The special features that are actually on this set are the complete PokéRap and a “Who’s that Pokémon? Gallery.

I was hoping for some concept art, interviews with creators or voice-actors, but we get none of that. The special features are pretty lame in this set. I really don’t know what else could top that. Obviously the best thing that you get from this entire set is all 52 episodes remastered to look as beautiful as they possibly can in 1080P. I got the Sweet Potato Pikachu recipe and am somewhat terrified of trying it out. You also get a special Manga edition Pokémon book to read and a recipe card for a Pokémon related dish. I didn’t mind that though it added to the nostalgia of watching all these episodes on a small tubed television in my dorm room. The episodes are still in the old box form, 4×3 aspect ratio, so they won’t fill up your entire screen unless you adjust your actual television for it. I didn’t get a chance to watch every episode for this review, but I went through a big chunk of them and the colors popped on screen. There are eight to nine episodes on each disc, and man, did they do a great job with the HD upgrade. In this set alone, you get the first season’s 52 episodes on six glorious Blu-ray discs. I forgot how huge children’s program seasons were. Viz Media locked up college nostalgia in a nice little package for me, and I’m sure lots of memories for others are tucked away in this set.
#POKEMON INDIGO LEAGUE SERIES#
Watching the show got me hooked to the series sadly at the time, I didn’t have the funds for the sweet toys or the GameBoy Color games, but man I loved that show. I remember fielding hundreds of questions about Pokémon cards, games and the little action figures, so much that I decided to watch the television show after class. Yes, I’m a little older than the normal writer on this site and I was in college when Pokémon hit the States I also worked at Kay-Bee Toys at that time. Little did I know that a little Blu-ray set would unleash upon me tons of great college memories. Nostalgia is a huge thing right now I’m caught up in it, and many of my friends are as well.
