Nostalgia bomb.
2nd part
I still have that VHS.And looking back, that had to be the most ingenious and diabolical plot to get kids to bug their parents to buy them stuff.
>>7992So that bit about the Pokedex had me wondering... does it have data about all existing Pokemon and only reveals the information when they're captured, or does it generate the information after they're captured?Also, I'm sure that that video was by the same producers as this one. Oh 90s Nintendo.
>>8027The way I see it is when you first see the Pokemon, it records the name and physical appearance. Once you catch it, the ball sends the data to the Pokedex digitally. Like a Pokewalker to a DS.
>>8043Data like old myths and rumors about the Pokemon that people used to say?
>>8044Wynaut?
>>8044That stuff it downloads from the Internet.
>>8070But if it's just looking things up on the Internet, why is completing the Pokedex so important to the Professors?Maybe the kids write the entries themselves. It would explain why some of them seem really exaggerated, Mr Slugma HOTTER THAN THE SUN.
>>8075The myths and stuff is form the Internet, the actual physical data (size, mass, diet, types, evolutions, etc) comes from obtaining them. And I figure the locations is the result of obtaining a Pokemon that others have caught in the wild in the past, and linking up with other Pokedexes to make one big map of locations for that species. If a Pokemon you own has "area unknown" as its location, it means no one with a Pokedex has caught it in the wild yet.
WELL NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT OUR SECRET PLAN EXCEPT FOR A VIDEO TAPE DETAILING IT THAT WAS RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC.I fucking love pokemon.
Dammit, I had so many misconceptions about the show from watching this. LIke thinking Team Rocket did actually win at some point and that footage of Pikachu at Pewter Gym was a battle against a brainwashed Pikachu on the fucking Moon.
>Ash's science teacher>not Professor Oak
Is "Ash's Aunt Hillary" the same person who did the voice for Ash's mother?
