What was the first Pokemon (excluding starters) that you successfully caught

[SlipperytheTotodile]

I have only played Blue and Yellow and Scarlet so I will exclude the other games

Blue: Pidgey
Yellow: Rattata
Scarlet: Tarountula (Later evolved into Spidops)

 

[Greninjaman]

I think for me, it was either Pidgey or Rattata in Red/Blue. I don't remember. That was 26 years ago. I don't even remember the team I used to beat the league with.

 

[Scruffyjay]

FireRed, so probably a Rattata or Pidgey. Almost 19 years ago so I don't even remember my starter either (first memorable starter was Bubbles the Blastoise, but I'm sure I must've chosen Charmander originally)

Zigzagod in Pokémon Sapphire, even though my very first (starter) was Treecko.

[BorealRookidee]

Pidgey in Yellow many years ago, was my first Pokemon caught.

I don't remember it for any other individual games except Scarlet, where my first wild encounter was a shiny Tarountula. I hadn't even seen the normal form yet.

 

[Juliyet]

Im.... Not fully sure...

My first game was BW so it was likely like Patrat or Lillipup

 

[colours]

wow this is really going to the depths of my memory here!

my first game that i've owned was ruby... so i'm going to guess zigzagoon, maybe? i'm not completely sure, but i'm also sure i didn't wait too long to get a pokemon, and i wasn't the type of person even then to catch a wingull... so zigzagoon would be my answer, i think.

 

[Terapagos]

My first game was Alpha Sapphire, so probably that one Poochyena?

 

[Die-Hard Dragon Devotee]

Zigzagoon in Emerald I think (though technically it was the Shadow Makuhita in Colosseum, since the latter was my very first Pokémon game.)

 

[Phantom345]

Pidgey in FireRed was my first catch.

 

[Princess of Lumas]

Rattata in either Pokemon Silver or Crystal. I think it was Pokemon Silver. It's hard to remember because I was probably anywhere from the age of 4-6.

 

[Pasio]

Probably some very low level Zigzagoon. It was in Sapphire. I think I remember having multiple Zigzagoon.

 

[Camille]

Mine was a Pidgey on Route 1 in FireRed, can't really remember the rest.

 

[Sheep]

I can't remember my first catches for each game, but in Blue I think it was Pidgey..! Pretty sure I used it briefly but not in the long run. Thought the idea was cool since Ash had a Pidgeotto/Pidgeot, but it was just too much of a struggle to use against Brock lol.
