Isnt pokemon bigger than disney. I mean all of the cards in the world is estimated to be like billions of dollars
@dfsnfNothing like late 1998-1999 Gen 1. What a time to be alive
@jreambeatzGotta be honest. Regardless of how dope your voice is, I cannot subject myself to listening to a man with f*** bangs..
@NoctemD3ADDoes it drive anyone crazy hearing “Pokey-man?”
@FATGTIHouseI STILL PLAY POKEMOIN GO
@chariza13Watched it as a child and then like most collected the cards.
@andrewwalker5115I remember watching that 60 minutes clip at 11:28. Talk about a blast from the past.
@gillebroI didn’t get into Pokémon into the early 2000’s and now I’m constantly playing on emulators and Pokémon Go 😭
@lucillerose-davis7666I got into Pokemon with the anime
@cadenmartin2467POKÉMON FOREVER

@omarvalderrama1314Commentator looks like if “I need attention” had a face
@JayMitch-c6l3pSo what I’m hearing is Mew helped boost the popularity of Pokémon.. love that for my favorite Pokémon ;)
@kat.celestePeople that didn't live through the first 2-3 years wouldn't understand how huge Pokemania was. Red and blue version, trading cards, anime, and the movies.
@crunchy_panty907Hope the songs are included.
@RianEvans-ub2bhI use to watch the anime when i was a kid but never got a chance to play any of the game on the gameboy and ds/3ds era since that time i grew out of it but when i was a kid i use to record the episodes and draw the pokemon and my older cousin said enjoy this now cause this show wont last 😂 how wrong he was, he didnt think it would become a massive deal, he would say samething about how sega will win the console wars 😂 then said the switch will be nintendo biggest flop more then the wiiU and by that point i told him dude, you been wrong about everything just shut the F up, recently like last month the first time i saw him in 6 years and yet again he said switch 2 isnt selling that great and how xbox will dominate the console wars 😂😂 and i told him your really really stupid, just stop it, your either a big troll or the R word
@doshi066Pokémon was so popular in high school. Platinum, Heart Gold, and Soul Silver were amazing. Especially the Pokéwalker.
@Quick-Silver20643 and still one of the biggest Pokemon fan ever.
@zerocool-hackWay too many ads…
@JeremyHollon-ff9owI am a Ash and Pikachu fan
Forever and ever
The American version of the Pokemon anime came out when I was 7 years old and ended when I was 33 years old
@mandyholmberg5106Length is 33 minutes, and 43 seconds.
@StephenChase-x4woh hi mark
@Danetto❤ 😊 Thanks very much Nintendo Game Freak Pokemon Company!!!
@techgadgetitgeek8797Haha dude that snorlax plush they show at 27:55 😂 i STILL have it. Its next to my switch 2
@rebd00mer93Haha when he said that most kids left pokemon in the 2000s because they were becoming teenagers and picked up skateboards because of thps. That was definitely me. Thps and rocket power got me into skating in 1999.
@rebd00mer93I still have MOST of my original pokemon cards from the late 90s. Im SO glad i still have them. I say most because some have been stolen over the years.
@rebd00mer93My wife and I cant with your hair.
@amedmacias3484I had Pokémon Blue on the O.G. Gameboy. Always chose Bulbasaur.
@erichimmelein5421Why tf did it take 2 years to come to the US?
@mooviedude1991As the games started to look more realistic, they started to look more generic. Funny how that works.
I’ve just discovered what are called “Rom Hack” pokemon video games, and it seems like an awesome way to experience the newer gen Pokémon but with the older gen graphics and feel.
What of the manga
@shadowl3gion641I started playing Go around the pandemic, and was seeing a lot of online discussion about the other games. Naturally, I wanted to see what all the hype was about, so I began playing Pearl (NOT shining pearl - the original DS one). Rest is history, and the final evolution of my starter (Empoleon) is my favourite Pokémon of all time.
@athenahungariansjust_dance6221please tell me thats a wig
@esteban_mcintyreAveraging an add break every 1 1/2 minutes is just insane. F this channel
@mitchellhoward3580Sweet wig bro
@DCfromtheVThe original Pokémon cards in the 90's gave me so much trauma as a kid lol i lived in the hood part of Houston,TX where most kids in my neighborhood were stealing pokemon cards from each other, often fighting for em, even cheat during battles.. it was soo sketchy man 😭. If any kid had ANY holo back then they were cooked lol your shit was gettin rob first day 💀

@davismotomiya6864I swear being born in 1990 was like hitting the lottery. We just had so much great innovation in kids entertainment back then. There was always something new comung out.
