Blastoise: Why I Fell In Love with Pokemon Blue

​Why did I pick Pokémon Blue over Pokémon Red back in the 90s? In today’s video, I’m taking a nostalgic trip back to 1999 to revisit the height of the Pokémon craze in the UK. From seeing those iconic Red and Blue boxes lined up on the shelves at Woolworths to powered-up battles on a purple Game Boy Color, I’m sharing why Blastoise and the Blue version won my heart. ​We dive deep into the magic of the Kanto map, the struggle of choosing between Squirtle and Bulbasaur, and the legendary experience of using a Link Cable to "Catch 'em All." Whether you were a Red, Blue, or Yellow player, this is a celebration of the era that changed gaming forever. ​In this video, we discuss: ​The 1999 Pokémon launch on Sky One and the UK craze. ​Why the Blastoise box art made Pokémon Blue the must-have version. ​Memories of playing on the Nintendo Game Boy Color. ​My favorite Gen 1 Pokémon team (Squirtle, Beedrill, Nidoking, and more). ​The transition from the Pokémon anime to the Game Boy RPG.
