[odessie]

Utterly brilliant. <3

[violace]

Ahahahha this really captures what a ridiculous and fun phenomenon this game was last summer. Amazing, vidder!

[echan]

D'AWWWWW this is brilliant!

[kouredios]

I love this SO MUCH.

[sanguinity]

Aw, that was a lot of fun!

[cyanne]

This is awesome! You had me at "I didn't walk 5 kilometers to get a fucking pidgey!" and then the vid just blew me away. Fabulous work and very, very creative.

[epershand]

This makes me so happy!

[kass]

This is absolutely adorable. My seven year old (who is a huge Pokemon fan, both the cartoons and Pokemon Go) also loved it, and wants to know when he can grow up and make vids just like this. :-)

I want to congratulate you on your song choice, because most well done! The whole vid is super fun and filled with joy! <3

[gorgeousnerd]

So perfect! This captured exactly what I love about the game (and I enjoyed singing 'Rattata' during the chorus parts, ahem).

[eruthros]

This vid is adorable! I really enjoyed it.

[talumin]

That was so great! It's so well edited and it really captures the atmosphere of those first few crazy weeks of Pokemon Go.

[actiaslunaris]

This is awesome! You did a great job with your narrative and it's so much fun to watch.

[oyceter]

I love this! It makes me miss those first weeks when everyone was out hunting Pokemon, and I laughed so hard at things like the screen full of Rattatas and all the Magikarp.

[fiercynn]

I don't even play Pokemon Go and I am DYING. SO ADORABLE.

[croissantkatie]

Oh gosh that was fab!

[laurashapiro]

Okay, that was totally delightful.

[yarnofariadne]

You are a wonderful human being.

[morbane]

This put a huge smile on my face - it pokes a little fun but it's so affectionate towards the subject matter.

[jetpack_monkey]

Heeeeeeeeeeeee.

[danegen]

Delightful! Love the song choice.

[bessyboo]

I laughed. I cried. This was perfect. Goddammit.

[thingswithwings]

This was SO CUTE and such a perfect song choice and it made me laugh out loud and nearly made me cry and I have never Pokemoned in my entire life. What a beautiful ode to fannishness!

[anoel]

Awww this is so cute! The song choice is SO perfect and I love how you used the choruses for showing the pokemon in various places. The pokemon go fails were hilarious like the walking into a window one and I love how you bring in all the newspaper articles especially the sweet ones at the end. So fun and well done, glad you made this :D
