Happy 20th anniversary, Pokemon!
Man, what a wild ride it's been; trying to very best, like no one ever was...
Catching, training, battling... over the course of 20+ years, and over a decade of many consoles. I haven't stopped, and neither have you! And it keeps going, with Sun & Moon, and the way to play even continues to evolve; with Pokemon GO. What a time to be alive, and a trainer!
Kinda late to the party, but not missing a beat; I wanna share a few of my fave memories from the span of each generation.
Gen 1 - Beating Blue for the first time, and catching Mewtwo; thinking I was top dog, and challenging everyone. I got my butt handed to me, after learning that Mewtwo IS strong, but not the strongest Pokemon ever. A harsh lesson, but had fun, either way. Another fave memory from this gen, is leveling up my Bulbasaur to 100, and evolving it to Venusaur, totally decimating the for Elite 4 Leader; Loriel!
Gen 2 - Not playing the originals; Gold/Silver/Crystal, I came into gen 2 a bit later on, once HeartGold and SoulSilver were released. The Pokewalker was my fave thing to use, and loved the fact that it effected the Pokemon that you placed into it. You could even catch Pokemon within the Pokewalker, itself! Technology is AMAZING!
Gen 3 - I loved EVERYTHING there was about Ruby/Sapphire; me having Sapphire, minus the contests. Then, when the remake came along, I fell in love with the Battle Frontier!
Gen 4 - My fave generation, and the one that got me into online competitive battling. some of my fave memories from here included trying to download all the event Pokemon, creating Poffin with one of my friends online, to help with my contest runs, of course online battling.
Gen 5 - Not too many favorite memories here, but I DID love exploring Castelia City; as it's inspired by New York. Some of the Pokemon had really interesting designs; some weird, some cool, but it was good times.
Gen 6 - And lastly; Gen 6 is when Pokemon embraced fully 3D-powered goodness! Fave moments include experiencing all the online features via the PSS, enjoying playing with my Pokemon through Pokemon-Amie, and seeing the after effects of doing such. The BGM of the many towns and cities were awesome, and so were some of the battle themes.
In closing, who would've thought this series would be so inspirational to trainers of all ages; big or small, or otherwise. I had no clue, but one things for certain...I'll be catchin' 'em all for as long as I live!
Thanks for being there with me, Pokémon , and I hope we get to celebrate another 20 years!
TRAIN ON!

Finally, the last I wanted to say is: And what about Gen 7? Since we know thar Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon is confirmed, I would like to know the opinions of the people about this new Gen. Also about Pokemon GO that seems really nice. 100% sure that I'll buy what is needed to use the app on my phone/iPod. And that I'll buy Gen 7 games too.
Battle Mansion ain't got NOTHING on the Battle Frontier. I love both Emerald's and Platinum's. They're a pain to beat, but I still loved them all the same lol
Archie's my main dude, from Gen 3, and Kyogre's my all-time fave legendary Pokemon; second to Darkrai.
Not much is known about Gen 7; other than the fact that there IS a Gen 7 on the way, and the games' names are Sun and Moon. And only one of the Pokemon were revealed, somewhat: a flying-type, but I'm sure as the months go by, we'll get tidbits here and there
And GO is gonna be awesome! Pretty much Pokewalker on steroids
No but seriously, it's the reverse for me. Battle Mansion was boring for me, and I missed the challenge of the Battle Frontier
Also love Power Rangers xP
