All About Me
I actually first got obsessed with Pokémon on the animé. (Yes, I know, shame on me.) Mainly because I didn't have a GameBoy at the time. I have a really good memory though, and my mum bought me a sticker book later on and I got to work. I managed to memorize the original 151 in order. I'm both sad, and quite glad that I'm no longer enough of a dork to be able to remember THAT.
My next endeavor was in a toy Pokédex I got for my birthday. It got a fair few bumps and scraped on it - I even managed to misplace it at my cousins who lived 40 miles away once for a whole year - but somehow it always managed to wind its way back to me. It got misplaced permanently at some point after I managed to move on to getting a GameBoy, about two years after I 'misplaced' the hinge door trying to make it more like the Johto Pokédex. ^^;
Eventually, my dad managed to get me a silver GameBoy Pocket (this was like a year or two before the release of the GameBoy Advance!) and I went out and bought the version to match that weekend. I must have played spent years of my life in game time on Pokémon Silver... My GameBoy status moved up the ranks too soon enough, and I got a GBA.
Anyway, I soon moved on to Pokémon Ruby, which was ok I thought - the main attraction were the GBA graphics and the fact that the cartridge didn't stick out of my GBA and barely fit in my pocket... And then, one Christmas, I got LeafGreen and the SP simultaneously. Yet another game I must have spent years of my life on.
Well, I got an American-import Pokémon Diamond and it was the first time I realised there was more strategy to Pokémon than, hit it as fast and hard as you can until it faints. That I can owe to Serebii.net, Pokemon.Marriland.com, and of course, our wonderful Bulbagarden. :)
Then Platinum was released, and I used it as an excuse to raise some other Pokémon I liked, namely Growlithe/Arcanine and Seedot and its evolutions.
Oh, and one more thing. I actually fell off my chair with joy and squeed when I first heard about GSDS (HeartGold and SoulSilver) being confirmed, even though I was 100% sure it was going to happen anyway. And I've only gotten more excited. ^_^
All I can say is, SoulSilver can not be released fast enough! ^_^
Pokémon
I like raising Water Pokémon because there's a lot of choice and a lot of Water Pokémon are really cool, and I also have a lot of Normal-type Pokémon and moves I like. (I really like Hyper Beam even though in the game it's a bit rubbish.) My first Pokémon ever was a Chikorita which I obtained in my Pokémon Silver. :)
My favourite Pokémon and my inseparable Pokémon partner is my Snorlax, Totoro. Props to Toto! :D
Laziness
I have EV trained most of my Pokémon... with 50 vitamins. The only EV trained Pokémon I've ever properly trained is my Snorlax, Totoro. Everything else relies on vitamins - or in some cases, nothing at all, random EVs from completing the game with them as a starter or Pokémon League-spamming. Most of the Pokémon I own are nature-bred... sort of. I'll like take whatever I can get that's not particularly detrimental, most of my Pokémon have neutral natures. :P
Team Rocket Classic
[Team Rocket]] is brilliant! Imo, the teams have gotten worse and worse over the years. Team Rocket are like the Mafia, and I also really liked the design for the TR Grunt in FireRed and LeafGreen. When my friends and I played Pokémon when I was like 10, I was always a reformed member of Team Rocket!
Oh, And One More Thing...
Lucadan is a portmanteau of Lucas and Brendan. I know, it's terrible. I wanted to get on to start editing quickly...
