What's your first pokemon game you bought and played?
 
What was the first pokemon game (Any including spin-off) you first bought and played?

Back then when I was just a child, I demanded my dad to buy me a gameboy and the first game that I bought was Gold (or maybe was Silver) and I played it, later I got myself a GBA SP for my birthday and I'm hooked to Dungeon series as well LG. and more demanding I was; I got my DS then played Pearl.

So could you share your first pokemon base game.

The first game I played and bought was Pokemon Diamond. Though I did try out Sapphire and the other previous gen games after a bit.

My first was either gold, silver, LG, FR, Ruby, or Sapphire. Not sure which.

Azire February 8th, 2014 2:14 PM

The first game I played was Red. I then played Yellow, Gold, Silver.

The first game I bought was Emerald.

I also played Leaf Green before buying Emerald. I forgot to mention that one.

The first Pokemon game I bought is... X
Yes, surprisingly I don't play pokemon since long, I started like in 2009 and everything was just emulators... Before 2009 I knew Pokemon only thanks to anime.

Tyranitarite February 8th, 2014 2:24 PM

Mine was FireRed, but I would've got the original, if i was alive when it came out....

TwilightBlade February 8th, 2014 3:04 PM

I remember everyone being obsessed with Pokemon in 2nd grade, which was 1999 for me. So yeah, I got Blue version for Christmas around that time, either '98 or '99. I bought a game from every generation since then.

PumpJack February 8th, 2014 3:11 PM

Got Blue for Christmas.

First game bought for myself was Sapphire.

The first Pokémon game that I remember playing is Gold. Well, actually my brother was playing it at the time, and I started to explore with my character. I always turned the game off because of trainer battles you can't run from. I also know that he last saved on the first floor of the Tin Tower.

Hiatus February 8th, 2014 3:26 PM

Mine would be Pokémon Blue. Didn't buy it myself; it was given to me by my dad as a Christmas gift. I found the game to be quite addicting, and would play it every day whenever I could. :) First game I bought with my own money, though, is probably Emerald.

Mikazuki February 8th, 2014 3:33 PM

I got a silver gameboy pocket and pokemon red from my grandpa for learning my times tables =]

Raine February 8th, 2014 3:34 PM

Pokemon Stadium for the N64 XD I didn't actually get into the main Pokemon games until X, which I was able to get together with my 3DS because of the gift card my friend gave me :D

Firox February 8th, 2014 3:44 PM

The first Pokemon game I actually bought with my own hard earn money was Black 2 when it first came out - then bought a DS Lite a month later. The first 2 games I own (and lost) of the 3rd gen where given to me.

Nah February 8th, 2014 3:51 PM

The first one I ever played was Yellow.

The first one I bought with my own money was....which one was it? ....Uh, I think it was.....Fire Red? Or was it White? I don't remember.

Imperator161 February 8th, 2014 10:45 PM

The first Pokémon game I bought and played was Red, in the summer of '99. I think that was actually the last one I paid for myself for quite some time (several of my subsequent games, through gen 2, I believe, were presents).

Shhmew February 8th, 2014 11:24 PM

The first Pokemon game I owned and played was Blue version around when it came out. I was very young and my parents bought it for me. I hardly understood it but the Pokemon were just so cute. *-* And from then on I was hooked, haha.

Satoshi Ookami February 9th, 2014 12:06 AM

If the question is which game I first played then it's Pokemon Silver.
If the question is which bought game I first played then it's none.
I haven't bought any Pokemon game yet =D

griever7x February 9th, 2014 5:39 PM

That's one memory I hold especially dear.
I was gifted both red and blue in Spanish at the age of 5. I didn't even know Spanish!! {D:}
This didn't stop me from finishing both of them, though. And I learned many Spanish words along the way.
One year later I got gifted a copy of yellow, in English ( which wasn't my language either ). I liked it even more, and also learned a lot of words.
This trend from my parents continued for years, and for me it became the norm, so much that basically every game I own is in English. My parents were crazy {XD}

Trainer_Deadpool February 9th, 2014 6:31 PM

The first pokemon game what I played and bought was Sapphire version

Sheep February 9th, 2014 6:58 PM

Happy Blue player here. <3 I got Red for Christmas later on so that was my second, followed by Yellow. Wish I remembered what starter I chose, though.. it was either Squirtle because it fit the blue game or Charmander because he was so cute, haha.

Radiam February 9th, 2014 7:05 PM

The first Pokemon game that I have owned was Pokemon Silver. The first one that I bought myself was Pokemon FireRed.

Timbjerr February 10th, 2014 4:12 PM

The first Pokémon game I played was Red, which was gifted to my little brother for his birthday, the year the games came out...I was helping him through the game. The first one I owned was Blue, gifted to me by my parents for Christmas two months later. The first one I bought with my own money was the pair of Diamond and Pearl, back in 2007 (one of which I gifted to my aforementioned little brother).
