Ah, a fellow old-timer.
I thought the anime was too childish for me but secretly enjoyed watching it with my younger siblings. My brother and sister had a pokemon poster with Misty on it and I ended up falling in love with the character. Greatly enjoyed taking glances at the poster when I was reading them a good night's story. Misty contributed to my love of side ponytails as well; don't really like the regular back of the head type that much at all.
Emulated Pokemon Yellow close to its release date with the early emulators, and that's pretty much the only game I've played. Realized that I made a mistake of not playing Red or Blue when I couldn't get rid of that peace of shit Pikachu or even make him evolve. I've made my peace with him later on, though.
