    In my opinion, the re-makes of the old ones are 1000x better than the new games with new pokemons..
    The re-makes have the joy of the old ones, but with better graph :D

    me and a couple buddies all got emulators on our computers, so we all got the diff pokemon games, and we have competitions on who can complete the game fastest under certain conditions...weve done all weak pokemon, where we put all the weakest pokemon in a hat and drew our team of 6 and they were the only 6 we could use, and weve done types...so all fire team, or all water team, or all grass team and so on, i won the weak pokemon one...but i got bug type for the types and they suck :(

    I still watch pokemon, one of my favourite shows, and I'm not embarrassed by that
    I also have all 493 pokemon on my pearl game, although I did cheat for the event only ones

    I think the show is better now, mainly because I love me some Dawn, Brock is more charismatic and entertaining in his failed endeavors, the voice actors are better (although some people still hate them I'm sure) and I happen to love all the new pokemon
    same with the game, I don't understand in the slightest the people that only like the original generation. I think the fact that they keep coming out with more pokemon is my favourite aspect of the series. I certainly don't feel a lack in gameplay in the latest series. I played for months before I finally put it down with absolutely nothing left untouched, which I couldn't say for any other game in the past
    I know I'm in the minority, but I think the franchise is just improving, and is in a better place than it was when it started. But of course, the majority will probably eventually see to it's cancellation in spite of that

    I used to have a pokemoncrater account, though I never really played it enough to get that into it. Made a pokemonindigo account too, however I'm fairly certain I haven't touched it since it's creation.

    But as for the old vs new debate, I really like both(in regards to the episodes). Watching Ash, Misty & Brock going through Kanto was a big part of me growing up. xD Those are the classics to me, & once in a great while I'll still put in my old VHS tapes. On the other hand, the thing that makes me really like the newer stuff, especially diamond/pearl, is the battles and contests. Instead of just taking turns attacking and it was over with fairly quick, a lot of thought has been put into the techniques for battles, along with the contests as well. However there is a lot more filler and sometimes I really wonder what the hell they were thinking with some things.

    The movies though is a whole other story. I really believe that with the making of the diamond/pearl movies, it has really gone downhill. During some free time I decided to watch them online since I can never seem to catch them when they're occasionally on tv, and was extremely disappointed. The beginnings and ends had a bit of excitement to them, but the middles felt long and dragged on. I was waiting for something to keep me interested and make me want to keep watching the movie, however for a couple I really just wanted to turn it off. Maybe it is just me, but I'd actually like to see a movie where Ash isn't involved in some "life-changing" event with legendary pokemon.

    I really like the Pokemon Special manga that has arcs that follow the games but also expands upon the canon universe. I read somewhere that the creator said it was the most faithful version of his vision of the pokemon world. *_*

    I've got a team on fire red, I'm trying to fill in my 6th slot. My choices are either Tyranitar or Snorlax. Tyranitar has better stats all together, but more weaknesses. Snorlax still has good stats, such as HP and attack. Any suggestions?
