Why did you start playing POKEMON?

Hello. I'm just curious about our communities stories about why we started playing/collecting Pokémon.

My nephew had so many Pokemon cards and it bothered me that he didn't know how to play so I started learning during Brilliant Stars. He can play now and I'm hoping he's teaching his friends.

What's everyone's beginning Pokemon story?

    Hi


    I have been playing for less than a month, and I started to play with my son (no one knew how to play)

    Well, I started when the game first came out in the 90s. I was in love with the Anime and the video games. Once they released the TCG, I quickly learned how to play and have been playing off and on since.


    Fast forward to the present: I think I’m going to be in it for the long haul now. I don’t intend to quit, unless The Pokemon Group ends up stopping (which I doubt, look at Disney, LOL).


    That being said…if you have the app, friend me and let’s play a match or two. 😊
