    when the card first hit america in the mid 1990s i was about ten years old too. i still have most of my cards from back then too.
     
    When I played Pokemon Red in November of 1998 (it was technically my brother's game, but he let me play it 'till I got Blue the following month for Christmas). I was 11 at the time just for comparison of age...
     
    I was... in 3rd grade I believe.

    Someone stole my Gyarados card. T_T
     
    I get glued to pokemon, since i saw the 1st episodes of the anime, and then, my cousin said that he could get me pokemon games in PC with emulators.
     
    I started to like it when I first saw the card game, back in 1998
     
    I started to love it since I saw the first episode when it was aired on TV, I was about 10 or 9 at the time. I started recording every Kanto episode since the 2nd episode and so on. Oddly enough, I still remember that I got my copy of Pokemon Red at the same day the episode "Ash catches a Pokemon" was aired in =P
     
    i liked it when I was 8.It looked cool so I played the games and i liked it.
     
    Well, I have a (fairly) long story about how I became addicted to Pokemon:

    I first heard about it when this guy came into my 5th grade class (I was 11) and did a discussion about violence. He asked, "How many of you watch Pokemon?" and I did not know what Pokemon was. Later, a boy brought in a Pikachu plushie for show-and-tell, and some other kids talked about Pikachu too. Later, in the lunch line, I saw Pokemon cards for the first time. (The first card I saw was Ponyta.) And, in some daycare center later on, I saw my first Pokemon episode: "The Ninja-Poke Showdown". I didn't have a clue what the Pokemon were, though. But, in the summer after fifth grade, I saw Pokemon episodes on TV, the first being "Ash Captures a Pokemon". I watched it everyday and discovered more Pokemon, and I immediately became a fan! (It wasn't until a year later that I finally got Pokemon Yellow, my first Pokemon game, though...)

    I could go into more detail, but that would take too long...

    aww..:( I know the feeling! I've been watching the show since 1997, and now there isn't ONE person around me that still likes it! :'(

    anyway, I got ito it when I was..7? yeah. that'd be it! THen when I moved to u.s. when I was 11 I began collecting the cards and fell in love with the thing! ^_^ And in 1999 was when I really began getting into it though just and only because of my dead mew! ~hugs mew card binder~

    No way! ^_^ :D I thought I was the only one who still kept those things! The fist one I got was the Promotional reverse-holo entei from the movie. That was when I first moved to u.s.! ^_^

    I think people who hate Pokemon are just ignorant. For most of the kids in your class have liked Pokemon one time or another.
    Anyway, I first got gooked to Pokemon back when I was 8 years old, in the third grade. I was sitting in the living room, when Pokemon the anime came on. It was "The Island of Giant Pokemon" episode. It was the very first Pokemon theme I had ever seen and experienced in my whole life. Shorty after, I began to collect the cards, and so did everyone else in my school. Then, for my 9th birthday, me and my friends went to see Pokemon the First Movie. Then, I got Silver Version, my first Pokemon game ever. I loved it, with my totodile at my side, we ventured throughout Johto and beat every trainer that crossed our paths. Then I got Crystal Version. I liked that one even more because I could be a girl and the animations rocked. Now, at the age of fourteen, I love Pokemon just as strongly as ever. My friends all know I like Pokemon, and my best pal Laura even likes Pokemon too. She is the best at Pokemon Snap and her Blue Version she beat in just a matter of days. ^^ Now, on to the dear Ruby Version. I got this about a year ago. I am currently in Lilycove City, and tracking down Maxie of Team Magma, the fool stole the Blue Orb.....Oh! I also now have around 300 Pokemon cards, no doubles.
    Weeeeeeeeeeell, that's how it alllllllllllll started. ^_~
