Man... I remember the pokemon craze during the late 90s. It was THE biggest thing on EVERY kid's mind (Also their beds, walls, shelves, and christmas lists).
Yep i remeber this vhs randomly showing up in my mail when i was 7 years old, back then it looked like the coolest thing in the world to me lol. Pokemon was the shit back in the day, i'm still looking for a holographic charizard card lol
@ATCRyderX Back in your day Ho-oh had already appeared in the first episode of the anime which introduced most of us to the series. Not to mention the fact there were going to be 190 Pokemon in the original games but only 151 could fit so the rest were added to Gold and Silver.
In other words there were never only 151 Pokemon. Never.
@Kazisho hahaha. Whoaaa. I usually don't respond to people who talk like absolute FAGGOTS..however..I was just sayin 151 was what most everyone & myself remembers.
@Kazisho HEY!!! our first Pokémon games were Saphire and Leafgreen, and we were born in 1993. The only reason we never had the first two generations, was because we never had a Gameboy or Gameboy Color. We DID have a few books, cards, figures, and VHS tapes. In fact, I actually remember watching this when I was little.
Dude what. Giovanni doesn't even know that ash or pikachu exist. Jessie james and meowth just wanna get it because they think it's strong and would be useful among other pokemon.
"rarest pokemon of all" yeah that's why there's tons of other ones and pikachu still gets its ass handed to him on a regular basis.
I finally found this! I remember getting this in the mail... but the strange part is... I didn't even have a Nintendo Power subscription... either way this was amazingly nostalgic!
I got this videotape in the mail when I was a kid. I still have it somewhere, but it's been stored in a box that was left in a shed with a broken roof for a few winters. I hope it's still okay!
man, I remember liking that song at 0:20, I was kinda upset when they did release that song on CD, it was a different dance mix instead... I wonder if the original was ever released...
I find it interesting how the different segments of the Pokemon franchise are geared towards different age groups. The show is obviously for children, whereas the card game is for anyone over 12 (according to the boxes of starter sets), and the games seem to be for all ages, with elements that kids would enjoy yet much deeper game elements that only the older fans seem to be able to grasp.
after watching the first month of Pokemon I was hooked after my comic shop had the pokemon binders. I remember buying cards every weekend during school. Also at little carnivals; I'd play crazy to win a pack of pokemon cards. I remember this well thanks. I still have all my old cards ^^
@PandaSpice That makes it great. =D It's as camp as slashers and pro wrestlers of the late 80s. "Geodude are really tough." "I'm partial to the fire element Pokémon." "This is a Pokéball." XD
y the fuck wont bitch ass pikachu pussy face get in the dam pokeshit ball. LOL. 2 bad if ur scared u lil panzy. just get tha fuk in der bitch punk dickhole. sry. im really bored and this vid just came out of nowhere
hahaha actually no one knew about it at the time of filming. This was before pokemon came out. I was troy in the video. The director just kept telling us that pokemon was going to be huge.
Man, when I was 8 I got this video. Watched it with my brothers like 10 times, we even taped on VHS the first episodes, and watched them when we got home from school.
I'm actually pretty surprised that this video was all "POKEMON WILL BE THE NEXT BIG THING" and...Well, they were right.
i wish i saw this
