Man my brother's and I were such nerds back then for pokemon (now too lbr). Idk how but my brother was able to get his hands on Japanese copies of Pokemon Stadium and Pokemon Green before they came out in the US. We felt sf cool being able to play it before anyone else even tho we didn't understand shit lol.

i got a “family portrait” tattoo with something representing my immediate family. brother chose master ball, i chose net ball, my ma is a ketchup bottle and my dad a can of sardines. three cocktail wieners are on the edges for my three ween babies (RIP prince ali, pikachu angel, and capt. jack.) and a piece of swiss representing my cheeseman husband (one of his many pet names, we are celebrating 15 years together this year 🤯)

so yeah, my brother did the cards while i was all console baybeee
