Pokemon |
| Pokemon is a multi-billion dollar media franchise created by Satoshi Tajiri in 1996. The original Game Boy video games have since been merchandised into anime, manga, trading cards, toys, books and other media. The name, Pokemon, is a portmanteau of its Japanese name, "Pocket Monsters". The game?s catchphrase, in the English language versions of the franchise, used to be "Gotta catch em all!".The concept of the Pokemon saga stems from the hobby of insect collecting, a popular pastime in Japan, and one which Pokemon's creator Satoshi Tajiri had enjoyed as a child. |
