Who here actually plays Pokémon games (the RPGs, not the card game or anything like that)?
I know I do :D.
when i was 15-16 i was hugely into Pokemon. the anime rocked and i loved Red/Blue/Yellow. i think i spent like 170 hours on Red and got 150 pokemon, 20 lv100's, 6 mewtwos etc.
but i lost interest when gold/silver came out and the Anime stsrted 2 go down hill. it Eventually meant i sold my Red July 2003. i regret that, but i just did not play it anymore.
i still watch classic Pokemon when its on...and my bro likes it, so i still play it sumtimes. i just think the new Pokemon games r rehashs of the Red/Blue classics.
I still play them, I just bought sappire about 3 weeks ago. My best creatures are on my silver version. I got a Mewtwo that has never been KO'd, that sucker is a beast.
i was like the second best poke player back at my old school. and then i got 6 lv100 Mewtwos... :D
this one guy though, who was better then me, was insane. he was the master. i only ever beat him once (and that was with a lv255 Snorlax i attained using Reds Missingno glitch).
I can't wait for Pokémon Emerald (has been officially announced for Japan, so far) because it brings pre-battle animations back (like with Crystal) :D.
I still have, and every once in a while, play, Pokémon R/B/Y, G/S/C, and Ru/Sa (still working on getting my favorite teams for Ru/Sa). Can't wait for FR/LG to come out, because I've been wantin' to replay R/B/Y, but can't get over the minimum of only 20 items for carrying around.
I played the game, it wasn't bad. Ruby and Sapphire dissappointed me because even though it was for GBA you couldn't have all the pokemon like you could in Silver and Gold which were for GBC. I may play them again, I don't know.
i feel like they cant compete with FF. plus there is no peer group 2 show off 2 any more :cool:
Pokemon rules. My brother is the champ in the family but that's only because he's afraid to play my team. I've played the Yellow and Silver versions. The new ones get stale, I was cool with the 150, then the extra 100 wasn't bad, but now there's like 500 pokemon and that's too many to keep track of.
I played Pokemon back when it was just Red and Blue, but I really don't anymore.
I was the first person in my old town to hate Pokémon and I'm the only person within my group of friends to still hate Pokémon.
The pokemon RPGs are sheer brilliance. There's the deceptively simple game on the outside, and then the intelligent, complicated, cut-throat game of wits and strategy underneath.
It gives you a sense of pride, being aware that you know vastly more than the people who gives special attacks to Gyarados, or Hyper Beam to anything.

In fact, I'm estatic about Leaf Green. Can't wait.
What are the new Red and Green games supposed to be about?
I only played the original Red and Blue and a bit of Yellow before I got rather bored. I played the card game as well but my deck went out of fashion when everyone seemed to have a Charizard..
