When I was little I wanted nothing more than to beat a Pokemon game. I don't know why it never happened, but my best attempt left me with seven gym badges and an order to stop playing or I'd start having more seizures. (Not going there.)
But a few days ago I dug out my DS, the charger and Pokemon Pearl Version and plugged the stupid thing in. I was determined.
After scouring the net for suggestions I chose Piplup as my starting pokemon because it has really great defense after the last evolution into Empoleon.
And Oh. My. God. It was so much fun. I captured the legendary pokemon, Palkia, who created Sinnoh. I trumped the elite four and the champion with just three pokemon, one of which I picked up on Victory Road. I am the Pokemon Leauge Champion. It took me 45 hours. My family couldn't understand my obsession. My best friend scorned the beloved game. But it doesn't matter.
Because I'm the freaking best trainer in all of Sinnoh.
Now I'm hanging at the battle tower, excited for what comes next.
Remember the season one pokemon theme song? Picture this post fading to black as it plays.
