Pokemon is celebrating 20 years as a franchise and we are celebrating by sharing some of our forum member’s first Pokemon memories. After all, when else will you be able to reminisce in some of your first fondest Pokemon moments.
This time we are featuring Chakramaster and their love for Pikachu. This electric rodent Pokemon has been with Chakramaster for a long time and is the reason why they are such a devoted Pokemon fan. Read below to see how Pikachu has pulled Chakramaster through the good times and the bad times.
Well it’d be a seriously long story for something like that to be answered. Long enough to need to be blogged lol. So here’s a short, cut, and easy version.
I started out with Pokemon Blue. Everyone here knows my favorite now, but back in Blue era….my favorite was Blastoise. It wasn’t until a year later I got stuck with Pikachu. After that everything was Pikachu for me. I got the special Pikachu Gameboy Color (with Yellow Version). Pikachu plushes, rings, cards, T-Shirts you name it. First movie came out and seeing Pikachu on the big screen made me one small giddy little kid lol. Enough to smile so much I had it basically trying to hide right in the back of someone’s head in the theatre (seriously no joke I remember being pulled back by my dad in the theatre because I was all over them without them even noticing). My brother couldn’t stop laughing at me either.
After being “out” of Pokemon for awhile around the Ruby/Sapphire gen….it’s all really thanks to the Mystery Dungeon games for pulling me back in. Seriously again the whole thing with Pikachu kicked in again (even though the online version of the test gave me Machop). The first time playing the actual game I got Pikachu. After PMD Explorers of Darkness…I’d say officially I made Pokemon one of my games to play again.
