I've been a fan of Pokémon for a long time, but I feel like I need to just stop or take a breather. So far in the year 2009 many games have been released or will be released: [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]], [[Pokémon Platinum Version]], [[Melee! Pokémon Scramble]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)]], and [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions]]. It's asinine for me to try and keep up with so many releases at once when school, other games and activities compete for my attention. The straw finally broke as I was breeding my starters and exclusives on my Diamond cart to send to Platinum. I have over 40 eggs in storage that I would have to send over to get Pokédex data for so I would have to catch 40 useless trade fodder to get them. Once SoulSilver comes out I would have to do the same thing to complete the game and that's out of the question.
==Pokémon Red and Blue==
In 1998 I got a blue [[Game Boy Color]] and a copy of {{g|Blue}} for Christmas; this started an interesting ride through the franchise. {{g|Blue}} wasn't my first run-in with the franchise, it was in a local Target where I saw an advertisement in a copy of Disney Adventures where there were a plethora of [[Pokémon]] under a gigantic net. The first one to catch my eye was {{p|Pidgeot}} which made me interested in the game because it was "an awesome bird".
 
I obtained all 151 [[Pokémon]] in the Kanto [[Pokédex]] legitimately. This is the only time I have ever completed the National Dex.
 
==Pokémon Gold and Silver==
This was a gift from my grandparents very my birthday. There isn't too much history with this game, only the fact that it was my last [[Pokémon]] game until {{g|Mystery Dungeon|Red Rescue Team}}. This game also harbored my only shiny [[Pokémon]], the shiny {{p|Gyarados}} from the [[Lake of Rage]].
 
After the main hype of the game died down, I packed up my [[Game Boy Color|Game Boy]] and gave it and my two games to my neighbor's younger son. It took me six whole years to even glance at the franchise again, but that day did come.
 
==Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team==
This was an odd ball. The only other [[Pokémon]] spin-off games I knew that weren't {{g|Stadium}} was {{g|Pinball}}. I had started to frequent a video game site that was a little keen on the [[Pokémon]] franchise and they had caught wind of a new game being released where you actually played as a [[Pokémon]]. To tell you the truth, I was a little intrigued by the thought of playing a Pokémon instead of being the [[Pokémon Trainer]] that was used in the normal games.
 
I did emulate [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon|Red Rescue Team]], and I enjoyed it. It was a little strange to start playing a game franchise that I enjoyed from my childhood, but I beat it a few times and had a decent experience. It took a while to learn all the new [[Pokémon]] that I missed from the [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire|third generation]] though.
 
==Pokémon Diamond and Pearl==
I picked this game up along with a [[Nintendo DS]] after watching a few of Marriland's battles on YouTube. I figured since it had online battles, I'd be able to find more people to fight than just people in my community. While I was disappointed that there was no "random battle" option like many online fighting of first-person shooter games had, the online still wasn't bad.


Overall [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond]] was a decent re-introduction into the main games of the franchise. It suffered because of my lack of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire|third generation game]] to transfer [[Pokémon]] from, but it didn't detract from it too much.  
If Game Freak would release games every two years or so I might be able to keep up, but with such an insane amount of monsters to catch and train and to have to do it again every year is crazy. It's nice to see so many people like this type of game play and training, competitive battling, etc, but I don't think it's for my anymore, or just right now.


==Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time==
I wish the best of luck to Bulbapedia and the rest of the Pokémon community. I had fun for eleven years, but it had to end sometime. If I ever feel the urge to come back, I know enough to get myself back in the game.


Even though this is another game from the fourth generation, it deserves a special mention in the Pokémon history part of my user page. After my decent experience with [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon|Red Rescue Team]], I decided I might as well buy the sequel, [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time]]. I heard about it about a week before release and bought it on a whim. On April 20, 2008 after coming home I started to play it... 17 hours later I put my [[Nintendo DS]] down to go to sleep. I loved the story and game play so much that Pokémon became a borderline obsession for a few months afterward.
Farewell,


After completing the main story six times, it has gone down as my favorite game of all time. Early in 2009 I found a new copy of [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team]] so I could finally have the real cartridge for [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2|Explorers of Time]]'s predecessor.

Departing from the Pokémon franchise

I've been a fan of Pokémon for a long time, but I feel like I need to just stop or take a breather. So far in the year 2009 many games have been released or will be released: Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, Pokémon Platinum Version, Melee! Pokémon Scramble, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare), and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions. It's asinine for me to try and keep up with so many releases at once when school, other games and activities compete for my attention. The straw finally broke as I was breeding my starters and exclusives on my Diamond cart to send to Platinum. I have over 40 eggs in storage that I would have to send over to get Pokédex data for so I would have to catch 40 useless trade fodder to get them. Once SoulSilver comes out I would have to do the same thing to complete the game and that's out of the question.

If Game Freak would release games every two years or so I might be able to keep up, but with such an insane amount of monsters to catch and train and to have to do it again every year is crazy. It's nice to see so many people like this type of game play and training, competitive battling, etc, but I don't think it's for my anymore, or just right now.

I wish the best of luck to Bulbapedia and the rest of the Pokémon community. I had fun for eleven years, but it had to end sometime. If I ever feel the urge to come back, I know enough to get myself back in the game.

Farewell,

Ryuartyi
