How did you get into pokemon ?

My friends and I in fourth grade were all about Pokemon. Not like how we are now with the breeding and what not, but like the secret stuff we thought were cool. Things like the underground city in Emerald, or how to get Mew. We also collected alot of trading cards (back when Pokemon Lv.X was just starting). It got so bad at my school that the principal banned Pokemon (called them Pikamon xD) along with Bakugan and Beyblades. So my first game was Emerald, and it just continued from there. I am the only Senior in my high school to still be playing Pokemon now, it sucks but it doesn't bother me.
