I really liked the days when Pokémon was just a simple monster-pet battling game. One where you got to name your Rival 'buttface' and went on great adventures with your starter and couple of creatures of the wild that looked pretty cool. When your Pokémon related thoughts were pretty much "I have a penguin with a trident on its face, how fucking rad is that?".
Sometimes you'd meet up with a friend and share neat stories and show each other all the cool things you'd found. Heck, sometimes you'd even get to trade around some of those creatures to see new and exciting ones! And occasionally you'd fight and one of you would win because he had Mewtwo and you still hadn't even beaten the Elite 4.
I liked those days before I started analysing each monster's stats and moves and trying to think up optimal strategies. Then I saw that Hariyama could learn Belly Drum in Pokémon Black and White.
And I laughed like a madman.
