Originally a popular video game for the Game Boy, Pokemon exploded into anime, manga, other video games, and trading card games. The franchise is internationally popular.
The original video game the franchise is based on is a role playing game in which the player acts as a collector of pokemon, animal-like creatures that can be trained to fight in tournaments. The player wanders around the world, capturing wild pokemon and training them in battle against other wild pokemon. The player then advances through different stages throughout the world by fighting in battles against other trainers' pokemon. An extremely popular anime adaptation of the game began airing in Japan in 1997 (and hit American airwaves in 1998) which featured a boy named Satoshi (or Ash Ketchum in the English version) who starts on his quest to become the ultimate pokemon trainer, along with his first pokemon, a Pikachu. Pikachu has become the franchise's mascot out of nearly 500 different Pokemon species. The franchise has also spawned 10 anime movies to date, as well as 16 manga adaptations. There are 37 Pokemon video games (excluding PC games) to date, and several more planned. Name: |
