>9 years old>at grocery store>see fan magazine with new DP mons>mind was blownWe've seen mons like Lucario before, but this magazine had a bunch I've never seen before. I remember opening it and seeing the Lake Trio for the first time, and they were labeled with their Japanese names. This was probably about a year before DP's western release and all my friends were really impressed with this information.
I may be a zoomer but this was back in 2006 when most people still didn't even use the internet and life was simpler. Take me back, bros.
