The show was pretty good up and until the Orange Island Arc (and the Johto Arc Pokemon League battles were very good - I finally got to see Gary and Ash duel it out)

The games were good up to gold and silver.

Pokemon brings me back a lot of great memories, and i still have all the cards that i bought when i was little

Omg! i used to be a pokemon fan when i was 6! that's like 11 or twelve years ago XD but still. it just seemed so good XD but now i seeit on tv sometimes and i'm wondering why i even liked it in the first place XD so disappointing. And i used to them pokemon (the animals) were real and i was like, "mommy, where can i get one of THOSE?!" "they don't exist honey, sorry" that just shattered my beliefs XD

I'm forget when i saw POKEMON the 1st time...long time ago...i used to collect the anime and the cards also...now i just keep the in my cupboard...the anime is no longer release in my place so i couldn't continue watching the series...so sad... T_T

Yea i use to be be a big big one, i collected so many cards, i still have em right now, charizard yes the one that does 100 per blast, PWNAGE right there, ditto, 2 raichus, machamp, and a couple other super rare shiny ones, but yea i got so addicted i bought so many packs of them cards, i literally have like a good stack of them that can fill in like a lunch box or something, well the medium sized ones, i also played pokemon on gameboy and everything, i had blue version and my bro had red, afterwards we played green and yellow, the bootleg jap versions of it, then we bought gold and silver, and afterward we sorta lost it, but afterwards i got into it a lil bit again when ruby or saphire came in, there were all these other koo pokemon where you can dive and other stuff and i thought that was really neat, and the best motivation to play the gameboy games is when you catch them legendary pokemon, theyre really a pain in the butt to get, but when you get them, you really feel like uve accomplished something good, like when i had silver, i felt so good when i had lugia, them 3 legendary speed creatures, suikin, raiku, and the enzin i think, and a couple other ones. anyways im all outta it now, come to think about it, ive spent too much dough and time on it, not worth it, but i guess when i was a kid it was too addictive and everything.

Man i was a huge pokemon fan I even bought all the movies and i even play and collect the cards. but what i hate about pokemon is that there's too much pokemon.

Guilty. I watched as much as I could. And whenever I see a pokemon tape I don't have I have to get it for my collection. Can't help it they are so cute. My faves were the pink pokemon, I don't know why cause I'm not big on pink but they kinda stood out to me.

Wah...pokemon!even its long time ago,but till now the animation still keep going!! and theres really some fans still stick with it..i'm one of it!!until now i'm still watching the animes of pokemon from our country's channel!.really nice the animation.

it also make me think bout 4 years ago when i 1st touch with pokemon,by playing the card games..until receive plenty of trophy from the tournaments....really happy.but you really must give up something when the time doesn't permit you to play it.....last year..finally,i give up the card games...but i'm still buying the card for collecting use until now...but not every week already..just once a month...

nice nice,,remind my good memories

Haha i used to be in love with that show when i was younger. i really enjoyed watching the early episodes with the original 150 i was always collecting the cards. until the show started becoming a little more repititive and a bit dull for me and that they were coming out with more pokemon so i gave up trying to collect them all >.<

Oh i love it i wanted to have all the caps but it was imposible for me hehe :c)

Yeah

I have to admit i watched the show, bought the games, and skipped
the whole card thing.

Now i just cant stand those things.

USED to.. man, that stuff gets old after a while..

Pokemon was great in the start but then it started to get anoying and the characters never changed, the pokemons themself became terrifing and they fricked me so i stoped watching it...
now i hate the show i think its dumb and childish

I watched the show too, but i hated it...it's a disaster. It's a very popular anime and all the 6 year kids enjoy it. What it's so great about it?¬_¬

I sort of watched the show in the mornings here when it was on, back in the prime obsession, but I was mainly a nut over the games, even way after the show lost popularity i'de play the GB games lol

Charizard is by far one of the coolest originals >_>
