Pokémon Nostalgia: Dutch Pokemon CDs

Front of the Pokémon Third Movie Music CD in Dutch.

All songs have been translated to Dutch, which is interesting, because the original Pokémon intros (Indigo League and Orange League) were left in English in the Netherlands. While pretty much every other country had the Pokémon intro translated into their native language: Portugal, Finland, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, etc. With Italy being even completely different! In the Netherlands, the intro didn’t get translated until the Johto League.

Having said this, eventually a Dutch version of the original intro and the Orange League intro were created, but we’re talking about 15 years later.

The case and leaflet separated.

When you unfold the leaflet, it turns into this poster on the other side. :)

This is the poster of the Pokémon: 2.B.A. Master leaflet.

Although the entire CD is in English, I did buy it in the Netherlands after all, so I’m including this in the post. :P

I hope you like today’s Pokemon nostalgia post! If you’re interested in purchasing used cds, you could consider browsing ATNL Music. At the time of writing, Pokémon World is available for just €3.95 excluding shipping. And it’s in very good condition!
