I was on board for Pokemon when it first came to the US! I'd gotten an issue of Nintendo Power because it had.... some Mario game in it maybe? I was not big into video games as a little kid. Anyway, they had a sneak peek of this new Pokemon thing that was just coming out, and I FELL IN LOVE IMMEDIATELY.
I got Blue version on that big clunky grey gameboy with the green-pixel screen, and my starter was Bulbasaur. :> I was really into Gold/Silver as well, but I fell off the boat after that until X/Y (which I played blind with a friend for a while), and then my bro surprised me with an old Yellow cartridge and an old Gameboy colour when I started getting really into glitching! THATS MY POKEMON STORY
omg thank you! : D
Ahhhh THANK YOU so much!! I freaking love female symbol, it's 80' tall, has a black glitch screen that obscures anything around it from view (including, say, your moves, if you send one into battle) and is known for a cry that may or may not sometimes be an endless loop!! So basically it's a towering being of shifting red lights shrouded in impenetrable darkness that, once you hear its maddening, unending song, you cannot turn away! THAT'S JUST, THAT'S AN ACTUAL HORROR MONSTER
