[XiAoZeY]

[chin2000000]

Cheers for many more great years of Pokemon!

[AdamDuffield]

[BigBossHimself]

"I'm partial to the fire element monsters"

WHOA! I think he's taking this too seriously.

[Kenji1801]

I absolutely love this! if this Retrospective series gets a tv channel of itself i'll call it something like "Pokèmon Planet" or "National Pokègraphics"

[Kenji1801]

ash's aunt!? bull****!!!

[Kenji1801]

I love your Pokemon Retrospectives! keep up the INCREDIBLE work! :D

[MrNickWright]

Wish you made the background music a little quieter. It's hard to hear what you're saying during some parts

[brindapari1]

[Jakerno]

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

@killtrocity09 what a dick... seriously just because you're anonymously posting, doesn't mean you have a free pass at being an asshole to a nice guy.

[danielhohenstauffen]

Awesome! Greetings from Brazil! You did a WONDERFUL job. Thank you very much!

[evenios]

this should be a bonus on an offical dvd good stuff.

[zangetsu9196]

Finally, a well done Pokemon retrospective. Kudos to you, sir.

[nicoleb]

You pronounce Japanese names in a very Wapanese way, friend.

[MyDeathslayer]

what is the name of the song playing at 0:38

[CinematicallyUnhappy]

i was attracted to it the same way everyone else at my school was; everyone else was getting into it.

i really got addicted when i got my first gameboy. first game was pokemon yellow. killer memories.

pokemon gold was my favourite pokemon game, and one of my favourite games of all time. and i still play the games to this day. and i'm very excited for pay day (new ds and pokemon white (3ds, probably)).

[punkmario06]

yeah i agree the production qualities of this are great, and seeing as black and white hav ejust come out this deserves way more views....ill go bump this everywhere

[UberPyro64]

I loved Pokemon as a kid though it wasn't my favorite show nor game series back then. For games it was Zelda and for TV it was Dragon Ball Z.

[MutanttiMarsu]

These Pokémon retrospective videos are well made and entertaining! They make me feel nostalgic... Pokémon was awesome back in the day. :)

[MandyXElle]

What was the game at the beginning? The one with thr running Rapidash?

[OscarHult]

@MandyXElle Pokemon Snap for N64. It's more like a game were you are gonna catch all pokemon on photo.

[EmoBoiAriel]

WTF, this video is awsome but its barely getting any views, why could that be :(

[PKMNRetrospective]

@EmoBoiAriel I'm cursed! True story!

[EmoBoiAriel]

@PKMNRetrospective well that sucks, cuz u have some awsome vids and drawings.... ur videos feel so official and i like that

i hope u get some more recognition soon

in fact ill try to put ur vids on my channel to promote them :D

[PKMNRetrospective]

@EmoBoiAriel thanks, dude! That'd be awesome of you!

[TornadoCreator]

For fuck sake... could this load any slower?

[cococolonel]

2:04 where can i find that pic? it's pretty cool.

[JarrydGothix]

A tear came to my eye, no joke.

[HopUpOutDaBed]

you sound gay

[beanio12]

I freakin love you for posting this dude!!!!

[evinevideos]

Pokemon is like a drug adiction, it's hard to stop and the effects don't fully disapear over time. But still, you gotta love pokemon

[Laubotje]

nicely done pal

[yugiohtcgcollector02]

Stop at 5:33 and you´ll see...

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

I got the video commercial in the mail... it was sent to people who were registered nintendo fans XD

[TheReasonWhyGuy]

polkamon XD

[Chaninebele]

I love this <3 That was my childhood... Due to nostalgic reasons I just started playing the blue edition again! Great job.

[MCBigman]

"Ash, Misty, Pikachu, and that other guy stare at the storm." What the hell? That's the actual caption. At 3:24. that's messed up.

[LordPhillock8]

nah, that was just a humorous example added in just for the lolz. ;)

[jonservo]

haha i remember the commercial, i received a vhs in the mail one day, and it had the15-20 minute commercial on it. i remember thinking how stupid the game looked. i gave the game a try and got hooked on pokemon. i would have kept the vhs had i known how big it would all get, it would have been considered a collectors item by now probably

[tylerluvsallie]

i kind of find it funny at the begenning he says he wants to be a pokemon master but its been like 500 episodes and he has went no where

[tylerluvsallie]

pokamin LOLZ

[Oathblivion]

Even though I only really care about the games, it's somehow refreshing to hear Ash's original dub voice.

[KimukoCat]

Meh. i never really was a huge fan of Pokemon but I remember playing one of the ancient GBA games when I was like, 6 or 7? And I remember going as Pickachu for Halloween once. Never watched the show or played the card game. But man that game was addictive. I bet it's still lying in my drawers now, lol...This was very interesting though.

[secr15]

LOL I WENT TO CHARMANDER

[secr15]

OMG I THINK I REMEMBER THIS COMMERCIAL

[LordPhillock8]

D'oooooh! What did you think of it?

[secr15]

O.O I NEED POKEMON thats what XD .... actually i dont really remember it was a LOONG TIME AGO

[secr15]

i really dont remember it was soo long ago

[KillerEmcee]

I remember when this show came on at 6 AM on what used to be WB. Probably the only reason I ever made it to school on time in those days.

Interesting retrospective, I'll be watching out for the rest of the series.

[desotowright]

I never really had the luxury of having the original trading cards or video games, but that show was one of the coolest ever. In my early teens I went through a phase when it was uncool, but now that I'm almost an adult I've come to love it again. I've got a big stupid grin on my face as I'm watching this.

[secr15]

XD im supposed to be in that phase but im not going to do that pokemon IS AMAZING and nothing will ever change that no matter how old i get XD

[Husse67]

Wow, this is really excellent! Great job! ^_^

[CFFDan]

bug catching carreer lol

[MaximTrigger]

I'm not a huge fan of Pokemon, I enjoyed Red and Gold thoroughly, and I got a bit into...whichever game they introduced Aggron (<3 Aggron) in. Regardless of my fandom, this looks like it's going to be quite interesting, a definite subscription from me! :3

[socksandwich]

Awesome, can't wait for more.

I still remember thinking my game was broken when one of my Pokemon got poisoned, and that really annoying sound and screen flicker came on until it fainted.
