I have become reobsessed with Pokemon. I don't know when it exactly started. I always enjoyed the games as a child. In fact, I still remember my original Yellow team, that was until I lost it... I played Gold several times (never beating it unfortunately. I could now, I'm just easily distracted). I played my brother's copy of Ruby mostly through, though I got easily frustrated and never quite finished.
The re-obsession began 2 summers ago when on a long road trip I restarted my Gold (the only time I restarted a game). It was so fun to replay that game.
Then recently, my boyfriend, came back from a trip to Japan (I am SO jealous, I don't want to talk about it...) and gave me a piplup hood (Isn't it soo cute?!)
Just imagine it as a hood, you know subtract the body and leave a human head sized hole for my face.
Anyway, then he gave me a gameboy advanced emulator for my laptop and he gave me Pokemon Leaf Green. I am so glad I decided to put it on the part of my computerI can't access at school, otherwise I'd be playing it all day. I just miss the old games.
SO really, this has absolutely no point. Other than.....I love Pokemon. Plain, simple, unashamed.
Pokemon is my favorite RPG. It is sophisticated in its simplicity. It is as timeless your ten-year old protagonist. It may add characters and mosters that don't fit earlier continuity, or aren't as good as before, but you continue to come back. Why? Because, you gotta catch 'em all!
