1) What was your first Pokemon game?
Blue. I remember buying it on import from something called King Kat imports, which died a long time ago but I still have their membership card in the bottom of a drawer.
C ome to think of it, I've bought every game on import. Gold, Ruby and Diamond.
2) Can you remember who your starter was? If so, who?
Yep. Bulbasaur, because FAQs recommended it.
3) Did you ever complete the Pokedex in any games? Which one(s)?
Nope, never. Although I think I came close in GSC.
4) Did you watch the Pokemon anime? Who was your favourite character?
Yes, but any episode after they find the Togepi egg does not exist. Well, the characters do. I liked Adventures more. Like many, Duplica.
5) Do you still watch the anime?
God no.
6) What's your favourite Pokemon type? Explain.
I like the steel types in theory, because they're all so non-animal-y. But I'd probably go with Grass in practice. More diversity.
7) Who's your favourite Pokemon? Explain.
At the moment? Bronzor. It's not an animal, like I said above, and it has interesting abilities.
8) Which Pokemon do you dislike the most? Explain.
Oh man, what's that one. Claydol. So creepy.
9) Which is your favourite region? Explain.
Oh, man. To live in? Johto. It's got... I like the feel of it better.
10) Which is your favourite Pokemon series (ie, Kanto 1-151, Johto 152-251, Hoenn 252-358, others)? Explain.
If Colosseum, which is badass, doesn't count, then this diamond/pearl generation. But Colosseum.
11) Can you say a series Pokedex, without a reference, in order?
God no.
12) Do you know all the type advantages, disadvantages and all the super-effective moves for each type?
Yeah, probably.
13) Did you prefer Pokemon before the new ones, or after?
I have liked it since the beginning.
14) Have you got an Original Character who is a trainer?
I've never thought about it up until now. I would really love to app someone at a multitheme game, or even make one. Oh man.
15) Have you ever wrote a fanfiction story about Pokemon?
Yeah, they're probably on this computer somewhere. Um... I took other peoples' fanfics and wrote me and my friends into them. Oh it's so embarrasing.
16) Was the OC based on yourself?
Yes, oh God. I'm so ashamed.
MORE INTERESTINGLY, when we went on holiday, me and my brother always had running games we'd play where we'd be Pokemon trainers. It remains one of my greatest childhood memories... ever.
17) Who is your favourite gym leader?
Jasmine, mostly because she's so kind and gentle.
18) What about Elite Four trainer?
Phoebe, mostly because she's like. A sexy tanned hula girl... who trains an ass load of ghosts.
19) If you lived in the Pokemon world, who would you starter be? (Please choose out of the normal starters, excluding Pikachu and Eevee).
Oh, man. I really don't like a lot of the evolved forms, so I'd say Chikorita or Turtwig.
20) Which city would you live in before you started your journey? Why?
The mining one. Because it's so like where I live IRL.
21) Would you travel just in the one region, or spread to other places?
Yeah, provided I could, I'd roam anywhere.
22) Would you train just one type, or different ones?
Different ones. Just couldn't pick one!
23) What kind of Poke-Person would you be? Trainer? Breeder? Gym leader?
Hahaha, oh man. This is an interesting one. If I could be a psychic, if that qualifies, I would. Pokemon psychics got it made. Otherwise, like... hey yeah man, why not. I'd be a Gym Leader. Psychic Gym leader. FUCK YEAH.
24) Would you collect gym badges? Or keep Pokemon as pets?
...and I'd have collected badges when I was younger, and now be in charge of a gym in my twenties... but I'd roam around the place.
25) Who is your ultimate two-on-two team? Explain.
Oh man, who did I use all the time in Colosseum? Quagsire and Furret.
