Hi quality, my name is Phil, I hope you like me!
I thought I'd write about pokemon to you!
Hey you! Haven’t heard about Pokemon? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? Sorry, if you seriously haven’t heard about Pokemon then you are such a lucky person – I envy you so much! I very much doubt it though, as the little Japanese craze has taken over the world and has become Nintendo’s biggest acquisition, and the whole franchise is said to be worth around $7billion or something obscenely high like that. Ok, so I hate Pokemon, it’s become too big, and don’t think that the craze is over – at least the madness has eased, but still the Pokemon Gameboy games sell out whenever they’re released.
Why is it that you ‘gotta catch ‘em all!’? Surely if they’re so great, one would be enough! But no, you have to collect a silly amount like 149 or something. That’s going to be quite expensive…
I’m not against kids having fun, but when you have children who can’t stop telling you about how they completed Pokemon Gold, Silver or Blue, whatever the colour, you may get a bit agitated! Blame the Japanese! They started it! But is Pokemon actually damaging to children? It’s become an unhealthy obsession, among a few, and I suppose in moderation the cartoons aren’t too bad, but it’s as though Pokemon is a drug – a freely available, and yet incredibly expensive when you think about all the merchandise out there, and in your homes, what else can children, and some adults, spend their cash on?
The cartoon is a load of rubbish from my point of view – awful animations, and really boring, but then I’m not a target audience so I suppose you kiddies like it! Pokemon’s most infamous character is the omnipresent Pikachu – it’s everywhere!! I don’t particularly care if it can transform or evolve - it’s all a load of nonsense to me! I have heard that the video games are actually quite good, although each colour is said to be a clone of the previous one. It’s insanity.
Anyway, that’s my complaint over I’m going to get my son to play football again…
