This era was the height of civilisation—right at the dawn of the internet—when Pokémon reached its greatest form. It was unmistakably Japanese in style and spirit, long before the franchise started bending itself to other influences. Everything being done on your PC felt revolutionary at the time, and it captured a sense of discovery that has never quite been matched since.

As a Pokémon fan, you honestly never need to leave the Orange Islands. There’s more than enough wonder and atmosphere here to last a lifetime. No Dynamaxing, no Gigamaxing, no triple types—just pure, classic Pokémon at its absolute best.
