Pokemon

So, I've noticed that there are a lot of Pokemon fans on here. I started playing when I was six, and have been a huge fan ever since.
My FC on Black 2 is 3096 4955 3414, if anyone wants to battle or trade. I'm in the process of EV training my team, so I probably won't be much of a challenge.

I was obsessed with Pokemon when I was younger, I still have all my cards but didn't do much with actually playing with them (though you should have seen my face when I got my holographic Charizard). For the video games I love Pokemon Snap, Pokemon Stadium, and I only play Pikachu when playing Super Smash Bros (all N64). Still have and enjoy those games :P

I am still obsessed with OG pokemon. You should see my card collection =]]

Pokemon was an integral part of my childhood. I purchased Pokemon Black a few months ago and really couldn't get back into it...
My snakes are my Pokemon now. "Bumblebee, GO!" *pulls open pokebin* "Use bite! Now WRAP!" *bumblebee wraps f/t rat*

:banana:

Oh I loved pokemon! Nothing will ever be better than the original red game for me :) I still have about 3000 cards some where in my closet. I had a card collector try to buy them all for $11,000!! I kept them because if they are worth that much then I can't wait to see what they are worth later on. Are they out of colors or something? Is that why they are using numbers now or what's up with the white 2 and black 2? My favorite pokemon were and still are Charizard and Rapidash :D The newer pokemon are going to crap...like the one shaped like icecream or the one shaped like trash....really?

$11K???

Time to go find me and my brothers old cards in the basement lol...

IDK about 11k... Maybe 1k... I was big into poke'mon until they added the 3rd gen poke'mon. I was 8 when Red came out. I remember that was the most used xmas present ever! I still remember by accident walking towards the elite four at the start of the game and having that Damn Gary knock me out with a level 8 spearow and a level 7 squirtle... I cried and felt so bad for my level 6 Charmander he didn't stand a chance :(...

Pokemon was awesome! I played up through pokemon platinum but its beginning to be too much. My favorite version was silver/gold. I havent played in a few years though. Haha! I am 24 and the last time I played pokemon I was deployed and killin time at the age of 21! Lol... :P But I have all the original base set cards and I cant seem to part with them. I have had people offer to buy them for 500 bucks but I just cant do it. They are the only thing I havent been able to let go of...

I still collect cards on occasion, I still get giddy when I find a holo :)

I still have my ratty old binder full of Pokemon cards. :D I played the Red and Yellow versions of the games, and never got around to playing another until I got Diamond, which I LOVED, and Platinum, which was AWESOME. I got super excited for Black and White, but when I got Black and started playing, the only thing I really found cool about it was the graphics... To be honest, there were pretty much NO Pokemon that I went "wow, I really wanna catch one of those!". It seriously looks like they're running out of ideas and just going "HAY IT'S POKEMANZ BUY THIS STUFF." and everyone goes "DERP KAY." :hmm:

Don't get me started.

I have a Pokemon leg sleeve in progress ;)

Lol I spent probably close to $500 on just the single packages at walmart and I bought a huge collection off of ebay for $1800 which consisted of a little over a thousand cards if I remember right. I have all the original ones plus most throughout the other series, an amazing amount of the japanese cards, lots of holo legendaries, the whole collection of arceus cards which I didn't buy off of ebay I was extremely lucky to find them in packages which just shows you how much I bought. My favorite one I will never sell is my Rayquaza gold star card :) That I did buy for about $80 alone. But alot of mine are the very original cards in great condition which makes them worth alot plus with none of them being trainer cards or energy cards....I hated those and threw them away....I have over 3,000 out of around 5,000 english cards? maybe less cards with no repeats. My repeats were sold on ebay or craigslist, or if they were useless and weren't worth anything I gave them to siblings.

Getting back into Pokemon.Beat Black already and now I'm going back to Platinum first then White 2.
Team I am using for Platinum

LOVE Pokemon! Still play the old red and silver on the emulators on my computer every once and a while. Always wished they would make an actual console game that was the same style as the hand held. XD Gales of Darkness for the Gamecube came close but didn't quite get it right.

Well, I 'love' Pokemon, but only the first 'season' (Red/Blue/Yellow), and tolerate the second one (Gold/Silver).

I bought a NDS Lite just to play Pokemon Black when it came out, and even tho I had a blast, I was disappointed with how easier it is compared to the older games (I like old-style hard games), and it's not just the fact that I'm older and felt that the game was easier, I have RED/BLUE/YELLOW emulators on my computers, on my 3DS and on my Graphic Calculator (YES, I SAID CALCULATOR :D ), and still find them harder than the Black :rolleyes:

Anyway, I got really hooked up with Pokemon in 1997 or 1998 and was a massive die-hard fan, I collected EVERYTHING (well, not really, but lots of stuff) that came out from Pokemon, but lost all the interest during the second phase (gold/silver), IDK.


Proof of my Calculator :D

Yea thats really bothering me. You should fix it and stuff. :rolleyes: :D

This is the main team I use for Black and White. I used to play red and yellow but it's really hard to follow considering I think it's pretty lacking in story. I think they've really stepped it up in terms of story telling (which I'm a huge fan of) with the later installments and made me feel justified level grinding and finding new pokemaaaans. I also used to collect cards when I was little but when I moved out of the house, parents sold 'em and kept the money. >:C

On a side note, gonna try and start a nuzlocke challenge pretty soon here so that should be pretty interesting!

I LOVE Pokemon! My boyfriend has no clue was it is/was... I'll tell him all about some of the episodes and different characters and he looks at me like I'm stupid... Ugh... But he let me name my ball python, Brock :) ... but that was after we went through like 100 other names! Haha.

It's not retarded at all! I want a pokemon tattoo of some type. I'm just working on the idea and trying to limit the number of pokemon...I have so many that I love.

Not retarded at all, if I ever get a tattoo, It'll prolly be a Zelda one.
