Pokemon Blue was my first Pokemon game. Total classic right there. I don't like kids who came into pokemon in Gen 3-4.

i agree- cant wait to play as gold again....

lol, it makes me a bit angry when i see an expert pokemon trainer ripping off a legendary or rare pokemon from a novice. and i also dont really like the novice trainers who act like theyre king of the pokemon world. XD

Yes yellow was my favorite and i some times play it.

Pokemon Blue was my first pokemon game & Pokemon Yellow was my favorite since you got all 3 starters in it...

The first game I ever asked for my new GBC was Pokemon Red (My parents got me Tarzan instead, go fig). When I did get Red version, I remember my first starter was bulbasaur, which I promptly evolved into a venasaur in Cerulean City because I couldn't figure out that the weird graphic in the back of the robbed house was supposed to be a hole leading outside (also my first experience with online gaming guides). I've owned Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Ruby, Fire Red, and Diamond, although the only game I ever really completed was the original Red version (caught all 151 pokemon with no more cheating than the missingno glitch and a trade from a good friend for the mew). I still get nostalgic when I play the old Red version, whcih I still have despite losing Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Ruby, and my original GBC. I do like what the new games have brought to Pokemon, but there's still not much that beats the nostalgia I have when playing the true originals.

My first game was Red, and boy nothing can replace those memories

i know, i used to watch the orginal tv shows back in the day and it was so chill.

i think the thing that keeps me playing pokemon is my love of the orginal....

once it fades to time.... i will quit

I was 8 in 1999. I got Red as my first game. I now have it sitting in a wooden box on a shelf in my closet with Blue, Yellow, and Silver. I lost my Gold and Crystal verions. Had a shiny Rattata in my Crystal version too. I have all 151 pokemon in the pokedex in my Red. I still play it every once in a while.

thats cool,
back in the day i didnt know pokemon could be shiny xD
i thought it was special for the gyardous xD

Yup! Red was my first Pokemon game ever. A friend of mine was playing Crystal, then my brother got Crystal, then I got ticked off at being left out and got Red. It was so fun, I spent almost all my free time playing it. My first Pokemon was Bulbasaur. At that time, I didn't know about the Mew Trick; if I had, I would have caught and trained as many Mews as possible. I thought that Legendaries >>>>> everything else. Ah... That was fun. I'm still young, though, so I don't have to say, "Back in the day." Which is good. Because that would make me feel like I was 80.

im 16 and i say that feel like im 95 xD

"back in the day" pokemon was on one tiny non color screen not two jumbo hi-def color screens xD

I was 5 in 1999 and i got Yellow as my first, i loved it but then skipped Gen II (too young to care) and then found out about Generation IV and got emerald. Then got firered and then pearl. Hoping to get SS soon. But yeah Yellow can still be pretty fun for me. I'm 16 now and to be honest, i stilll love pokemon.

I started off with blue, i was 13 in 1999 when it came out and remenber everyone in my school playing it (i went to an all boys secondary school) it's my most played game, i have restarted it millions of times (thanks to saving my teams on stadium). i dont have it any more, my brother borrowed it and lost it!!

i remember my fav team was always Magmar, Victreebel, Blastoise/vaporeon, zapdos/jolteon, mewtwo and Golem

i got blue as my first pokemon game and i was 5 in 1999 and i still have it and play it at times i also have fire red but as some say it doesnt feel the same

I was 9 in 1999 but I got Red when I was 7... I managed to have 150 pokemon and the only one I missed was... Bulbasaur!!! Then it resetted on its own, so the only one completed now is Crystal, with more than 600 playing hours on it... But until I bought DS I played with all of my Game Boy games: Red, Yellow (then swapped with Blue of my girlfriend), Gold and Crystal...

Red was my first. I had 2 copies of Red, 1 of Blue, and 1 of Yellow... both my blue and red were destroyed by the MissingNO bug but my second red was a competition version with all my level 100s on there and I never attempted to clone items in that version.

However my Blue version was my "torture my friends" version. I had on that one my level 249 pokemon. Remember if you caught the MissingNO counterpart bug codename "Mysterio" (his actual name appeared something like this "/\III/\*****" and also looked like a totem pole. Once you caught him the battle continued thereafter. You could throw a pokeball at the empty space in the battle and it would generate a random pokemon at level 155. You could feed it Rare Candies until it hit 249.... (at level 250 it actually reverted back down to level 0).

My level 249 Pokemon were:
Tauros
Marowak
Electrode
Raichu
Rhydon
Chansey

I use to torture people with these because when you would plug your game into Pokemon Stadium for N64 the 249 Level pokemon would show up as level 100. People were so freaked out my Marowak was one shotting a team full of Mewtwos

My first game was blue in 1998 I was 9 then and still today I play it from time to time need to save blue version team though. I remember my epic sandslash that could not be beaten by anything except a water type in that same game jolteon and chansey were also dominant oh how things were different back then. oh sandslash was the premiere ground type of gen 1 In my opinion nothing will ever beat the long gone team of sandslash alakazam charizard Raichu Vaporeon and victreebel ah but I like Gen 2 better

I was six when I first got Pokemon Red. I LOVED that thing. I picked Charmander because Charizard was on the cover. That hooked me on Charizard. I miss those times.

In response to the original post, every night I kneel down and ask the Pokemon overlords to make sure my Blue Version still works in the morning. Now that's devotion, my friends.

I've never heard anybody call ▄█ 'M ▓▒ "Mysterio" before. But once I caught one and named it Cloudie because of one of its party screen icons kinda looking like a cloud. (???????????????)

My first game was Green. (Lived in Japan for 6 years before moving back to the US) Great times with that game, until the battery died, and the game disappeared. I didn't understand the Japanese, but I knew the general idea of how to play, and named everything after myself in japanese. I received an american red and blue later, but it all started with green for me, and has continued through the generations.

Mine was red and is still my favourite.
