Been a fan since. I hate how kids today have to have their hands held through the game. I had to freaking learn that Onix and Geodude were immune to Thundershock and then I had to grind for a Butterfree. That first gym badge was the sweetest victory ever, and I haven't had a more satisfying win than that. Kids need to be taught to just go for it and learn.
