I LOVE to play pokemon!

I use...

Cherrim
Jumpluff
Lunatone
Mismagius
Shiny Dragonite
Manaphy

But I have lots of pokemon to sub in whenever I want. B)

I've collected all the pokemon, except for Shaymin and Arceus. B)

Do YOU like Pokemon?

I played it when I was a kid, but stopped after the gold/silver versions. Just grew out of it I guess..

But nothing beats Charizard for pure awesomeness 

I was always more of a Magic: The Gathering kinda gal.

But yeah, that too just got too expensive to keep up. Wish I'd kept some of those old Rares though - could probably finance my surgery with them now.

Mina.

Mewtwo

Typhlosion

Umbreon

Tyrannitar

Houndoom

Ampharos
And many others.. : )

The original pokemons were awesome

yellow on the gameboy was always my favourite because pikachu followed you around, super cute 

My party always consisted of:

Pikachu
Gengar
Charizard
Butterfree
Mewtwo
Polywrath

I had a massive collection of pokemon cards, I had all of the base set, all the jungle set, and most of the other ones, including a huge collection of Japanese cards, I sold them on ebay and made a pretty penny 

Anyone ever play the pokemon TCG on the gameboy? That was AWESOME

I also played the TCG in real life and went to tournaments and stuff

I'm a nerd

Same here.

When it came to card games I played Yu-gi-oh for a short while

Me too. XP

Butterfree is bad-ass.

Oh, BTW, Guys and Gals, if you want the adorable pokemon "Shaymin" for your Diamond or Pearl version, head over to ToysRUs Feb. 8-14.

It's like mew, but newer, hedgehogier, and grassier.

I was addicted to pokemon as a kid.  It was the reason I got my first game boy.  Some friends of mine talked me into getting pearl when I got my ds and it was well worth it.  I guess you just never really grow out of that kind of stuff.

Crystal was by far the best thought out game, and one that was certainly frigging amazing and still had the soul of the first ones.

Red and Green (Blue) were amazing for the synesthetic because the colors and illustration and styles mixed with the music were just candy to me... Even more so than the other games which started to lose that just a tad.

I wish they'd remake Gold and Silver already...

So are you going to get Shaymin?

I can't wait!

Call me Miss Dark Trainer
My team is as follows:
Nemesis-Tyrannitar Male Lv 100 Met at Level 1
Ayarikyu-Weavile Female Lv 79 Met at Level 30
Midnight-Umbreon Male Lv 83 Met at Level 1
Omega-Spiritomb Female Lv 88 Met at Level 20
Sin-Absol Female Lv 93 Met at Level 23
Dark Wing-Honchrow Female Lv 94 Met at Level 25

As a Child who grew up when pokemon was first released (my first kinda nostalgia, makes me feel so old) I feel it's my duty to say there are 151 pokemon. You can maybe count the gold and silver ones, maybe!! But the new million or so are not real pokemon.I'm a purist

Charizard, Alakazam, the three bellsprout ones are by far the best.

I'd have to agree that, for me, it just wasn't the same after all of the other ones came around later.  I had original cards, the Pikachu/tamagotchi thingy, a couple stuffed pikachus, at least 5 figurines, and even the Pokemon board game.  I think that a good part of it was that because there were so many different ones, it kinda lost the feeling like you could ever "catch 'em all."

I only played the originals as well, and baby, I had all of them memorized at one point.

I spent a fortune of saved allowance on Pokemon when I was little, and you know what, it was so much fun as a kid, that I don't really regret a penny lost.
