    Would the younger tag be appropriate here, given that this is the pre-remodel Ashigara and she looks.... tinier? Or is it more chibi?

    I think she is in the nostalgia train.

    Watching these kind of pics makes me wonder really how common Gameboy and Link Cables were back in the day. I take it after Atari 2600 the NES was pretty common among children, but a expensive portable system that required even expensive batteries with a game that gets less popular every new release according to sale figures could be hardly considered common. Let alone carrying a cable.

    I don't know, to me it feels like we were all recalling how our parents had a Ferrari or Lamborghini when we were on elementary school.

    Ah, the good old days. Siccing that Lv50 Pikachu against my friend's Lv55 Gyrados and doing a 1HKO with Thunder was fun.

    Granted, that was in 2001.

    Gameboys were much cheaper than the home consoles, and due to selling cheaper, more "casual"-centric games, VASTLY more popular before smartphones really caught on. The DS in particular sold an order of magnitude more units than the home consoles of that generation.

    I knew other kids where every child in the family had their own Gameboy of every generation, and their parents sure weren't driving Ferraris. And AA batteries back then were things everyone bought in packs of 40 at a time... plus there was the car cigarette lighter adapter that was absolutely mandatory for car trips.

    Oh, and you might want to look at that data you linked to a second time: Outside of the first gen being about 33% more popular, and remakes being about half as popular as the new releases, they were at a fairly stead 25 million or so sales per generation until X and Y started to really suffer in the smartphone-dominated generation.

    Except that she was in remodelled form in the previous page. So this is a flashback or they can shift up to Kai2 at will.

    Should have used a GBA instead of a GBC. Missed a great opportunity to have Ashigara have a full team of six Mightyena and nothing else.

    Those might not even be Colors. In 1995, Nintendo started making Game Boys with other case colors besides white.

    "Expensive Batteries?" What kind of magical land do people come from to say AA Batteries are expensive? Even back when I was a kid people would by a 80 pack of AA or AAA batterries for 10$.

    Looking at the back, however, it looks like a Gameboy Color. The original Gamebrick had rounded edges that surrounded the game cartridge, while the Color had a rectangular protrusion that didn't cover the sides of the top of the cartridge. (Granted, these MIGHT be Gameboy Pockets, which had a similar back. You'd need to see whether it's rounded on the battery case to be sure.)
