  What is this so called Pokemon?


It´s a fun, great video game from Nintendo. You collect and train small
monsters (Pocket Monsters). When they are strong enough, you can battle
other trainers, and earn badges. If that´s not enough, there are 150 kinds
of pokémon. Besides training, you also have a mission to collect every
Pokémon in the world, so that a professor gets happy. BUT...
Each game does not have 150 monsters... So, you´ll have to trade with a
friend. There are two versions that have some monsters the other dosen´t
have, and if your friend has a different version than you, you can trade
monsters.

I dunno, I put Pokemon in almost the same boat as Sanrio/Hello Kitty,
which is still around.  Plus Nintendo is milking the snot out of
Pokemon.  In Japan there is already released two Pokemon games for the
N64 called Pokemon Stadium (1 & 2) which the latter of the two will be
coming out here in a few months.  Plus in a couple weeks they plan to
release Pokemon Silver/Gold, which is the sequel to the original
Red/Blue versions.  Silver/Gold also has even MORE Pokemon for kids to
drool over.  I think it'll be around with us for a long time, in fact,
Pikachu seems to be replacing Mario as Nintendos mascot and given the
life of Mario, that means we could be seeing Pikachu well into the
2010's.
