A Sentret. God I love that thing.

Sheep December 21st, 2012 7:30 PM

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.

Sir Codin December 22nd, 2012 11:50 AM

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

AoiFushigisou December 22nd, 2012 2:04 PM

I think that in HG/SS it was Bellsprout
In D/P/Pt it was Shinx

KarosNB December 25th, 2012 4:20 PM

>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.

DakRo7 January 2nd, 2013 1:09 PM

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

Deceit January 2nd, 2013 7:59 PM

My first ever was a Bidoof in Diamond, followed by a Starly. In SS, my first caught was a Pidgey.

Sarah Morgan January 2nd, 2013 8:08 PM

Platinum it was a Starly, In Soul Silver, It was Sentret

pessimisticlyricist January 3rd, 2013 10:52 AM

Definitely bidoof because he was an hm slave

I think in hgss it was a bellsprout

Seth Rollins January 4th, 2013 3:18 PM

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.

Chaos Fork January 25th, 2013 4:54 PM

My first in HG was sentret, then hoothoot
In pearl, it was shinx and platinum it was starly

Cerberus87 January 25th, 2013 6:40 PM

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.

Theory_ January 26th, 2013 7:54 AM

Pretty sure is was a Shinx in D/P. Used through-out the whole game.
And don't remember HG/SS. Probably a Pidgey

Eeveelution Co-ordinator January 27th, 2013 9:01 AM

If I remember, it was a Starly on Diamond and on HeartGold (I borrowed from a friend) it was Bellsprout.

Mark Kamill January 27th, 2013 10:33 AM

Starly for DPt
Hoothoot for SS.
I love me those early bird Pokemon, always a part of my team.

Lunar Crescent January 27th, 2013 11:17 AM

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!

Venitardus January 27th, 2013 11:25 AM

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.

Skylands January 27th, 2013 11:32 AM

Starly in Diamond, Shinx in Platinum, Hoothoot in Soul Silver, and Senret in Heart Gold.

Imperator161 January 28th, 2013 2:06 PM

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.

Caelus January 29th, 2013 11:16 PM

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.

Urugamosu January 30th, 2013 1:32 AM

HG/SS, I think it was rattata.
And in DPPt, it was Starly.

Kikaito plush January 30th, 2013 2:02 AM

I believe my first catch in pokemon pearl was Bidoof
in HG it was a hoothoot I believe

Sweets Witch January 30th, 2013 7:53 PM

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.
