Episode 70
A Sneak Pikachu: The LOST Hasbro Pokémon Fashion Show
What do you get when you mix Pikachu, 90's pop star Aaron Carter and a bunch of Hasbro toys? A... fashion show? At least that's exactly what happened in 2000 at the New York toy fair expo! The event in its entirety was broadcast over the internet for a short time, and while sources are limited today, it provided an in-depth view into the relationship between Pokémon and the toy market. In addition to the mysteries of the webcast itself, Cody finds one of the toys showcased at the event very curious as it has seemingly disappeared from vintage collections everywhere... Put on your dancing shoes and prepare to strut your stuff as we walk the runway to the 2000 Hasbro Pokémon Fashion Show.
The journey starts today! Welcome to Every Pokémon Ever!
