Can someone explain this common phenomena?

When we were growing up, a LOT of people could breifly look at the name, base power, accuracy and status effect of a Pokémon move ONE TIME and retain all this information easily for 20 years. It is NOTICABLY easy to memorize various things in Pokémon. Just look once, you've got it understood probably forever. What causes this? It doesn't translate to real life. Most people forgot everything they learned in school or struggled very hard to retain information.

I feel like this has to involve some fundamental as-of-yet unidentified trick to human learning. One that if we could break down, it would revolutionize teaching and memory retention.
