This is upsetting.

I never actually bought any Pokemon cards, I just scabbed them off other people. As I recall, I had a Ponyta, a Charmander, a Charmeleon, possibly a Squirtle and a few others. The maximum I ever owned was about eight.

Still, when the yo-yo craze kicked in I was excellent. Until everyone got light-up ones, and mine broke shortly after. That was a disappointment.

The pokemon thing was a little after my time...although that said, I DID know one of the marketing guys responsible for bringing Pokemon in from the cold in the UK and really hyping it up....Jeremy....hmmm.....~drools~ Yes, Pokemon had at least ONE benefit I can think of.....~snickerfit~

Ahem...ANYWAY...that aside.

I really can't hink what the "crazes" were...I do remember an awful lot of embroidery thread and macrame bracelets being made. In fact, I still make them when I'm a bit stressed out - remarkably calming n the jolly old nerves.

I'm sure the scoobie craze has came twice that I remember. Only this time it was only acceptable for boys to wear them, and fluoresent pink ones at that.
Its probably different for other age groups though.

I said played, not play! As in past tense....
In other words, I used to play them, I don't still play them. Besides, I can't find mine anyway.
Ignorant American...

biggrin I think that the fact that you played with pogs at all is sad. sad ~patpat~ I'm glad you grew out of that. I never played it myself, it looked quite silly even when I was a child.

I LOVE POKEMON.

I used to watch it after school every day. You know, I wanted to download some of the episodes, but the only way you can get them is via torrents, which ******** up my connex. I only ever had a couple of Pokemon cards, though: Vulpix was one.

I saw a mobile made tied together with scoobies yesterday. I think it worked better than ribbons.
My uncle helped my 4yr old cousin make it out of twigs and fake icicles after my aunt suggested they make a mobile. It was a very good mobile but it turned out she was meaning the mobile in the phone sense. XD
