I play the games, watch the anime and read the manga. The only thing I don't keep up with is the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The games were what introduced me into Pokémon and I've found them fun through the years. The anime was very enjoyable, in my opinion, and I liked keeping up with it. I think - unlike most Pokémon fans - I like watching the characters in the Pokémon series. Ash, Brock and the rest always kept me entertained and I see no reason to drop it. The manga was a new fandom for me, but I really have enjoyed PokéSpecial, especially the journey through Kanto.
I guess I'm just a big ol' Pokénerd!
