So we begin with Oak himself and the world around us. Then he says his famous line, "Are you a boy or a girl?"

I click on boy and the he asks my name. I type Cobalt and then he introduces my rival. He forgot his name. I named my rival Tyler and we begin the game.

I quickly withdraw a potion from my PC and head down. I head outside and to route 1 when Oak stops me and takes me to his lab.

Then I am faced with a problem, what starter to pick. Squirtle was out of the option since I am going to get a Lapras. The choice was between Bulbasaur and Charmander. I picked Bulbasaur since it would be easier to play through the first 3 gyms with only one Pokemon.

I picked Bulbasaur and named him Saur. After beating Tyler in a battle, I head to Viridian to get Oak's parcel and deliver it to him. Oak gives me and Tyler a pokedex and pokeballs. I immediately sold the pokeballs in Viridian city. After a useless tutorial to catch a Pokemon I head into the Viridian forest.

Have I told you how irritating it is to go through Viridian forest without a Fire or flying type? This time it was even more irritating. Bulbasaur learns Vine Whip as it first damaging move, having 35 power and only 10 PP. I had to go some many times back and forth to viridian to heal him up.

After I reached Pewter, I healed up and challenged Brock. Two Vine Whips later I got the badge.

I then headed to Mount Moon where again on the way were trainers, including 3 bug catchers. After a lot of struggle I was able to beat the trainers and Saur was at level 20. I got through Mt Moon, picking Helix fossil on the way. Praise Lord Helix

Getting out of Mount Moon I healed up and challenged Misty. Again 3 Vine Whips later in had the badge.

Now for the next obstacle, Nugget bridge. What makes it irritating were trainer with bugs, pidgeys and Nidorans.

After a lot of battling I finally reached Bills house. After converting him back to a human he gave me the ticket of SS Anne.

I head back to Cerulean and heal up to see, Saur is at level 24. That's what happens when you use only one Pokemon. I continue to the next gym city Vermillion.

Reaching Vermillion I hop inside SS Anne to get HM cut and other things there like Brick Break, Startdust etc. Of course we had our third rival battle which I was able to win in a clutch. After all things I taught Saur Cut and challenged the third gym, defeating it with ease. 4 razor leaves was all that it took to defeat Surge.

Next I headed to Pewter from Diglett Cave to get the Old Amber, for a future teammate.

I then returned to Vermillion and headed to Cerulean to get a bike. After all that I saved my game.

P.S. i found out that my Saur has evolved to a Venusaur. He was at level 34.

That's it for the first part. See you all in the next one.
