I've been a Pokémon fiend since I was in high school. It had become such a persistent and disturbing preoccupation-slash-addiction for me that playing the game had eaten much of my free (and not-so-free) time.
I was able to enjoy my very first Pokémon game despite the fact that it was entirely in Japanese. I had to do a lot of trial-and-error with the commands and menus. Imagine me commanding Pidgey to use Gust but I almost always ended up using Sand-Attack instead. Leveling up is another thing, when you have to choose what techniques to learn, retain and forget making my gameplay quite tasking. If I remember it right, I was able to reach Cerulean City after a grueling eight and a half weeks of wandering aimlessly through Mount Moon. I was still unable to finish the Cerulean Gym though. Hmmm... enough reminiscing for now.
What I actually wanted to do was to share this video shown to me by a colleague. It's just so darned cute! I immediately succumbed to the sugary-sweet-marshmallowy feel of this one. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
Here's where I got this video: http://kotaku.com/382902/no-way-should-pokemon-be-this-cute-like-ever
The Pokémon world is colossal. And great. And amazing. And hey, did I already mention, great?! I can't possibly begin to enumerate the qualities of this astounding game without suffering from a sudden and violent seizure due to the utter lack of oxygen in my brain. I must remember what the doctor said to me in therapy, "Remember to breathe and you'll just be fine." I'll be saving the gorier details of my (mis)adventures with this game for another time. That's it for now. ;)
