No history of Pokemon is complete without mentioning the infamous Cosby parody. <a class="user" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfULvnWVAv8">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfULvnWVAv8</a>

I remember having to change the game boy color batteries like every week because I played red, blue, and yellow so much. Anyways, this article was nostalgic for meh. Just remembering how it all began...Good times...
