>First Pokemon game I got was Red, got Blue not long after and immediately got Yellow.
Those were the days, when you could eat, drink, shit, and worship Pokemon basically everywhere you went.
>Bought Japanese Silver off of a friend first, then preordered Silver and later got Gold
I was honestly disappointed in both the lack of challenge throughout most of Gold/Silver and how strange yet dull most of the 2nd gen designs were. Various other story elements bugged me as well. Also fuck those dogs and introducing the fleeing legendary mechanic, hated them so much I avoided Crystal to my detriment.
>skipped R/S and barely got into Emerald, later got FR and LG
Being unable to transfer my Pokemon from gens 1/2 was a major turnoff, and the games played slow as well so I nearly lost interest until Emerald came along. This gen had some great designs for both humans and Pokemon (excluding the legendary toys) and Battle Frontier was a blast. FR/LG were alright.
>Bought Diamond and SS while my brother bought Pearl and HG to trade with each other
Slowest gen by far, near unplayable when revisiting. Solid enough designs again and the special/physical move changes made many Pokes usable which was great. Having your Poke follow you in SS/HG was neat but paled in comparison to Yellow's Pikachu and biking it was a necessity for the games' slow pace anyways. Battle Frontier was again great though.
>Again, me and my bro paired off and each bough opposing versions. Went Black and then White 2
Fantastic gen, even if the Poke designs are very hit-and-miss (humans were all great). Probably the fastest playing gen in the series, nice animations before the transition to 3D, triple and rotation battles were infinitely more fun than shitty doubles... really got me back into Pokemon after the previous boring slog.

About this time I started to lose interest in the games. Slower than gen 5 and had performance issues. Never got into the gen.

lol good human designs for porn I guess.
