I have not been playing Pokemon for awhile now. I used to play with my neighbors kids, and take them down when the new boxes were released. But since having moved, and having kids of my own, I feel sorta weird if I went back to play a game, being that I am older, over 30, and my kids just aren't old enough to play yet. Are there players my age? Is it seen as weird as an older to join a league? I really do love the game and haven't played since I moved, but would like to get back into it. I live in the Federal Way/Seattle area, and want to know if there are players nearby, and what advice you have to offer.
Thanks!

Here on the boards, there's plenty of 30+ and 40+. Maybe even a few 50+, but I don't know for certain.

Depends who you ask. If you ask someone who isn't into it and has little knowledge of it, they might say yes. If you ask someone who is into it and knows the complexities and fun of the game, they'd probably say no. [ January 14, 2003, 01:13 PM: Message edited by: Orange Soda ]

Hey, welcome back! This actually might find a better home in the Random Topic Center, so off it goes...
And yes, there are still plenty of 30 year old players and older who play the game.
