<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="777">12:57</a> That "I'm glad I saved you" was so wholesome oh my god I'm gonna cry

that pokeball rayquaza story feels ripped from my mind, my brother got a rayquaza and i got a beautifly and it was probably the first time i realized life was pointless

The Delcatty story reminds me of when me and my family where vacationing at South Carolina and while we were eating at a Burger King we randomly found a Munna toy sitting near the trash so we picked it up and to this day it’s still happily sitting at my bookshelf.

I remember browsing a VERY early form of the Pokémon Center website in like 2001-2002. Every now and then I’d beg my mom to buy some stuff on there. Turns out, a lot of the stuff I ordered on there is pretty rare now. I wish I kept all of it but I still have a lot of cool stuff from there. Also spent a lot of time on EBay then too. My favorite pastimes as a little kid lol

Every few minutes in this video I kept saying, "Oh yeah I had one of those" Might still have some of them somewhere Nice trip down memory lane

I find it adorable that your mum is in your contacts as "mother dearest." That's girafarig levels of cute!

The little pencil toppers here in Italy were bundled kinda with every food item available, I remember finding a Charmander and a Lotad from a pack of chewing gums and a treeko from a bag of chips. But again, pokémon merch in those years was crazy, you could find the most horrible bootlegs at any beach shop in Italy, and every kid used to have a lot of them because they were soooooo cheap

I was around at Pokemania in the 90s. It was wild. I remember Pokemon Poptarts, Cereal, Bath salts, Macaroni and Cheese, and like a whole bunch of Burger King toys which I still have to this day. I also remember this fat pikachu toy that you squeeze it's paw and it's ears wiggle and it's cheeks light up and it talks. That was defiantly the coolest pokemon thing I owned.

Everybody's favorite Pink Poketuber has blessed us once again

(<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="732">12:12</a>) Lucy's mother is so sweet. If she didn't save smol Lucy from that Pog, we wouldn't have all of these great Pokemon videos many years later.

I can’t begin to tell you how much I love your content. You’re almost exactly a month younger then me and I relate so much to your content. I also have autism and it seems like you do as well. You’re a true inspiration, keep doing what you’re doing!

A lot of these I have never heard of as an American, but they're a really neat piece of Pokémon history. The first merch I remenber owning was a pichu pencil topper that came from a box of poptarts in the early 2000's. I used to get keychain figures in the gacha machines at the front of Toys R US and trade extras with kids too lol

My mom was in Japan in 1999 during the Pokemon craze and bought some Meiji chocolate tins with Pokemon on them. I believe there were six variants after doing some research. This was during the Orange Islands arc in the anime. So I had these mini tins of Pikachu, Psyduck, and Jigglypuff. My cousin later gave me one he'd found in his house; my aunt had bought one with my mom in 1999. It was another Pikachu one. There were apparently two Pikachu variants in the set. That inspired me to do research and I discovered there was also a Lapras one and a Togepi one. I bought the Lapras one from a second-hand Japanese website and I found a collector in Poland selling the Togepi one. So I'm now the proud owner of the 1999 Meiji chocolate Pokemon collaboration tin can set. Who knows how many people in this world have all six cans from that year? How many outside of Japan?

I can explain the Tail-less Treecko. The material those toys were made out of was just soft enough to make you THINK you could bend them, but if you bent them too far they'd break off. It meant the small bits like feet and hands wouldn't be brittle and snap, but large pieces with giant grab points like tails were frequently popular points to fidget with until the material finally gave up and ripped.

"It only cost me 90 pounds, but can you put a price on your childhood?" Is such a hard line unironically

Yessss finally someone talks about the candy containers! I wish they came back, I loved them so much! The candy was like the chalkiest thing ever but the price was so cheap for a little figurine and a pokeball and they were fun to collect

Im greek, and when you brought up the Dog Tags, I INSTANTLY was reminded of all of my friends collections. In greece we actually call them Τάπες (Tah-pes), and we would play a game with them, we would each put one on the ground, and then take turns hitting them with another tag, hoping they would flip over. If your opponents one was flipped, you got to keep it for your own. And yes, there are still SO MANY to this day, and not only with pokemon: theres also football Τάπες, basketball Τάπες, pokemon Τάπες, minecraft Τάπες, Brawl Stars Τάπες, literally anything. Anyway, i thought this bit of insight onto this might be cool/intresting for ppl to read ^^ Love your videos and your channel!! 🙌🙌

The Togepi dying had me dying 😂

This was easily the most nostalgic I’ve ever felt watching a video. Every sequence was unlocking new memories!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="506">8:26</a> As a person who has tried the Gastly bread, I can confirm it does taste like chocolate :D + I got a Jolteon sticker from it ⚡

Hearing Candy talking about Pokémon WAPs feels surreal

So, you unlocked a forgotten memory of mine with that Togepi room greeter, lol. Also, I won't lie, I lost my Mom last year, and "I'm glad I saved you" kind of made me tear up a little bit.

I loved these metal tags! I collected them a lot, forced my mom to buy me a bunch because they only were sold at one shop near me. Sadly when I got older and we moved some stuff around my room I was forced by my parents to throw them away :c Also, I'm from Germany and the tags were German so it wasn't just a uk thing

I have a whole box at home with old pokemon stuff from when I was a kid - you seriously opened up memory lane for me haha. I do have some of the pencil toppers too, however, a different series I think and I got them from a capsule automate on the canary islands (a lot of the stuff I got from there). I only remember a manaphy and a mime jr. one rn but I had more. Also, the same figures in at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="408">6:48</a>!! I got Snorunt, Glalie, again Manaphy and also Mantyke. Otherwise gacha related were these pokemon mystery dungeon keychains as well as small figurines with one of the explorer pokemon on some piece of land and you could connect all the land pieces to from some sort of circle and story line if you collected them all. Also, I vaguely remember owning multiple sets of a three tier evolution line of some pokemons, but I only recall the Turtwig-Grotle-Torterra one. They were TINY and I was so scared I'd lose a piece eventually. One of the most random things to me is this huge masterball I own with a Deoxys figurine on rolls which you could shoot out from it. Coolest is my gen1 pokedex^^ As for plushies, I got the same Psyduck one as you as a child haha, including a Blastoise and Poliwhirl from I think the same line? They look really similiar at least... And a bunch of different ones later on. 'Weirdest' are these pokeball plushies which you can turn inside out and I have a Maril which pops out its huge tail which somehow makes me laugh everytime. This ended up longer than I wanted it to be, but maybe someone else will enjoy me reminiscing my childhood. ^^

Seeing Mighty Beanz again unlocked a core memory for me. I didn’t have Pokémon beanz, just Simpsons themed beanz

A few days ago I got my first Pokemon merchandise: a Sylveon plushie and a t-shirt with Serena printed on it. Since the Pokemon Centre doesn’t ship to my country, I was ecstatic when I got them.

While much more recent, the closest I have to an old pokemon merchandise is my Zekrom toy from McDonalds. Not sure how popular Pokemon was in Bulgaria at the time, but they had toys of the legendaries and starters from Black and White that came with Happy Meals nonetheless. I also got a Tepig one who's tail is supposed to glow if it has batteries in it that also came with some common Pokemon cards, but for some reason the Zekrom one was the one I wanted the most. I still have both to this day. Surprisingly in good quality too considering what a monster I was as a kid.

My dad briefly worked for one of the companies in charge of introducing tazos to the mexican market, and one day he arrived with a whole tray in his hand of special tazos with six bendy parts each featuring scenes from the Pokemon 2000 movie. As a kid, those were my greatest treasure, and only on the most special of days would I bring a few out to school to bend, stack and bet against other kids' collections. I gifted a lot of them over my teenage years, but I've still got a tin box full to the brim with them kicking around somewhere alongside the bionicles and bayblades that haven't left their boxes since moving houses some 15 years ago.

As a greek person i can confirm those metal tags are still everywhere its a huge thing kids in school fight with those by flipping them and whoever wins gets the others metal tag we call the "tapes" here

As someone that lives in Greece, metal tags, be it Pokemon, Football or anything else, are still pretty popular, especially with kids.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="455">7:35</a> OMG I love those! Re ments are amazing!

I loooved these! The capsule machines were most memorably in cinemas! I got a Manaphy and was obsessed with it 🤩

Back in the early 2000s I got one of those Burger King Pikachu plushies that somehow managed to remain in my dad's various homes following many moves over the years until ending in the hands of my younger siblings during the mid 2010s. It was even placed alongside a newer plastic Pikachu figurine in the shelfs, and that cross generation meetup was a great thing to see.

Can confirm the pokeball treeko was my first pokemon thing ever and his tail immediately broke off 😅

This video is so wholesome. I hope Lucy and anyone watching this wonderful channel have a great day :)

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="602">10:02</a> - "I had a friend or realitive who had the same bank, but Pikachu sounded like it was getting kidnapped by Team Rocket!"

Seeing the rayquaza and entei collections warm my heart I have an entire spot dedicated to eevee in my room,respect

you.... you unlocked the weirdest memory for me with the metal tags, I remember _having_ those, I would always clink them together. God thats such a throwback

Naming your mom "Mother Dearest" in your phone is so unapologetically British, I love it

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="430">7:10</a> i have those!! You've just awoken memories in me i didnt know i still had, thank you :D

Earlier this year I went to a restaurant with my family and noticed one of those capsule machines mentioned at the start of the video. No idea if they're the same ones but I got a very weird looking Charizard. There was a kid staring at the machine as we were leaving and I kinda wish I gave him the Charizard but I thought that might be weird. Now he sits proudly on my desk.

I unlocked so many childhood core memories with this video. I HAD A FUCK TON of tazos, they were metallic here in south America and the Waps? WE HAD THOSE TOO ! Man, I wonder what happened to my waps and tazos...

what a trip down memory lane, you've unlocked some core memories from my childhood. I had at last on of every obscure toy you showed in this video but only remembered owning maybe two. Now, i have an itching urge to buy a view waps for myself after being struck by a wave of nostalgia and memorys that have been lost for a good 15 years after seeing them in your video omg

I remember getting pokemon tazo from chips when i was a child. I still remember getting ariados from it. They were so cool, shame i lost all of them.

I'm over in the Netherlands and my local game store actually has one of those Pokémon capsule machines! Might try it out soon for nostalgia's sake

I have a lot of pokemon stuff to this day, but one of the weirdest things of it is a bootleg pokemon towl. Its written "Pochemon" with bootleg Ash looking right into your soul

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="670">11:10</a>, i used to go to Greece on holiday every year as a kid. You won't believe how much bootleg stuff they sell there for tourists. Yu-gi-oh cards, pokemon merch, Medabots toys, beyblades and just mountains and mountains of china level bootleg stuff. It was an absolute nightmare for my mom XD

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="903">15:03</a> Lucy pays taxes to the Pringles man

I'm from Brazil and I totally remember the Pokemon Waps! Panini was definitely a big part of my childhood

Man some of these old memories bring a tear of joy to my eye love walking down memory lane with other pokenerds

Great job CandyEvie! Collecting all the WAPs was truly an accomplishment, personally I really enjoyed this video. I can tell you put a lot of work into this.

Here in Brazil, around the 2000s, we had a promotion that came with bottles of Guaraná soda, it was very successful at the time 😅

One weird Pokemon toy I had was a Meowth with a marble on the bottom to roll. I gave it to a friend when he told me he was moving away, only to be surprised when he moved back years later and returned it to me! I'm not sure if I still have it, but that's probably one of my favorite memories.

I collected a ton of those little Pokeball candy containers from the later gen 4 era and had SO many of the Heatrans that lost all four of their legs because of how incredibly tiny the joints were 😂

1. We both have our mums saved as Mother Dearest in our phones 😂 2. I have a jar of Pokémon marbles which are cool

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="793">13:13</a> these came to Brazil too! I loved how pretty they were. It was also through Panini with the Stickers Album

If the Italian surprise eggs are anything like kinder eggs, I'm pretty certain they sold them in poundshops or those sort of shops. I distinctly remember having three gen 3 pencil toppers and never being able to get any more

I had that piggy bank. I drove my mom up the walls with it. "Pi-Ka Pikachuuu" was permanently ingrained in my mind.

This video just solved a childhood mystery of "where the hell did we get these figures", the topps candy containers were fresh in my mind but i never remembered the name. I even found the exact one with heatran and froslass that me and my sister got when we were little.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="718">11:58</a> can't believe I'm seeing Latvian Tazos in your video! And these are so nostalgic, I still have these from my childhood!

I have some of those metal dog tags things, and the chain which I wore around my neck and felt cool as hell with. I was also around during the original Pokemania, got tons of plushes (including a bootleg Pikachu), Burger King toys, gold Poliwhirl metal card thing, and a knock off Golbat ring (?)

think i remember a tiny gameboy-shaped thing, that was basically an enclosed view-master, it had stock pokemon art when looked inside, you could even change the picture. also vending machine pokemon figures which was basically tiny statues inside hard seethrough plastic with a solid colored flat base.

So glad you just unlocked a childhood core for me, bc i was thinking about the pokemon toys i grew up with, specifically the pikachu toys, and i remember owning a pikachu room greeter since i like to press the button and then a few presses the part of the theme song came on, I didnt know what it was at that time until you brought up the togepi one and I was hit with nostalgia, thanks for reminding me, greetings from the US!

I remember Pokemon Tazos!!! They came in bags of snacks, like Lays, cheetos and doritos (at least here in Chile). I got a lot of them, but they've been lost to time. The other thing that I remember are the pencil toppers that came in dry pasta packs (the ones from Lucchetti). I got the dark green Jigglypuff, and I think it is among the pokemon toys I gave my nephew.

I actually always wanted to have a big pokemon merch collection as a kid but never had, so i always relieved myself by watching Lucy's merhes videos :')

I had that same exact Pikachu piggy bank when I was a kid! Whenever you put a coin into it, Pikachu would make one of two sounds (either "PIIIIIIIIIIKA PIKACHUUUUUU" or "PIKA PIKA PIKAAAAAAAAA"), both of which were incredibly LOUD and recorded by the voice actor in a way that made it sound like Pikachu was in extreme pain. It was hilarious, terrifying, and financially responsible all in one go! 😂 Thank you, Lucy, for the blast from the past! 🙌🌟✨

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="487">8:07</a> I still got my 3 stickers greeting me from my laptop every time I open it. Back in 2018 when I was studying abroad in Japan I made sure to put some cream bread or curry bread for like 1-2 € each in my shopping cart when I went to get groceries. Good times.

My favourite thing in this video, growing up at the same time in the same country, is the fact you also call your mum mother dearest 😂

Back in 2021 during Black Friday I was at the mall to get Brilliant Diamond (at GameStop), when I saw a stand that had a bunch of Pokémon plushies that functions as a car Window hanger. I bought a Dragonite, Snorlax, and a weird one that's a combination of Eevee but with the colors of Jolteon!

This reminds me of the time I was at my primary schools summer fair and someone was selling bootleg Pokémon figures at a stall. I bought one. I think it was a Treeko. Recently, I found a bunch at my collectors shop where I bought a latios

My local Cinema recently got capsule machines with Pokémon in it, they come in poke ball-shaped capsules. And the staff is pretty chill. They let me pick whatever Pokémon I wanted each time I went there

Growing up in Australia we had a lot of the same stuff. I had some pokemon marbles, probably some of the tazos, some misc non-pokemon beanz, and some rectangular plastic tazo-adjacent cards of Scyther and Kabutops (from chip packets) which had that "tilt to see the other image" thing going on. I also had a few plastic figures from 20ish years ago, the only surviving member being a really cool transparent Gengar figure which I squeezed into a tiny jar a few years ago and have not been able to pull back out since lmao

You’re not crazy, the gacha machines were totally a thing in France too! I got a goot articulated Dialga from one of these balls, at the beach. And some other figurines.

2004?? Pokemon boom and toy store in the 90s was beautiful ;w; also, POKEBALLS WERE EUROPE ONLY?! Such a huge part of my childhood..Still have mine, whole evolution line of squirtle in those figures and lugia and entei being my prized little ones 😁

So what you could say is that you’re a POG champ *wheeze laughs

It was many years after they stopped production, but when I was little and I loved Pokemon, my grandpa bought me those cheap pokemon figures that came with the candy containers in bulk, just without the candy and containers. I’m pretty sure I gifted them on a valentines day, but I do remember pretending to make a pokemon battle with two figures.

I remember as a child in the early 2000's spending all my time at the 2p machines winning pokemon plastic figures with metal ball-bearing inside them... But there long lost to time 😅 never seen them again.

The bootleg metal tags are pretty interesting. At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="661">11:01</a> it says "The authentic metal tags" on the box. Right... I'm sure they are. :P I'll buy some if I find them.

Omg! I had that Mantyke, Weavile and that Volbeat as a kid too. I even destroyed the Volbeat's little antennas like you did as well. So bizarre because I was thinking of what became of that little Volbeat the other day and where on earth it came from 🤣 I think I also had a Regigigas one too where you had to assemble his arms and legs to his body.

This was such a cool watch, I had at least one of all the things you talked about 😂 very nostalgic video haha

Those Topps Poke Ball figures! That brought back some nostalgia! I don't remember ever seeing them in anything other than a normal Poke Ball, but I remember having the Lickilicky and Mantyke ones as a kid. I also had a tiny Eevee plushie that came in a similar Poke Ball packaging.

Oh my ... I'm from Germany and I still have some of those metal dog tags in a box lying around in my apartment! So crazy ... this is like pre Gen 4 merch. I also have some plastic see-through cards with gen 3 Pokémon (not normal TCG cards) and those waps you showed at the end, they also sold them in Germany. Truly, some weird stuff xD

omg, I'm so glad you made this video. Really refreshes my memory. I've found soooo many figures in my parents' attic when I moved out, and now I clearly remember where they're from: Those Topps pokeballs! I've even got a clear Shaymin Sky Forme figure from them. Weirdly though, according to the pokemon collector's wiki at least, there's no clear Shaymin figure, only a clear Pikachu... maybe there were different lines in different countries?

You've brought back so many memories with this video, thanks!

I remember those, but there was this Japanese import store with bins of figurines, both real and not.

This was such a nostalgic trip! I’m from the US, and mighty beanz was a favorite toy of me and my friends. I’m pretty sure I had a Pikachu bean but I don’t remember where I got it from. A lot of mom and pop shops I go to still have those gacha machines, usually about a quarter, 25¢ to 75¢. Gum balls and temporary tattoos were my favorites as a kid

Omg I remember getting a random Pokémon figure from some capsule machine when I was a kid! I’m pretty sure in the early 2000s stores just shoved whatever they could fit into those little capsule things lol

I remember getting a lugia watch from the burgerking kids meal, back as promotional items for pokémon 2000.

God I had so many things from those capsules, and some of those beans. Sadly I think they all got thrown out many many years ago when Pokémon became ‘uncool’.

OMG I still have my Waps case! Never finished the collection and my parents definitely disapproved of more plastic tat. Metal tags and beans too- anthing cheap and collectible was my jam. Thank you for this lovely trip down memory lane :)

Hearing about Pokemon Bread Stickers is hilarious because if you're watching live streams of new anime episodes you will always hear the "pokemon pan" advert, it's got a really catchy song

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="662">11:02</a> , as a Greek person I can confirm we have a problem with these tags, every time I go to Greece for holiday I see so many boxes of these that you could built a 3 story house out of them

It’s a good day when Lucy uploads

Very glad I managed to get my complete Waps collection for like £28, I think maybe 2-3 years ago. I also very much had a lot of nostalgia for them and kept forgetting their name, so I was so happy to find a complete set for so cheap. Weirdly tho, I swear the prices jumped after I bought it. I'm actually also collecting similarly odd/ interesting gen 3 products, which I've named my "Pokémon Corner Shop Collection", since they're all stuff I imagine being available in a corner shop or in shops like Spar (where I used to get my Gen 3 dog tags). The collection includes Waps, Dog Tags, Cracks, Chipz, Lamincards and I think some other stuff. Basically if it's made by Topps or Panini and is Gen 3 related, it's likely a part of the collection.

This unlocked some memories! I was born in 92 so i was there when pokémon became huge, and i'm still a big fan to this day. I had marbles (i even remember having a big one with Nidorina on it), pogs, bouncing balls... I remember cereals too, with little marshmallow bits like Lucky Charms. I have the exact same Psyduck plushie too! And a couple old pikachus from late 90s to early 00s.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="37">0:37</a> Raichu is my favorite!

You know the day's gonna be good when Lucy uploads a new video

The Tazoos also used to come in bubblegum :) I remember cause I still have two of them with the tazoos. Also I fucking loved the metal tags AND the waps!!

I had hair ties that had marbles with pokemon printed on them. I loved banging the marbles together 😂
