It's kind of sad how far we've come since then. Pokemon was a microcosm of the 90's, it is like the ultimate epitome of post-cold war consumerism culture. I don't think theres a word to describe the idea I'm going for. Zeitgeist maybe? No, pokemon went beyond Zeitgeist. It's like how every kid growing up can quote every spongebob episode by heart. It basically became part of us. Every Millenial can probably name the first 150 off the top of their heads. Pokemon was and still is part of who we are.
