^ The understatement of the day

Well that is true. Nintendo keeps getting a ton of money from the franchise, so they'll just keep making them. It will never die, everyone plays it (people who claim it and people who don't).

bro, if you see a 5 year old kid with a ds,you dont even have to guess, you know hes playing a pokemon game

But, the thing is, you cannot fully play Pokemon if you are a child. Most of them just catch whatever they want, battle their friends, etc, which is a ton of fun for a kid, but not for a teenager. However, there's more than meets the eye, so pretty much everyone can play Pokemon.

And if it weren't for that awful anime, Pokemon wouldn't be for children only. But generally that is why Pokemon franchise is so appreciated among both fans and critics. Most franchises don't stay on top after so many games released.

Well, to be honest I actually like the Pokemon anime from the Indigo League all the way to Battle Frontier, which was merely decent compared to the previous seasons. Pokemon started going downhill with Pokemon Advanced. Yes, you guys may ridicule me now.

Actually, I agree with you 100%

I think the killing regions were Hoenn and Unova, Sinnoh actually introduced some nice pokemon

Actually, Hoenn had a lot of good Pokemon too. I mean, the starters are legendary, Metagross, Flygon, Altaria, and Breloom are major parts of non-Uber ladders.

^ That. And Hoenn was my favourite region, because it was really big and explorer-friendly.

Lol, Yeah it was.

I actually heard Black and White are better than Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.

^ They are, but we are talking about the amount of Pokemon now.
