My first was Yellow on a Game Boy Color.

My first Pokemon game was Pokemon Yellow played on the Super Gameboy adapter for the SNES.
Mind, the first one I actually finished was Pokemon Gold on a purple Game Boy Color. I kind of messed up my Yellow team because I don't think I understood how to play the game originally. So I got stuck at the Elite Four and didn't finish it until years later. I did eventually beat Yellow after some grinding, though.

The first Pokémon game I owned legitimately was Pokémon Diamond but I'd played the previous gens before that thanks to emulation. (My grandparents would not buy me a GBA no matter how much I begged for one as a kid so I ended up discovering VisualBoyAdvance and ROMs and therefore my first Pokémon game I played was an emulated version of I think it was Ruby in 2003. My PC's speakers didn't work so I had to play the game sans sound and I'm pretty sure the game ran kinda shit too lol)
Considering sound killed batteries on handhelds.. I played pretty much ALL the games without sound till the switch versions, sans playing on Super Gameboy and Stadium.
I stopped at Gen 3, because a DS was just getting too expensive to justify, and getting 2 to trade between games was out of the question at the time. As it was, the screen broke on my second GBA, and I had to set trades up on my working one and then do them based on sound and matching key movements. It was...an interesting time, to be sure.
Got into Pokemon GO just to catch up on all the Pokémon I missed out on.
