The TRUTH about Arceus and Mew: They were NOT the first Pokemon ever created!

The pokemon created first was a huge mystery but after looking into it, Mew and Arceus. But it looks like game freak didnt make it that easy.

Digglet being made before pokemon was even an idea : I'm parallel universes ahead of you

[Warlord-dcun]

Diglet: First designed.
Rhydon: First made dubbed a pokemon.
Arceus: First pokemon that exist in canon.
Mew: The first pokemon made in canon.
Bulbasaur: First pokemon in the pokedex.

Diglett is just the first pokemon he was literally created 10 years before rhydon

[jack-o-lantern]

The first official, Pokémon was Rydon, but they actually designed the substitute before

[deadringer-cultofdeathratt]

They really said “let’s make a rhino. The kids will love it”

[unknownbasic]

It was Diglett technically. The creator was a kid and made a drawing of Diglett and liked it. It eventually became the mole pokemon

When you can't decide on which definition you want to use so you use them all

"me knowing that the first pokemon is missingno"🗿

[WlfMan]

I would have guessed one of the bug pokemon. The whole series is about collecting and fighting different beetles against each other.

[brnismid]

when i was little my daycare teacher asked what the first pokémon was and i said bulbasaur and she said no it’s pikachu 💀

[djfoxworth]

Some viable answers of first pokemon is Bulbasaur, Rowlet (Legends Arceus), Rhydon, Arceus, Mew, and Diglett(was created in sugimori's middle school years)

[josephperets]

Me an intellectual: Vic tiny is the first Pokémon in the Pokédex being at number 000

[supernoob]

And this is why missingno becomes rhydon if you haven't gotten a cubone

[KawaiiJammy]

we have to remember that the pokedex was made by humans, so the order doesnt really matter

[tingxu]

I love how bulbasaur can compete with Archeus

[Potato-Potahtoh]

My headcanon is that Rhydon was used so much because it was the first pokemon that someone cought with a PokeBall.

[colinakersakers]

“Which Pokémon is first?” Is a surprisingly loaded question with 4 possible answers

[ZneXDthebest]

Lore-wise true-Arceus was first. True-Arceus then made Arceus (the Arceus we see in the games is a branch of true Arceus) then Arceus made the creation trio and lake trio, then mew, then mew evolved into all Pokémon, except for artificial ones and the two trios i mentioned.
Pokédex-wise: rowlet or bulbasaur (rowlet cause it’s the first in the PLA dex, which is allegedly the first dex made) and bulbasaur because it’s the first in the Pokédex of the first game

The true first Pokémon: Rhyhorn. It was the first Pokémon designed.

[Wolfey-xbxu]

Rhydon was the first pokemon designed but Arceus was the first pokemon in the storyline of pokemon
