'The language of Pokémon is universal': fans are still catching after 30 years

I have two elementary school aged children and I never would have imagined they’d be into the same things as I was at almost the same age, namely the subject of this article. My childhood had nothing in common with my own parents’. My Dad played baseball and collected sports cards and stamps, for example.

I can’t tell if it’s because of the claimed Pokémon time-invariance or because culture has stopped advancing so rapidly since the late 90s.
