  • In my Platinum, it was Starly. In my Heartgold, it was Pidgey.

    Lol just noticed they're both birds.

    In Diamond, it was a little Starly. Now it's a Staraptor. ♥

  • On HG/SS, I head towards the final part of Route 45 to find a Spearow for my team. That would be my first capture.

    For D/P/Pt, I always have a Luxray in my team, so I get a Shinx first.

    On my Diamond, its a Shinx.

    On my HG game, its probably THAT SHINY SENTRET that I randomly found right after I got my Pokeballs from (whowasitagain?)

  • In DPPt I'm pretty sure it was either Starly or Shinx, as they appear very early on, and are Pokemon that looks like some I'd want to catch, but probably Starly since it's a bird. Not a bad choice either, considering it's by far the strongest of the starter birds and most bird Pokemon in general.

    I may not have played the games, but I can already predict that the first Pokemon I'm going to catch once I get my hands on the games is a Pidgey. Starter birds ftw!

  • First one I caught was a Bidoof. I planned on using it but when it reached lvl 23 I was like "Screw This" and released it.

  • Well.. this is awkward.

    My first capture in DPPt was a Bidoof I named "lucky". Oh the irony.

    My first capture in HG/SS was a Sentret. I purposely caught it just because back when I used to play GSC, my first capture was a Sentret, and I was so apalled by the new pokemon of that Gen. :P

  • It was definitely Shinx. I remember too well -- I was searching the grass just above Twinleaf Town to capture a male one with the ability Intimidate. He is now the strongest and highest level of my team. c:
