Pokemon just died.
It’s really hard to believe, but it’s really happening
It’s the end.
The last relic of my childhood will be gone, likely forever
And yet,
Am I okay?
It feels like yesterday, I was on the verge of losing my cool because the last bastion of hope had been disintegrated, without a trace left to remember it by
How can I be so calm about this?
Maybe it’s because I never left the second era of pokemon
Maybe it’s because a little kid named Ike is still back in his old hause, at a birthday party
Maybe it’s because Ike’s brother just gave him his copy of sapphire (classic)
Maybe it’s because all along, I never left that bedroom at 4 am, under the covers, playing sapphire.
Maybe it’s because I never left the friends I made on that cartridge
Maybe it’s because I still have all of them with me
Maybe it’s because no matter how many generations gamefreak pumps out, I’ll still be on sapphire, remembering my first ever pokemon friends
I’ll still be on platinum, remembering the tournaments my friends and I would organize for our schools
I’ll still be on heartgold, exploring every nook and cranny of the world
I’ll still be on black-2, the first year I got into competitive and got my ass properly kicked
I’ll still be on X, the first time I ever beat my brother in a pokemon battle, and the last time we ever called each other ‘friends.’
I’ll still be on alpha sapphire, looking at all the friends I had since r/s/e in 3d
I’ll still be in alola, the last place where you can still catch ‘em all
I’ll never leave my partners behind, just like how I’ll never leave the memories of the good pokemon games behind.
Pokemon might be dead, but I won’t forget my bros. I’ll keep my bros until good games come out again, and that will be our day to return. I’ll see you then, chads.
