After losing interest in pokemon for about 10 years (When the new games came out, I only got interested in the games and sometimes online rants, but even that didn't last long) I am finally interested in pokemon again. Everything related to pokemon. I may have been interested in the games like X and Y when they came out, but after I finished the game, I'd drop it. But now I am playing it occasionally again, watching the anime, wanting to collect pokemon cards and the toys. My obsession is coming back and it feels good! I haven't been this obsessed with Pokemon in a long time!
How long have you been into pokemon?

You mean that Trading Card Game? Eh, I'd rather not. I'd prefer collecting the actual cards. I used to have a stash of the EXs and Level Xs, but my house got flooded out and they're gone now... ;n;

I've been into Pokemon since it first started being broadcast on local channels, back when I was in 2nd grade (1999). My first memory of it was the advertisements on the local channel for a "what's your favorite pokemon" vote (I remember Meowth kept popping in going "it's me!"); that was also one of my first times using the internet, after watching a bunch of it and then going to vote for my favorites. My class was hooked; we'd trade the cards at recess (till they were banned) and talk about it constantly, and our teacher had to ban us using Pokemon in our school projects (for instance I remember that a school project was the first time I ever wrote fanfiction, lol - we were assigned to write a winter story, so I wrote one about me battling and capturing a Charmander near a frozen lake.) Around that time absolutely everyone - not just at school but in general - being so obsessed with it that it was really hard to find Pokemon cards in the store; they were just continually sold out everywhere for the longest time.
I watched the anime up to the Johto arc, though I've started picking it up again, somewhere in the Orange Islands arc last I remember watching. And I've kept up-to-date with the main-series games, although I didn't play as much 5th and 6th gen (Black fell out of my pocket on my college campus so I never finished it or even bought Black/White2, also never finished X.)

I've been into Pokemon for... almost ten years? I didn't get my first game until I was ten. I'll get obsessed every so often, but then I'll get into something else and just enjoy it casually (I'm only ever obsessed with one thing at a time). I might get obsessed with Pokemon again when Sun and Moon come out, but maybe not.

Its really funny how i got into pokemon.
back when i was a wee little person, I saw my first episode of pokemon. It was the one in the johto series with all the eeveelutions. I fell absolutely in love with Espeon, and I watched a few more episodes until my parents found out and blocked the channel. But for years I kept roleplaying with myself having an imaginary espeon that followed me around. And one fateful day in 2005, I got my first pokemon game: Emerald. I fell in love all over again and I've been playing the games ever since.

I've been obsessed with Pokemon ever since I got my first game, FireRed.
I'm so excited for Sun/Moon!

I love Pokemon. One year in elementary it was really popular, so I collected SOOOO many cards. I already liked it, so I was just expanding my collection. I still have the 2 inch binder on my shelf with a few of those tin boxes which are full to accompany it. There was this set of thick collectible 'cards' that were gold plated and I decided to collect all of them. I have each but mewtwo. I also have a little collection of tiny Pokemon figures. Not the ones that you find at the store, they are weird. I bought some at comic con and some who knows where they came from.
I also have this precious little oddish doll that sits on my desk. He came in a poke ball key chain so...
Some honorable card mentions I have: All the EX and Mega cards, ancient mew, some Charizard card that is apparently special, the espIon energy card, and the complete eeveeloution collection.
I had a DSI game once, but it wasn't very good. It wasn't very expensive though. Also the pikachu hat. Don't forget about him.
