On September 8, 1998, a morning TV premiere changed pop culture forever. "Pokémon - I Choose You!" broadcast across 111 stations in the US, introducing millions of kids to Ash, Pikachu, and a world of pocket monsters. By the time the Trading Card Game hit shelves in January 1999, that spark turned into an unstoppable global movement. More than a craze, Pokémon became a universal language—connecting kids across cultures, languages, and borders through playground trades and Saturday morning memories.
