Do you remember the first episode you watched?

I remember the talk at school about Pokemon coming to the US but i missed the first 2 episodes and I ended up catching the 1st episode where Ash catches his first pokemon in episode 3.

Mine was Ready, Willing, and Sableye, a filler episode from early Hoenn that I watched when I was six years old, I think. I remember being really confused as to who Team Rocket were because I wasn't familiar with them (I had only played Sapphire at the time), and had also never seen a Meowth before. Since Team Rocket didn't interact with the main characters or any Hoenn Pokemon for a couple minutes, I initially thought the broadcaster had accidentally switched to another show, haha.

I had watched from start until the end of Sinnoh League, and after that I had not really watched much because the repeated episodes were coming on TV.

I also noticed that how younger Ash Ketchum got as the generation progresses !

I don't know. I watched Pokemon XYZ and Indigo League a metric crap ton as a little kid and had Netflix, so those are both full of nostalgia. I don't remember anything in particular, though. Just that I watched a lot of both. I also watched like the first episode of Sun and Moon and instantly hated it. Went back to XYZ. Gen 6, even though I've never played any official games, has a lot of nostalgia from the anime and a pokemon guidebook with every pokemon up to XY, as well as megas. Man, I wish I still had that book.

My first episode was S1 EP1, I Choose You. I was actually how I got introduced to the Pokemon franchise, my dad brought it up on some bootleg site one day on our ancient laptop. I didn't like it at first and thought it was too scary, but I eventually came around and ended up really enjoying it.
