so I herd she liek Mudkips

Umm......good job?

Wow. I thought I liked Pokemon. o_O A trip to Japan followed by a spending spree? I definitely don't have that kinda money.

Is that a Zubhat?
Edit: On closer inspection it does look like a Golbhat

@y2josh: Looks more like a Golbhat to me.

Well, this is certainly...different. If she's happy and not in some kind of inane debt, I don't suppose it's really a PROBLEM as such. Just a bit odd. I wonder...what the heck is an "Absol?" Some post-Gold/Silver piece-of-crap Pokémon, I suppose? _{No bias here, no sir!}

Absol is actually a very solid Drak-type Pokémon introduced in Ruby/Sapphire and of those few characters that do no fit in the crappy category.

I think I love her! <3

Definition of Fangirl

@Rensch: Oh, really? Well, I guess there are a FEW that aren't so crappy...I kinda like Lucario, though that's pretty much entirely SSBB's fault.

y r all these fanppl in europe lol, i swear the guy with the most simpsons stuff is there as well

I'm pretty sure the TMNT fangirl is American, if it's any consolation.

Is that a giant Snorlax doll in the middle of the picture? No, that's the girl. My bad.

Now THAT is the truest definition of the term 'Pokemaniac'! Good on ya, girl! Never give up the dream!

I give you a 21 Hyper Beam salute!

She's great. We English are a bit odd like this.

And i thought i was a pokemaniac... Wow! Good job!

Beating out the collectors in Japan...
that's some serious catching.

And we thought that PikaBelleChu (Belle Starenchak) caught them all...

Someone's spent a childhood being very, very spoilt.

pretty cool, she could be sitting on a huge cash one of these days...

She found it a relief from the bullying she suffered from school at the time due to a physical disability

you know that is just eft up, kids can so freaking stupid at times!

This was in the newspaper yesterday- she says her collecting help her cope when she was bullied

Isn't there some kind of mental disorder related to this?

Pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pika... pikachu!

@12
That was genius I can't stop laughing!

Wow, that's a collection.

...I like Absol too... >.>

So, when you walk into that room, it's like...

A wild every-Pokemon-you've-ever-seen-times-thirteen appeared!

_{pokeballs goooooooooooooo}

um, ok. great.

I'm pleased we've kept this civil (and resisted the urge for any rude jokes). The one thing I've got to add is you can find a short video clip here:

A tragic tale, to be sure.

@28

How so?

I was right, Absol is the best.

Absol is awesome :3

Definitely one of my faves.

That's insane. I thought I have a lot of Pokemon tat... but that is just plain insane.

I already knew about this, it was in the Guinness book I got for christmas.

So... many... EYES!! They watch me at night, I just know it.

Seriously though, I feel bad for this person, to have to fill the gap in her life with meaningless toys to be happy. I'm not making fun of her, it's just I kind of feel her pain as I use to be the same way. Eventually I realized my life was my own to take control of and I overcame and am still working on my inhabitions. She should step away from Pokemon collecting for a while and seek more from this world. So sad. T_T

Wow, and I thought I was obsessed.

Come on, give her a break. As long as shes happy and not hurting others, why there be a problem. Also, bullying someone who is physically disable? Now THAT is just plain wrong.

Hmm, i think The Pokemon Company International should hired her as a spokes person for Pokemon Games and in other Pokemon media groups.

@Jalapeño: why would she be hurting others

I'm happy for this girl but that is too much even by collecter standards.

I know she's disabled but if she's happy with her collection and people are treating her as if she's still a normal person then I am very happy for her.

This does remind me of another English collecter of Garfield stuff though...

I wonder what colour her floor is...

OMG it's just so scary

Holy sh*t. That will scare any guy away faster than a girl talking about marriage on the first date.

@ausgamer, she isnt. That is why I think people should not directly criticize her.

her name is courtney not corney

This story was the national anthem on Steve Lamacq's show on 6 music (suggest songs based on a news story) My favourite suggestion was Loser by Beck. ROFLWTTD (Roll On Floor Laughing While Trying To Drive)

Frightening.

Whoa. That's all I can say. Just... whoa.

That's a lot of Pokemon!

she must be stinking rich D:

... all i have is a pikachu plush doll that lost his nose...and checks...and one eye...
