Ah, France—where the word
toxic reaches new heights whenever Pokémon is involved! You wouldn’t believe the chaos. Our homegrown scalpers, the ultimate aisle ninjas, have found their latest hunting ground:
Celio stores. Yes, Celio. The clothing shop. Nothing to do with toys or trading cards, yet here we are.
From the moment the doors open, they swarm in, asking for...
Pokémon cards. Meanwhile, the poor store employees are standing there like, “Um... skinny jeans or a holographic Pikachu, sir?” The whole scene is so absurd, it could be the next Netflix comedy special. And that
Pokémon clothing collection everyone’s raving about? Let’s just say it has about as much charm as a Magikarp cosplaying as Snorlax.
And don’t even get me started on the McDonald’s promos from a few weeks back. That was an even bigger disaster. Lines out the door, people waiting like it’s a Beyoncé concert, just to grab a Happy Meal and a tiny piece of cardboard. Honestly, we’ve hit rock bottom here.
But hey, let’s look on the bright side, my friends:
ridiculousness doesn’t kill! So let’s keep smiling and enjoy what we’ve got... even if it’s just a scratchy Charmander T-shirt.
