Pokémon Quiz: Test Your Knowledge of Generation 1 Pokémon

Pokemon is one of the most illustrious IPs in the world. It’s right up there with the likes of Marvel/DC, Harry Potter, and Super Mario. It’s also lasted the test of time. Whereas most properties have their fifteen minutes in the sun and fade away, Pikachu and pals have been around for almost thirty years.

And while it’s seen immense growth and evolution (no pun intended), from the primitive days on the Game Boy to the current far reaches of Scarlet and Violet, its always important to remember where it all started.

So, in honor of the game that started it all, we’ve put together the ultimate Pokemon Generation 1 Quiz!

This Pokemon quiz will test your knowledge of the original Pokemon games for the Game Boy, namely Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow.

We’ve also thrown in some pokemon trivia questions relating to the original Pokemon anime TV series, Pokemon: The Original Series, AKA Indigo League.
