    One of my most cherished memories when it comes to Pokémon was going to the city to go to the game shop, since we didn’t have any in our region at the time.
    Walking in, May 3rd of 1999 and seeing a copy of Pokémon Blue on the shelves when the PAL release was still half a year away.

    Someone traded in a mint US copy and the shopkeepers didn’t know what it even was, so they put it on sale for just €15.
    That was one heck of a summer! 😁
