I only watched a couple seasons as a child but i played the crap out of the pokémon games. I will watch all of the series know(i'm watching xy xyz back ATM)
Dude I had tears in my eyes the entire time watching this. Brings back so many happy memories for me. I still watch it even at 36 years old pokemon holds a special place in my heart

I'm 28 and it will NEVER get old❤ Pokémon forever ♾️ this franchise will exist long after we are all gone "doesn't that make it more REAL than anybody?" ❤🙏🍀
Watching this at 29 reminded me of my childhood and gave me sheer happiness.... Goosebumps going down my back crazy feeling and it makes me realize how good 90's kids had it :) #90'swereamazing!
I'm just turning 29 and Pokémon was just such an obsession for me. I can't believe how much it just affected me hearing this dude belt out that theme live, it's like being a little kid with his gameboy again.
I'm 29 years old, grew up in a middle class neighbourhood in west London and let me tell you the 90s and early 2000s were literally a Golden age we will never see again. A mere memory unfortunately. The young generation today have no idea what they have missed. In those days the kids in my area would go crazy over this cartoon and we would play pokemon fire and red straight after an episode on our game boy advances.
This legit brought a tear to my face, hearing him live and get that recognition he deserves just made me so insanely happy! This song will live on in us forever and no matter how old we get as soon as you hear the song you immediately want to sing along to it.
Even though Indigo League came out 8 years before I was even born, I still get goose bumps watching this. This theme is immortal. It has, I guess you could say "travelled far and wide" through several generations and I hope it continues to do so. This song means more to pokemon fans and gaming fans in general than many people will ever understand. Thank you to Jason Paige, John Siegler and John Loeffler for creating one of the finest pieces of music full stop. Thank you all so much :)
The nostalgia hits hard with this song. I was born in 1990! I was 9 when I started collecting the cards. I’m now 32 and still collecting Pokémon cards and my daughter is 10 and I buy her and surprise her with packs weekly. We’ve bonded more over Pokémon cards then anything else.
Born in 88’. Just. It sounds so silly but this was the show the theme sing along with mighty morphin power rangers to my childhood. It is a life goal to get on stage and sing Pokémon with Jason Paige. Or at the very least see him perform in concert. And yes. I will cry from nostalgia
This song is the theme song of whole generation across the world in different languages. How could you not like it if you're born in 90's? This brings back so much memories...
I am a 40 year old LITTLE GIRL right now! My inner child is crying and i have the biggest goosebumps of my life! This song guided me through my childhood and i love that Jason still sings it with such a great power! Thanks for uploading this gem! ❤️❤️❤️
literally memories keep coming into my head, i still have the very first pokemon movie on VCR, Every time i remember that movie i can remember crying over the part when charizard got stuck in that hole and i started balling my eyes out as a kid and when he escaped i was on my feet cheering my favorite pokemon on!
After 20 years this Phenomenal Show has run its course-to me it ended with Ash standing as the champion. And I was bawling like a baby at the realization. Jason has sooo much energy!!! The comments on youtube has rightly dubbed him "THE OLDEST TEEN ALIVE" 🤣
I feel like an extremely high percentage of people dont actually know the rest, I didnt even find out there was a second half until around the time pokemon go came out
This honestly made me a little bit emotional. It's just an awesome thing and I was so glad, I grew up on this, yugioh, digimon etc. It was such a great time to be a kid....Brings tears to my eyes.
Same man same. I still have and play Pokémon every day and I went on a hunt for my original digimon toys from my childhood (and I found them) and I have my favorite yugioh cards and I play the game weekly
shed tears listening to this because it reminds me of a world where kids could play outside or walk anywhere without the fear of being kidnapped,stalked,,etc..
As good as the TV show was & as much as I loved playing the game, this damn theme song was what Pokemon was about. I don't remember specific moments of the series, or countless fun hours I spent playing the game boy games, first & foremost I remember the theme tune. I'll never forget the fun I had thanks to Pokemon. Jason Page, you are a legend
I got to know pokémon while i was still in Germany, around the age of 5-6. More than 20 years later I found and bought on ebay an original copy of the german version of the CD. Shall I open it?
The Pokemon Introduction Theme song is one of my favorite things to play on the Piano. I learned to play it by ear. What is funny is when other Adults hear the music without the lyrics, they like the melody. Then, they are shocked and even embarrassed when they learn it's Pokemon.
I wasn't too into pokemon when I was a kid. It was my brother more into it. Then I started dating my boyfriend and he is addicted to it and got me into it. I'm still learning but I still love playing it ☺️
@@derpderp7940 of course they can feel about it the same way. don't you take that away from them. I feel strongly about many games from the 80s I grew up with despite being born shortly after
What a blessing to watch pokemon definitely will live on , on us 90s babies but also the next generation but it started with us 😏 and I'm blessed for that #gottacatchemall
To this day each time I hear this song I cry my eyes out 😊 Like any clip anything that comes my way that has pokemon and the songs its like I cant control myself. #pokemonforever ❤
Pokemon will forever hold a special place in my heart. I'm so glad I was born in the right generation

Real Pokémon
Jason Paigerot is Pokémon

If i were that guy, i'd say "Jason Paige, i choose you!"
i'd burst out crying happy tears
Now THAT'S how you make an entrance
Now that Akira has passed away, we need the original singer of "Cha la head cha la" from Dragon Ball Z to do this as well.
I think this song hits so hard because as kids, it showed us a world full of possibilities and what the world could be if we wanted.
And then 9/11 happened, killing our innocence. Sigh. I miss the late 90s. SO much.
Jason Pagie is the voice of a generation
I'm 28 and it will NEVER get old❤ Pokémon forever ♾️ this franchise will exist long after we are all gone "doesn't that make it more REAL than anybody?" ❤🙏🍀

I rarely cry listening to a song, But this had me tear up, countless memories
Too many to count. I miss being a kid so fucking much
#POKEMON_FOREVER
same here !
You definitely aren't the only one
I keep thinking about the episode that Brock and Misty left, these images will never get away from my eyes.
*Waits entire life to hear this song live*
*Singer is completely drown out by crowd*
Yea, watching the intro of pokemon just doesn't feel the same, this is when i can see it and everyone goes REEEEE
Now I can die peacefully.
Maybe it’s being from a place where the crowd routinely drowns out the singer…but I’m not sure we heard the same thing.
i saw this LIVE! its amazing
FeatureEcho I’m glad you stopped by to relive it! It was incredible wasn’t it! I love Pokémon
Where was this I wanna see him live
