mine was ruby, i remember all my friends would be constantly playing, i didn't even have a gba, just one my mom friends let me borrow, and then i broke the battery cover, so she had to buy it from them and also because we kept it for like 6 months
i was so happy so i bought pokemon, over 100 hours in that game
The first Pokémon game I ever owned was Blue. You won't believe how I got it: I was trading Pokémon cards with a friend, I saw I had a non-holo Lapras (not that rare) and said 'my Lapras for your Pokémon Blue' and he agreed. It was awesome. Even more because I didn't even own a GameBoy, so later on I went to the shop and got a GBA SP.
Yellow, It was my 6th birthday. I wasn't interested in it since i didn't understand anything, but then an older friend came and showed me how's it done.
Let's see; started with Red, then got Yellow and Blue - clocked a lot of hours into those.

Pokemon Red. Then I got Blue, then Yellow, then Gold, then Silver (and some N64 pokemon games in betwee; Pokemon Stadium, Pokemon Stadium 2, Pokemon Snap). That's where I stopped. Purchasing SoulSilver/HeartGold in the near future.
started with Crystal (it was 100 gilders!) I was a complete noob when I started playing but gradualy I got to be a pro. I was playing on a battery pack which was broken (so I had the cable pluged in) on the boat and saw a shiny snabul, then my dad suddenly turned the power of the boat of to rerout it. I was so pissed!
I think I have something of +400 hours on it maybe even 550.
I like Crystals animations more than the recent games, becaus they had 5-6 sprites for every pokemon, now they have 2...
