couldn't even understand what was really going on, I don't even know how I beat the game back then. I was so used to collecting the cards and playing with my classmates that I thought Pokemon Ruby would use TCG rules. It was until Pokemon Y that I actually invested time into the series and actually knew what I was doing.

[Odyssey 5,717]

The one with the yellow rat in it. But that belonged to my bro, and I thought that the only thing you can do on it is play with Pikachu lol. The first Pokemon game I owned is Ruby.

[The Recherche 29,968]

Oh dear, there are basically three beginnings for me, but to put it simply...

The first game I played was Blue, which I borrowed from my brother, the first one I owned personally was Platinum, but the first one I truly got invested in was Black.

I generally say that I began with Generation 4, all things considered.

[Lightwing 12,978]

Pokemon Gold was my first experience, and just like Crash 3 did before, it would forever shape the way I see videogames, just in a different way than the former 

[Kamii 595]

Pokemon Platinum was my first game. Honestly, it could've been Diamond or Pearl since I didn't play it for very long the first time. I didn't play the ones before then because I never had a Game Boy (neither did my older brother).

[Bastian 13,319]

The first one that I played was Pokemon Ruby.

I always selected mudkip as a starter

[PoisonClaw 8,165]

My first Pokemon game was the original Pokemon Red. I got a Gameboy Color for Christmas and then got Pokemon Red for Easter months later as a reward for good grades. 

[Jackleberry 1,923]

Technically speaking Fire Red was the first one I owned and played, but I grew up on Diamond/Pearl and they were the games that really pulled me into the series as a whole, and so I prefer to think of those ones as my first Pokemon games, at least in spirit.

[DixonTheAdversary 1,632]

The first game I had was Platinum, but the first one I was actually able to beat was Black.

Pokémon Red Version. I can't remember all the details, since it's so long ago. But I know how fascinated I was! It was the best thing ever~ Watching the show, playing the games for myself. Catching the Pokémon with those small ball. It was so amazing you can have them with you, I loved the small ball icons in battles. Going out in summer with the thick Game Boy machine. They even sold Pokémon lolipops and other sweets, they were so yummy~! I can't deny the influence thise franchise had on me, I still have an Ash and Pikachu painting hanging in the...toilet. Or a few random Generation 1 stickers on the door. Lapras. <3
