HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKÉMON PLAYERS?
 
SO, I'm stoked for Pokemon HG/SS, as I'm sure many of you are since the G/S/C games were arguably the best of the series.
However, by the time the games come out, i'll be 19.. .. .. It's Nintendo's fault.. I've been hooked since R/B/Y!
I'm just curious.. how old are you Pokemon lovers? How old were you when you started playing, and what generation did you start with?
:charizard:

Edit by Cat333Pokémon: When converting forum software, somehow all the voters were shifted to the wrong option. If you look at who voted for what, it may be incorrect!

I think I'm one of the younger people, but I don't know. I'm 14 and will be 15 in ten days :)

I started at RBY, but from like '98, '99, somewhere there.

EDIT: I'm now 19, 20 in 7 months.
I've played pokemon since it came out in 1996, that would have made me 5 years old. :P

I'm 13, and I've played every Pokémon game (not all spin-offs). But, not in their time and stuff!

Re: HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKEMON PLAYERS?
 
I will randomly state that I am 8 years of age. Woo. How fun that would be, to be young once more. [And get away with things.]

§ethi Xzon August 18, 2009 06:57:44 PM

Re: HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKEMON PLAYERS?
 
If you didn't read that CORRECTLY, I'm obviously not eight years of age, that would be quite improbable.

Re: HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKEMON PLAYERS?
 
Indeed. :luidance: I'm 14 and I've been playing since Red, Blue, and Yellow. They initially belonged to my older siblings so I didn't start playing until, say, 2001, but I watched the anime before that. :)

Re: HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKEMON PLAYERS?
 
I'm 12.

I could comprehend the anime at age 4.
The games at 6.
I was born the same year R/B/Y came out in the US.
Therefore, I was forced to start playing at R/S/E.
I own at least one game from each Generation. I own all of Gen. III, and, if I wouldn't have given my copy of Pearl to my sister, and she hadn't lost it, I'd have all of Gen. V that was released in America thus far.

I've been playing the games since I was 3. Who needs to read! It's like trying to play the Japanese HG/SS.
Lol, only 13 and importing from Japan!

I'm 13 as of september 25 and I watched the anime when I was 2 (my friends say I'm a pokemon prodigy just because I was 3 when I started playing yellow.) Anyways I have every game except the ROMs an N64 and the japenese games and the uncommon ones like the minis etc..

Re: HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKEMON PLAYERS?
 
Why won't my Pokémon Red Version save my data? I go to save and it promises that it saves, and when it's done saving, I turn the game off. An hour later, I turn it back on, and my data isn't there!

Darkrai October 25, 2009 08:20:44 AM

Re: HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKEMON PLAYERS?
 
just turned 16, 2 weeks ago.

the game won't save because the cartidge's battery is dead. You might have to try to get a new one or get another red version that works. Its pretty rare to find old games with the battery still working nowadays. At least my crystal version works just fine! :D

Sunny October 25, 2009 02:43:57 PM

Okay, so that must mean the other 4 Red Versions I had, had a dead battery =O Thanks for the suggestions.

Is it because there are so many people that age that (still) love pokemon?

Maybe. It's definitely not a bad thing though!

LiteTheIronMan November 21, 2009 09:45:45 PM

Re: HOW OLD ARE YOU, POKEMON PLAYERS?
 
I suppose it's cuz many people 'round Cat/Yoshi/Green's age were the first people back then to be playing Pokemon extensively. There are exceptions of course- I've been playing since RB(G)Y and I'm 14.

Luxray13579 November 21, 2009 09:49:08 PM

Maybe the screen moved a bit while you were selecting?

PokeRemixStudio January 3, 2010 05:53:14 PM

Well, I don't even remember voting in the poll, and I came in here only to find that I had already voted... and for the wrong selection, too.

Cat333Pokémon January 4, 2010 12:13:53 AM

The list of voters is shifted (probably a fault of the move). However, the actual votes are correct.

Never too old.
 
I'm 18 and will probably always play Pokemon. Been a fan since I was 9 and my family doesn't understand why I still love the little creatures.

Turning 19 this March 27th, and yes I am asking for Soulsilver for my birthday.

Course, I'm trying to get a PS3 too, but that's another topic lol.

Hah, as of now, 18 year olds are tied with both 12-13 and 14-15 year olds.

Alakazamaster January 8, 2010 12:06:09 PM

I'm 14, and I first started playing Yellow when my brother gave it to me. He must have started playing pokemon a bit late, because he gave it to me when he got blue for his birthday. I was maybe 6 then? Im not sure.
