[Icebreaker] What's the Pokémon that started it all for you?
We've had quite a few new faces around lately, so I figured this would be a fun one.
Forget your favorite for a second. What's the Pokémon you remember first? I'd love to hear everyone's "origin story" Pokémon, and why you think you remember them so vividly. First one you caught? First card you owned? Something else entirely?

Sadly Pikachu
I got it as a MvDonald's toy with a cards (don't remember the Pokémon on the card)
Anyways, it was a toy you could roll around and there was clear yellow plastic that represented electricity that would light up when going fast enough
I didn't know it was named "Pikachu" and thought the name of the creature was "Pokémon"
So me and my cousin would roll it down a slide yelling "POKÉMON, GO!!!"
...
Yeah, that's what started my obsession a decade ago
