Play Misty for Me
"Pokémon! Gotta catch em all (it's you and me)! I know it's my destiny! Pokémon! Oh, you're my best friend in a world we must defend! Pokémon! Gotta catch 'em all (a heart so trueeee)! Our courage will pull us through! You teach me and I'll teach you! Pokémon! Gotta catch 'em all! Gotta catch 'em all!" - Jason Paige, Pokémon Theme
Have you ever seen somebody dressed identically to an anime character, outside of fan conventions, Halloween parties, or on the streets of Tokyo? 🤖🎃🗻 Because I spotted a 20-something girl at Boston Pizza (a Canadian chain restaurant) this evening who was the spitting image of Misty from the Pokémon anime, circa 1998. No joke. The red, yellow, and white sneakers, the blue denim shorts, the red suspenders over a sleeveless yellow crop top. The girl even had the same reddish hair...the only thing missing was the ponytail. 😮 As far as I know, there aren't any current fan conventions going on in or around the small town I live in. 🤓 Not sure if this girl is a Misty superfan or if the matching outfit is just a coincidence, but it sure was a cool experience either way, ha-ha! 😂
