This is all so confusing yet exciting to me.

I didn't think my one could get a more gay sounding name than Jigglypuff. Of course I was wrong.

I'm so sad Burke's character didn't get the rainbow badge. Also, I'm so confused by everything. They evolve? I think I might need to do some research.

I'm so sad Burke's character didn't get the rainbow badge. Also, I'm so confused by everything. They evolve? I think I might need to do some research.  The whole point is to be the best Pokémon trainer in the region, and you do so by defeating 8 Gym Leaders who specialize in a specific Pokémon type, and all Pokémon are stronger and weaker to certain types ( Water > Fire, Electric > Water, etc.). That's why I said in the beginning that it was important for us to choose different types so our team would be balanced. And once you defeat those 8 Gym Leaders, you're eligible to challenge the Elite Four and then the reigning Pokémon Champion. And there are other elements sprinkled in so it isn't that straight forward, like this evil organization called Team Rocket, and a rival from your hometown who starts out on his Pokémon journey at the same time as you; both of whom you battle several times throughout the game. And yasss, they evolve and get more powerful and learn new moves as you level them up in battle. That's why I posted their stats at level 5 so we can see how dramatically they grow by the end of the game. Basically, it's dog fighting on a much, much grander scale.  |

I have the game saved on my computer and the files are very small, in case anyone wants me to e-mail it to them.  |

What made Pokemon super popular at first? The TV show or the trading cards?
I remember coming home from school one day with my friend. We got off the bus and he started sprinting like a maniac. I shouted and asked what the hell he was doing and he was like, "I have to get home before Pokemon starts."

For me it was the trading cards. My friends were into it and I thought a couple of them looked cool, so they gave them to me. Then I got into the anime and the games, and starting collecting my own cards. And of course the movie came out around the same time. I remember Burger King or McDonald's used to do Pokémon events once a week where kids would come and trade Pokémon. |

Some kids were addicted to those cards. When they were at their peak of popularity you couldn't walk down a hallway in school without some shifty looking characters dealing with them in the corner. I think I even remember hearing about some kids getting beat up and having their cards stolen.  |
