It is safe to say Pokémon GO has brought back 20 years of nostalgia, with it breaking records for being the fastest/most downloaded app ever. Increasing the share price for Nintendo (before it was realised that Nintendo weren’t actually the developers), and causing the price for the original Pokémon Blue and Red games to increase massively on eBay.
With all this success, Jason Paige – the singer of the original Pokémon cartoon from the 90’s, has taken to the recording studio, to show that he can still hit all the high notes.
It’s been 2 decades since he recorded the intro and as you can see in the video below, he still has all of the enthusiasm and the voice he had all those years ago.
Pokémon is now in it’s 19th season, making it one of the longest running animated series on TV and the franchise’s 19th feature film, Volcanion and the Mechanical Magerna, which was released a few weeks ago in Japan.
SNIKT!
You know what I always wondered? Who the heck the brown-haired lady was that Pikachu runs under in the opening. Did she ever get introduced?
