Generation I introduced the original 151 Pokémon across Kanto. Pokémon Red and Blue launched in 1996 and defined the franchise. FireRed and LeafGreen (2004) brought the full Kanto experience to Game Boy Advance with updated graphics and additional content. Mewtwo remains one of the most powerful Pokémon ever created, while Charizard is the most recognizable starter evolution in the series.

Challenge Run Tip
FireRed and LeafGreen are the most popular Gen 1 games for Nuzlocke runs — better quality of life than the originals, a fair but punishing difficulty curve, and a familiar Pokédex that makes team-building decisions feel meaningful.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many Pokémon are in Generation 1?
Generation 1 (Kanto) introduced 151 Pokémon, from Bulbasaur (#001) to Mew (#151). This includes 5 legendary Pokémon: Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Mewtwo, and Mew.
What are the best Gen 1 games for challenge runs?
FireRed and LeafGreen are the most popular for Nuzlocke and randomizer runs. They have better mechanics than the original Red/Blue, a wider Pokédex available before the Elite Four, and the most stable RNG for randomization tools.
Which Gen 1 starter is best for a random team?
If you're building a random team, Charmander leads to Charizard — the highest individual stat total of the three. Squirtle (Blastoise) offers strong bulk. Bulbasaur (Venusaur) has the best type coverage in Kanto. All three are viable; use the roulette to let chance decide your team composition.
