| ==Pokémon Red and Blue==
| |
| In 1998 I got a blue [[Game Boy Color]] and a copy of {{g|Blue}} for Christmas; this started an interesting ride through the franchise. {{g|Blue}} wasn't my first run-in with the franchise, it was in a local Target where I saw an advertisement in a copy of Disney Adventures where there were a plethora of [[Pokémon]] under a gigantic net. The first one to catch my eye was {{p|Pidgeot}} which made me interested in the game because it was "an awesome bird".
| |
|
| |
| I obtained all 151 [[Pokémon]] in the Kanto [[Pokédex]] legitimately. This is the only time I have ever completed the National Dex.
| |
|
| |
| ==Pokémon Gold and Silver==
| |
| This was a gift from my grandparents very my birthday. There isn't too much history with this game, only the fact that it was my last [[Pokémon]] game until {{g|Mystery Dungeon|Red Rescue Team}}. This game also harbored my only shiny [[Pokémon]], the shiny {{p|Gyarados}} from the [[Lake of Rage]].
| |
|
| |
| After the main hype of the game died down, I packed up my [[Game Boy Color|Game Boy]] and gave it and my two games to my neighbor's younger son. It took me six whole years to even glance at the franchise again, but that day did come.
| |
|
| |
| ==Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team==
| |
| This was an odd ball. The only other [[Pokémon]] spin-off games I knew that weren't {{g|Stadium}} was {{g|Pinball}}. I had started to frequent a video game site that was a little keen on the [[Pokémon]] franchise and they had caught wind of a new game being released where you actually played as a [[Pokémon]]. To tell you the truth, I was a little intrigued by the thought of playing a Pokémon instead of being the [[Pokémon Trainer]] that was used in the normal games.
| |
|
| |
| I did emulate {{g|Mystery Dungeon|Red Rescue Team}}, and I enjoyed it. It was a little strange to start playing a game franchise that I enjoyed from my childhood, but I beat it a few times and had a decent experience. It took a while to learn all the new [[Pokémon]] that I missed from the [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire|third generation]] though.
| |
|
| |
| ==Pokémon Diamond and Pearl==
| |
| I picked this game up along with a [[Nintendo DS]] after watching a few of Marriland's battles on YouTube. I figured since it had online battles, I'd be able to find more people to fight than just people in my community. While I was disappointed that there was no "random battle" option like many online fighting of first-person shooter games had, the online still wasn't bad.
| |
|
| |
| Overall {{g|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond}} was a decent re-introduction into the main games of the franchise. It suffered because of my lack of {{g|Ruby and Sapphire|third generation game}} to transfer [[Pokémon|Pokés]] from, but it didn't detract to it too much.
| |
|
| |
| ==Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time==
| |
|
| |
| Even though this is another game from the fourth generation, it deserves a special mention in the Pokémon history part of my user page. After my decent experience with {{g|Mystery Dungeon|Red Rescue Team}}, I decided I might as well buy the sequel, {{g|Mystery Dungeon 2|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time}}. I heard about it about a week before release and bought it on a whim. On April 20, 2008 after coming home I started to play it... 17 hours later I put my [[Nintendo DS]] down to go to sleep. I loved the story and game play so much that [[Pokémon]] became a borderline obsession for a few months afterward.

| |
| After completing the main story six times, it has gone down as my favorite game of all time. Early in 2009 I found a new copy of {{g|Mystery Dungeon|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team}} so I could finally have the real cartridge for {{g|Mystery Dungeon 2|Explorers of Time}}'s predecessor.
