Kanto for me

 

My first exposure to Pokemon was watching 2 people trade with Red and Blue, but I didn't know what it was. I would occasionally watch the show when it first aired but still wasn't big into it. I didn't become a "fan" until I watched The First Movie in theaters, so I missed out on the gen 1 games. I still remember getting Gold version as a Christmas gift the following year. Took me 4 months just to reach the Ruins of Alp.

 

I remember getting into Pokémon blue before the anime was popular and my small class had no interest whenever I’d try to talk about it. Then it blew up and everyone got the game and I’d wipe the floor with them because I had already beat the game. Now I don’t know shit about battling

 

Just completed the main story of Violet and was pleasantly surprised with the ending. It picks up once you go to Aero Zero and the reveal was quite nice. Pretty much the best part of a broken game.

 

my parents bought red and blue for my brother and I in like 97 or 98. I got red he got blue.

 

First Pokemon game I played was Yellow, I think I got it for Christmas the year it came out in Europe. Later on I had Blue and Silver, then didn’t play any of the games again until Violet (which I still need to finish).

I do have good memories of playing Pokemon on my brother’s old original Gameboy and eventually upgrading to a GBA.

 

I missed out on the starter conversation awhile back but

Got a nice little double banger earlier… my 8th alternate art!

 

This franchise is trying its hardest to be embarrassing.

The card game is all that’s left to keep my interest

 

I will say that being way out of the loop with Pokémon for like 20 years now (lol), the TCG doing the things they’re doing with full-arts and secret-rares/trainers, and alternate-arts… adding those added layers for collectors… it’s been the most enjoyable part of pulling cards again.

Because I’ve never played the game… so it gives the collectors something a bit “more” to seek out.

Even still… the old-school gen 1/gen 2 holo’s are still incredible, even when compared to the modern, basic holographics. I do wish they still put the same effort and care into those as well…

 

I’m late to the party but I also started with Red/Blue. I got both together with a GBC.

 

I started with Red/Blue… and played through the Ruby/Sapphire era.

 

A new card set is coming out this year called ‘151’ and the art for a lot of them look crazy good.

 

I think the update will be next month and they probably just didn’t want to say that

 

thinking about selling a bunch of my pokemon games. i've got: heart gold, omega ruby, black 2, og ruby, diamond and platinum. reckon i could get a a decent amount?

 

lmao yeah, probably

 

I think I paid $50 or $60 for HeartGold like 7 years ago, i'm sure it goes for more now

 

Seems like there will be a home update next week but doesn’t say anything about sv compatibility

 

Pretty sure bw2 go for hundreds now, which is wild

 

it better happen

 

I hope it never does lol

 

this is so mean

 

The constant complainers tho
