Biography
Well before we start to say anything, I'm a guy.
Anyway, it's been so long since I started Pokémon, but I still remember it pretty clearly.
I was like, four or five or something, and my sister (who was eight or nine) showed me some Pokémon cards we got from a friend from Japan. They were in Japanese, so we didn't know the names, but my sister thought Meowth was Pikachu... o_O
So we started watching the TV show, and we saw a commercial for Pokémon Pinball, which we wanted so bad! So one day, my dad comes home holding something behind his back. He shows it to us... a Game Boy Color (one of those see-through purple ones). He also got us Pokémon Blue because Pinball was sold out. And frankly, now I'm glad we got Blue instead. :D After that, my sister also got Red and Yellow.
Anyway, after going through all that, they eventually released Pokémon Gold and Silver! My sister got Gold version, which I loved to play. Unfortunately, one day, I accidentally deleted her file. So to stop that from happening again, my dad got me my own Game Boy Color (a blue one) and my mom got me Pokémon Silver. Then my sister grew out of it, and I got Pokémon Crystal. After finishing Crystal, I didn't play Pokémon for about a year.
Then, my friend got Pokémon Ruby, which caused me to get Sapphire, starting a never-ending rivalry of Pokémon (he gets FireRed, I get LeafGreen, he gets Pearl, I get Diamond...). Even if he gives up Pokémon, I am always able to successfully get him to pick it back up (which is what I did with Pearl and probably will do with the release of Platinum).
Then they released FireRed and LeafGreen and Emerald and Diamond and Pearl, and I still like Pokémon, and I'm in high school!
Most people wonder why I still play Pokémon. I play it because it's fun and I met most of my friends through it.
