About time someone uploads this video. I would've ages ago, but never really had the means.

And yes, all those characters are 100% cannon. :mallet:
 
I have this on video and brought it to school to show my friends that I DIDN'T make up the show. "See? Those (Ash's clothes) are the clothes I'm wearing! SEE?! It's going to be the most popular of all time, all over the world! And you heard it here from Ash, your resident Pokemon Master! *flashes "V" sign and begins singing Mezase*" ....I was a stupid little kid.

I remember screaming when I first found out the news online, and then screaming again when I got Nintendo Power's issue on it, and screaming again when I got the video, and nearly had a heart attack on the days that the show premeired, the day the Game Boy games were released, the day the cards were released, etc.

However, I remember being so upset about there being real people (pretending to be relatives/friends of the characters, no less!), and they they pronounced Pokemon wrong as well. And I got really excited that the Japanese cards were shown.

I got excited for the opening theme. XD "I'M GOING TO SEE THAT EVERY MORNING! ON AMERICAN TV! IN ENGLISH!"

Looking back on it, I noticed that they used the unaired/incorrect recording of the Pokerap. Listen for Rapidash's name. If they'd taken a little more time to edit, they would've caught the mistakes that we see in the official.

....Nostalgic. *wipes tear away*
