I played my friend's Blue version for like 3 years so I didn't actually own one.
I finally bought Blue when I was 11. Even though I technically started it when I was about 7. XD
Me and my brother got Blue and Yellow at the same time. I remember my brother was 10, which he was always so excited about since it made him the same as Ash, which would make me 7 or 8.
Huh, pretty interesting thread. Well, it was December 1999 when I accedentaly saw Pokemon yellow on a magazine.So, I asked for "Santa" to bring me that as a Christmas gift.
In December 1999 I was 3-4 years old. Now, I'm 14-15. 12 years addicted to Pokemon.
I was around 5 years old I was gonna get gold but chose blue instead since I liked the color blue. I got up all the way to charizard before getting past the old man yeah 31 levels on only rattata and pidgey and whatever was on the way to the league
