I was 9 when the anime first aired in the US, in 1998, and was hooked almost immediately. I got a GameBoy Color and Pokemon Red for Christmas, along with enough money to go buy Pokemon Blue the day after. I’ve purchased and played at least one game from every generation since - one of my favorite collections! I’m actually working on figuring out how best to introduce my son to the game, now - I want to play through some iteration of every generation with him if I can manage it.
