4th Gen Any other adult players on here?

Twenty one in December. I've had every generation so far. Green, my brother owned, don't know where he got it. Then I obtained Blue. I had what was likely not an official Nintendo product, Gold and Silver 2in1. Again, this was my brothers. I purchased both Ruby and Sapphire. I preffered the latter. I got both Diamond and Pearl, preffering Diamond. Then Platinum. And now I await the European release of HeartGold and SoulSilver. I have very fond memories of Johto.
 
I'm turning 23 in May and I bought both Platinum and HeartGold in the past few months. I was away from the series for a while but it would appear I'm addicted again.
 
24 in June, and still playing. I plan on playing as long as they make the games, and will probably still play the old ones, even when they aren't. I have a 3 & 4 year old (both boys), and I think I may have gotten them hooked to at least the show, for now. Most people read books before they go to bed, but I play Pokémon (which, on occasion, found myself waking up in the middle of the night to save and shut off my DSi because I fell asleep playing, lol).

Aah! That's what my day is like, almost exactly! (Creepy, ne? ^.^)

My daughter just turned 5 on Sunday, and she already knows Pikachu, Pichu, Lickylicky and Lucario, mostly from My Pokemon Ranch. It's a shame I can't get her to pickup on things more easily other than stuff she sees on the TV...she's autistic so even those 4 are a big thing.

Whoa wait a minute...the DS can die? That just scared me.

Sad, but true. All awesome things must come to an end. Like my Red cart with Mew in it.

*cries*

Do you suppose the game itself is easier to play when you're older, or is it just because most of us have all been playing since day 1? (And why are there no poke-pride marches yet?! lol...)
 
Well I think its because of the way there making pokemon games, this is what I say about it
"Pokemon games, Easy enough for a child to play, But complicated enough to keep an Adult busy" :P

I find this to be very true. I'm just as entertained with playing Pokemon now as I was when I was eight years old, and I still find things to challenge me while I'm playing. The game was extremely challenging back then (especially because I didn't even know what a strategy guide was back then and I had to find my own way through all the caves), but I was still able to make my way through it after trial, error, and learning. I think all the puzzle solving I had to do in Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow kept my mind far busier as a child than anything on TV did. ^_^ And although it did get easier to play and understand the strategy of it as an adult, I still find it as entertaining and challenging as I did then.
 
My parents play Pokemon.

...as do all the creators of the game. nyah. :P
 
i turn 27 this Saturday i have played all the poke games. i got my wife hooked with emerald
 
I'm 22, been around since Red and Blue and I don't plan on stopping any time soon, so expect to see me around here for a while. :D
 
Man, I feel the youngest here. 15 and half, 18 days to turn 16 (April 13, don't forget March has 31 days)
And I too being playing from R/B/Y (Sorta), I got my Yellow, never bothered to get R/B, I finished Yellow. It wasn't that tuff considering Dugtrio overpowered the entire game. Finished 1 game of each gen.
 
Wow, im scared now...
Ill just go and umm. bye
 
I think I'm the oldest so far...

I guess I'm pretty "adult". Will be 40 in December. Ive been playing pokemon since Ive purchased the old Gameboy Advance system in the mid- 90's. I dont think you can ever be to old to play this game. Its fun and challenging. I also get to bond with my 7 y/o daughter who has the H/G version while I have the S/S version. I also walk with the pokewalker :), even at work. Guess I'm just a kid at heart. As long as you have fun, its all good!!!
 
I'm twenty and I still play although Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum weren't as fun for me. HG has restored my faith since I played the original one when I was little :).
 
I'm almost 20. Still a fan xD I'm even more of a fan than I used to be when I was a kid and played pokemon. Probably because now I understand more and I see that there is a lot more in these games than you think at the first place.
 
21 here~
Intense love of nearly everything Pokemon also here~
