I was born in 2004 lol

Don't underestimate American children. They start out swallowing Kinder Surprise capsules, and by the time they grow old enough for Pokeymans, they're plenty ready for them.

I could never afford one of those

Sorry you missed out. You really had to be there to get it. I was 7 when pokemania hit so it was perfect for me.

Why were parents suffocating their infants with pokeballs instead of using a good old fashioned pillow?

>be in 2nd grade in 1998
>everyone has pokemon cards and people trade or battle each other
>have a pokemon battle against another kid and it was for keepsies (if someone lose they hand over all their cards)
>i lose

>tell the principal
>get my cards back

That was honestly so fucking based of me.

is now a good time to sell these? I think i have 2 unboxed and one in mint box condition

I still have my Pikachu that I dug out of the rubber

I never understood the dumb card craze in the 90s.
But I guess I was just too old to like a kids game.

Only someone with the mindset of a kid would like Pokémon.

Yes? Most people here, if they were even born yet, were kids back when Pokemon was the hottest thing.

You must be at least 40 or something.

Close.
I was still a teenager when it came out.
Never understood why people were crazy for cardboard with cartoons on it.

I did enjoy taking some kid's cards and tearing them up in front of him.
He screamed and cried and acted like he was possessed or something.
Was fuckin hilarious, my friends and I laughed hard at the autistic kid spazzing out.

Imagine losing your mind over some dumb cards.

I did that too. I wanted a pikachu not a fucking ball.

I was here, when retards posted bitcoin guides and even made a wallet but was like meh who cares lol

This never happened btw, I was one of his friends but it was out of pity because he got picked on so much.

Same. I didn't think it was worth trying to buy pizza with, didn't know it would turn into the biggest pyramid scheme ever

People like you made my early years a living hell. Not only did you take my shit and rip it up, you dragged me under the water at the apartment pool, locked me in your rooms, beat the shit out of me despite having a near 10 year age gap on me

I joined the army and killed people because I couldn't kill you

Remember this shit?

Dude lmao, your mom said she'd suck my dick if I let you tear up my cards; everyone knew you had little urges and she thought it would be a good thing for you to just let out all that frustration
And she did man, it was the best head ever, I came deep in her throat and traced her lips with my cock dude

What ever happened to Brock's relationship with Professor Ivy?

Why were these the least rare cards ever?

Godspeed
Kill them all, bro
They all turn into druggies and druglords anyway.

It came with the starter set.

FUCK THIS GAME is so cool

When I was like 7 I thought those were real gold..

How old are you?

S1 was by the Nadesico writer
so probably something sexual but nothing too crazy
Like maybe Brock couldn't get it up, something simple like that

Nice fantasy. We all know /pol/tards like you secretly hate Whites because you’re all American Spics and that is why you try to turn everything into your culture war bs and fantasize about Europeans getting raped. Go back to your containment board.

The one's who turn into druggies are the kids picked on in school.

The ones who became successful are those who pushed the other kids around.

That is just how the world works.
Even that kid who got picked on was just a pawn soldier following orders from the same people who would bully him.

I didn't get revenge, I ended up moving away to another town and never seeing them again. But because I couldn't fight back, I ended up going overseas and killing people who didn't deserve it in thr name of "freedom", all because of this tempered anger at being helpless

Pokemon cards got banned at my private school for some reason but we were never told why.
Do you live in Indiana?

Man, around thanksgiving-Christmas, I was getting my niece and nephew into Pokemon and I didn't remember Ivy being that much of a bonermancer.

Attached: May, Misty and Dawn.jpg (850x850, 173.97K)

I was a teenager too and I knew kids my age who were really into it, but I didn't judge them. I even played the original Pokemon games and they were fun.

You did throw your Poke Ball away or gave it back to Burger King and didn't allow it to get into the hands of another innocent 3-year old victim right Yea Forums?

You have your own board.

Wrong
They are middle class at best
The nerdiest nerds always get to the top, I'm talking Elon, Bill Gates.
You can cope with your day job all you want, your boss was probably a weak nerd and now he gets to bully you
