Hello there and welcome to my countdown of my favourite Generation 1 Pokémon! After my review of Pokémon Let’s Go earlier this week, I figured I wasn’t done yet with the Pokémon train. Given that the game was a love letter to the first generation of Pokémon (even if it failed in some aspects), I figured I would pick up the mantle and rank my favourite Pokémon from the generation. It has been the generation I grew up with after all, so there are quite a lot of Pokémon that I have fond memories of. Unfortunately, that also means I have to leave some Pokémon off the list that I really wanted to address as well. Oh well, maybe I’ll do a complete tier list one day.
Before I move on to the list though, I want to address how I’m ranking these Pokémon to give you a better understanding of why some Pokémon are or aren’t on the list:
This list probably won’t be the most original out there but hey, let’s just give it a shot!
Nidoking/Nidoqueen are great in this generation. Back when I played through Yellow version I got a Nidoking and it was a permanent member of the team.
Absolutely, definitely the best Pokémon you can get very early on if you ask me!
