When did you start playing Pokémon?

Ozy is away on holiday and with PJ being very busy this week I’m the one who has to update the site. Normally I would have written a new Focus On, but I haven’t got the time to write it past weekend. So I’m doing a small update now, and I hope to have some new articles ready in a few days. If you have suggestions, please PM me.

So, now, the question of today: When did you guys start playing Pokémon? What was your first game? How old where you back then? And so on…

My first game I played was Red, which a played on my cousin’s Gameboy pocket, because I was too young to own the game myself. The first game I owned myself was Yellow, which I received as a Christmas gift combined with my green Gameboy Color. It guess that was around the year 2000.

Enough of me, it’s your turn to start discussing in the comments!

  1. I played my first game at 6 which was the 3rd gen emerald. i know i was kinda late but i only got addicted and actually thought about buying one when i saw my friend playing. i’m only 14 now. i liked the 4th gen the best since i actually played most of the third gen games without an idea of how to play. in fact i had such a hard time beating the 3rd gym in emerald with a lvl 42 swellow without knowing why the pokemon kept fainting me.

  2. My first game was Yellow, way back in 2005, on a GBC I found just lying there in the park. It was actually my first videogame, and made me into a Ninten-fan. I still have and play both of them to this day =D

  3. My very first Pokemon game was Red. I got it for my 13th birthday (1998) and I didn’t even have a system to play it on, lol. My birthday this year will mark half my life as a Pokemon fan. It’s been a loooooooooong journey that I don’t ever seen ending.
