✅ Finally caught 'em all (for now)
I hit a pretty big milestone in my gaming collection recently - a full set of Pokémon core series games! I was missing the original Gameboy version of Gold and when my brother heard that it was the only one I didn’t have, he generously gifted me his childhood copy so I could have the full set.
I also recently finished up Pokémon Sword, so I have now beaten at least one game from every generation of Pokémon games. I’ll be writing a full review on that game soon, but thought it would be fun to share some stats from my years of playing Pokémon.
FIRST GAME ACQUIRED: Blue - a Christmas gift in 1998!
LAST GAME ACQUIRED: Gold, a gift from my brother
FAVORITE GAME: A toss up between Platinum and X
LEAST FAVORITE GAME: Probably Let’s Go Pikachu/Eevee
LONGEST SAVE FILE: X - 268:21
GAMES PURCHASED USED: Emerald, Fire Red, Leaf Green, Platinum, Soul Silver, White, White 2, Omega Ruby, Sun, Ultra Sun
FIRST NATURAL SHINY: A Grumpig in a Friend Safari in Pokémon X, nicknamed Butters
GAMES BEATEN: Red, Blue, Yellow, Silver, Crystal, Sapphire, Emerald, Fire Red, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, Black, X, AlphaSapphire, Moon, Let’s Go Eevee, Sword

Next up for my collection I’d like to add a full set of Zelda games which will be a little more difficult considering the age of some of those games… but I’m well on my way! Happy collecting!
