Oh gosh ;__; you're so much more experienced than I am! I'm actually kind of new to the whole scene. It's kind of a long story, but to put it short my parents used to be hardcore Christians so I wasnt really allowed to play or watch it back when it first came out. I'm making up for it now though C:. I have Soul Silver, and I have played a bit of Emerald. I haven't completed either yet but about half way done Soul Silver :D. Pokemon is wonderful.
