The trading card game was one of my most favourite Pokemon GBC games... if a little shorter than the bigger games... but it is so excellent that after mentioning it I just went to find it and played it again :)

Todd the photographer was a character from the Pokemon TV series shortly after spawned a game entitled Pokemon snap.
Pokemon toys
Pokemon movies = ghey
Pokemon TV show
Pokemon merchandise

Pokemon games = good.

I didn't like the Card Game at all, to be honest; whilst games like Pokemon Pinball were great spin-offs, I just couldn't get enthralled by playing a game cards of Pokemon, it's not the same.
As for Pokemon Yellow, it was good but more of a cash-in than anything else; anyone with Pokemon Red or Blue wouldn't have felt the need to buy it.
And I don't see Pokemon Snap is involved with the TV Show, it's a great game but... wha?

Except that image has made Nintendo more money than you care to imagine... so I'm sure you'd let it off.
And besides the Cards spawned a VERY VERY VERY good Trading Card game spin off GBC title, the cartoon spawned Pokemon Yellow a very nice enhancement to red and blue as well as the clever Pokemon Snap.
So was the franchise all that bad?
I don't hate it, I hate the fact that a superb series of games are ridiculed thanks to the image it's created. You'll be hard-pressed to find any handheld game better.
Pokémon rules.
The Sims is a bad game and Pokemon is a good game...
That simple.
