The Pokemon Mega Thread

Pokémon was my favorite series growing up as a kid. I look back on Gens 3 and 4 with particular fondness. The early games are easy for me to replay at any time. I loved a few of the spinoff games, too.

The series started losing me around Gen 6, though I didn't fully stop playing them until USUM. I thought ORAS was good, but I did not like XY or SM much at all.

technically, johto does actually exist to an extent. here's a brief summary from google about it.
"The Johto region in the Pokemon world is primarily based on the Kansai region of Japan, particularly the areas of Nara, Kyoto, and Osaka. It also incorporates elements from the Chūbu and Shikoku regions."

A beautiful region, thanks buddy .

Used to get the cards. Fossil and Jungle were my favorite decks. :) First card I ever got was a Squirtle card from my best friend when we were like 10. Used to keep that and the Pikachu from the VHS tape in my shirt pocket at school. Had to sneak those things in. lol I knew this one kid who actually kept those min Pokemon figurines in his locker. He had a Butterfree. Could never find that one. One year my old man was fired and that Christmas he bought a bunch of those mini figures for me and my sister. I still have them. Gave my cards to my sister because her husband wanted them because they were worth a lot of dough now. I figured they had a house and a life and i didn't so i gave them all of my original cards, a full binder of them. They have two kids now so they have those in case of emergency. They got my Pokemon Master board game too. Man I miss the old days of getting up at like 6am to watch Pokemon before going to school every morning. Used to get those mini comics with the VHS tapes too. The games were great!

Gen 1 was the best.

I wholeheartedly regret trading in the GBA and GC Pokémon games I used to have. I should have known well that the old Pokémon games would go up in value so much. Now, all I have is a US copy of Leaf Green that used to be complete-in-box and needs a new cartridge shell, and a Japanese copy of White 2.

Yes, Gen 6 was the point in the series that I couldn't keep up with it anymore.
