Remember it?= Yes
Love it? = Hell, no.

I still have it and play it to this day lol.
Remember tthe duplication cheat?

Pokemon is a most excellent RPG. A very respectable franchise, and no, it's not just for little kids.
All my old versions are lost (presumable stolen) or the batteries have died

I have my Red sitting on my desk from playing it last week. ^_^ I still like this series; reserved the new one yesterday.

Note, I'm saying I like the games. The cartoon that ruined the franchise, well, that can [insert vague and offensive things here].

as a child it was fun.. now screw it lol

well, its fun for long boring road trips and what not..
and i knew there were a lot of pokemon fans on the site so i thought i'd mention it.

Remember to surf up and down along the right side of Cinnabar Island so you can find a level 100 Misingno.

I remember I cried one year when Christmas came around and I didn't get Pokemon red version for a gift..

I was a bratty kid.

I remember waking up at 5:00 or whatever ungodly hour that Pokemon cartoon came on when it first came out.

I actually only started watching it to try to have a seizure. Kids, go figure.

And it came on after a Robocop cartoon that was even earlier, honesly, who would have thought to make a kids cartoon out of robocop? Next they'll be putting George Carlin as the role of of Thomas The Train's conductor, oh wait, that actually happened, what was I thinking.

Anyway, I loved that game, I remember playing it nonstop on my old 80's gameboy. I recently got a Gameboy Pocket and started replaying Red and Gold. I had to replace the batteries so I can save the games again though.

I have some friends that placed a Gameboy in my hands with Pokemon Red... It's not bad. But I played it too much that first day. But what else are you supposed to do on the weekends? Homework?

Let's just say that some people really just know the whole "dictionary" of Pokemon information... it's kind of creepy how much they know. "No, don't use a *** creature on a fire creature?" "Use your bug-type, it'll work better on this.... -der." One can't wait until April 21st.

That there is the must know of Pokemon though, that's the kind of need to know info is the stuff I'll never forget. But shockingly some of my friends can still list off the 150 Pokemon. Creepy.

I enjoyed the games when I was younger... I began with red/blue and then briefly with gold. I suppose there are like 5000 discovered pokemon now or something? I've been tempted to try their recent release out.. not sure if I am to old now though. I still play some RPG's though. The NDS is my favourite console, just completed CONTACT - which is great.

Yeah i loved that game as a kid, i dont have the patience for that now.

I lost two blue versions and a red version, so I downloaded the roms a while back and I'm still playing them
And I've got yellow version in my desk drawer with my gameboy. I pull it out when I feel nerdy and bored.

They're still my favorite RPG's.

red version was fucking rad. I liked silver and gold too.

whats the newest colour of pokemon game? i want it!

Diamond and Pearl, coming out in the USA on April 22nd.

I still have my Pokemon Blue, but unfortunately, I lost my Pokemon Red (the first one I ever played) on a trip. Those games were amazing. The combination of Donkey Kong Land, Super Mario Land and Pokemon Red for the Gameboy are what made me a gamer.

I still do have Pokemon Blue.
Missingno-ed.

They're still making new ones? Jeez.

I wonder if there is anyone that can recite all 5000 of them now. I remember I used to know all 150 and that was an accomplishment.

I could probably name all 493 of them. But no way in order

Wow I haven't played a Pokemon game in a very long time[Last was Pokemon blue] I amm so getting Pearl version for my DS

lol never had a portable console but I remember playing pokemon on friend's gameboy colors... I never liked the gameboy advance. I really loved it though. Not sure how I'd like it now... it's getting a bit ridiculous thinking up new colours for them. Last one I played was silver edition. I never see pokemon on TV or see the cards anymore though. Man I had a huge card collection.

I can easily name all the Pokemon up to Ruby and Saphire, and the first 150 in the right order. Once I get my hands on Diamond and Pearl, I'll memorize all the new names as well.

When you play it for a while, the names start to stick. That, or I'm really nerdy.

Same here. I love to recite the original PokeRap, but the one for the Johto region is stupid. I just got my hands on the original Pokemon Pinball, which adds to my collection that includes Yellow (my first), Blue, Red, Pinball Ruby and Sapphire (can't spell it. never could), Sapphire, Silver, Crystal, LeafGreen, and (soon to have) Diamond and Pearl. Gosh, that's a mouthfull. I also have all six of the gold-plateted Pokemon cards that Burger King was selling back in '96 or '97. (My dad used to be the manager of our BK, so I always got the good toys). But wait, there's more!!! (yes, I'm a fanatic.)

My friend gave me probably 200 cards or more for my B-day last year, but I'm still lookin' for that illusive Dragonite card. (my favorite PKMN) I'm pretty sure I have all the PKMN cards that they gave away when they showed the first 3 movies in theaters. I was lucky to get the Suicune, Latias, and Latios cards at all, because I found them in the rental DVD cases at this local rental store. (If you were to buy PKMN: 4Ever in stores, you could either get Latias or Latios, but the employees at the rental store said I could have BOTH!&#33 Jirachi I got from buying the DVD.

Speaking of DVD's, I own 3. PKMN: Jirachi Wish Maker, Pokemon: The Great Race, And Pikachu's Winter Vacation. (that was also a lucky find) I also have 3 PKMN VHS's. PKMN: The 1st Movie, Pokemon The Movie 2000, And PKMN: Electric Showdown.

Oh yeah, in addition to that, I also own 2 PKMN pillowcases and 1 bed sheet, and the original Pokedex & Pokedex Advanced.

And, I think this is the last thing, a Pikachu pinata from my 8th or 9th birthday. (no one could bust that thing open, so the mom of one of my friends poked a big hole in the bottom so the candy could fall out. Then, we kept it after the party.)

No, there's more. There's also the 2 PKMN tins I own and the bookbag I use to have. But I kept the pokeball keychain from it. Did I mention the Vulpix, Seel, and 2 Dratini plushies from years ago when KFC got into the craze?

There, that's about it. Whew, I think that's the longest post I've ever done.... (Oh, and I LOOOOOVE the anime. 10th season!! WOOT!!&#33
