3rd Gen How old were you

Wow. I was six when they came out. However, I don't remember if I bought them as the came out or a little bit later. I think Emerald had already come out by then, so I was a little older by the time I got Sapphire and Emerald.
 
10 or 11 I played Ruby 1st because I was helping a friend with his game. He hated grinding and level up his Pokemon. So I did it for him. I played Sapphire & Emerald emulators. The only 3rd Gen game I owned was Fire Red if you count that one.
 
In 2003, I would have been 7 years old. I remember naming my first Sapphire team after Muppets.
 
I was 12 at the time when Ruby/Sapphire came out. I had the feeling that the move to Game Boy Advance would be better. And, indeed it was, and Ruby/Sapphire still remains my favorite games of the series.
 
I was 8 when I heard the news and 9 when I played. I eventually got all the Hoenn games, but my first was Sapphire.

I remember all the rumors and speculation at school before the games came out.

"I hear your Pokemon can follow you in certain places."
"Yeah? Well I heard that the game has tornadoes in it and you have to outrun the storm."
"How cool is that? I can't wait!"
 
I was 15 or something when i first played Pokemon. Maybe 13 to 15. ahh yes between these years i used to play Pokemon games sooo much. Its was my drug and addiction.
 
I was around 11 years old when Ruby and Sapphire came out. They became my pure obsession the moment I got them.
 
I was 7 when I first saw the screenshots, 8 when I got Ruby. :)
 
I was in 3rd grade when Pokemon first came out. That would make me 7 or 8. All of my friends would play pokemon at recess and trade and battle. I think that is when I started hating pvp pokemon. The original kinda sucked that way
 
I think I was 13 when me and my brother bought Ruby and a GBA together. I nagged the save file for ages, while he was stuck with playing Yellow. What can I say, I was the oldest and strongest >:)
 
I was playing Ruby in elementary school, so I know I was under 13. I remember sitting on the bus playing every day and I recall beating the Elite 4 for the first time whilst sitting on the bus heading to school. I logged countless hours on that cartridge. I still recall the time I beat the Elite 4 with just Blaziken lvl 100...good times good times.
 
I was 13 when i first discovered pkmn. That is FR/LG and i liked its warm gameplay and music that other games in GBA such as FinalFantasy or Legend of zelda. Moreover pokemon just don't die when losing a battle.
 
I was only a wee little lad (XD Scottish impression?). I was 11 when I got this game and I loved it sooo much. Still have it after all these years! It's the second oldest cartridge I have. Second to Fire Emblem.
 
I was 10 years old when I first saw the commercial for Pokemon Ruby. I wanted it so bad but I had to wait until November to purchase my Gameboy Advance and Ruby.
 
I was 9 when I first procured my copy of Leaf Green. Found it buried in the playground gravel, best believe I didn't tell anyone. Didn't have enough money at the time to shell out $30 for it, so I figure I got pretty lucky.

And then I got Emerald when I was like 13 or something at a local pawn shop for $5, guys said it's internal battery went out, so I visited my local grocery store and found a battery that fitted it perfectly.
 
I was 6 when my cousin introduced the pokemon red to me. After that, i start collecting gba games until 10. On my 11th birthday, my father gave me a ds and start playing pokemon diamond..after that, i start collecting all the game devices....my collections are almost complete..haha~
 
I was about 9 or 10 I think, when I first heard the beckoning call of pokemon red/blue. such a long time ago looking back at it. I've had many fond memories of the golden days when pokemon made even less sense than it does now. If I remember right, I heard about Gold and Silver when I was first getting into highschool. If you can't tell, I LITERALLY grew up with pokemon :3

Years have gone by, and due to increased cost of living, I don't have anything better than a GBA and the VBA emulator to play with friends that live a long distance from me (yay hamachi xD) anyways, I was just a child when pokemon first moved into my area and I'll probably keep playing til I get old and develop amnesia or something like that lol
