Day 4 - Your guilty pleasure game
Pokémon does have something of a stigma attached to it in non-gamer circles for some reason it's generally seen as more childish than games like Mario or Sonic despite the target market being more or less the same and the actual mechanics being generally more complicated.
Nonetheless it's still a great series, though I won't be buying any more since Soul Silver gave me the remake I always wanted with a ton of great mon in it, unless Nintendo radicalises the new games they won't see my patronage again for this series.
