“Melanie, I…”

Hi, everybody. This is the tenth edition of the Best and Worst of Pokémon. Thus, this is the 70th day since I’ve started to write about the Pokémon cartoon. Hopefully, this is the first of many days where you’ll be reading it.

This episode is Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village and begins a trilogy of episodes in which Ash serendipitously acquires the three Kanto stater Pokémon, in order of Pokédex number even. This act would, of course, make many young Game Boy players incredibly envious of Ash until Pokémon Yellow came about.

Actually, I, being a dork, didn’t suffer from this envy as I purchased a second-hand copy of Pokémon Blue and using a friend’s Game Boy, kept starting a new game and trading the starters I didn’t have to my Red file. Having disposable starters on hand made for some good trades, I can tell you.

All you cool people reading this, after you’re done reading, why not leave a comment? You can also like this, tweet it and upvote it via those handy buttons at the bottom of the article. Pressing the buttons only takes a split-second and really helps me out so at least do that.

I hope you enjoy this weeks article and, oh look, it’s totally not a link to a video of this very episode.
