Well, I don't think I find any of the characters in pokemon attractive. Problem is that it's a children's cartoon lol.
Ah...yeah, but I try to keep my 'childhood' intact. It's the only thing that keeps me going in this dog-eat-dog world. Hence I always long for the stuff of my childhood, including pokemon.
Charizard. I always go with the fire type every game I played. Cyndaquil. Torchic, Chimchar skeleridge;
I always go for fire because they're almost always high Special attackers. Which means, 1 hit KO's at high levels.
Plus, they're harder to find at the beginning. I usuall catch a magikarp early on and make it into a gyrados. Plants are also easy to find.
Ah, I don't worry much on high levels since those high-level trainers (especially the league ones) will still be dwarfed by my levels. I always make sure to overkill my pokemon levels.
I had the OST on cassette and saw the movies in the cinema. I loved the original series right up until the 3rd season(?) Where Ash fights against a Dragonite in the finals. And wins.
