And whats this 403 pokemon crap. 151 is the real number. No more, no less. As soon as they added more, I was pissed.

missingno isnt a pokemon, its a glitch, so I dont count "it" as a real pokemon. I did have mew though.

I had mew. He could learn any ability so some idiot decided to give him cut, ride and fly before trading him. Those being the attacks you can never get rid of.
I always picked Squirtle cause he was so damn cute.

Since you cant rename pokemon that have been traded to you, and I was the only kid at my elementary school that could get as many mews as he wanted/ had a transfer cable, so I'd name them things like "studmuffin" before trading them. Bugged the crap out of others, and I'd just laugh at them.

Naw we're cool. He was just always the cool kid, even when we went to highschool. We're cool though, I've known him since the day he was born (4 days after me) but after we were in elementry school, we stopped hanging out completely. Still dont, but if we run into each other, we'll chat. We've both been off at school, doing the whole growing up thing.

I have blue and red, and my cards. Blue and red were the only ones that counted, the rest were like "omg, add more pokemons to get more moneyz!"
I even remember the first set of cards I bought. It was in the Vancouver International Airport as a kid. I got a holographic chancey as my rare.

My kid was into pokemon as well, I bought the starter kits when they came out, I still have 1 in the original packaging and cellophane, and some cards, I'll see if I can find them later and avoid the massive shens fest.

i never got into pokemon, Brian Fellows, thats kinda funny. one time for kicks and giggles, i changed some presidents article, i copied the stuff that was real, and saved on my puter, then wrote that he was a drug addicted, slave owning, pimpmasta, one of the old presidents, and like 2 days later, i fixed it, it was funny
