well it all started when I was like 2 or 3 my mom used to wake up super early to go to work so I would wake up with her and the tv would sometimes be on any sailor moon would come on then right after it a show called pokemon came on and I just kept waking up and watching it I remember I waited in front of the tv with it off for an hour until the time hit 7:00 a.m. and then I started watching pokemon and my mom found out I like it and she gradually got me pokegear like sheets,cards,card binders,games,appearal,bookbags and stuff like that

It was all a suprise my Dad got me Red (my favorite Color) And my Brother Blue ( his favorite Color) but, I took a LONG break from it then got Sapphire in 2004 and it started all over again. My brother lost his interest in new pokemon but he is faithful to the older ones

Volcano Trainer
Back in 1998 when it first started, EVERYONE at my school loved it and I wanted to get into it like my friends, but I didn't have the channel the anime was on back then, but my friend Logan kept me up to date on things. My first episode was Pokemon Scent-sation and my first game was Gold. I'm not friends with any of those people anymore, and I'm sure most of them have grown out of it. When they did, I sorta tried to keep my little "fetish" a secret 'cause it was embarassing, now I just see it as a way that I'm different from everybody and it makes me unique. Plus, everyone's figured it out by now. lol.

Main screen turn on!
I started playing pokemon when red came out and i'm still obsessed with it.
Now im in 8th grade, and it turns out there are more pokemon trainers at my school than I thought. But it stinks that no girls at my school play it. Girls who play pokemon are awesome.

My interest started when Pokémon first came out. One of my friends had Pokémon Red, and he talked about it all the time. I decided to get a Game Boy Color, since I hadn't been much into the handheld genre and missed out on many games on it. I had a choice between Pokémon Red, and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX. I decided to get Red, even though it wasn't a GBC game and I've been a Pokémon fan ever since.

Feel my soul
About 6 years ago, my cousin showed me his Pokemon Red game, and got me hooked on the anime. We bought Pokmeon T-shirts, action figures, books, cards, everything! XD Then, I stopped watching the anime a few years later, and lost interest in it. D; But, then this girl moved to my neighborhood about four years ago, and she totally got me obsessed with it again! Now I have the games, cards and everything once again! I guess you're never too old to like Pokemon! ^^
