How did you become a Pokémon fan?

Re: How did you become a Pokémon fan?

Back when I was 3 years old, I watched the Johto episode in which Ash battles Bugsy. I seemed to like that episode alot, so I asked my parents a year later to buy me Pokemon Red. I finished the game after my brother, and i still play it up to this day, just re-living the best moments of my childhood.

I started comparatively recently. It must have been 2004 or 2005. A cousin of mine downloaded Ruby or Sapphire ROM's on his computer and let me play. I was hooked from the start. I longed for each visit to my uncle's.They then moved somewhere farther and the visits became less frequent. My interest in Pokémon waned.

At that time, I was in grade three. It would be over a year before Don came along.

Don came to our school at the beginning of grade 5. Our friendship bloomed rapidly. He put the poster that came with Emerald up on our shared locker. At that moment, I seemed to remember a game called Pokémon...

Even though, Don, you have moved away, that probability dictates very little chance for our reunion, remember that you will always be in my memory...

Re: How did you become a Pokémon fan?

One Saturday morning, when I was three, I watched the premiere of the very first Pokemon episode on KidsWB and I was hooked ever since. I now have pretty much every single game (besides some of the DS games; i.e. Pokemon Ranger, Mystery Dungeon). My first game that I really got into and could understand was Pokemon Silver for the original Gameboy. I have over 1,000 Pokemon cards now, too. :)
