I couldn't even read properly when I got the game but I was madly in love with the anime and I saw on these magazine that actually pokémon was a game (the anime was really popular in Italy but not the games, or at least where I lived nobody of my friends played pokemon) I basically obsessed my mother until she got me the game.

>gen I one, I don't remember what one exactly
I have two great memories but I don't know what one came before
The fact is that I played them for first time at 2001 or so, but watched the anime until GS before first pokemon game.
Also first own game was Ruby on 2004 Christmas, I fucking went in tears because first pokemon game, and then when my mother surprised me again with Omega Ruby... Well, guess what happened.

My dad picked it up when he was working overseas and told me all the kids loved it and that I probably would too
It inspired me to ask my dad to teach me moonrunes and sparked what has become a lifelong obsession

I've played every game as I've grown up, except Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and ORAS has reinforced how right I was not to.

I was going to get Crystal so I could play with my friends in school but the lady at Walmart was telling me "Oh no you HAVE to get this one, it's newer and better!". So I got it without knowing that gen 1/2 and 3 weren't compatible and that was that. My mom and I moved shortly after anyway so I guess it doesn't really matter.
>>24669039

People lead different lives and have different memory capabilities, I guess.
I'm 18, and it baffles me that it's entirely possible that there are people on this board that don't know what a VHS is, or weren't even into Pokemon during the time where it was still really huge.

If you're 18 then that means you were born in 1997~ you werent coherent and capable of playing video games until like 5-6 i would say on average. That puts you to the year 2002-2003. The gameboy advance had been out for 2 years already. It's simply not possible for someone whos 18 to have played red/blue under natural circumstances unless your older brother gave it to you.

What exactly constitutes as "natural circumstances"? I suppose you aren't far off, My brother had Red, sister had blue, so I got Yellow. Played it then, then, right around Pokemon 2000, got Crystal when they got Gold and Silver.
Why couldn't I have been playing games at 3 or 4?

I remember being in K-Mart when I was like four or five and choosing a red Gameboy Pocket over a Gameboy Color because the latter was more expensive. I also remember my mom getting me out of the room you start in. God damn, I loved the shit out of that game. The only other game I enjoyed as much was White version and it was because I went in it blind.

Got Blue and a Gameboy Color for my birthday. Think I was 7. Been playing every gen since.
I remember I wanted Green version for Bulbasaur, but settled for Blue because it was closer in color to Green than Red was.
The cashier guy talked to my mom about how you need both games to catch 'em all and how that was a brilliant marketing strategy. I just wanted him to shut up and give me my game.
Took me 20 minutes to get out of my house in Pallet Town. By the time I got Bulbasaur it was bed time.

Red on Gameboy Color. I still remember the disappointment when I saw the player character shrink down and realizing those were going to be the graphics for the rest of the game.

I got Ruby, but that was about the time my friends grew out of pokemon so I lost mad interest as well. I didn't even finish that game.
Just got Pokemon Y last year for Christmas and got back into it. Nostalgia makes it enjoyable for me still.
