"Pokemon"

but don't expect to become a better person or get anything more than entertainment from playing them.

well if you wanna put it like that then YES!

What you are saying is it's just as pointless as football. It's just 11 men chasing a stupid ball!

ferret get a life! People have different interests! Mine is Pokémon and other gaming yours is insulting people who have interests.

I bet you think you're perfect! I bet you have some faults!

I've got GCSE's to study for so I'm on 15 hrs not 16 ok!

I'm not on it constantly, I'm on the internet a lot and I watch TV, etc! I use PC's more than GB's and my Granddad calls me a 'Mouse Potato'

Actually I've found out officially that it was 1995 that Pokémon was first heard of in Japan!

That is exactly what happened to me my mum said i was getten addicted so i gave all of my cards away.

on my pc i could create the pokemon cards for about £1 for the 11 so i know all i have to do to make a cool sm of money is just get all the info make the crads and sell them for a couple of hundred but i aint that sad so there you go.

anyway if you look at the media and the little kids peers then you'll see that alll these ppl are just forcong them to buy this rubbish so in a way it's saying "if you hate pokemon then you are uncool and if you don't but the merchandise then you're uncool aswell".
South park did a great pokemon rip off show where they tried to warp the kids minds into these pokemon and ll the kids thougt it was cool and they all bought all the stuff, and then the japs tried to get them to bomb pearl harbour, but that's completely off the point the point is that one of them was slower than the rest and wa considered uncool because he didn't have the latest stuff.
And this is just the message the media deliver to little kids and expect them to have loadsa money

can someone exlain to me why pokemon is so great becasue it's swept the nation and i think it's all a load of rubbish, anyway i think i'm right so just explain to me the concept of pokemon

you must be anti-social uif you spend months on one game the most i spent on one game was a week and i went out most of the time. I think all you pokemon lovers should get out more
