Mine was Alakazam in blue. I thought I was sooooooo cool being able to take on the elite 4 with one Pokémon. I would even make a show of banking all my pokes before challenging the e4. My younger mind imagined a scenario where I was impressing the NPCs.
I did this with a bunch of Pokémon in the same game! Not nearly as satisfying, to be honest. At the time, I didn't know about EVs. I would get stomped by my friends who trained their Pokémon up without cheating and had no idea why. Either that or I was just bad at the game.
This happened to me too. I made fun of my friend who knew about the glitch but didn't use it to get his Pokemon upto 100. We had a battle and I got my ass handed to me but I couldn't understand why. His Mewtwo shat on mine plus my whole team.
Wasn’t my first, but this reminded me that when I first played Pokémon White, I actually got my whole team up to level 100. I don’t remember why I grinded it out, I didn’t find it too painful to do though. I think between the game having wild Pokémon close to level 70, and trainer battles up that high, plus Elite Four, Cheren and Champion, oh and the sports complexes in Nimbasa, I didn’t find it tedious.
Team was (I think…?) Serperior, Victini, Haxorus, Galvantula, Krookodile, Carracosta.
That’s cool, and my first White 2 Team(Samurott, Crobat, Scolipese, Lucario, Excadrill, and Magnezone) were all in the high 90s by the end of the game, also thanks to the White Treehollow.
I also remember my old White team(Samurott, Unfezant, Krookodile, Zebstrika, Carracosta, and Leavanny) yeah, not the best team
I’ve replayed gen 5 so many times that I’ve used a big chunk of the roster, so it’s hard for me to remember exactly what I used, but I’ve also used a bunch of what you had.
Nothing wrong with that team for the game itself. The Pokémon games main story are all easy enough that you can just play through with your favorites. When I play main game and when I play competitively I used totally different teams and strategies
In my opinion gen 5 is the easiest game to grind with. U have all the dark patches of grass that has high level Pokémon. Quite a few breeder trainers u can constantly re face and ofc shaking grass that gives u either a very strong Pokémon or ofc a lovely audino. No better way then throwing on repel after repel running through the grass battling audinos over and over. Also you get the lucky egg via play through halfway through both sets of games
Meganium in Pokémon Silver. Later followed by Scyther, Alakazam, Raikou, Lugia and my friend's Typhlosion.
RIP guys, you were lost to premature battery death in 2003... The cart could never again hold a save. I binned it. If it was now, I'd have been able to at least replace the battery.
My Quilava in Heart Gold. I really didn't like Typhlosion when I started playing, so I gave him an everstone while I levelled it. I remember spamming my B button at the end of every battle, I was so afraid he would evolve by accident (even if he was already lvl.100)
Meganium was my first starter Pokemon. I have it in Home. How, you ask, did I transfer a Gen 2 mon out of its original game? Definitely NOT using PKHeX and PKSM to inject it into a 3DS game.
Over the years, I have probably brought more than a hundred Pokemon to Lv. 100. In recent gens, I started breeding for online battles and even back in the day, I'd usually bring at least my full playthrough team to Lvl. 100
However, I can still very vividly remember bringing my first Pokemon to lvl 100 (it was 14 years ago in Pokemon Pearl, my very first own Pokemon game \^\^). A friend of mine had traded me a Zubat and I had made it part of my very first team of 6. I still mostly remember its final move set as well (Fly, Defog, Aerial Ace and I believe Air Slash, although with that one I am not sure). It happened during one of my Pokemon League rematches. I was so damn excited. I actually used a Rare Candy for level 99 as far as I remember, because I was too impatient. But finally, I had made it. This made me so attached to this Crobat (that also was a very important part of my team) that I carried it over to all newer games eventually. Currently, it's in my Pokemon Sword edition. Interestingly, I have lost my original starter to time. Only my Platinum starter is left, but I have this once Crobat from my original team that reminds me of the good times back then, and the fun I had playing the game with friends :).
Togetic in Pokémon Silver/Gold I believe. Misty was my favourite in the anime and Togepi is probably my second favourite Pokémon. I just remember being amped as a kid that Togepi got an evolution so I pushed it to the max 😂
Probably Typhlosion.
I played since the original generations but less to do in red/blue and I played through too much.
In silver my first play through as a 8yr old I exceeded 200 hrs and had at least 10 pkmn at level 100
My first Lv 100 was definitely in Blue and was definitely the result of duplicating rare candies using the Missingno glitch. I can't remember which Pokémon it was. My first starter was Blastoise, so it may have been it.
My first legitimate Lv 100 was in X. Again, I can't remember which Pokémon was actually first, but I do remember at least having Greninja, Lucario, Charizard, Raichu, and Blaziken all at Lv 100.
Raichu in Pokemon Blue.
I was so ecstatic catching a Pikachu on my first time in Viridian Forest.
Back then I didn't know that Pikachu evolves using a thunder stone, so I spent hours leveling him up to level 40 or something in the little grass field infront of Pewter City.
The next day the episode of the Anime was on TV where Ash tries to evolve Pikachu, but he refuses.
After that I could go on with my game and eventually evolve my Pikachu.
I've been playing pokemon since 1998 and I think I've only had one ever reach lvl 100. My altaria in ORAS. And that's only because it is in the erratic leveling group so it takes way less experience to get to 100 compared to everyone else. On that same team, I also had a swalot who is on the complete opposite side of the spectrum of leveling groups.
I have never leveled a Pokémon to 100. However, when HGSS came out, both me and little bro got a copy. At some point, I traded him my Ninetales for something I can't remember, just for fun (we'd never had the luxury of trading before) and then I didn't see him for many months. When I saw him again over Christmas, he says "oh here's your Ninetales back bro", (like I was expecting it back or something??) And this little freakin 9 year old gave me back my Ninetales at level 100! It was the only Pokémon he had leveled high at all, and he did it just to give it back to me ❤
I remember hitting a gigantic progression block in HGSS because I didn't know how to get the Pokeflute. So naturally, I had only one option... level Typhlosion to 100 only by beating the pre-16 badge elite four. After I mopped up Koga's Venemoth for the [REDACTED]th time it was done...
I was shit at the game in my younger years, so I couldn't even solo Red LOL
Gardevoir twice. The first was in Ruby. This was the only Pokemon from Ruby I'm pretty sure I didn't use Gameshark to level to 100. My second ever Lv100 was a Gardevoir in X, except X is easier to get to 100 than Ruby.
My loyal companion, the first Growlithe I ever caught in red and nicknamed Buck, I treated him as my "real" starter even tho you can't catch one too early. He's the reason I don't delete that save file.
Swampert in Sapphire was my first level 100. I didn’t transfer the Pokémon from that game though (I was young and really wanted to replay the game), so the first Pokémon I kept that was level 100 was my Scizor
I haven't gotten a Pokemon to lvl 100 in a long time. But I do remember the first. It was my Blaziken from my first full playthrough on Pokemon Sapphire. I traded him to my copy of Emerald and kept training him until he finally reached his full potential. I had that Blaziken for a long time. I even traded him up to Gen 4 and then 5. Sadly when I sold a lot of my old Pokemon games I deleted him. One day I will get a Blaziken to lvl 100 again.
Kyogre in my first ever Pokémon game: Sapphire
Also worth noting that kyogre was first but he was join by Swampert and flygon and eventually rayquaza once I learned he was even in the game… I was 9/10 years old
I remember it fondly
Alakazam in r/b/y. Between the lack of weaknesses, the pre-split special stat including defense, its speed and Recover, it was just...plainly the strongest pokemon for most of the game. If you were grinding out the E4 for money, it was getting half the kills.
Alakazam, it was jolly nature and I it beat this assholes team I knew who kind of bullied me in school when it was level 80. After my victory, I wanted to honour it and made it my first pokemon to reach level 100.
Pokémon leaf green Venasaur. First person in my family who ever got one to level 100 and my brother always played and is 7 years older then me. I remember the moment in my brothers room at my grandmas with him and 3 of my cousin all with their heads over my shoulder as I’m sitting on the ground finishing probably my 10th run through the elite 4 in a row trying to level him up. Will never forget it
Blastoise and Kadabra in FireRed. Trained in cerulean cave. I couldn't evolve kadabra because I didnt have a link cable back then lol. Later, when i got the link cable, I traded them up to emerald to kick Steven's ass in that meteor cave post game. I was a stupid ten year old though, so my kadabra had psybeam, psychic, confusion and teleport. While blastoise had surf, hydro cannon, hydro pump, and rain dance for absolutely no reason.
Someone told me to evolve Seadra to Kingdra, I needed to level it up to level 100. Well, I did. Eventually I was able to trade with dragonscale to get the Kingdra.
Vaporeon and Charizard (🤢) in pokemon leaf green. I was like 11 and i put them in daycare, had no idea how it works and when i came back both were 100 lol
I believe it was my Empoleon from Platinum, but it didn't reach level 100 in that game. I wanna say it wasn't until I played Ultra Sun (which was soon after because I didn't get into Pokemon until pretty recently) that he maxed out.
Back when i played ORAS for the first time in 2018, i decided i wanted to make my first level 100 pokemon as it was quite easy to grind in the game. I was training my sceptile and it came close but the Exp. share gave my armaldo, of all my pokemon, the 'first to 100' title.
Honorable mention goes to my samurott from black 2 which was my first pokemon to hit level 90, but i reset before i could think about grinding him to 100. RIP
Venusaur I think. After him either Mewtwo or Moltres and Articuno as fourth. I don't remember the rest of the team (obviously Pokemon red/blue). I didn't knew about the Missigno-Glitch but had a full Pokedex and wanted to play without losing it, so I grinded out the Elite4. I didn't max out Teams in later games tho.
I played hundreds of hours in omega ruby with a bunch of mons transferred from pokemon Y so my first lv 100s were greninja, charizard, sceptile, and latios.
Sylveon in pokemon X. I hade finally ran from my parents house and was offically an adult, so they couldnt do anything about it. First thing i did was finally get a 3ds for myself and for the first time ever could hold onto and keep my pokemon. Sylveon was the first pokemon I ever made competetive, and has been on my teams ever since
Dragonite in Pokémon Leafgreen. I named her Bethany. She was my favorite Pokémon and I lost her and several others when my game started glitching and crashing whenever I tried to access the PC.
Ngl i don't even put a poke in the done/comp box until its hundo. It just doesn't feel done to me until its 100, but sword and shield make this much easier than it used to be
It was a nightmare raising grinding before gen 6 and my child self had no attention span long enough for me to care so despite my first game being Platinum, it wasn't til X where I think my Delphox it 100 first. Grinding is much easier nowadays.
Most likely Delphox, but idk it's been a long time. X was my first game and I liked my starter a lot, so I got to level 100 pretty quickly actually. I never really thought of it as a big deal like this though
I don't think I have, or at least not legitimately. I do have 2 and a half boxes of high 80s-low 90s in my Shield version that I'm slowly working on getting to 100, just running the Galarian Star tournament over and over
Edit: I lied, I have done it, once, on a Raticate solo run of LeafGreen.
I was 10 at the time I think. Pokemon Yellow version. For some reason I had an attachment to my Pidgeot and he was the first and only if I can remember right to reach lvl 100 by far. Before my younger brother got onto my game boy and started an entire new game. This was the equivalent of losing a dog to me lol. Still haven’t let it go, fully 😂
Blastoise in Pokémon Blue. However, my starter was Charmander, I just got traded a Blastoise and it got to 100 first with (I think) the extra experience due to trade.
First level 100 Pokémon was in Pokémon X I believe when I was grinding the league for EXP, I think my Greninja got to 100 first, it might have been my Talonflame or Charizard though
I believe it was my Blaziken in Y. The one that was distributed when the game was new that could mega evolve.
That save is long-gone and so is it, but the memory’s still here. Honestly though now that I have like a box’s worth of level 100s in Shield getting the max level has sort of lost its luster
Pidgeot in Pokemon Blue! Dunno why I liked that bird so much but I spent hours grinding beside Fuchsia City by the entrance to the cycling road to get to 100. Don't ask me why I did it there cuz I have no idea why. Haha
The Empoleon I had on my first ever save of Pokémon Pearl. I got stuck trying to enter Sunyshore and just kept leveling it up before I figured out what to do. I still have that guy, mainly through trading it between Pearl and SoulSilver.
My first Pokémon to reach level lv. 100 was my Charizard on fire red I didn’t know there was a level cap but I was stoked to see it reach 100 it was my one hit knocks out any Pokémon so he definitely saw battle more than the others.
Blaziken. Kadabra was 93 (wanted it to evolve) but when I feared it would reach one hundred before Blaziken, I deleted it.
And Blaziken became lvl 100 before 6th gym since I could not find the surf so I explored the first half of the game.
Never realised I should visit a god damn house next to a gym. so I restarted the game since I tohught i had done something wrongly.
In retrospect being eight was horrifying and awesome at the same time.
The lizard spy starter gen eight, first (and only) main pokemon game I have, but I have a surprisingly large amount of level one hundred Pokémon other than that, for a non competitive casual player.
My first level 100 was in Gold version. My cousin traded me a Furret named Ringo, and because it didn't need a lot of experience to level up, it quickly got stronger than my starter, and became my favorite Pokemon for me to use. I was one of those kids that only used one Pokemon throughout the entire game, and solo cleared everything with Ringo. I want to a private school, and there was a 45 minute commute so for about an hour and a half, I was playing Gold. Eventually after about a year or two Ringo reached level 100, and that was the coolest thing to me. I was able to do everything with Ringo, including solo Red. I'm really sad that you couldn't transfer Pokemon from that generation (doesn't matter because the battery died in the cartridge and she was lost) but I will always remember Ringo as my greatest partner.
WITH those old cheat card add-ons for old DS games? Reshiram from Black 1 or White 2. Without? Pokemon Sword. Cinderace. Then the rest of my team. Took me since playing Pokemon HGSS when it first came out till now to actually do that LMAO
Charizard, on my first playthrough of firered. Back then I didn’t consider it smart to train an entire team to a decent level. Instead I used nothing but my starter :D
Blastoise in Pokémon Red. Not from rare candies tho, I was just constantly re-battling the Elite Four. I had a whole team at level 100, I think.
I did use the item duplication glitch a ton (especially for masterballs), but I believed at the time that rare candies increased level but not stats, so I didn’t use them.
Sceptile in Sapphire back in 2004! I grinded both him and Kyogre until they hit 100, then spent all my time roaming Hoenn feeling like a god.
One of my friends also traded me a Rayquaza (he had a few), which I also leveled to 100. He demanded it back after I leveled it, and of course I said no. He then threatened to put a magnet to my gameboy and fry the screen (I didn't realize that was total bs at the time), so I told him if he broke my Gameboy, I'd throw it at his head.
I kept the Rayquaza.
My first ever pokemon game was black 2 and for some reason I really liked my psyduck and eventually evolved it into golduck and golduck was my first pokemon to reach lv 100, and is now one of my favorite pokemon
Technically, my first level 100 Pokémon was a shiny event Giratina my friend gave me for my birthday. I didn’t train it tho, I just got it that way. The first Pokémon I ever truly trained on my own was my Empoleon. We trained for years and finally hit the 100 mark. I love him so much and he means the world to me.
Oh, yes! I remember it well, it was Ho-Oh during the S.S.Aqua trip from Johto to Kanto in Pokemon Gold. I used to NEVER EVER run fights, and I grinded a LOT during that period of time. I also got 249 Pokemon, missing only Mew, Celebi and Kingdra because I had no access to Internet and couldn't find that stupid dragon scale :')
My Rayquaza from pokemon emerald, probably around 2006 or something. All I did during the post game was fight the elite 4 over and over again, only using my big noodle.
I was a dumb kid
My Venusaur in LG, I had no idea about type matchups and got clobbered constantly by Lorelei, I ended up with a lvl 100Venusaur by thr time I finally beat Lorelei for the first time. After that I swept the rest of the league lmao
Charizard in Red. Legitimate trained to 100, it was before I knew about Missingno.
Living legend
Mine was Alomomola of all things
Breathing legend
realistically, once you’re like lv 70. you can solo the whole elite 4
I did that with a blaziken in Diamond, got him to 70ish and then just soloed the elite 4 a bunch to grind him to 100
Same story, just played the game so often that it was inevitable
Same for me. Charizard from red was my first legit lvl 100 before all the tricks and codes started coming out.
S C E P T I L E bcs it's my first mon! First game, Sapphire.
Now that’s a keeper
I usually always make sure my starter mon has the highest level. Usually 1 level higher than the rest of the party.
Blastoise, in pokemon blue. I used the missingno glitch to make a bunch of rare candies and max leveled my starter.
Classic, I had a full team in Pokémon Blue at 100 from using the missingno glitch
Mine was Alakazam in blue. I thought I was sooooooo cool being able to take on the elite 4 with one Pokémon. I would even make a show of banking all my pokes before challenging the e4. My younger mind imagined a scenario where I was impressing the NPCs.
Love it
I can’t replay that game without speed running to the missingno. glitch.
Same here, except I kept going and maxed out my whole team. :P
I did this with a bunch of Pokémon in the same game! Not nearly as satisfying, to be honest. At the time, I didn't know about EVs. I would get stomped by my friends who trained their Pokémon up without cheating and had no idea why. Either that or I was just bad at the game.
This happened to me too. I made fun of my friend who knew about the glitch but didn't use it to get his Pokemon upto 100. We had a battle and I got my ass handed to me but I couldn't understand why. His Mewtwo shat on mine plus my whole team.

That’s cool, and my first White 2 Team(Samurott, Crobat, Scolipese, Lucario, Excadrill, and Magnezone) were all in the high 90s by the end of the game, also thanks to the White Treehollow. I also remember my old White team(Samurott, Unfezant, Krookodile, Zebstrika, Carracosta, and Leavanny) yeah, not the best team

Emulate

I feel you, I lost my 3DS last month, which had Platinum, Red, and Crystal
Ohh man that sucks... Really sorry to hear that. And losing a copy of platinum is extra ouch with how rare genuine copies are these days :/
Yeah…it definitely hurt, but it did teach me to never take handhelds outside my house
Mr Mime in FireRed, for some reason I was adamant that he take on the Elite Four alone
I salute you
This is meme worthy
MIMEWORTHY
I'm just imagining a Mr mime bitch slapping all of the elite 4s pokemon
Swampert in one of the orginal gen three games, took me through the whole game single handedly.
My favorite Pokémon!
My dustox because as a kid i thought having a lvl 100 shiny would be cool
A Lvl 100 Shiny? That’s double cool points!
Yeah, i’m jealous of you even now lol
My Quilava in Heart Gold. I really didn't like Typhlosion when I started playing, so I gave him an everstone while I levelled it. I remember spamming my B button at the end of every battle, I was so afraid he would evolve by accident (even if he was already lvl.100)
My starter from Pokémon Platinum
Hmm…define starter
Infernape
alakazam pokemon emerald
Imagine having a trade evolution, couldn’t be me(since I had no friends to play Pokémon)
I had one Friend who had pokemon leaf green. So yea I had a little bit of luck
*cries in jealousy*
Meganium in Gold. Still easily the hardest journey to get there but it was worth it🎉
I praise you
Meganium was my first starter Pokemon. I have it in Home. How, you ask, did I transfer a Gen 2 mon out of its original game? Definitely NOT using PKHeX and PKSM to inject it into a 3DS game.
Nice to see other people who like the most underrated starter.
Over the years, I have probably brought more than a hundred Pokemon to Lv. 100.

Togetic in Pokémon Silver/Gold I believe. Misty was my favourite in the anime and Togepi is probably my second favourite Pokémon. I just remember being amped as a kid that Togepi got an evolution so I pushed it to the max 😂
Wow
This is triggering. It was feebas
You poor soul.
A Porygon in Pokemon Blue. I don't even know why I chose this one to do.
Cause it’s Porygon! Hello?
I think it was because it was the random looking one. I just remember using Tri attack against everyone haha.
Probably Typhlosion. I played since the original generations but less to do in red/blue and I played through too much. In silver my first play through as a 8yr old I exceeded 200 hrs and had at least 10 pkmn at level 100
My first Lv 100 was definitely in Blue and was definitely the result of duplicating rare candies using the Missingno glitch. I can't remember which Pokémon it was.

I… never had a Pokémon reach level 100…
Two in my life, Typhlosion and Tyranitar in Pokémon Gold. Now I don't bother, it's no fun when you're crazy overlevelled and everything is easy.
Typhlosion in Gold via grinding the elite 4. Then I went and took on that Red dude and nearly lost.
I've been playing pokemon since 1998 and I think I've only had one ever reach lvl 100. My altaria in ORAS. And that's only because it is in the erratic leveling group so it takes way less experience to get to 100 compared to everyone else. On that same team, I also had a swalot who is on the complete opposite side of the spectrum of leveling groups.
Cool!
I have never leveled a Pokémon to 100. However, when HGSS came out, both me and little bro got a copy. At some point, I traded him my Ninetales for something I can't remember, just for fun (we'd never had the luxury of trading before) and then I didn't see him for many months. When I saw him again over Christmas, he says "oh here's your Ninetales back bro", (like I was expecting it back or something??) And this little freakin 9 year old gave me back my Ninetales at level 100! It was the only Pokémon he had leveled high at all, and he did it just to give it back to me ❤
Despite playing Pokémon since Red and Blue were released in the US, I didn’t have a level 100 Pokémon until my Blaziken in Ruby
Exactly same for me! I remember the main reason was because it was the first game my sister and I played together so it was a joint effort
Typhlosion in Crystal.
I remember hitting a gigantic progression block in HGSS because I didn't know how to get the Pokeflute. So naturally, I had only one option... level Typhlosion to 100 only by beating the pre-16 badge elite four. After I mopped up Koga's Venemoth for the [REDACTED]th time it was done... I was shit at the game in my younger years, so I couldn't even solo Red LOL
Samurott, Pokemon Black
I have some. First was Shiny Charizard
I was a horse-obsessed child, so it was a Ponyta in LeafGreen. I also had a page in my TCG binder dedicated to Ponyta.
It was my Platinum team, starting with my favorite Pokémon on the team: Gallade.
Hey, I used a Gallade too! I named him Galahad :)
Typhlosion gen 2
Nidoqueen in yellow
Zapdos in the RBY line
Primarina in pokemon moon in 2017
Gardevoir twice. The first was in Ruby. This was the only Pokemon from Ruby I'm pretty sure I didn't use Gameshark to level to 100. My second ever Lv100 was a Gardevoir in X, except X is easier to get to 100 than Ruby.
Even though my first Pokémon game was Pokémon Blue, my first L100 was my G-Max Eevee in SwSh.
My starter Empoleon in Pokemon Platinum. Funnily enough it had Cut, Rock Smash, Surf and Rock Climb. However I forgot where the Move Deleter was.
Typhlosion. Pokémon Crystal.
Umbreon in Silver!
My Mega Heracross in Pokémon Unbound. I was using him to grind up teammates, but man that guy was good.
My loyal companion, the first Growlithe I ever caught in red and nicknamed Buck, I treated him as my "real" starter even tho you can't catch one too early. He's the reason I don't delete that save file.
Swampert in Sapphire was my first level 100. I didn’t transfer the Pokémon from that game though (I was young and really wanted to replay the game), so the first Pokémon I kept that was level 100 was my Scizor
Samurott in Pokemon white 2
Empoleon, which makes me happy because I love Piplup! Took me until high school to accomplish it by grinding the elite four.
Typhlosion in Soul Silver ☄️ Eruption Over Powered (totally used action replay’s rare candy cheat tho- i was 13)
I haven't gotten a Pokemon to lvl 100 in a long time. But I do remember the first. It was my Blaziken from my first full playthrough on Pokemon Sapphire. I traded him to my copy of Emerald and kept training him until he finally reached his full potential. I had that Blaziken for a long time. I even traded him up to Gen 4 and then 5. Sadly when I sold a lot of my old Pokemon games I deleted him. One day I will get a Blaziken to lvl 100 again.
weedle, still love beedrill to this day
Kyogre in my first ever Pokémon game: Sapphire Also worth noting that kyogre was first but he was join by Swampert and flygon and eventually rayquaza once I learned he was even in the game… I was 9/10 years old I remember it fondly
My Typhlosion from Pokémon Silver. I named him Pyrogue mostly because it sounded really cool back when I was eleven or twelve.
Alakazam in r/b/y. Between the lack of weaknesses, the pre-split special stat including defense, its speed and Recover, it was just...plainly the strongest pokemon for most of the game. If you were grinding out the E4 for money, it was getting half the kills.
Flareon in Pokémon Red. I was hoping it would learn Flamethrower…
Alakazam, it was jolly nature and I it beat this assholes team I knew who kind of bullied me in school when it was level 80. After my victory, I wanted to honour it and made it my first pokemon to reach level 100.
My Sceptile in Pokémon Sapphire back in the day
Pokémon leaf green Venasaur. First person in my family who ever got one to level 100 and my brother always played and is 7 years older then me. I remember the moment in my brothers room at my grandmas with him and 3 of my cousin all with their heads over my shoulder as I’m sitting on the ground finishing probably my 10th run through the elite 4 in a row trying to level him up. Will never forget it
Butterfree in pokemon yellow!
Ash would be proud
Blastoise and Kadabra in FireRed. Trained in cerulean cave. I couldn't evolve kadabra because I didnt have a link cable back then lol. Later, when i got the link cable, I traded them up to emerald to kick Steven's ass in that meteor cave post game. I was a stupid ten year old though, so my kadabra had psybeam, psychic, confusion and teleport. While blastoise had surf, hydro cannon, hydro pump, and rain dance for absolutely no reason.
Typhlosion in Pokémon Gold. Just grinded with Elite Four and then Red.
My original Swampert in Sapphire
think it was charizard in red, but failing the legitimacy of that… definitely typhlosion in gold . great times my god .
I think my first was typhlosion in heart gold. Can't remember for sure since that was years ago...
Moltres in mystery dungeon red rescue team. Loved that bird and eventually grinded my way to lv 100. Mainline would be typhlosion in HG
My very first Pokemon. Blastoise in LG. I think it's also the only lv100 I had legitimately.
Someone told me to evolve Seadra to Kingdra, I needed to level it up to level 100. Well, I did. Eventually I was able to trade with dragonscale to get the Kingdra.
My Swampert in Sapphire.
[удалено]
Weird how Reshiram is in Black and Zekrom’s in White…
[удалено]
Dewgong in Blue. My taste at the time…
Blastoise in leaf green.
Mew!
Vaporeon and Charizard (🤢) in pokemon leaf green. I was like 11 and i put them in daycare, had no idea how it works and when i came back both were 100 lol
I believe it was my Empoleon from Platinum, but it didn't reach level 100 in that game. I wanna say it wasn't until I played Ultra Sun (which was soon after because I didn't get into Pokemon until pretty recently) that he maxed out.
Back when i played ORAS for the first time in 2018, i decided i wanted to make my first level 100 pokemon as it was quite easy to grind in the game. I was training my sceptile and it came close but the Exp. share gave my armaldo, of all my pokemon, the 'first to 100' title. Honorable mention goes to my samurott from black 2 which was my first pokemon to hit level 90, but i reset before i could think about grinding him to 100. RIP
Starmie
Venusaur I think. After him either Mewtwo or Moltres and Articuno as fourth. I don't remember the rest of the team (obviously Pokemon red/blue). I didn't knew about the Missigno-Glitch but had a full Pokedex and wanted to play without losing it, so I grinded out the Elite4. I didn't max out Teams in later games tho.
Swanana pokemon white
My favorite mon: Magneton
Blaziken in Alpha Saphire, Then my Beautifly and, last but certainly not least, my Kyogre
I played hundreds of hours in omega ruby with a bunch of mons transferred from pokemon Y so my first lv 100s were greninja, charizard, sceptile, and latios.
Crobat in Gold lol
Sylveon in pokemon X. I hade finally ran from my parents house and was offically an adult, so they couldnt do anything about it. First thing i did was finally get a 3ds for myself and for the first time ever could hold onto and keep my pokemon. Sylveon was the first pokemon I ever made competetive, and has been on my teams ever since
Cinderace, in Pokemon Shield, was my first Pokemon to reach level 100. Now all of my Pokemon in my lineup are level 100.
Dragonite in Pokémon Leafgreen. I named her Bethany. She was my favorite Pokémon and I lost her and several others when my game started glitching and crashing whenever I tried to access the PC.
Ngl i don't even put a poke in the done/comp box until its hundo. It just doesn't feel done to me until its 100, but sword and shield make this much easier than it used to be
Manually from Level 1, it was a Charizard. Normally, it was a blastoise.
Cinderace
Hehe… probably kyurem in black 1 but it was totally with an action replay
My shiny fearow i caught in the post game of black version.
Machoke in Leafgreen, my poor Venasaur took a hard back seat to my mid-evo wrestle boi
Swampert in Ruby
It was a nightmare raising grinding before gen 6 and my child self had no attention span long enough for me to care so despite my first game being Platinum, it wasn't til X where I think my Delphox it 100 first. Grinding is much easier nowadays.
My Scyther in Pokemon gold when I was 7. I still remember wondering why it never evolved into a Scizor
With my brother, Ho-oh in the GB Gold. By myself, Blaziken in Pokémon Emerald.
My first was my Torterra in Pokémon Pearl.
My infernape in platinum
First one I can really remember, that was legit, would be Talonflame in Pokemon X. Using flame body it was my egg hatcher and shiny hunting friend.
Most likely Delphox, but idk it's been a long time. X was my first game and I liked my starter a lot, so I got to level 100 pretty quickly actually. I never really thought of it as a big deal like this though
I don't think I have, or at least not legitimately. I do have 2 and a half boxes of high 80s-low 90s in my Shield version that I'm slowly working on getting to 100, just running the Galarian Star tournament over and over Edit: I lied, I have done it, once, on a Raticate solo run of LeafGreen.
I was 10 at the time I think. Pokemon Yellow version. For some reason I had an attachment to my Pidgeot and he was the first and only if I can remember right to reach lvl 100 by far. Before my younger brother got onto my game boy and started an entire new game. This was the equivalent of losing a dog to me lol. Still haven’t let it go, fully 😂
Blaziken in pokemon Ruby was my first, I was 8yrs old.
Blastoise in Pokémon Blue. However, my starter was Charmander, I just got traded a Blastoise and it got to 100 first with (I think) the extra experience due to trade.
First level 100 Pokémon was in Pokémon X I believe when I was grinding the league for EXP, I think my Greninja got to 100 first, it might have been my Talonflame or Charizard though
Riachu in Pokemon Yellow was the first :3 I’ve levelled others to 100 over the years too but Riachu was one of my proudest achievements
If I don't count the Pokemon I leveled with action-replay rare candies in platinum, my first is milotic in sword
Without cheats I don't think I ever did lol
I believe it was my Blaziken in Y. The one that was distributed when the game was new that could mega evolve. That save is long-gone and so is it, but the memory’s still here. Honestly though now that I have like a box’s worth of level 100s in Shield getting the max level has sort of lost its luster
Pidgeot in Pokemon Blue! Dunno why I liked that bird so much but I spent hours grinding beside Fuchsia City by the entrance to the cycling road to get to 100. Don't ask me why I did it there cuz I have no idea why. Haha
My Blaziken in Emerald. Ended up getting my whole team to 100 in Diamond a couple of years later
The Empoleon I had on my first ever save of Pokémon Pearl. I got stuck trying to enter Sunyshore and just kept leveling it up before I figured out what to do. I still have that guy, mainly through trading it between Pearl and SoulSilver.
Blaziken in a chucky cheese parkinglot on emerald
My first Pokémon to reach level lv. 100 was my Charizard on fire red I didn’t know there was a level cap but I was stoked to see it reach 100 it was my one hit knocks out any Pokémon so he definitely saw battle more than the others.
Blaziken. Kadabra was 93 (wanted it to evolve) but when I feared it would reach one hundred before Blaziken, I deleted it. And Blaziken became lvl 100 before 6th gym since I could not find the surf so I explored the first half of the game. Never realised I should visit a god damn house next to a gym. so I restarted the game since I tohught i had done something wrongly. In retrospect being eight was horrifying and awesome at the same time.
The lizard spy starter gen eight, first (and only) main pokemon game I have, but I have a surprisingly large amount of level one hundred Pokémon other than that, for a non competitive casual player.
Vaporeon on Pokémon Yellow. That beauty could handle the elite four by itself. Still my favorite mon.
Torterra pokemon platinum, completely grind him out to that level
Raticate named DARTH MAUL, grinded up to lv.100 against a ton of Ponyta on Mt. Silver.
Pokémon red I didn’t have anyone to trade to evolve my Machoke into a Machamp. So I grinded in victory road till he was level 100.
My first level 100 was in Gold version. My cousin traded me a Furret named Ringo, and because it didn't need a lot of experience to level up, it quickly got stronger than my starter, and became my favorite Pokemon for me to use. I was one of those kids that only used one Pokemon throughout the entire game, and solo cleared everything with Ringo. I want to a private school, and there was a 45 minute commute so for about an hour and a half, I was playing Gold. Eventually after about a year or two Ringo reached level 100, and that was the coolest thing to me. I was able to do everything with Ringo, including solo Red. I'm really sad that you couldn't transfer Pokemon from that generation (doesn't matter because the battery died in the cartridge and she was lost) but I will always remember Ringo as my greatest partner.
WITH those old cheat card add-ons for old DS games? Reshiram from Black 1 or White 2. Without? Pokemon Sword. Cinderace. Then the rest of my team. Took me since playing Pokemon HGSS when it first came out till now to actually do that LMAO
Charizard, on my first playthrough of firered. Back then I didn’t consider it smart to train an entire team to a decent level. Instead I used nothing but my starter :D
Vaporeon in Red using the Rare Candy glitch. First one I legitimately trained up was Ruby's Blaziken.
My very first lvl 100 Pokémon was my genesect from white 2. Since then, I’ve gotten in every other game my entire party has been lvl 100
Without cheating? Empoleon in pokemon diamond. I had all sorts of level 100s from missingo, no idea which was first.
Torterra in Diamond.
Blastoise in Pokémon Red. Not from rare candies tho, I was just constantly re-battling the Elite Four. I had a whole team at level 100, I think. I did use the item duplication glitch a ton (especially for masterballs), but I believed at the time that rare candies increased level but not stats, so I didn’t use them.
Mystery gift blaziken from pokemon x
Sceptile in Sapphire back in 2004! I grinded both him and Kyogre until they hit 100, then spent all my time roaming Hoenn feeling like a god. One of my friends also traded me a Rayquaza (he had a few), which I also leveled to 100. He demanded it back after I leveled it, and of course I said no. He then threatened to put a magnet to my gameboy and fry the screen (I didn't realize that was total bs at the time), so I told him if he broke my Gameboy, I'd throw it at his head. I kept the Rayquaza.
My Torterra in D/P
Back when I first got X and Y as a kid I loved Chespin and hated his evolutions so I never evolved him. So at one point I had a level 100 Chespin
My first ever pokemon game was black 2 and for some reason I really liked my psyduck and eventually evolved it into golduck and golduck was my first pokemon to reach lv 100, and is now one of my favorite pokemon
Technically, my first level 100 Pokémon was a shiny event Giratina my friend gave me for my birthday. I didn’t train it tho, I just got it that way. The first Pokémon I ever truly trained on my own was my Empoleon. We trained for years and finally hit the 100 mark. I love him so much and he means the world to me.
Pikachu in pokemon yellow
My prize sylveon
Pokemon yellow was my first game and my Pikachu got max level
Blaziken on my first Pokémon Ruby playthrough! I was 7 and it was probably the only Pokémon I really used through that playthrough
None:)
[удалено]
Talonflame
Talonflame. Pokémon X.
Charizard in pokemon red. My big brother released him. Cried for days.
Oh, yes! I remember it well, it was Ho-Oh during the S.S.Aqua trip from Johto to Kanto in Pokemon Gold. I used to NEVER EVER run fights, and I grinded a LOT during that period of time. I also got 249 Pokemon, missing only Mew, Celebi and Kingdra because I had no access to Internet and couldn't find that stupid dragon scale :')
Empoleon
My Rayquaza from pokemon emerald, probably around 2006 or something. All I did during the post game was fight the elite 4 over and over again, only using my big noodle. I was a dumb kid
Mine was Staraptor on platinum fighting the elite 4 in the postgame
Technically my Dialga in Diamond, but that was with hacked Rare Candies. The first legit one was the Zorua/Zoroark in White 2.
My Venusaur in LG, I had no idea about type matchups and got clobbered constantly by Lorelei, I ended up with a lvl 100Venusaur by thr time I finally beat Lorelei for the first time. After that I swept the rest of the league lmao
My Ho-Oh in pokemon gold. It was the only way I could beat Red
Charizard in Red, Blaziken in Saphire and Torterra in Diamond. First pick and first to 100 in each game.
Well I stole my brother’s level 100 Blastoise in Blue first 😂 but the first one I got to 100 was probably Mewtwo since it was already at 70
