Not me but my brother I was referring to above got a hold of his friend's gameboy and Pokemon Blue in 1997 (Internet was not a thing yet for us). Pokemon buzz was strong though. Anyways he did not know how to catch Pokemon until he was pretty much finished with the game! We still joke about it. He literally almost finished the game with his Charazard and Gyrados that you got from an NPC early in the game (he gives you Magikarp actually).
We replayed the game together and the second experience was so much fun. Good times... I miss my brother :(. Why did we have to grow up and live so far apart!?
