First Pokemon ever captured
Out of the Fourth Generation of Pokemon Gaming, what was your first ever captured Pokemon. (This excludes starters!) What was your first ever capture within HGSS? DPPt? Can you remember?
To be totally down to earth, I can't remember. But it'd probably have to be either Shinx or Starly in DPPt and either Pidey or Sentret in HGSS. Out of the generation as a whole, I'd place a bet on either Shinx or Starly due the fact that I had bought and played Diamond, before I got my hands on Heart Gold. |
My first capture in SoulSilver was a Rattata.
In both Pearl and Platinum it was a Starly. |
For HeartGold, the first Pokemon that I ever caught was Caterpie. It ended up becoming the leader of my team throughout the game, and it's one of the only Pokemon I've actually taken time to train up to level 100.
I'm having a hard time remembering what my first capture was in Platinum, even though I started it after HeartGold. I'm thinking that it was Bidoof, though, because I know I caught one just north of Jubilife, before I really did anything in the city. It was terribly difficult to train, but did manage to be my HM slave for a small while until I found a much higher leveled Bibarel to replace it. |
My first pokemon was starly. then i got shinx. Both came into my team.
In SS, my first was sentret, or it was rattata. dun remember... |
In Pearl my first catch was shinx. (Also the first pokemon I encountered with pokeballs.)
In Heart Gold it was Bellsprout. :) |
It was a Starly and that Starly was the only pokemon i liked more them my starter pokemon in sinnoh. HG/SS Was Geodude in the cave before violet city.
|
Wow... that's hard...
I know it was in Pearl... but if it was Starly or Bidoof, that's something I cannot recall... In SS it was probably Pidgey or Sentret. I don't care much about first captures as they usually aren't the ones that I use. |
I totslly caught Bidoof first all the way, man.
|
In SoulSilver I started the game at night time or the beginning of night times so my first capture has a Hoothoot; which I actually used through my gameplay.
In Diamond my first capture was Shinx which I also used in my team. I actually started a new game in SouSilver today because I felt like it and my first capture was a Bellsprout which I will soon evolve into a Victrebell when that one trainer in the route under Goldernrod City give me my Leaf Stone. |
In both Pearl and Platinum it was a Shinx. In Pearl it made it into my in-game team. I even killed multiple Starly and Bidoof beforehand to ensure my first capture would be Shinx so I'm pretty confident that it was my first capture.
|
My first in Pearl + Platinum was Starly. I loved Staraptor as it proved very useful so thats a plus. In SoulSilver it was Pidgey I think... I can't really remember. But I don't really remember getting a Sentret or a Bellsprout, due to the fact they aren't very good.
|
The first-ever Pokemon I caught in Gen IV was Bidoof, much to my annoyance. Since then, strangely enough, I've run into more Bidoof than Starly in D/P/Pt.
|
Shinx for me in Pearl. Zubat in soulsilver.
|
I first caught a Starly I believe. I always forced myself to knowing I would need a bird later in game. :l
|
In both Pearl and Platinum I would always catch a Starly, knowing it would become useful in late-game.
As for HGSS, it was a Pidgey, for the same reasons. Come to think of it, I believe I always catch a flying type first. |
In HG it was a Mareep because I'd already played GS and I knew what team I wanted and where to get them, but for Pearl I caught literally everything I came across first time so I'm guessing it was either a Bidoof or Starly xD Although I seem to remember it being a Kricketot which only knew Bide so I got rid of it to use something cooler like a derpface Bidoof.
|
For Platinum I think from memory it was a Bidoof or starly xD. Must of been either one,Bidoof for HM Purposes and Starly just because I thought it's final evolution looked cool :D.
And Heartgold,I'm going to guess Mareep since it's the first electric type and generally I catch those. |
Of all the Gen , it was a Shinx I believe, in Diamond. In HG , it was a Sentret.
|
In Diamond, it was a Shinx and in SoulSilver it was a Pidgey.
|
In Diamond, I caught a Starly first.
In Heartgold, I caught a Pidgey first. |
From Platinum, Starly or Bidoof.
From SS it was Bellsprout. |
D/P Starly
HG/SS Pidgey I don't know why but I always aim for the birds first XD Well Pidgey I catch first cause its my favorite Pokemon, but still XD |
In Diamond I think I caught a shinx first (I may have caught a starly before it, but I'm pretty sure it was shinx)
In Heartgold I believe it was a mareep. I think. XD |
Bidoof, which I automatically deposited lol.
In HGSS I think it was Bellsprout. Traded it for an Onyx. |
In HG my first pokemon i caught was pidgey and in Dp it was starly
|
My first captured Pokèmon in HGSS was Pidgey. In DPPT was Starlly.
|
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. ♥
|
My first Pokemon caught in Diamond was Shinx.
My first Pokemon caught in HG was a Zubat xD |
In HeartGold my first capture was a pidgey and on diamond it was a shinx I think.
|
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! |
In Diamond, it was a Shinx. And now he's probably one of my best teammates right now :)
|
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 the first Pokemon I recieved was a Piplup, but the first one I caught was a Starly. ^^
|
My first catch in Platinum was a Starly.
And the first catch in HG was a Hoothoot. |
In pokemon diamond the first pokemon i caught was a starly sadly it didnt make into my final team was replaced by my honchkrow. then in pokemon platinum i believe i caught a starly again. in pokemon heartgold it was my geodude
|
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:
|
In Pearl I believe it was a starly.
|
In SoulSilver, it was probably Heracross somewhere in Azalea City. I reeeeeeeeeally don't like capturing Pokemon that I won't use on my final team, so avoid it wherever possible. Because I also plan out my team before I even start the game, I have a good idea of what I'm going to get when in an early stage, and prepare accordingly. The first two gyms were fine for my lil' Cyndaquil/Quilava to use on their own, and when I got Headbutt, I headbutted me a Heracross as fast as I could! (When I played Gold, I probably got a Mareep beforehand, but I'd told myself I was going to wait for a Magnemite this time around.)
As for Platinum, I got me a nice lil' HM Slave Bidoof. To love and care for and not completely abuse as an unintended byroduct of me forcing all of my HMs on it. Not at all. |
Gold, Sentret.
Ruby Emerald, Zigzagoon. Firered, Pidgey. Diamond Platinum, Starly. Heartgold, Pidgey. Black, Lillipup. Yep, I still remember! |
Mine was a Starly. Knew I would need a fly type.
|
It was either Shinx or Starly. I knew it was one of those two at around the same time.
|
Either Bidoof or Shinx in Platinum.
|
Diamond was a Starly, I believe. My second-caught Starly is still around, but now she's a level 100 Staraptor <3 My starter (which I know doesn't count) was Piplup. D:
SoulSilver was a Sentret, I think? With my starter being Cyndaquil. |
Hmmm in Diamond I remember catching a shiny Shinx... but I don't remember if it was the first one... I started it in the middle of the night. 8D But I think It was something more common like Starly. Still have the little kitten, named Simba. (Oh how unoriginal... *goes to hide*)
Platinum was the same sort of, middle of the night start up. I think I went all the way to Jubilife without catching a thing. Then I caught a Budew around 7am while grinding. SoulSilver - Sentret. Because I needed someone for my team who can Surf and use a lot of HMs. HeartGold for me has too many resets already that it's not significant. |
starly evo`d into staraptor i was happy when it happend
|
This is very hard for me in Pokemon Soul Silver to remember, I think it was a Pidgey and as for Pokemon Platinum and Pearl, it was def. a Starly.....hmmm all Normal/Flying types
:t354:TG |
A Sentret. God I love that thing.
|
In HG I'm pretty sure my first Pokemon was a lv. 2 or 3 Pidgey. Maybe a Sentret but for some reason my mind's focusing more on Pidgey, so it was probably that. Wish I could remember. D:
Definitely don't remember for D/P/Pt, but I'm inclined to say it was Starly. |
I think Starly was my first in DPPt
For HGSS, it was a Bellsprout...just so I could get an Onix in a trade. XD |
I think that in HG/SS it was Bellsprout
In D/P/Pt it was Shinx |
>Shinx.
That shiny lion is the best <3 |
My first capture in any of the gen IV games - in Diamond - was a Shinx. I sort of expected another Skitty or Meowth, and was surprised when I saw it was Electric. Other than occasionally making space for things I was training and leveling, it never left my team.
My first captures in both Pearl and Platinum were also Shinxes, and very deliberately. |
Platinum was Starly and in SoulSilver I caught a Pidgey.
|
Shinx that I used for the rest of the game and later transferred to Soul Silver in Diamond. And a Pidgey in Soul Silver that I evolved and kept right up until the elite four
|
My first ever was a Bidoof in Diamond, followed by a Starly. In SS, my first caught was a Pidgey.
|
Platinum it was a Starly, In Soul Silver, It was Sentret
|
Definitely bidoof because he was an hm slave
I think in hgss it was a bellsprout |
In Platinum my first Pokemon ever caught was a Bidoof or a Starly...iI think it was Bidoof.
In HG/SS my first capture...was a Hoothoot! He's a Noctowl lv.67 now. |
My first in HG was sentret, then hoothoot
In pearl, it was shinx and platinum it was starly |
Starly.
When I started playing 4th gen I was lucky encounter rate wasn't time based in Platinum (for the most part), I could only play during the night so if it was like HGSS I would've missed out on certain Pokémon. |
Pretty sure is was a Shinx in D/P. Used through-out the whole game.
And don't remember HG/SS. Probably a Pidgey |
If I remember, it was a Starly on Diamond and on HeartGold (I borrowed from a friend) it was Bellsprout.
|
Starly for DPt
Hoothoot for SS. I love me those early bird Pokemon, always a part of my team. |
Starly and Hoothoot, i always use them as i encounter them early on and i tend to linger with them for a while, they might not be the BEST but they are certainly capable of doing their flying duties!
|
Starly for Diamond and Platinum, Sentret for HG and Hoothoot for SS. Starly and Hoothoot are the best normal/flying types in my opinion. For Sentret in HG, though, I never had an official pure normal typpe on my team. so i decided to capture a Sentret for my team.
|
Starly in Diamond, Shinx in Platinum, Hoothoot in Soul Silver, and Senret in Heart Gold.
|
I'm not sure what my first Pokemon in DPPt was, but I think it was either Bidoof or Starly. I want to say it was Bidoof in Diamond (the first gen 4 game I played), but I have no clue what it was in the other versions.
In HG/SS, I think it was Hoothoot. It could have been Sentret on HG, but I think I started both games at night, so Hoothoot seems more likely. |
On Diamond the first pokemon I captured was a starly. I caught it almost immediately after getting my pokeballs.
On Heartgold I think I caught Slowpoke first. I don't really remember it too well. |
HG/SS, I think it was rattata.
And in DPPt, it was Starly. |
I believe my first catch in pokemon pearl was Bidoof
in HG it was a hoothoot I believe |
In SS it was a Mareep that I then used in a solo run, but overall I think it was a Starly or a Shinx in Pearl. I always catch one or both of them early on, so there's a 99.999% chance that it was them and a .001% chance that it was a Kricketot.
|
In my Diamond, I first caught a Starly. I caught a Shinx in Platnium.
I don't exactly remember who I caught first in SS... I think it might have been a Mareep. Not too sure, though. |
In SoulSilver, my first caught Pokemon would be either a Pidgey or a Sentret. Or was it a Ratata? I don't remember.
In Pearl and Platinum, it would have to be either Bidoof or Starly. |
In Pearl, I caught a Shinx in the route above Sandgem town. I named him Shadow because Luxray's hair reminds me of Shadow's quills, lol.
Either after capturing my first Pokemon or after finishing some battles, not sure, I also got Pokerus that early in Pearl. As for HGSS, my first capture was a Pidgey. I named him Peanuts, after my original Pidgey in Gold. |
In Pearl, I caught a Bidoof. Named him "HM SLAVE".
In SS, I caught a Sentret, also named "HM SLAVE". So unique :P |
I caught a pikachu.
How? Because im a badass. Thats why. In all seriousness i caught a shinx first. First ever? A pidgey. Because im anime-canon like that |
In my Diamond, I caught a Bidoof;
In my Platinum, I caught a Bidoof; In my SoulSilver, I caught... a Hoothoot... because it was already evening when I caught it. |
My first Pokemon was a Rattata. I REALLY hate Rattatas.
|
Diamond:Starly
Platinum:Starly HG: Pidgey SS:Marrep |
My first catch in HG was Caterpie.
|
my first pokemon in my first pokemon game was bidoof i caught in my pearl. didnt know how useless it was then. got rid of him after a short while
Posted from Pokecommunity.com App for Android |
I think the first pokemon i caught was starly, and i kept him in my team for a long time
|
When I got Pokemon Pearl, I was lucky enough for the first Pokemon I caught in Gen IV was a Shinx that I nicknamed Lithium for it being an electric type.
|
pokemon platinum ,pokemon diamond first pokemon ever caught was my rival's starter.
no seriously, using action replay but the second and third time it was bidoof in both games |
in SS it was rattata :) dis not like it but i used it the i left it at the PC and did not check it ever
more xD |
In Diamond it was a Starly that went nicely with my Turtwig at the time.
|
My first catch in the fourth generation was a Starly in Pokemon Diamond, who I used in my team. Turned out to be quite a fighter.
|
in HG/SS, my first capture pokemon is hoothoot. in D/P/Pt, my first capture pokemon is shinx.
|
Starly was my first capture and I still have him in my Diamond team.
|
My First Pokemon which I cathced is...
D/P/PT - I first catch (Suprise but) Shinx. HG/SS - I first catch allways Spearow. |
I first played Heartgold/Soulsilver at night so my first wild Pokemon to be caught was a Hoot-hoot! :D In Diamond I recall it being a Starly. :)
|
Pearl - Starly
Soul Silver - Pidgey |
Yep, Starly in Pt.
Really good pokemon, best flying type imo. |
Pearl: bidoof
Heartgold: Mareep |
DPPt, it was probably Bidoof or Starly. As for HGSS, I know the first thing I caught in SS was a Hoothoot. I was really excited that my copy had arrived (first time I got an imported game), but it was night time when I started playing. I just decided to catch stuff I saw even though they were old Pokemon, but you know, it was a new game. And the first thing I ran into was a Hoothoot I thought I wouldn't keep. I named her Cool and took her all through the game with me. n___n This is probably why I like owls so much now and Noctowl became one of my favorites because of this playthrough. So yeah!
|
Pretty sure my first in PT was a Starley too haha
