Well set back and enjoy the story.
When I was younger I got a Gameboy at some point in my life (Christmas or Birthday? cant remember.) And my first game was Pokemon Red. I never liked the way it looked, but eventually it grew addicting and I loved it. Later on, I got Pokemon Leafgreen, which introduced a bunch of Pokemon and much better graphics so I fell in love with it. I eventually grew tired of it, though, andlater got Pokemon Emerald, which I orginially thought "was to odd" to play and I disliked it. Well, my friend told me about the stuff you can do in Emerald and it seemed unreal; so I tried it out and surely enough I liked it.
A good 5 or so years later I got my DS Lite and Pokemon Diamond. it was good, and the Pokemon were nice, but I wanted something more. I got Platinum, fell in love, and then of course got Gen 5 blah blah blah.
And here I am.
