    Pikachu. The first time I saw it was when I was in fifth grade. For show and tell, my classmate brought in some Pokemon-related stuff, including a Pikachu plushie.

    Shortly after I saw Ponyta on a trading card.

    Then I saw some Pokemon pictures on someone's lunchbox. Among them were Jigglypuff, Dewgong, Ninetales, and Weezing.

    It wasn't until about a year later that I saw the anime and got Pokemon Yellow.
     
    Ah, intreguing question! :D

    Back in 1999 when I was 11 I saw some Pokemon on a Nintendo Gameboy guide, which I bought, but I was uninterested until later that year I had a holiday in Bermuda and cos they are ahead of us with cartoons and such I saw the Pokemon anime for the very first time! I remember watching "Here comes the Squirtle Squad" with Goldeen chasing Pikachu who fell into the water. Ironically I have never met the person whose house I stayed in while watching the Pokemon anime- they are just friends of my Aunts! Anyway got the game a few months later and the rest is history...

    In answer to the question: Pikachu and Goldeen!
     
    Probably the retarded little yellow mouse that followed you around in yellow version.

    Figure that riddle out.
     
    The first pokemon I saw I remember clearly.... I was 7 at Christmas... I went to open my present and i got a pack of pokemon cards and the first card at the top of the stack was a charizard... lol i didn't know it at the time but it was one of the rarest cards till all the new ones came out...=/


    So my first pokemon seen was charizard.

    I however don't collect pokemon cards anymore..

    I saw Cyndaquil first, and I thought it was awesome, so I decided to keep playing, and well, here I am!
     
    I think the first Pokèmon I saw were more than one. XD If I remember well they were Pikachu, Togepi, Bulbasaur and Squirtle. My cousin made me see an article from the magazine Times, where they talked about Pokemon (which was still to come here in Italy) and there was a picture taken from the first movie. XD
     
    Pikachu, propably. I think I saw it on a free booklet that had some toys and other stuff in it. There was a picture of Ash, Misty, Brock and Pikachu running. I wondered who they were, because almost nobody knew about pokemon in Finland that time. Couple weeks later Pokemon started to come from tv, so the next pokemon I saw were the pokemon shown in the beginning of the first episode. I missed the end of that episode, because my mom turned the tv off saying I had watched too much tv that morning. ;__;
     
    Pikachu and Meowth, simultaneously. I didn't know anything about Pokemon until I saw the anime, and the first episode I've seen was "The Ghost of Maiden's Peak" (in its first airing in the US -- man, I'm old). I remember it was the scene where Ash and the gang and Team Rocket (lax Brock and James) were looking for... well, Brock and James. The one where Jessie proceeds to do the motto alone. So, naturally, Pikachu and Meowth were there, helping to find their menfolk.

    Good times. Awesome episode too. And that remains one of my favorite scenes ever in the Pokemon anime.
     
    Wow, I have the same avatar as the first poster. >D

    First Pokemon? Either Charizard, on my Red box, or Pikachu, from the anime.
     
    Mine were squirtle and caterpie. I walked up to my friend in school and he was playing blue. He told me he was looking for a pikachu in viridian forest. and got in a battle with squirtle and caterpie. (This is how i found out about pokemon too.)
     
    First Pokémon I ever seen were the pokémon Ash was dreaming about (Charmandes, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur). Plus Nidorino, Gengar, and Onix on Ash's tv.
     
    Hmmm.... I think the Pokemon I first saw was either Pikachu or Pidgeyotto. What makes it strange is that I THOUGHT it was the wild Pikachu one.. the one where Pikachu goes to join the wild Pikachu temporarily. I even remember that it was night time in the episode itself, and I THOUGHT I remember seeing all the Pikachu tied up, but then later I have the episode on dvd and I watch it and am like "Wait, Pidgyotto never appears in this episode!" XD
