I was seven when I first played Red. I've been hooked ever since.

Oh, how i long for those days once more.

I was around four when my cousin was playing his pokemon game with his Game Boy. I asked him to play the game. It turned out to be Pokemon Blue. I got very addicted to the game and its mechanics. I begged my mom to stop to the nearest Wal-Mart to pick up the game and a Game Boy. When she did, I spent the last few hours of the trip playing my Pokemon Blue with my Squirtle.

I was 9 when I first started my Red version.
That got me hooked, I'll still be a fan when the last generation has come and gone. :)

7 or 8. I got Blue for Christmas one year, can't remember if it was 98 or 97, along with the Atomic Purple GBC. Then for my birthday soon after I got Yellow (whichever year that was released, I don't know). I let my cousin borrow Yellow and his dog chewed it up ;_;

I can't remember to be honest. I know it was when I was really young, I got it with the gameboy color. I was probably 6 or 7.

[Alice]

Well... I got blue version with the game boy color pack for Christmas right after it came out... I think that would make me 7, but I'm not totally sure.

Edit: Actually, now that I think about it, my birthday is 3 days before Christmas, so I had probably just turned 8.

 

[Taemin]

I was 9, or 10. Probably 10, because I know that the games didn't release here until the USA until after the show had been airing for awhile.
