I have played the gameboy game and its honestly quite good but the whole craze thing was ridiculous, how can you justify a forum too it?
Maybe because they wanted to get rid of people who filled the other forums with useless pokemon banter?

This forum has had its day whether you like it or not.

Nothing but pain and misery to little children?

My much younger cousin has enjoyed collecting the cards and enjoys playing the games...

HEAR, HEAR! The pokemon craze has caused nothing but pain for little children who got bullied or conned for cards and parents who have had to fork out ridiculous sums of money.

Fogmaster, Mario and Zelda get more talk time but we don't need seperate forums for them.

Pokemon the series is over - good riddance!
Pokemon the movie is forgotten - about time!
Pokemon the trading card game has been out of fashion for 2 years.

That leaves Pokemon as a series of great Nintendo games.

Like Zelda.
Like Mario.

And when people start talking about the new Pokemon games, it'll be shouted out in FoG and the Nintendo forum first.
I don't think that this forum is needed anymore.

There's enough room in the Nintendo forum for Pokemon news like there is for ANY Nintendo game news from Perfect Dark to F-Zero.

I really do like pokemon but there are not very many decent chat posts in here. My brother bought me pokemon crystal for christmas. i thought it was wiked u pand till it was impossible to get all pokemon with out buying gold or silver! that really annoyed me! i reckon they should make a device that lets you trade pokemon over the internet! then this chat room could be really usefull. people could come in and say what they have to offer and what they need! what a good idea.

People still talk about Pokemon though, no reason why they should get rid of it, just makes more work for the SR team, If/when there are more Pokemon games released they'll waste valuble space in the Nintendo forum, now, you don't want that do you? this is the newbies cave, please let them stay in here.

All the arguments have been:

"I still play Pokémon and new games are coming out soon."

That wasn't my point. Sure we'll be playing Pokémon games for ages, just like we'll be playing our Mario's and Zelda's but there's nothing left to the franchise except for a couple of future games that can be just as easily talked about in FoG or the Nintendo forum.

I don't think we need this forum anymore.

I think they tried that, and it sucked, enough people make jokes on other forums, i doubt they'd want to keep their 'brilliance' to one forum.

Yeah, they should change the old Pokémon forum for a new forum, like a 'Jokes' Forum

Your so wrong, i'v just started playing it again, on my mission to complete Yellow for the second time as my Chansey needs eom good moves, I seem to have wasted the last lot. But the rest of it is far gone, and i'm happy to say it went quietly, 3 films was quite a stretch, but i'm glad they made 8 good games, 6 gameboy and 2 N64, not sure how many others there are, pinball...etc :p

but i'm definatly glad the series is almost over.
