I am 19 years old and have been with Pokémon since [[Generation I]]. I am currently enrolled in community college, and still somehow find time to work on this. Despite Pokémon's continued abuse from multiple fronts, my faith in the games has continued strong, and I intend to keep it that way. | |||

"What's the point in being the best? There's nothing to aspire to!"
I am 19 years old and have been with Pokémon since Generation I. I am currently enrolled in community college, and still somehow find time to work on this. Despite Pokémon's continued abuse from multiple fronts, my faith in the games has continued strong, and I intend to keep it that way. Current Platinum status

Me and PokémonThe top pretty much sums up my approach of Pokémon battling. It's a game. Have fun with it by getting better. I’m not someone who would build a team specifically for one event. I’m someone who puts a team together and improves it over and over again. I’ve been with Pokémon since the beginning, and don’t intend on stopping in this lifetime or the next. Since Generation I, my general strategy with Pokémon battling has been Weakness Exploitation, and that hasn’t changed too much over the decade I have been playing. It works for me, and as long as it does, I’ll continue to do it. Since the Pokémon anime has remained basically the same over the years, excluding video improvements as well as voice actor changes, I have fallen off watching it as much as I did. On a side note, I feel that I should mention that I hate it when people use the word "Pokemon" instead of "Pokémon". Generation IEleven years ago, a mysterious VHS tape appeared in my mailbox. There was a bright yellow sticker on the front which said, “Pokémon - Gotta Catch ‘em All!” At first, I didn’t know what to make of it. After all, I was only eight. But it didn't take long for me to realize that Pokémon involved video games and cartoons - the two biggest things that I was interested in at the time. The following Christmas, I got my version of Pokémon Blue and a Game Boy Color. The game was unlike anything I had seen before, mainly because it was portable and REAL early in my video gaming career. Unfortunately, my continued exploitation of the Cinnabar Island Glitch has made my Blue Version unplayable right now. I was so into Pokémon at the time that I even started playing the Trading Card Game for a while, but the need to buy new cards made me fall off it quickly. Super Smash Bros. was amazing. I wasn't into fighting games before I played this. I got it from my friend when he was selling his Nintendo 64 games to buy a PlayStation 2. The fighting was so fast paced that it became addictive very quickly, but it became repetitive and a little claustrophobic with the limited characters and the small stages. Generation III was overjoyed to learn that Pokémon was going to expand beyond the 151 originals. Me and my brother got different versions of the Generation II games a few weeks after they were released. Unfortunately, this is probably where my Pokémon hype was at it's weakest. Silver Version looked, felt and sounded almost exactly like it's predecessor. It felt like the exact same game, despite Pokémon being given given the ability to hold items, and the introduction of gender. Melee was a bit of a disappointment for me. It really felt like it was just a polished version of the first game. I personally feel that Nintendo and HAL Laboratory made a mistake releasing this game alongside the GameCube, since it only had the Nintendo 64 games to build on. The battles got monotonous and even boring after a while. Hopefully, SoulSilver will do better than Silver did... Generation IIII was bittersweet for me when I heard that Pokémon was entering it’s third generation, since I had to get a Game Boy Advance to play it. This generation marked the first time I started to develop a “bond” with my Pokémon, pretty much since that it was also the first time I started playing favorites. My hype was at it's peak when I attended the 10th Anniversary Journey Across America in Cincinnati, Ohio. Unfortunately, I failed to register online for battling prior to the event, but I still got a Typhlosion and a Celebi, and I saw some great battles. Sapphire was good, mainly because it felt like a much newer game than Silver Version. The graphics were completely redone for the Game Boy Advance, and the introduction of double battling changed my battling tactics entirely. It was also a landmark game for me since it was the game where my Pokémon contracted Pokérus. It was great to revisit Kanto in FireRed, and the addition of the Sevii Islands and the Vs. Seeker allowed for the fun to last a little longer. But it looked so much like Blue Version, it got boring after a short while, since it felt too much like the same game. I got a Nintendo DS Lite in 2006, waiting for Generation IV. To kill time with it, I got Blue Rescue Team, since the divergence from the typical Pokémon fare intrigued me, but I was disappointed with the weak storyline. While the end was a bit sad, the whole reason of your existence as a Pokémon just felt foolish. Generation IVWith the advent of online battling finally coming to light, my Pokémon hype in Generation IV was higher than ever. This Generation had an outrageous amount of advancements compared to it's predecessors. I was so hyped up in this Generation, that I have started to train multiple teams, which was something I had thought of doing in Generation III, but never got around to doing. Between Diamond, Battle Revolution, Explorers of Time, and Brawl, it goes without a doubt that Generation IV was the best generation of Pokémon for me. Pokémon Diamond

Generation VAs of now, I have heard nothing about Pokémon continuing into it's fifth generation. I've heard rumors that It will be stopping. I have heard rumors that it will be continuing. But that is all they are. Rumors. I would be thrilled to learn that Pokémon will be continuing beyond it's already impressive history, but if it is to stop only at it's fourth generation, that would just be okay. Disappointing, but okay. PokérusYes, that's right. I have it. It was a typical day for me. I was just playing through my Sapphire Version fighting some wild Pokémon on Victory Road. When I returned to the Pokémon Center, the Nurse told me, and I couldn't believe it. I had only recently learned of Pokérus, it's benefits and it's outragrous rarity. Thankfully, since I had learned of Pokérus prior to contraction, I knew how to save and harvest it. Today, I still have live strains of Pokérus in about 15 of my Pokémon, and I have used it in my Sapphire, FireRed, Diamond, and Platinum versions. It has been very helpful with my training, especially since I recently got Platinum. I know I am VERY lucky to have this virus in my training arsenal, and I intend to use it as much as I can. Since it is so rare, Pokérus may be partly responsible for my continued play of the games. Generation II RemakesI couldn't believe my eyes when I opened up Serebii.net that afternoon. Up until May 8th, I had only thought that Generation II remakes had only existed in internet speculation. I can't wait for remakes of Gold and Silver, mainly because Generation II was my weakest generation of Pokémon. And since FireRed and LeafGreen got an entirely new area to the gameplay, the anticipation is killing me as to what the new hook will be for HeartGold and SoulSilver. I'm for it and I'm definitely going to get it! Frontier Brain VideosSinnoh's Battle Frontier is very challenging. It's great that Platinum allows players to record those videos, and even post them online. Here is the videos of me defeating Sinnoh's Frontier Brains. Battle Tower
