It's been ages since they last had a new proper RPG. Now there's a new game, it's all hyped up again.

well, i guess most people don't show they like pokemon in their day to day life, cuz it's kindof embarassing to admit you still like pokemon if you're a teenager... but in the online community, you're basically anonymous, so it's completely ok to admit almost anything...

Why wouldnt people go back to pokemon?Red, blue and yellow were wicked, then with more pokemon they needed new games.So why nat? Personally i think that these games are the greatest, the thrill and entertainment of catching and finding new pokemon,beating leaders and getting new badges. FUN!

I dunno, there are a couple of girls I know that really love this game. The pokemon are cute or something. I want to get the new one but its just so expensive. Thus...I am opening the "Make a wish for Ethanodude foundation." All proceeds will go to my new DS. If you really do want to donate to me...no...just don't donate to a good cause. :) If you have any extra pocket change though...send me some and that would be great. :)

well idk why people keep going after pokemon i got tired of the annoying parts of catching every pokemon on ruby and sapphire, and to make matters worse they make pokemon diamond and pearl which is gay because i had a ds i sold it for 55 dollars because i don't like the ds at all, ill stick to the GBA and the GBASP. but i don't see why everyone wanted them to make another its bad enough knowing theres over 1000 episodes of pokemon out there they made more series based on diamond and pearl and on diamond and pearl with online u can go to some special site and trade around the world with other players and u can catch over 500 pokemon on diamond and pearl because u can get red blue yelllow silver gold ruby sapphire pokemon on that version and i say **** it im not going through all that of buying a new ds just to play that or do anything just to play it so its pretty pointless for those people to play that it gets boring after u catch all the pokemon on red, blue, yellow, gold, silver, crystal, ruby, sapphire, emerald

Many people like myself used to play at least one version of pokemon or other if they had some of the older gameboy handhelds. I don't know about you, but these games were really fun. I'm 24 now and many people tell me that these games are "kiddy," but games are all about fun, no? I think gameplay is the determining factor when it comes to games, not necessarily theme or graphics.

Meh, I always stayed with Pokemon because I love RPG games with deep game mechanics and a diverse selection of characters. You aren't likely to get more diverse than the 500+ different characters that Pokemon offers, and the game mechanics are inconceivably complex.

because the Pokemon RPGs are, and always have been, incredibly fun. It's amazing how much fun you can have off of a silly little game based off of one of the world's stupidest anime shows. I hate the Pokemon TV show with a passion, but the Pokemon games are awesome. They're so fun that I'm addicted to them. I'd rather play them than eat or sleep.

I think it is because newer versions kept coming out... each nicer than the previous one.. so even if someone quit and a while later, after he saw the new version, he will go back to the game...

Every0one enjoys the feeling of watching their pokemon grow and evolve seeing what strenghts they will gain, maybe its all of our maternal instincs crying out.

It's such a huge game, for one, I've logged over 30 hours on it since the release date and I'm nowhere close to bored! <_< And yeah, nobody's ever left it, we've just gotten bored waiting for the next one :D

Because I've grown up playing Pokemon games, I found myself reminiscing and finally decided it was time for me to relive those memories through Diamon/Pearl
