About: In this video I talk about the banned or censored Pokémon cards. These cards had their artwork altered to be acceptable in Western culture. A lot of these are pretty funny and have interesting backstories.
The Misty’s Tears card was infamous in the schoolyard. “Have you heard about the Naked Misty card?! It was banned but my brother’s friend’s uncle has one!”
I actually did have one as a kid, got it in a trade and hadn't really payed much attention to it until my dad saw it lol
Amazing work... I felt like I was at Pokemon School taking a History 201 class! I also kinda want all these cards now, haha.
Thanks! Yea learning about cards tends to empty the ol’ wallet
Hands down best pokemon channel out there!
Nonono! But thank you 😬
Im pretty sure the Yokai Jinx is based on just happens to have what we would consider Black Face.
Mr Popo IS based on a Hindu God.
I don’t think either of their designs are intended to be offensive in any way. They’re just frowned upon in western culture unfortunately
Wow what a video. I think these will be the first japanese cards I purchase
And you’re on a list……… great stuff
Thanks for another nice video!
Thank you for watching, I appreciate it
Another amazing video. I had no idea about that Magmortar card.
Thanks!
Really interesting video :) thanks
2:37 a little bit unrelated but can someone tell me what the "growths"/flaps on Jynx's hips are supposed to be...I'm wondering to this day why
Jynx has those as it feels like her robe was washed badly and now it has this stiff edges around her hips
I collected all of the Japanese versions of the cards mentioned in 1999 BEFORE I wuz aware of any controversy
"Gold and silver virgins". Lol
Great topic though once again!
I said versions!!! lol I wanted to re-record that line but the audio didn’t quite sound the same
What’s the problem with “Pound”?
Pound is sometimes a euphemism for sex
Can we discuss how Driftloon does this… ☠️ 😂
Drifloon is said to target children by tugging on their hands or heads to try to drag them away. There is also a rumor that children who mistake Drifloon for a balloon and hold onto it could go missing
Yeah real 1996 Gengar vibes there
I have the Japanese moo moo milk card. I laugh whenever I look at it.
Same! 😂
As someone who speaks Japanese and is often around Japanese media, I'm now actually used to seeing the Manji symbol. Even now on Google maps it's still used and I've become slightly desensitised to it. But at the same time, it's hard to still look at it as a swastika.
Interesting, especially the one about Jinx. I heard of it before, but never the full story. Never did I think of it as a racist stereotype. Not when I first encountered this Pokemon all the years back when I was like 7 , nor did I think of it while I was growing up, until I heard of the controversy a couple of years back. This begs the question if it really was as bad by itself or if it was made a problem by people complaining about it... No hate though, just a thought.
In the 90s / early 2000s they were also closer to that particular cartoon and blackface in general. Its understandable it would go unnoticed at 7. It is now because of our distance
