I haven't written in ages, although I have written some short tidbits for prompts for this story I am working on.
I like Kanto personally, though there were parts that frustrated me. I picked up a copy of yellow awhile back and almost beat it. And then the internal battery died and I lost all my save data. So I need to replace the battery in it if I want to play it again.
SS is really good! I prefer Lugia so I picked it over HG, which I bought for my little brother. I haven't beaten the 8th gym yet (Dragon types kinda freak me out since their only real weaknesses are Ice and Dragon, which just aren't types I use that often), but I know that you get to go to Kanto after that or beating the E4 so I'm stoked.
I love Gardevoir. Had one on my playthrough of Emerald, and never stopped loving it. :3 Unfortunately, it seems to be rare in OR and AS. Whoops. I will have my ralts though!
