>Still no Pokemon

I can't believe that for 1995 years there was no pokemon, its been around my whole life.
>>
>>57019783
Why is he in black and white? Color photography existed in 1995
>>
>>57019793
You know what didn't exist? A colour GameBoy
>>
>>57019783
1 year before the end.
>>
>>57019803
A Gameboy with colors would be cool to see.
>>
I remember '97ish being the last year of schoolyard normalcy before the tech fads completely took over. Seems like Overnight we suddenly had tamigotchi, Pokemon, Pokemon cards, Furbys MP3 Players, those freaky robot dog things...

>off model
it's shit
>>
>>57019971
It wasn't too bad anon, just a very sudden and abrupt change from a more simple time. The 90s were truly based though, I wish you could've been there too.
>>
>>57019803
Cool kids were playing their Game Boy games on their SNES
>>
I wonder how many people stateside knew what Pokemon was before it was released internationally (excluding like localizers and such)

What the fuck even is this?
>>
y'know, actually, genuine question
I (2004) never really got to see the world without pokemon being anywhere and everywhere. what was it like, anons?
>>
>>57020284
Basically the same except without everyone walking around with Gameboys and trading cables.

In fact it amazes me that Pokemon basically had a second period of Pokemania with Pokemon go. Has any other franchise had this kind of effect?

And I can't believe that billions of years before that there were no Pokemon. Imagine sitting around in the primordial Earth's lava a few billion years ago waiting for Pikachu to be invented...
>>
>>57022238
how do you know there weren't Pokemon billions of years ago? were you there?
>>
>>57019783
There weren't publicly in 1995 but they did exist in that year. There's a reason the Pokemon copyright says 1995.
>>
>>57022719
And?
>No games
>No show
>No merch
>No fanbase
I don't think the franchise can really count as existing until it has released some sort of product anon.

largely the same except that suddenly this new game came along that perfectly adressed my interest in animals, outside adventures, camping etc and had enough maturity in it to still be really compelling.
it was annoying when you were a fan and adults or other kids thought you are just someone being a consoomer and hopping on a trend, but there will always be retards.

not having smartphones is really way more of an impactful difference, thinking back and I wouldn't end up owning one until 2012 into my adulthood.
not having developed as a being and person alongside smart devices really does make a difference

t. 1991 fag

>>57023433
This is basically a blueprint, Pokemon still does not exist when these are made..
>>
>>57019783
underrated creativity OP, bumping for that
