Do you keep up with the series?

I have played at least one of each main series game.
I don't actively keep up with releases though, it's usually more me randomly finding a new pokemon game is out at some point and then playing it. Which can easily be months after it's release.
I mainly play pokemon for new pokemon nowadays. Every generation has at least several I like design wise.
 
I'm still big on the games! Typically buy main games when they release, last time I wasn't able to play a new main series on the day it came out was ORAS since I was on vacation with family at the time. Just too attached to the series and can't not play on day one, otherwise I see all my friends chat about it everywhere and I feel left out haha. ;o;
 
i keep up with the games for sure. ever since i was a kid, i always wanted to own each main series title and beat them all. it's not the most ambitious thing in the world really, but it felt like it as a child when i wanted green version aha. i don't stay heavy into new information that's released when there are games on the horizon though, as i like to go in and be mostly blind. but yeah, still going strong w playing the games.
 
I once stopped if I can't enjoy pokemon because of financial problem and/or I can't emulate at the current states, after USSM that's it for me.
 
After about 10 years I got back into the msg in 2013 with Y. I discovered shiny hunting in 2015 on Twitch and after getting my first random shiny in 2016 I started shiny hunting.

I bought Moon in 2016 but never really gained an enjoyment from playing it so it was put away after I got to like the third trial or something.

I bought a Switch and Lets go Eevee and i mostly use lets go now for transferring extra Go shinies. Don't like the catching mechanic at all, or the fact Pokemon can flee and the shiny hunting method is boring.

I plan on getting Arceus at least but most of my time is split between Go and X/Y/OR/AS.

Another issue with the Switch is its not as compact as the 2ds. The lite version even is like the old psp and doesn't fold up which means I only play it at home and I typically don't play video games at home.

if by "series" you mean "games" then yeah, i'm pretty big on the games :o

everything else... not really. i wish i was more into the merch, but i barely have enough space in my room for plushies, and i don't really have much interest in the anime and manga. u_u
 
Yep, at least I try to. I often will check serebii's front page. I mostly watch for news for the main series
 
I used to get core games and spinoffs like mystery dungeon and ranger as a child but it slowly petered out to the last core game I've played being Sun. The remakes look nice but I'll have to see about how invested I'm going to get, otherwise I'll probably just play the DS version again instead.
 
I pretty much keep up with everything Pokemon related except the tcg, lmfao. Don't see myself stopping with keeping up any time soon.
 
I don't go out of my way to keep up, but I have social media feeds so I end up finding things out relatively quickly. I also occasionally go through the articles here on pokecommunity.
