no. Pikachu was the first Pokemon to be popular, Bulbasaur was the first to be drawn. Arceus is the first Pokemon to exist in the Pokemon legends but during beta testing, they found that pikachu was much more popular, and in the interest of profits, they changed it.

this is why clefairy has that big long story about being the "moon Pokemon".

Pikachu is commonly mistaken as the first Pokemon to be designed, but it is not the first at all. Rhydon was the first designed Pokemon and programmed in Pokemon Red and Green before the rest of the Pokemon.
