About 10 years ago I decided to try playing the Pokemon Trading Card Game sequel with an English patch, but the patch wasn't actually finished so eventually it went back to Japanese and I got stuck at a trainer who wouldn't let me battle them no matter which dialog option I selected. So I had to start learning some Japanese characters just so I could progress. And I never stopped, so thank you person who didn't finish the patch for being the reason I became bilingual

I remember seeing the Wiiware Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games covered on Serebii and I was forever excited to see them here in Europe. I wanted to get Light Squad :')

Gen 3 really was the generation of experimental spinoffs.

Well technically, the remake mystery dungeon on the switch is also on a home console. Not just the 3 Wii games.

I liked the e-Reader minigames in the TCG, they actually made me more interested in the game for a while.

I like how the title says American never got. WHICH AMERICAN!!! 😭

Funny Pico story. About 3 years ago I pulled up to a Chevron gas station and as I was getting gas, I noticed a Sega pico in the trash can. It was super random. I pulled it out and it had all the wires and 2 storybooks. Took it home, cleaned it up and it worked perfectly. I was blown away. Why would someone throw this away?  I sold it on eBay about a month later for $70.

Trading Card Game 2 is also fun because the opponents on the second island have deckbuilding requirements that you have to meet (like having at least four pikachu in your deck, or having only type of energy). It was a welcome change from the first game, where you can just make a single good deck and steamroll everyone with it.

I loved the concept of the  e-reader peripheral with the trading card game. I loved my e-reader to death and played with it endlessly as a teen. good ol memories.

Just for the record, the Japan exclusive Pokemon Mini games all have fan translations into English available, and emulate quite well. If you're one of the few nerds to actually own one there is a (rather expensive) flash cart to play those translations on the actual console as well, but that flash cart is currently rather hard to get due to parts shortages and they're only being made by a small team.

Holy carp I do remember reading about that PMD demo on the PC. Such a shame it still hasn't been found, but I'm glad yall are asking for assistance with finding, hoping someone out there has it!!!

Every game AMERICAN never got

+1:30 one more thing about imakuni, he plays a HUGE role in the Gameboy release of Pokemon TCG, and that trainer card that is shown on screen actually confuses your own pokemon in battle 🤣 he was like the Tingle of Pokemon

Ouch over 2 years later and nobody corrected that title?

How has the title still not been corrected?

You mentioned the Wii version of Mystery Dungeon as being the only time it appeared on a home console.
I was going to assume you didn't count the Switch as a home console given Rescue Team DX released on the system, but in a previous Pokemon video you did count it as one when talking about Sword and Shield being the first mainline entries on a home console.

I think there's a type-o in the title of the video?

I cannot stress enough how hard that Chespin was getting down 🤯

I wish bad luck to people holding lost media hostage

17:27 here in Chile, the word "pico" means beak, but "pico" is also a slang for "penis". So yeah, "Pico for everyone" made me laugh please help
