'''''According to interviews with Ken Sugimori, Rhydon holds the distinction of being the first Pokémon ever created. This is supported by Red and Green listing it as first in its programming data.''''' I know about its being first in the programming data, but mind giving us/linking to a source that states its being the first 'mon ever created?

:Yeah, i'd like to see that too. Because Mew was created in 1990, right? So was Rhydon before that?

It does bear a resemblance to Baragon... And so does Nidoking! --[[User:Bad Grim|Bad Grim]] 21:24, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
:Unless pop culture is explicitly stated to be an origin by Pokémon, then no. - [[User:050294|050294]] 22:29, 7 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
::Pokemon's origins are rarely "explicitly stated," so if that were our criteria we'd never get any origins at all. A better rule of thumb is "unless pop-culture as the origin is blindingly obvious." Sometimes it is, like with {{p|Wobbuffet}}, but in this case there's just not enough evidence. --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] 00:14, 8 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
:::I agree with you, but [[user:Sketch|Sketch]] says that unless it is explicitly stated it can not be added. That is why {{p|Ulgamoth}} is apparently not based on Mothra and that is just my, and many other user's, opinions. Meh. - [[User:050294|050294]] 23:51, 8 November 2010 (UTC) | |||
Look at the back, it's clearly at least SLIGHTLY based on Godzilla. After all, wouldn't the first Pokémon be? -- [[User:MrSpheal|MrSpheal]] 10:49, 21 January 2015 (UTC) | |||
