Mine would definitely be Squirtle, he was the first start I picked
in a Pokemon game and has ever since been my first Pokemon. I named
him Aiden and I went off on my journey. The game I was playing was
an online game and you could battle other players. Most other
players picked Charmander so right off the bat I had a decent
advantage over most players in my league at the time so naturally I
worked on covering my squirtle's weaknesses which I later found to
be quite easy. I eventually created a team that had completely
covered each other's weaknesses. I then started working my way up
the pvp leaderboards. I made it to the top 100 and got excited and
decided to join a top rank tournament (which unlocks after making
it to the top 100). There were 20 other people participating, most
being NPCs. I had beat my first enemy with a single pokemon then I
got cocky and decided to try to do the same thing all the way
through. I beat the second enemy in the same way but when the third
one came around I had my first Pokemon killed in a single move(it
being a fire type and my opponent having a water type) I brought
out my grass type but as I was doing it my opponent switched to a
fire type. I desperately use leach seed but it fails and I get
knocked down to 20 hp. I switch to a ghost type type expecting my
opponent to pull a sneaky move and just as I expected he pulled out
his grass type i wiped it out using ghost ball(it's hp was
suspiciously low) then he switched back to his fire type just as i
pulled my Blastoise out. I wiped out his fire type in 2 moves then
his ghost type right after. I ended up losing to his fighting type
but I was still pretty happy with my progress. I had placed 14th in
the tournament and that was the last time I played. Thank God I
found Pokemon.
