- around age 5 or 6
- Have bought every game to date (even though some are older than me) and play them everyday.
-My best friend at high school I met because of playing pokemon. we're still friends to this day.

>High school. downloaded out of curiosity and never stopped
>my handheld purchases are guided by Pokemon almost exclusively. also merch
>not because of it but some friends because of /vp/
>It would be a bit duller, I wouldn't have learned some crafts too

When I was a kid, I was home alone a lot and didnt have many friends so it helped me feel better.

I dont show much of my autism in public, but I browse a pokemon board all day so

I have, a lot of close friends and girlfriends. Sadly though friends forget and break ups happen

A normie or something

Charizard just because he was my first pokemon ever and it sticks with me.

>7 years old
>bought one of every game pair since r/s, hundreds of hours total, maybe even a thousand
>Not really anyone significant but a few small friends
>I would've killed myself, I live for the anticipation of the next game. (But seriously, my life would suck, Pokemon is a passion of mine)
>Rotom, it was one of the coolest pokemon in my first game, Platinum, even having it's own insert in the case advertising the event that gave it it's forms. Even if it was weak because i had no idea how ds wifi worked and couldn't get the event, the design and secrecy of it made me love it

>At what part of your life did Pokemon become important to you and why?

>be 5 yo me
>california heatstroke est 1998
>mom puts me to bed
>we get comfy and go through the TV guide
>find "Ash Catches a Pokemon!"
>instantly become ashfag for life due to heatstroke and lack of father figure, most likely
>ash becomes role model for empathy and perseverance, also pokemon are cool

>How much does Pokemon influence your life and to what extent?

A whole lot actually, most of my hobbies are centered around pokemon, and I don't like to become close with people who don't have pokemon as a part of their lives too.

>Have you met anyone significant in your life because of Pokemon? If you have, who are they and what do they mean to you?

I met my best friend through playing pokemon. She helped me through a major depression, I'm not sure I would of been able to make it through without her.

>If Pokemon didn't exist how different would your life be?

Its hard to imagine myself as someone who has never heard of pokemon because its been in my life so long. I probably would of been able to get along with my peers a lot easier because I wouldn't have given off such an obsessed weirdo vibe.

>Who is your favorite Pokemon, and what does this Pokemon mean to you?

Zangoose has always been my favorite. I like Zangoose because it looks strong like it could protect me, and cute like a cat/ferret.

- It's not important to me. It's a game. One that I enjoy, and spend a lot of time with, but I don't consider it "important" to me. It's my favorite video game series, but in the big picture, that's just not such an important thing.
- Not at all, I don't think.
- No.
- Not very. I'd probably just be playing other games, and probably spending less time on 4chan.
- Don't know. I have a few I'd consider "favorites." They don't really mean anything other than "that's a cool Pokemon."

I think I'm too "normie" for this thread.

I ward off suicidal thoughts to play the new games too.

Are you excited about the new rotomdex?
