Thread: Was the first Pokemon game you played your favorite?

I've noticed a trend that most people's favorite game is the one they played first. Sapphire was the first ever video game for me, and the Hoenn games are still far and away my favorites. So I was wondering, what about you? What's your favorite as opposed to your first?

Well Blue was my first game but it's definitely not my favorite, although still extremely fun to play through. I'm actually not entirely sure which game is my all-time favorite but if I had to choose I'd say Ruby or HeartGold.

Ruby because I spent ages playing and I still replay it quite a lot and it still feels really fresh and fun. It was also the first game I played again when my interest in Pokemon was reignited after a couple of years of disinterest. HeartGold simply because it's pretty much an improved version of the GenII games, which I loved. Those two games also have some of the best music of all the Pokemon in my opinion.

Ruby was my first game, and it's definitely not my favorite. Granted, I LOOOOOOVVEE it, but Emerald, Platinum, and Gen V outshine it. Besides, I can never replay Ruby. It still has a few old Pokemon from when I was seven.

Emerald was my first pokemon game and was my favorite until Black 2 came out. And that might change again once X and Y come out.

Red version was my first game, but Emerald is my favorite along with Black.

I got red and blue at the same time when I was younger, so I don't remember which one was the first I played, but neither are my favorites. My favorites now are white2 and emerald, because white2 is pretty fun and I love the pokemon in it, and emerald because Hoenn is my favorite region. I'm currently replaying emerald while waiting for X and Y to come out, and the we'll see what's my favorite.

Not really. My first Pokémon game was Pokémon Blue, yet my favorite is Pokémon Black.

Blue was the first game I played and it definitely wasn't my favourite. I guess my favourite ever is Soul Silver. I mean, there's definitely a lot to be said for nostalgia but comparing the two, SS is in an entirely different league.

Emerald First game, though i like FireRed is my favorite though.

I think my first game was Yellow, but Kanto bores me to death, I like any of the Johto games the most, a lot of my favorite pokemon came in Gen II

No, my first Pokémon game was Red version but my favourite Pokémon game is Platinum version.

My first was Diamond and I don't think Black was better than that, so yes.

Crystal was my first game, but honestly HGSS outshined it, and BW2 even more.

Even though the first Pokemon game that I played was Yellow I wouldn't call it my favorite game in the franchise. My favorite is actually Black Version.
Still, Yellow Version still holds a special place in my heart and I will hopefully continue to enjoy playing it in the future.

I played Pokemon Red first than I got blue and my game collection grew from there.
