Hey everyone, I'm Yoko and I'm new here. I thought I'd join this forum as my interest in Pokemon is picking up again due to the all the Diamond and Pearl news I've been reading on the main site.
I bought the Blue version on the day it came out and loved it to bits. I collected 150 and I was very proud of myself as I was the first out of my Pokemon friends to reach the 150 goal. I never got Mew though as I don't think we get any Nintendo events here in the UK.
Anyways, I then bought Gold on the day of release but didn't get too far. My friends had decided they had outgrown Pokemon and so I could never complete my Gold 'dex. I managed to earn 8 badges after a few weeks of play but then stopped. I never got to know the new Pokemon well and my interest in Pokemon wore off.
I didn't bother with Ruby or Sapphire as I had completly forgotten about Pokemon. It wasn't until a few weeks ago I read some news on the Serebii site about the new games coming out that my interest started to pick up again and I went out and purchased Emerald. And "WOW" is all I can say, I've really been missing out. All these new and wonderful creatures, it seems so fresh and I'm loving it. I got my 6th badge today and my squad is full of new Pokemon I didn't know about before. I can't wait to get my hands on a Flareon though (my favourite pokemon
)
Anyways, this forum looks like a lot of fun and I hope to make some friends on here. See ya around!
