Games
- My first game is one of original Hoenn games that I started playing in 2005, but I don't remember which version it was. I stopped playing the game very early, because I didn't like the region back then.
- I have completed a Living Pokédex in early 2018.
- My longest Pokémon battle has been against Champion Wallace in Emerald Version, lasting around 1 hour.
Gameplay
- I never leave my starter Pokémon.
- I catch the "national bird" Pokémon and keep them on my team until the end unless I already had trained one in another version before.
- There are no types that I never trained.*
- I only play with the Pokémon that debut in the generation of its game, unless the generation introduces a new evolution or form to the species.
- Until Generation VI games, I would have my Pokémon either with a beneficial or ineffective nature. This rule is broken from Pokémon X and onwards due to arguably easiness of the games.
- I keep the level of my Pokémon on my team as close as possible.
- There are so far 20 Pokémon I have with nicknames.
- Venusaur, Blastoise, Clefable, Ninetales, Primeape, Hitmonlee, Flareon, Dragonite, Sceptile, Altaria, Audino and Decidueye are named after their or their evolutions' Japanese names, or based on their Japanese names.
- Raichu is nicknamed "Foudre", French for Thunder.
- Jynx is nicknamed "Zynx", a nickname non-player character has given and cannot be changed.
- Ludicolo is nicknamed "Runmamma", a reference to its Japanese name "Runpappa" but in feminine form.
- Xerneas is nicknamed "Nature", based on its concept.
- Incineroar is nicknamed "Pootsmann", referring to an Estonian singer, Jüri Pootsmann, due to his dark performance at Eurovision Song Contest 2016.
- Corviknight is nicknamed "Hopperhawk", referring to Edward Hopper's painting Nighthawks.
- Sirfetch'd is nicknamed "Siegfried", referring to Richard Wager's opera character from Götterdämmerung.
- Alpha Sapphire has the only team which defeated the league first time with less than 6 Pokémon in the party.
- I don't necessarily choose the gender of a specific Pokémon.
- X has the only team that coincidentally consists of the same gender Pokémon.
- Out of 15 starter Pokémon, only 3, Charizard, Blastoise and Decidueye, are female.
- So far, 8 teams of mine are male-oriented, 3 teams are female-oriented, 4 teams are equally distributed.
- Out of 90 Pokémon, 49 are male, 32 are female, 9 are genderless.
- Charizard and Blastoise are the only Pokémon that I trained for more than one party.
