My Life in Pokémon Games (Yerr)

This is a list of My Experiences in Pokémon Games through the years. Games are listed in order of region, meaning even if a game was released in a subsequent generation, if it takes place in Kanto, it will be listed in Generation I.

This list takes the place of the NINE pages I previously had detailing all of this.

Generation I - Kanto Games


Pokémon Red Version (2016) ✅🔵💀

I played Pokémon Red Version on the Nintendo 3DS's Virtual Console in February 2016. This was the first time that I ever beat a Kanto game in its entirety.

My player character was Red and my partner was Cham the Charizard.

Pokémon LeafGreen Version (2013) 🌟✴️
I played Pokemon LeafGreen Version on my Nintendo DS Lite. I borrowed the game from my friend David. I never finished this game but I got up to the Elite Four before I either had to give the game back or I just didn't feel like going past it.

My player character was Venan and my partner was Venusaur.

Pokémon Let's Go! Pikachu (2019) 🌟
I got this game for Christmas and played co-op mode with Ian. I beat this game with him relatively quick.

My player character was Lancer, and my partner was Lemon Grab the Pikachu.

Generation II - Johto Games


Pokémon Gold Version (2012) ✅💀

I played this game on Marcello's old GBA. The cartridge does not work anymore. When I played it I really only got up to maybe the third gym or so. Also, because I used Marcello's old GBA, the battery was dry and I couldn't add new ones, so every time I booted up the game I had to start all over again.

My character's name was Charman because I thought Charmader was the starter I would pick...

Pokémon Crystal Version (2017) 💀
I played this game on an emulator on my phone. On this one I tried to complete the PokéDex (to the best of my ability) but I never finished it. It was on this play through that I got my third legit shiny Pokémon, a Nidorina. I beat this game, but I don't think I ever got far into the Kanto portion of the game.

My player character was Bob, and my parnter was Muncher the Feraligatr.

Pokémon Heart Gold Version (2017) 🌟🔵
I got this game for Christmas and played it in 2017. I never actually finished it, and to be honest, not sure if I even enjoyed it as much as I should have. I only ever got up to the Elite Four. Might give it another shot some day, we'll see.

My player character was Meganan and my starter was Maganium.

Generation III - Hoenn


Pokémon Emerald Version (2012) ✅

I played this game on a bootlegged (?) cartridge that Christian gave me in fifth grade. I loved this game. It took me days to finally beat Wallace, but the moment I did, my DS froze, and I've never been able to turn the game on ever again.... Might be my favorite Pokemon game ever.

My player character was Scepten and my partner was Sceptile.

Pokémon Omega Ruby (2014) 🌟
I played this game when it came out in 2014, and I think it might be my favorite Pokémon game of all time. Great graphics, story, and all. Waited for so so long for it to come out and it didn't disappoint one bit.

My player character was Bob, and my partner was Mudz4Dayzkip the Swampert.

Generation IV - Sinnoh


Pokémon Pearl Version (2012) ✅

I got Pokémon Pearl as a gift from my CCD teacher in fourth grade. She gave it to me, and I was so close to beating it, but I remained unable to defeat Cynthia.

My player character was Torten and my partner was Torterra.

Pokémon Platinum Version (2019) ✅💀
I got Platinum for Christmas 2017 and beat it in 2019. Ian helped me a lot, to build my team and such. I liked it a lot more than Pearl, and had a lot of fun with it.

My player character was Jake and my partner was Blaze the Infernape.

Pokémon Black Version (2020) ✅
I got this game in 2017 and finally played it in 2020. Ian helped me build my team, same as in Platinum. I enjoyed this a lot more than my first time playing White.

My player character was Bob and my partner was D'Arby the Samurott.

Pokémon White Version (2013) ✅
I got this game ages ago, probably 2013 or 14, from my cousin David. When I played this game, I hated it. Gen 5 was my least favorite for a long time. I can't even remember how far I got, I just remember hating it.

My player character was Serpen and my starter was Serperior.

Pokémon Black Version 2 (2012) ✅
My very first Pokémon game ever... I don't remember much, but I enjoyed it a lot. I beat it first try with my level 100 Infernape. Good times.

My player was Emblen and my partner was an Infernape I got from trade at level 1 that I trained to level 100.

Generation VI - Kalos
Pokémon Y (2013) ✅

I played this game twice. The first time in 2013 when I got it, where my player character was Delphen and my partner was Delphox, and the second time as master of the PokéDex, Bob, who's partner was Greninja. In this game I managed to collect every single Pokemon that was possibly available at that time. It took me a few months but I got all 721 of them from Bulbasaur to Volcanion. I even tried to do a Shiny Pokemon version of the National Dex, but that fell flat for obvious reasons

Pokémon Sun (2016) ✅
I got this game for my birthday in 2016, and even though the event of getting it was a little dramatic, all was well. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

My player character was Deciduen and my partner was Decidueye.

Pokémon Ultra Sun (2020) ✅
I got this game on Christmas the year it came out and didn't play it until 3 years later. It was a hoot! Definitely more enjoyable than the first time I played Sun, and lemme tell ya, I liked it a lot.

My character was Bob, and my partner was Stella the Primarina. On this game I completed the entire Generation VII Pokedex.

Pokémon Shield (2020) ✅
I got Pokémon Shield for Christmas in 2019 when it came out and played it the following Summer. I actually liked it a lot more than a lot of other people did, and had a lot of fun.

My player character was Carl and my partner was Bugs the Cinderace. It was on this save file that I completed the entire Galar Pokedex so far.

Expansion Pass Part 1: Isle of Armor (2020) ✅
In the first DLC for Shield, the Isle of Armor, my team didn't change that much except I swapped out Da Baby the Drewdnaw for Canespada the Zamazenta and Dino the Toxicitry for Earnest the Urshifu.

Expansion Pass Part 2: Crown Tundra (2020) ✅
In the second DLC for Shield, the Crown Tundra, my team remains relatively the same except I swapped out Stew the Orbeetle for Fargburg the Calyrex, and Stew the Orbeetle for Da Baby the Drednaw.

Pokémon Quartz Version (2020)🔖
I first heard about this game sometime around 2013 when I read Zorak's lets play of it, and I wanted to play it since then for so long. I got my first shot in 2016, but the game I downloaded wasn't finished, and I was stuck at one spot.

In 2020 I tried again, this time with the intent to finish it and the Pokédex. And I did it! I finally 100% completed this game after almost 7 years!

My player character was Bob, and my partner was Swish the Oceadino.
