Back into the Poke craze after 20 years!!!!
Hey there. As the title suggests, I have been away from Pokémon for 20 years or so. I was big into it when the original Red and Blue came out back in ‘96 but I dropped off when Gold and Silver came out. Now, two decades later I saw the trailer for a Detective Pikachu movie and sparked my love for Pokémon all over again.
Now I’m going through the games that I missed, which is a lot. I just recently started up Fire Red and have Crystal Dust ready to go after that. I kind of regret missing out on it al lthese years but I am eager to catch up. :) Also, as my name implies my favourite Pokémon is Slowpoke. |
Yaaaassssss
another lover of the Slowpoke :D Hi, welcome and hope you enjoy your stay at PC. |
Greetings and welcome to The PC!
I do hope you enjoy your stay and get the chance to meet a lot of neat people. |
Hi Mr. Slowpoke! It’s always nice to get in new members who remember the ol’ original games from their childhood. Glad you decided to get back into Pokémon and join us! :)
Please feel free to ask any questions if you have any! |

Thanks to all for the welcome. :) |
I saw your username and just had to say hello. Slowpoke is awesome. I've always hoped to see more fans of it! Welcome to Pokecommunity, wow twenty years away is a long time...but Detective Pikachu looks great, so it's cool that it pulled you back in. Enjoy your time here!

Hello there! I am also returning to Pokemon after dropping off around the same point (I only recently figured out it is known as red and blue). I never really "fanned out" like most people so I moved onto other fandoms continuously rather than know everything i could about one or two (my memory sucks) so no matter which community I join, I always feel like the baby who is just learning, even if I watched the originals as they came out! Makes it hard to really join in with an active established community sometimes, but here I am again!
Anywho... Just wanted to say hey to a fellow older fan who may know a little less like me about where the fandom went :) |
