Wanna meet up on the blacktop and trade some Pokemon?

If you bring a basketball, I’m down

The Dunkaroos are a nice touch

I remember going home after football practice and firing up pokemon gold on the ole GBC. Good times. In my grade school days, sonic the hedgehog came on right at 3 PM. I got off the bus at like 2:55 and I lived at the bottom of what felt like a big ass hill (it was for me back then). I had to basically run the hill to get home in time not to miss any. I usually got through the door right when the intro was playing.

The Pocket brings me back to a simpler time. It's basically a time machine.

I love this post so much. Every time I boot my pocket sends me right back to my childhood.

Dunkaroos rule

That was pretty much my weekend short of the Dunkaroos.

Imagine display technology was already so good and accessible 30 years ago.

That's because we were all too young to worry about the capitalist hellscape our world was sinking into. I miss that time too.

I only had 3 GB games 🫠

Oh same here. This is adult money fulfilling childhood shortcomings lol.

I honestly never use my pocket because the dpad on it is just bad, and idk what to do about ot

analogue pockets didn’t exist in the 2000s. this would not have been anyone’s point of view in that decade

Found the fun guy.

... really?

yes the analogue pocket came out in 2021 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analogue_Pocket

Do you have real life friends?

i have thousands of friends who all agree with me that "POV" has a specific meaning other than "here's a description of the vibe of this photo"

Family couldn't afford to provide me with much of any of this.

After school I would just watch DBZ, but I only had Pokemon Red for my GBC, and I got the starter decks for X-Mas. Also in 2000's I had a highly abusive step father, and my mother ran out on us.

I see you had a good childhood. That's nice.

Never denied being bitter. Definitely bitter.
