Some of us don't, but I'm sure many also do. What was the first Pokémon you ever caught (excluding your starter, since it's given to you)?

Pidgey. And it was the only Pokemon that I ever trained other than Totodile during my first time playing too hahah. Pidgeot was on level... 36 or so while Feraligatr was level 60 oops.

My first one was a Poochyena on Ruby (I remember it because it's one of the early Pokémon.) I was quite fond of it, and it was the one Pokémon, besides my starter, that I didn't store on the PC. I remember it having a Fire-type move, probably Hidden Power, that made it my ace on my battle against the Ice-type Elite Four.

It would definitely have to be rattata. The first one I caught that I actually used as an asset on my team after I finally stopped overlevelling my starter though quite possibly Nidoran.

So since my first game was PMD Blue, technically I think my first one was a Poochyena (excluding the gift Magnemite).

But since we're talking trainer games, I think it was a Starly named Carly. I still have her on my Moon version I believe.

Mine was a Zubat in Pokemon Red. It took me a while to get the hang of the whole catching thing, and consequently, I didn't bother trying it until I reached Mt. Moon. That said, I don't believe I ever used that Zubat, though I did nickname it. I pretty much did a solo run with Blastoise my first play through, and I'm not sure how many other Pokemon I bothered to use until I restarted my file sometime later. The original file should still be backed up on a Mega Memory Card somewhere, so perhaps I should look for it at some point.

Even though I've got memories of the first time I watched the Pokemon anime and the first time I opened a pack of cards from the TCG, I actually have no idea what the first Pokemon that I caught was. I earliest memory I have of catching any Pokemon was Mewtwo back on my cousin's Yellow, but I knew how to catch Pokemon at that point, so I must've caught something before that.

The first Pokemon I caught in a game that I owned was probably a Sentret in Pokemon Gold, but I don't even remember the starter I picked on my first playthrough, so I might be completely wrong on that, too.

Female Nidoran in Yellow. It was on one of my friend's save. I have fond memories of using her, even though it was only for few days. I beat Brock thanks to her and got up to the Cerulean City. When I played Yellow on my own for the 1st time I caught another one.

I think... Zigzagoon or something?? Because Ruby was my first version I think that's one of the first ones that I've caught.

I don't remember exactly (that was so many years ago!) but it certainly was either Sentret or Pidgey in Route 29 in Gold.

Was supposed to be Pidgey, then I realized I had no Poke-balls. When I received Poke-balls, a Rattata appeared, then I caught it instead. I believe Abra was my 6th; I remember because I did not quite understand how the pc worked......lol. Therefore, I kept that spot for Abra who I stumbled upon by the lake near nugget bridge.
