Posted February 11, 2007 I remember the good old day of primary school crazes. You never seem to get them in Secondary school. So what are your favourite crazes? The biggest at my school were Yo Yos and the classic Pokemon. Ahh, pokemon, absolute class. I remember trading cards with my mates, playing the games and I remember when someone bought a pokedex in, it was amazing. At the Christmas Bazaar, they had this Pokemon tournament (for the games) and my brother won! He was against another guy with all level 100s but he used the rare candy cheats and used all legendaries. My brother grinded and grinded and used normal pokemon (with the exception of Mewtwo). Those were the days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 11, 2007 Pokemon will, to this day, always be the best craze ever. There was: Pokemon (got banned eventually) Beyblades (i wasnt part of that) Might've got banned.. not sure. Yu-gi-oh (or that) Yo-yos... Got banned, even though the school were selling them after an assembly with some yo-yoers. These plastic things that you played funny games with, the school gave everyone a booklet, and a pack of them (guessing the company were after advertising), and then frikkin' banned them! My school was retarded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 11, 2007 Crazes were hilarious, any craze was guarenteed to get banned. Apparently you weren't allowed to run in the primary school in the village next door to mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 11, 2007 I almost bought myself some Heelies, buuut then i didn't.. Ah, so that's what they're called. I remember our school banned pokemon cards when someone flushed a whole load of someone elses down the toilet. I can't remember them ever buying yoyos... Also, I played magic with my friends, so when pokemon cards were banned, we wrote up a list of why magic shouldn't be banned as well, and presented it to the headmaster. It worked!

Posted February 11, 2007 Pokemon was the only craze that got me, and when it did, it got me by the balls. The game, the cards the TV show... I was all over that crap. Still am, if I'm honest with myself. Anyone remember Tamigotchis though? My god those pissed me off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 11, 2007 Yo yos Pokemon cards Beyblades Scented gel pens, oddly (it was a weird one, everyone used to buy them and trade for exotic smelling ones or ones they didn't have) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got obsessed with them as well, or the cheap knockoff ones by Tiger electronics anyway. They got really annoying, becuase you had to look after all the time or they died. I remember my sister's one lived for a record 24 days, then my friend killed it and she went mental. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had an awesome Tamigotchi, everyone elses died if they left it at home during school (guess what, they were banned) but mine would carry on living. Crazes I remember: Tamigotchis Furbys Yo-yos Pokemon Pogs And other crazes which weren't as big (probably because I didn't participate) Beyblades Yu-gi-oh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 11, 2007 Hmmm, oe thing I remember from the early years of elementary school were us swapping stickers. They were from Panini and the sticker albums I remember the best are the ones for Aladdin and The Lion King. Those were great! Also the tamagotchis and what we call flippos, which I guess is the same as pogs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
