When was your Pokemon era?


COSMIC GIRL

Recommended Posts

Most people have played at least one Pokemon game in their life and have maybe even been partially obsessed with the popular Japanese video game franchise at some point. What time of your life was your Pokemon era if you ever had one?

 

Mine was around, I think, 2nd or 3rd grade when I got a Wal Mart gift card for my birthday and decided to spend the money on the Gameboy version of Pokemon Sapphire. I sucked really badly at it but I still liked it enough to buy Pearl for my DS when I got one of those, but that was pretty much the last time I've ever had an experience with Pokemon.

I was all about Pokemon Yellow when it was out; nonstop playing once my dad got me a Game Boy Color. And I really liked the Gold/Silver/Crystal era. I got the Gold version.

 

The latest ones I've played are Soul Silver and Black/Black 2 since those are the ones my brother got.

 

EDIT: I still play games on and off. I'm playing Fire Red on an emulator right now.

In elementary school, maybe 2nd/3rd-4th grade or so, I used to watch the show, and I had a lot of Pokemon cards. My brother and I would battle against each other sometimes. We also had a Pokemon game on Gameboy or Gameboy color? Maybe both. I also remember buying a book from the book fair at school that had descriptions and pictures of all of the Pokemon in it. Well, even now I have Pokemon Alpha Sapphire for my 3DS , but I haven't watched the show or had the cards for a long time now.

I think I was in like 3rd or 4th grade when Red/Blue came out in North America (1998). Everyone was into Pokemon at that time. So much that our school banned gameboys and the cards. I was really into Gold/Silver as well. I still like Pokemon but not enough to buy the latest DS just to play the newer ones. I don't watch the anime anymore either. I still have my cards sitting in the attic somewhere. Including my holographic Charizard that I was so proud of as a kid.

I was able to pay Red/Blue (can't remember which) and got crazy into the franchise but my parents weren't willing to buy a second gameboy and thus I was unable to beat the game.

 

After a year or two of that, I basically fell out of the whole game (except an occasionally episode of the anime).

 

I played Crystal a few months after i graduated HS, nearly beat it, but I messed up a cheat and was unable to trade with other version out at the time.

 

I played R/S/E/FR/LG in late 2010 but didn't beat any of them for reasons I can't remember.

 

I bought X/Y & OR/AS late last year and will be playing them this year sometime.

 

 

 

 

TL:DR: my era would have been the first.

I watched the anime and movies when I was a kid, way back in the beginning. I don't remember for how long though.
I also had Stadium, Stadium 2, and Snap on the N64. So I'm thinking early 2000s.

 

 

I didn't really get into Pokemon until I got XD: Gale of Darkness for the Gamecube in 2006.

Then I started watching the anime again during the Advance or Advance: Battle season, whichever one was airing in 2006.

Never had any of the handheld games cuz I didn't own a GameBoy/Advance, DS, etc. But I played the games that are/were available on playr.org like 4-5 years ago.

I watched the anime until 2011 I think. Got tired of seeing the same shit over and over.

 

I've played Black and Black 2 on emulator, and am currently playing Omicron, which is a fanmade game.

 

I want another game like Colosseum and XD though.
