The Nostalgia Vault Opens: Early-2000s Pokémon Gaming

Before the cards were graded, they were afternoons. The Nostalgia Vault is Holo Lane's love letter to the era when Pokémon lived on cartridges and the family computer.

Inside the vault: the Game Boy Advance golden age (Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and the sacred link cable), the weird wonderful Nintendo 64 experiments (Hey You, Pikachu! and Stadium 2), the GameCube's dark horse classics (Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness), and the Flash era — fan games, sprite comics, and forums with signatures bigger than the posts.

Complete with CRT scanlines, pixel styling, and a cheat code hidden at the bottom. Enter the vault →
