Re: Confessions of an Adult Poke-addict
The theme song of my childhood. I expected to get my ass kicked by Sabrina in Gen I. Getting my ass kicked repeatedly by Claire was my training strategy for the elite four. But that damn miltank....

It's based on I Can't Beat Airman, but I don't think so. He usually sings his own lyrics, where this was done with Vocaloid.GSZX1337 wrote:Was that song done by the same guys that did AirMan Will Not Die?AmishSamurai wrote:

Re: Confessions of an Adult Poke-addict
Love pokemon especialy when they included the online feature. Im a veteren of the game, been playing since the original red and blue. On an added note, when I reserved Pokemon Black and White I talked to the gamestop clerk and he told me mostly older women around my age more or less reserved the game for themselves than men. BTW, I'm 28.

Re: Confessions of an Adult Poke-addict
That's crazy. As someone who's been in the Pokémon community for three and a half years, I have NEVER seen any females at that age play. I've seen them as young teenagers or younger, and I've seen (very few) men at that age, but not women.ghost1334 wrote:On an added note, when I reserved Pokemon Black and White I talked to the gamestop clerk and he told me mostly older women around my age more or less reserved the game for themselves than men.

Re: Confessions of an Adult Poke-addict
I was sort of puzzled myself when he told me, until I picked it up on launch date. I didnt see an overabundance of women but there were a few of them picking it up (I asume for themselves since I saw they didnt have any children with them or other slightly older kids with them).

Re: Confessions of an Adult Poke-addict
I would have to think that they were picking up the game for their kids. The kids could have been at home with the father, or at school/daycare. I'm skeptical that there are more than a handful of older women who play Pokemon.ghost1334 wrote:I didnt see an overabundance of women but there were a few of them picking it up (I asume for themselves since I saw they didnt have any children with them or other slightly older kids with them).

Re: Confessions of an Adult Poke-addict
Or maybe Pokemon release days at Gamestop are a good place to pick up women... "So, you like Pokemon ay? We should get together and trade..."gtmtnbiker wrote:I would have to think that they were picking up the game for their kids. The kids could have been at home with the father, or at school/daycare.

OPN used 'Pickup Line'
It's not very effective.
