I have been into pokemon since it came out, then after i beat silver and gold,
i quit. It just got bored after a while. But when D/P came out, i was at first
not sure if i should get it, but after seeing friends play against eachother
via wifi, i wanted to play so i got it. I mainly only play to compete against others
and dominate ^.^

I got into Pokémon by watching it on Sky One back in 1997 I think. Then the games came out over here and I've been playing adamantly every since. Although I do have occasional long breaks.

Been playing around 10 years now.

Started with Pokemon Stadium back in 2000, after that I bought every single pokemon game I could get but never like the TCG.

I've been into pokemon casually since gold and silver
But I only started playing competetively in D&P after I saw this site because I was interested in ROM hacking

I started loving Pokemon when I was eight years old... I'm glad I never really stopped liking it. ^^
I never got addicted to the games until SIlver and Gold though, I couldn't get my hands on Red&Blue because it was so popular then and all the games were always sold out.

Back when Red and Blue had first come out, I remembered seeing the commercials where the guy is trying to get all the Pokémon into the bus, wondering what I was watching...

Then one of the kids down the street got Red version, and I played it for a bit, got addicted, then.. well.. I stole it from him a few days after because I was so addicted.

Funny, I got into Pokémon by stealing it.

That was a few weeks after it had first come out.

I got silver 3 days before street date, impressed all of my friends with it... Red was awesome, it's what got me addicted, but Silver was definitely my favorite game.

I've been into Pokemon since I was about 8, I used to ALWAYS watch the anime, but never got any of the games, due to not having a Game Boy. :( I quit for a while, but I've been REALLY into the games over the past 2/3 years after finding a Emerald ROM off some website I cant remember. Now, I also have Diamond, Ruby and MD Red. :)

I've been into Pokemon for a long long time, since it came out I think, I was a little kid back then. xD

I remember being all hyper when the series got announced, It was good at first but... well now it just sucks. However, I think I will die before I stop liking Pokemon, it's just a great game.

Played red and blue on the GBC, didn't really have anyone to trade with and only had one GBC so after beating everything I could beat I kinda lost interest. About a month ago I thought "Hey, I need a new game for my GBA" and bought emerald....then collosseum and fire red....then I bought a DS and diamond so i'll probly end up getting BR here shortly if I can find a good deal on it.

Jeez, uh, I've been a fan since, like, '98. I didn't get a game until Silver, though. Been a fan for ten years now.

I've been into pokemon since I got a brand-new Yellow and my lime green gameboy color for my eighth birthday. I then got both Red and Blue for Christmas that year, I got the 2nd generation games for birthdays and christmases too. I took a bit of a break after that though, I didn't have a GBA. But wouldn't you know when the DS came out I was able to buy one on the school bus with Sapphire in it! After playing through that a few times I started longing for the old games, blue was my favorite, and by golly, the same kid who sold me my Sapphire just happened to have a LeafGreen he didn't want, 10 bucks later, it was mine. This was about a month before D/P came out, so I was still pretty into LG when they came out. Then all my friends got D/P on it's release day and I was left with LG. Now I couldn't let that happen, so I gave a buddy who worked at Target $160 bucks and said "Get me a DS Lite and Diamond, and keep the change",(it turned out to be like $0.60). I beat Diamond in the next few days and have pretty much been trying to breed new teams, and get all my Sapphire and LG pokemon over ever since.

I started playing Gold and from there was hooked. I've played every pokemon game for Gameboy since then and have enjoyed every single one.
