I got my tattoo done at Planet Ink by an awesome guy named Wes Holland in Austell, GA. It is my first tattoo and it’s a Pikachu. I customized it and made it my own. Some people might think my tattoo is random because it’s a Pokemon but, I can truly say I’m one of the “original” fans of Pokemon. I got this tattoo to symbolize the fun times I had as a kid. Me, my brother and my grandma would stand outside Toy’s R Us when each card generation came out just to buy the packs. I played in the “Pokemon leagues” held at bookstores and collected original Pokemon cards. I saw Pokemon the first movie in theaters just to get the ancient Mew card and would wake up every Saturday morning to watch new episodes of the TV show on Kids WB. I still, to this day play the original red, yellow, blue and nintendo64 games. It’s something that reminds me of my childhood and I’m happy that I grew up with Pokemon. The show means alot to me and each time I look at this tattoo it reminds me of all the fun times I had growing up with it. It may be simple but I will always love this tattoo, i’ll never be too old for Pikachu <3
