Why bother??? The fad is over. I know of no one who still likes pokemon except tiny little kids of about 5 years old but they cant play a games console! So why are they still bothering to still make pokemon stuff???
I see no point! What do you think? Pokemon is over its babyish. The fad died years ago. So why still continue???
I'm actively considering buying a GBA just so I can play it.
And I'm a tight fisted git who hates spending money and gets horrible, horrible cramp from any games controller smaller than a proper size Xbox one.
It did get out of hand with all those merchandise of pokemon toy and cards, and when Digimon came around it started to fade to almost nothing even with Gold and Silver for GBC out in the shops, but since Digimon thought they had succeeded they also started to increase their merchandising and they too started to fade out because of advertisment-overkill.
So now that pokemon never got totally destroyed they have yet again claimed the monster fad throne with the massive release of the newest and est versions of the game Ruby and Saphire onto the best Handheld console the world has ever seen, the GBA.

The cards are a rip - off, they've re-released them in a new format.(Yay!) However, the craze is not over, as Azul said it is still big in Japan, and in Britain.

Again, money comes into this, and Pokemon appeals to people from about 5 - 10, which is quite big.

I think Pokemon is one of the best franchises ever made, it has been out for ages, and Nintendo are still rolling in.
