Gold was my first ever Pokémon video game to play as a child. So, the game holds a lot of nostalgia for me ❣️. As such I was excited to get both Crystal and Heart Gold as soon as they were released. At the time I was simply curious to see how the game had … Read more

I have always thought that Pokémon Ruby, Saphire, and Emerald had the most unique storyline in the game series. This is especially true for Pokémon Emerald where Groudon (Ruby’s mascot) and Kyogre (Sapphire’s mascot) were pitted against each other in the game. It would have been an epic battle, in my opinion, if Rayquaza didn’t … Read more

Pokémon Red and Gold were among the first two games in the series, so, I’m sure they hold a sort of nostalgia for those of us who played them as kids😊. I personally, started with Pokémon Gold, because it was among the recent releases at the time, but went back to play Pokémon Red later. … Read more

I remember when FireRed and LeafGreen came out, Emerald’s release wasn’t so far off. But I was already dead set on getting both FireRed and LeafGreen. Unfortunately, that meant that I wasn’t able to get Emerald when it was finally released😢. Because of that, I always wondered whether I missed out by not getting the … Read more

Despite my love for Pokémon, I had to take a small break from it, because life got in the way. But it didn’t take long before I was back to my favorite hobby. I was excited to find that Pokémon had done a remake of the iconic Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. In addition to that, … Read more

By the time the third generation of Pokémon games was being released, I was a full fledge fan of the franchise. I was even lucky enough to get both copies of Ruby and Sapphire, thanks to my loving and doting parents. I was, unfortunately, unable to play the Emerald version as soon as it was … Read more

I remember playing Pokémon Diamond as a child and utterly enjoyed it. I can safely say the Gen IV release was among the best in the series, and when Platinum came along, it made the game even better. Being the first remake of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Platinum was an almost perfect solution to most … Read more

Although I played both Ruby and Sapphire as a child, I wasn’t able to play Emerald, as well as the remakes, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. What can I say, at the time other remakes like FireRed and LeafGreen along with newer generations like X and Y seemed more enticing at the time. Eventually, though, … Read more
