THERE IS 722 POKÉMON NOT 718
First game Pokémon red version. 7 years old. Childhood Oh I miss you
800 episodes. there are 315 days in a year. And Ash is still 10 years old ‑_-
Shut up, Leo just won a fucking Oscar!
1996, I’m 7 yrs old same as Taylor Swift
What a coincidence my birthday was on the same day as the release of the first Pokemon
This is more or less just a timeline and doesn’t answer the question posed in the title.
it didn’t take over the world It evolved it
But… you’re not answering the question…
Superbowl commercial? What the? When!?
I like his voice. Different is cool 🙂
Awesome.…
2016: It’s not 718 Pokémon. It’s 720/721/722 pokemon, depending if you are counting Volcanion and Magearna.
They never explained the HOW. They simply stated some facts about the franchises beginning and its current states, skipping the most important details about the franchise’s development, including the title’s proposition. Worst Pokemon fact video ever.
722 Pokemon not 718
So happy I was there from the start
Wtf is a Pikachu?

emerald forever
Let Ash win a damn league!!! (Kalos please end it here)
720* not 719
Do you wanna battle? ‘Cuz my balls are at the ready!
This is not at all informative. Snorrrrzzzzzzzzzz.… instead talk about the real people moving behind it. Who licensed the characters in the US? ( I know who)
Who else noticed at 2:00 the globe had yo-gi-oh cards on it too??
old pokemon looks so much better …
Awesome I like that u fat bich
There are 721 pokemon
Pronounced Pokémon wrong.
and it just got way better
I will not count remakes as spinoff because it’s a remake of the main games
