what was it like during the Pokemon craze of the 90s?

and what was the hype for the movie like when it was first announced or when the first trailers popped up?

basically if you mentioned pokemon to any kid they'd know what you were talking about instantly

and seeing the first movie in theaters as a kid with all the other kids was wild

it was the only pokemon movie with that amount of hype

People thought Ash would win the league and Misty would declare her love for Ash. LMAO, boy if people only knew the future. 1000+ eps and Ash still never won a league and Misty was dropped only 5 years into the series.

Fuck, I dunno kid. I was 15 when it launched in my country back then and I wasn't comfortable enough in my own skin, let alone to let my nerdishness hang out on full display back then.

i don't. pokemania was a mistake. it's the whole reason why game freak gets to rest on their laurels now and make nostalgia-pandering shovelware. they should have had to earn their spot against real competition instead of lucking out with one of the biggest fads ever.

In second and third grade I'd ask adults what their favorite pokemon were for fun and just about all of them had an answer that wasn't just Pikachu, Charizard or Meowth.

hard to imagine it now, a world where Pokemon had just come out and exploded across the world and also being just about the weirdest thing that could have exploded, even in the 90s

Thinking about it now, how Pokemon became a household name and as "nerd culture" became mainstream, is really fascinating. Even among all the other 90s fads. I guess Pokemon must've really taught people something.
