>>28091847Picked up Gen 1 late. By the time I was really into it, the fad had died down.
Got into Gen 2 as "that guy that still likes Pokemon".
During Gen 3 I was in the "I'm just too mature a 15-year-old to like Pokemon, all the designs are the same, please rape my face" phase.
By the time Diamond/Pearl came out, I had my own money and one random night got Diamond as an impulse buy.
And here we fucking are.
