I think mine is either the abra line because they can teleport. But then there is the muscly machop line. And then there is Dragonite... Aurgh. Gen 1 in the 90's was my first game.

Haunter is my favourite, my first pokemon game was gold. I had friends with blue red and yellow but we were to poor when i was younger and only got a game boy when they were cheap as the advanced had come out.

It was Christmas day and my mum bought my sister and I gameboy colours, she got a harry potter game and i got spyro the dragon for GBA.

No one in my family understood why my game was so small and didn't fit, they were after all both game boy games. Was a really shitty Christmas with a gameboy I couldn't play whilr my sister had a greay time. The next day we went to the shops and i saw the pokemon game and was set on kt from the cartoons.

Then my older sister made me name my character Ash and i had to play it her way until her birthday the next july when she got silver and i was finally able to play for myself

Ah, memories of being a Centrelink kid in the 90's. I was lucky enough to have an older brother who'd saved up a bit of money, found a Gameboy at Cash Converters going cheap, and he didn't mind me using it.

We had a Game Gear, too, because we won one from a game rental store that had a free raffle as part of it's grand opening, and we were the only ones who showed up!
