Relapse

Hello, Im 20 years old and brand new to the forums though ive been poking around the database for a while now.
As indicated by the title im a pokefan who was raised on the show, stopped following during my rough teenaged years and now that im an adult with a very time consuming job i recently relapsed on Pokemon... Bad... Like two DS's and both versions of every generation i had missed..
amidst my tidal wave of consumption i was wondering how typical my experience was.
So i wanted to ask how many people went down the same road i did, and how many people just never left the pokefandom?
Im glad to be a member and plan on contributing for a while to come :)
 
I am pretty much skipping Gen 6, but other than that I am nice. I breed and talk to others. I am here if anything goes down.
 
Same exact thing happen to me. I grew up during the pokemon culture explosion where you couldn't be anywhere without hearing about or taking part of the video games shows toys cards etc. I played and enjoyed it very much until ruby and saphire played them loved them then just dropped those and pretty much grew up and out of it didn't care about or want to do anything with it just like you said rough teenage years getting into crazy crap in my life and then about 2 years ago I got back into Legos my absolutely favorite thing when I was young and about a year and a half ago got back into pokemon hardcore like you said bought a ds and a 3 ds pokemon b,w,b2,w2 everything. After going thru this I was think wtf just happen? Why am I doing spontaneous weird stuff like blowing a ton of money on children's toys and I really put thought into it and realized i grew up way too fast and I'm trying to buy my childhood back, it was a way easier and simpler time and Jesus I almost get blissfully high with all the nostalgia I get from it all. So now I have just pokemon x and its way fun, I learned how to to tone it down and play and have fun with it without going over board with trying to get my childhood back and Obsess over it. Too much of anything can be a bad thing!
