Hey, this is my userpage... in case you hadn't guessed.

Recap on my life involving Pokémon games

I was very young when I first started playing Pokémon. I enjoyed the games up until after Gen II, when I suddenly decided that I didn't like Pokémon any more. When I had gotten bored of playing Gold for hours on end, I just stopped there. I remember thinking that they had made too many Pokémon, and decided to just forget about the games. I carried on with my life as normal, having nothing to do with Pokémon until very recently, when I decided to try out Pokémon Pearl on a whim... just because I hadn't played Pokémon for such a long, long time. Then, I slowly started getting obsessed again... I decided to get FireRed and LeafGreen, so I could relive my old memories of the games I used to play nonstop. Even more recently, I decided to find Ruby and Sapphire to see what I had missed. I'm playing through Ruby now, and I think that I would have enjoyed it very much if I had chosen to play it when I was younger...

I'm apparantly meant to be too old to be obsessed with Pokémon right now (I'm 16 years old), but I don't care. I like playing the games anyway.

Right now, one of my most valued possessions is my Pokémon Pearl cartridge. According to the in-game timer, I've spent 400+ hours playing it. For comparison, I dug up my old Pokémon Gold cartridge and checked the timer. It says 356 hours played on it.
