Medium core, I once had 400 pokemon in my pokedex (or somewhere there) Though you can use smogon.com if you truly want to be hardcore.

Ex-mediumcore softcore. I used to be really into it all the strats, but I just used it to beat the game. Now I just beat the game, as I haven't kept up with all the changes.

Edit:

Nostalgist easily. I played Sapphire, but never finished it. I also played Leaf green but other than Blue, I have never really played one.

Huh, well i do know about those. Just not by that name...

I'm the Nostalgic type. Silver and Blue are some of the best games ever made, the new games can suck it :P

i think i'm a medium core and a mmo requester :b

Mediumcore.

I have no use for the end-game unless it's interesting(sevii islands), but I do love trying to speed run Pokemon Fire Red multiple times a year. My best is 9 hours at the moment. I'm going to try to speed run Emerald, but it's going to be hard for me to speed run Diamond, as I don't really know it that well.

I'm really enjoying the replies. Especially the people who don't see the irony in them posting things like "There's no way you can argue the new games are better."

Good read, and creepy how right it is.

Softcore/MMO requester

Mediumcore and Nostalgist. I'm not overly obssessive with the Metagame but I do spend time making creative teams. Also, I love playing the previous games (Even though the games now are much mroe of an improvement, it was funner back then)
