I think mine is either the abra line because they can teleport. But then there is the muscly machop line. And then there is Dragonite… Aurgh. Gen 1 in the 90’s was my first game.
Charizard, because he’s a badass orange and red Pokemon and orange is my favorite color.
Red was my first one, I would later get blue and yellow.
Gengar. Doesn’t get better than the chubby purple terror for me.
Pokemon Blue for me. Alakazam. Had to train up this no-attack Abra thing, then find someone else with this “pokemon” game and a link cable to trade your Kadabra with. Very rewarding experience.
I remember teaching it all the elemental punches and feeling like a boss as I used super effective techniques all day long.
Nidoking. Forever and always. Its cry is etched into my memory. I love how intimidating and badass it looks, which is also reflected in the show.
Agreed. I love their evolution line. I just wish they made him taller.
Vulpix. I love foxes and it’s just so damn cute. I’m more of a water or ice kind of person, though, so it being a fire-type was always a little disappointing. Imagine my glee when the Alolan form showed up!
Eevee is a very close second place, but there are honestly so many great designs in Gen 1: the eeveelutions, Bulbasaur, Farfetch’d, Sandshrew, Oddish, Staryu, Articuno, Arcanine…
My first Pokemon game was actually Silver, though, as I didn’t have any handheld systems before then.
As a proud casual, Charizard.
If there’s only one sign that I’m actually a greymuzzle, let it be the fact that I barely kept up with Pokémon beyond Gen 1, heh. Gen 1 is the only gen as far as I’m concerned!
Lapras and Rapidash were my faves. I also rather like Cubone/Marowak.
Pokémon Red on the Game Boy was my first game! Actually I played it on the Game Boy Pocket and then the Game Boy Color. I remember getting super excited about Pokémon Snap on the N64.
Dragonite!
My favorite Gen 1 pokemon! Really great design, fun and just really cute! I’m also biased I like Dragons too.
My first pokemon game was Crystal. I though lost that copy years ago.
Nidoking because it looks cool and sheer force is awesome. My first game was crystal on my phone
Mewtwo looked cold af when I was 10.
first game red edition at release on a the gameboy color, favorite poké from gen1 charmeleon
There’s a few pokemon I really like from Gen 1. Alakazam, Magmar, and Dragonite all come to mind for some really cool ones. Gengar and Electabuzz are up there too for me.
My first game was Yellow, then Gold, Ruby, Diamond, and then I’d stopped playing until Violet. There’s so many pokemon now that I can’t consistently pick an all-time favorite, I think, they’re all too cool to pick just one.
Arcticuno best birb.
I love how the second halves of the Kanto birb names are Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres
I’m embarrassed to admit how long it was after the release of Gen 1 before I ever noticed that. >.<
