"For people our age, Pokémon was a catastrophic event."
When we were kids, we trained and evolved monsters in a quest to become a Pokémon Master. We followed Ash Ketchum and Pikachu out of Pallet Town and into the Halls of the Pokémon League decades later. From waiting a week to watch a new episode of the TV show, to grinding through all the subsequent Nintendo video games, to trying to figure out how the trading card game worked, we talk about everything we remember during PokéMania. And also some Yu-Gi-Oh and Digimon dives!
