The Last Poster Wins! [v21]

PXR is like a drug that won't let go.

But it's a good drug! The happy kind that makes everything better again. XD

Really, I joined the community when I was 21 back in 2003 and wheeeeee, still here. I'm 34 now, still into crazy battling pocket monsters and electric rodents and flying squirrels! This is insanity!

Amen

Haha I joined the Pokémon community when I was 6 and even though I didn't join the online community until five or six years ago, I'm still here like twelve years later.

I got into Pokemon when I was 17. Kind of crazy to think it all just started with an innocent game and became a completely life-changing experience for the better. XD

I got into Pokemon when it first came to the States, i believe i was 6. When the internet started booming, i browsed all the Pokemon related stuff. Didn't really join a forum, i lurked most of them though.

I got accused of hacking the hax in netplay one time, though I don't even know how to command a firewall...

I mean Pokémon came to the states the year I was born so I couldn't start playing for a while

Originally, I was extremely skeptical about Pokémon when I first saw it. It was originally compared to Tamagotchi in the wake of a virtual pet craze that had left a really bad taste in my mouth (Tamagotchis started as a cute idea, and they rapidly became annoying). So I was like "yeah, no more virtual pets for me, thank you very much." I wasn't crazy at all about Ash when I first saw him (I'm still not) so the anime didn't sell me on the whole idea either. Then one of my brother's friends suggested "hey, you should get a Pokémon game with your brother so we can play together!" And after my brother did a load of things trying to get me into it, I was like "oh fine, guess I'll try it for a little while."

And a "little while" ended up becoming 16 years and still going on strong. I figure if I haven't left it by now, I'll probably end up sticking with it.

To quote Shofu

"I don't give a **** if I'm 87, playing Pokemon til the death bed"

And if they have Pokemon in Heaven, I'm going to pick up from where I left off and keep going from there. XD

[Chakramaster]

I started playing Pokémon the day it hit the States as well. I think I was 7 or 8? I forget which xD

Oh Pokémon in Heaven? It's probably so much more than that up there. More than any of us can dream of.
