Poke'mon/Earthbound Connection

[Baegal]

While it's an interesting coincidence that the boy had extra sensory powers, it's most likely just a coincidence (although a lot of people find similarities between pokemon and Earthbound, but I think they're a tad Farfetch'd).

As for the Abra and Alakazam part, that makes no sense whatsoever. The only things Ninten, Ness, and Lucas had in common were the franchise they were in.
