WAIT ACTUALLY I think I might have played the very, very first one on Game Boy the FEW times I stole it from my brother. The memories! They are so far away.
Full-time child care (uh, not my, uh, child) led me to be an expert in the original pokemon. Here, 7 years later, I still remember that Vulpix was my favourite because he was cute.
I never collected them all. D: But then again, I think I played like 5min on the Gameboy anyway. I was introduced to the trading cards by the kids I took care of. And they only traded on the basis of cuteness.
Cause MAN! I still love that series! I used to be into the whole shebang -- video games, trading cards (still have my collection >.> ), manga, anime. When I was in middle school I'd get up all by myself at 6am every weekday to watch that show, back before it got all primetime on me. Man! Dragonball Z, Sailor Moon, and Pokemon -- the most stereotypical early anime trifecta ever. That was me.
OH MY GOD. When I was in high school my best friend and i would come in early with coffee and breakfast, and sit in our Math classroom with the Math teacher, watch Pokemon, eat breakfast, and grade homeworks for extra credit. it was like, a highlight of high school.
I wouldn't necessarily say I knwo a lot about Pokemon! But i used to be able to draw all of them on command for my (well, not my, specifically) children!

Just imagine. At the very moment you were watching Pokemon with your math teacher, I was doing it too. BONDING THROUGH TIME AND SPACE.
Clearly I'm crazy today.
Anyway, that was such fun times. I used to draw them all the damn time.
The sad part?
I HAVE A TREMENDOUS POKEMON FUTUREFIC PLANNED XD
