Pokemon's much like your typical anime show - good concept, but it's being overused and overexploited by greedy companies. No further comments.
BTW, that conspiracy theory thing that WCB posted was very convincing indeed. Especially the part about the motto and the cock fighting thing .

it installs and applies the cursor... if you want to replace your old cursors you have to do it your self...
Show me the power child,
I'd like to say,
That I'm down on my knees today,
Gives me the butterflies,
Gives me away,
'Til I'm up on my feet again,
I'm feeling outshined.
"Children are encouraged to train cute little animals to bite and scratch their friends' cute little animals." hahaha its so true! Pokemon was a great concept, and the dude who made it, Shigeru Miyamoto, got the idea by watching people fish
I agree 1st Series was the best, and i have Pokemon Sapphire on my GbaSP
Advance wars is good too
Gah!

lol! i used to play pokemon on my gameboy years ago. this post has bought it all back, quite saddening really that i still remember all the names. i got all the collection on pokemon red, if i recall (ah yes it was called a pokedex wasn't it!). christ it's all flooding back. hurrah pokemon.
I play Pokemon on the Gameboy. Have a copy of just about all of the original games (not the card game or pinball or any of that other stuff). I'll catch the show on TV from time to time and watch it through just because it's interesting to see how it would be like within a game-type world. I think the show is way out of whack, though, because they put up little level one untrained pokemon up against tournament end level pokemon and some how beat them or otherwise have a winning edge.
But I like to play the game because I can put my pokemon against my brother's pokemon and have a good match. I like competitive player versus player stuff.
I've always enjoyed the game but the cartoon (along with just about every other 'anime' show) lost it's appeal to me when I was about 13.
