I do miss the earlier seasons. Not just the first season either. I actually loved it right up until the end of Diamond and Pearl. It's the newest season that I don't really like all that much. Which also makes it confusing to watch the newer movies.

I've loved Pokemon since I was in like fourth grade. I didn't have a Gameboy back then, but I used to collect the cards (which I still have). When I did get a Gameboy and, later, a DS, Pokemon was pretty much all I played. They are still the ones I play the most. Including the Gamecude ones.
