I love 'em  I played the original Ruby and Sapphire to death (literally, the in-game clocks both died on me.), and I think the remakes do them justice. I've not finished Alpha Sapphire (so many games, so little time), but so far it's been very enjoyable, and the DexNav thingy is really cool - it lets you find Pokemon in the wild with high EVs, hidden abilities, and/or egg moves. WonderTrade is still present and is fun. My only complaint is that the new "sneaking" ability (to catch Pokemon with the DexNav) is a bit difficult to control. Oh, and I'm sad they removed the customisation aspect of X&Y, and that your Pokemon can't walk behind you like in HG/SS. They're not straight remakes, either, as they have other new things, too - Mauville City has an entirely new look, for example.

That's good to hear that they have given a new look to the old games not sure which version I will get I guess. It depends on what is in stock. Getting quite excited now

As a great fan of the third generation (played original Sapphire and Emerald), I'd totally recommend it. It still keeps that retro flavour with all the improvements on the new Pokemon games

I played the original Sapphire, and then picked up Alpha Sapphire when it came out. Though a lot of aspects are the same, enough is different enough that it feels like an entirely new game to me. Not to mention the graphics are beautiful When I first heard about the games I was hyped, but wary of just getting a re-make that brought nothing new to the table, but so far that hasn't been the case at all.

So after seeing so many cute pictures of the new Pokemon card I decided to pick up a few packs and get back into them after a almost 14 year break. (I bought 8 packs send help) but while at target I noticed they have pokemon center plushies of the honen starters, mega lucario and mega blastoise. Now these aren't the poke dolls like seen at walmarts. I did get a torchic as I had one when the region first came out that I carried EVERYWHERE was stolen.

I got a few comments asking me why I don't have Pikachu, which I thought was funny.  I've never been a Pikachu fan, which I guess is like blasphemous of a Pokemon fan to say. As for Raichu and Pichu?  I like them!

I wish I could say that I have Pokemon plushies from when I was younger, but I don't.  I only collected the cards and played the games when I was little.  I didn't start collecting outside of those until I was older.

My partner and I have the Mega Blastoise and Mega Lucario plushies. ^^ They're very nice quality, which is probably why they're 25 bucks. We also picked up a Chespin plush which I think was made by Tomy? I don't remember offhand. :x

I also finally beat the Pokemon LEague in X last night! Kept getting distracted by other games. This is actually the first time I've beaten the Elite Four and Champion in a Pokemon game. I've always gotten stuck on the Four themselves or the Champion (or burned out halfway through the games).

New eevee plush!! I now have the flareon, jolten, umbreon, mew, and lapras pikedoll on the way (they are all bootlegs LOL) Hinata (Espeon) is the only legit pokemin center plush in the picture. I cant believe my dad spent $35 on it! 9_9 I cant afford the rest of the legit Pokedoll eeveelutions, im perfectlt fine with really good fakes.

So am I the only one who just found out theyre still making sticker books for pokemon?? I swear there's been a huge lack of stickers in the latest gens unless you buy them online... I miss the ones I got when r/b/y was out.
Anyways, went into michaels today and they had a really thick pokemon sticker book with TONS of really nice stickers from every generation.. plus mega evos and some misc stickers like berries and poke balls...
I'm gonna go back tomorrow and get it I think, I didn't get it today because I was a little put off by the price ($12) but... I've convinced myself its worth it lol...

In case anyone hasn't seen it I finished this costume and sold it a while ago,

Now I need to get the girl one that goes with it but they're a little pricy right now. Before these guys came out last year there was only one plush from the evo line (nidorina) which i had, i was so surprised to see these guys! They came out with other male/female pairs like pikachu, wobbuffet, and meowstic and were in ufo machines.

[Sprinklecupcake]

OMG I need that Nidoran plush in my life!! Ahhhhhhh I LOVE that Mega X Charizard suit, so wicked!! You MADE that?!! Its incredible! *faints*

I just won this on eeebaaaaay!!!! Ive always wanted this one!!
