(why is it so hard to find a version of that song that isn't accompanied by Sexy Renamons)

That song sounds familiar...

*some youtube searching later*

Please tell me they didn't use that song in all the seasons >_>

Being immune to nostalgic bias, I can say that song is BAD

Haha like, even a more general reference to Pokemon would have been more dignified than quoting directly from the stupid song at the end.

Digimon really was a poor man's network Pokemon option. I too suffered through a childhood devoid of Cartoon Network and was forced to watch Digimon. HOWEVER, in retrospect I would say for the first few seasons or whatever it actually is a much superior "pocket monsters" show to Pokemon. For one thing, the monsters had personalities. Also, it was actually pretty damn violent at times. Shit often got real, monsters often died. So actually it's a million times better than Pokemon.

For being a totally more weird and terrible idea that was a rip off of so many genres including but not limited to Pokemon, Power Rangers, Tron and, I dunno, Little Orphan Annie, Digimon was actually really good.

This thread seems to have split from its original purpose. If we're looking into the wisdom of Pok�mon, it can't go without saying that shorts are, indeed, comfy and easy to wear. However, if we want to pull campaign slogans from any old anime, these particular verses could be just what this country needs to rally together and solve the problems facing us in the twenty-first century:

We are living, living in the nineties! nineties! nineties!
We still fight, fighting in the nineties! nineties! nineties!

And Digimon was a neat show.

I just remember a scene from Digimon where one of the Kids slugged the shit out of the Kid with the 'Bad Guy' Digimon instead of wasting time with a Digimon super fight.

It was one of the later seasons, I can't remember which, but it certainly resonated with me as making more sense.
