It's time to celebrate three decades of Pokémon, and what better way than to ignite a passionate debate among fans? Which Gen 1 Pokémon reigns supreme?
On February 27th, the Pokémon franchise reaches a remarkable milestone: 30 years of captivating fans worldwide. Over the years, we've embarked on countless adventures, exploring diverse regions, catching monsters, battling them, and yes, even pocketing them. But here's the twist: it's not just about the starters anymore.
While your first Pokémon of each generation holds a special place in your heart, there's often a handful of others that become your trusted allies and, dare we say, friends. Unless you're a stoic Rock-type trainer, you've likely welcomed a diverse range of Pokémon into your team and your affections.
To mark this anniversary, we're launching a series of polls to uncover your favorite Pokémon from each generation. But it doesn't end there! The winners will clash in a grand finale, a nine-generation battle to determine the ultimate favorite among the staggering 7 million Pokémon discovered so far.
Over the next nine days, we'll delve into each generation, with polls open for five days each. Starters are expected to dominate, and Pikachu's popularity is no secret (https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/03/randomnewstudyuncoversthemostpopularpokemonby_country). But wait, there's a twist! We want to spotlight the underdogs, the hidden gems that might not get the spotlight they deserve.
Before you vote, consider the lesser-known contenders from each generation. And now, without further ado, cast your vote for your favorite Gen 1 Pokémon from the National Dex. Choose wisely, as you can only select one!
Stay tuned as we reveal the winners and prepare for the final showdown. Pokémon's 30th anniversary is just around the corner, and we can't wait to see who emerges as the fan-favorite!
