The microbacteria, as apparently life has existed on Earth for 3.7 billion years in this form. :-D

I mean, the chicken would have to have hatched from the egg in order to become a chicken, after evolving/mutating from whatever came before it... Therefore, the egg.

Science tells us that the egg comes first. Simple. :mlp_nom:

The chicken came first after evolving at level 16. When it reaches level 36 it evolves into a cockatrice.

Throwing pokeballs at chickens doesn't work.

I honestly don't even understand how this is a question anymore. While the species before would be like 99.99999999 ...% identical to a chicken (understand I'm not wanting to oversimplify things here), the science of evolution shows us that the first instance of what would have been 100% a chicken would have been the result of two organisms that weren't technically chickens, and thus the first chicken began as an egg.

I feel like I've oversimplified this even still. But I don't think my oversimplification would change the result. In order for a chicken to come before an egg, that organism would have to have evolved into a chicken while it was alive, and I'm pretty sure evolution does not work that way. Lol. This isn't Pokemon.
