>avidly watched the first two seasons of the animated series as a kiddo, had a childhood crush on Ash>a 12 year-old boy once showed me his copy of Gold at a daycare, thought maybe I could tell what his egg was since the show had eggs colored like the baby pokemon. It turned out to be the Togepi egg.>played Yellow once at a different daycare when I was 9 since a 4 year old boy couldn't figure out how to get to Cerulean from the Route 4 grass and handed his GBC to me for help. I caught him an Abra and accidentally named it "Abba".>got a GBA with Ruby when I was 10, have been playing the core games since.Really feels like the series has been steadily going downhill but I'm 23 now and maybe it's just hard to let go.
