About the Pokemon Blue template
Pokemon Blue transports visitors to Kanto through pale sky-blue with deep navy—Squirtle's exact hue meets gym badge geometry, instantly recognized by millions who grew up with Game Boy pixels. Perfect for retro gaming platforms, Pokémon fan communities, and nostalgic gaming startups, it's visual shorthand for 'this is legitimate nostalgia.' Every element echoes 8-bit authenticity.

What the demo shows
The live demo on this page launches Starter Blue, a made-up product we wrote to show the template with realistic copy: the headline reads “Saturday mornings, delivered every Sunday” and the subhead says “A weekly newsletter of 90s handheld memories, lost commercials, and link-cable stories from the kids who grew up trading.” Below it you see the signup form, a demo launch countdown and the share-to-climb referral panel exactly as a visitor would. Try the form: in the demo nothing is stored. When you use Pokemon Blue, you replace Starter Blue with your own product name, headline, subhead and logo; the palette and motion come with it and every colour stays editable.
Design details
Pokemon Blue is a light template: a pale sky blue background (#dbeafe), deep blue type (#0c1233) and a blue accent (#1e40af) on the join button, the countdown and the referral highlights. Body text sits at a 15:1 contrast ratio against the background, comfortably past the WCAG AAA threshold. Behind the copy the page animates with bubbles rising to the surface, front and centre; visitors who ask their device for reduced motion get a still frame instead. Structurally it uses the Bold layout, shared with 59 other templates, but the palette, the motion and the demo copy are Pokemon Blue's own.

How it compares
Within Retro / Gaming, Pokemon Blue stands out for its blue accent on a pale sky blue ground. If it is not quite right, Synthwave Sunset flips to a dark deep violet canvas with a vivid pink accent and the odd shooting star (“Neon grid into the horizon”). Zelda Green flips to a dark deep emerald canvas with an emerald accent and fireflies blinking in the dark (“Tunic green, Hylian crest”). Minecraft Dirt flips to a dark near-black vermilion canvas with an emerald accent and stacking geometric blocks (“Pixel grass, sky cube”). All of them share the same signup, referral and analytics features, so switching later only changes the look.
