Whether you’ve played the video games or mobile games, collected the cards, watched the anime, or read the manga/graphic novels, Pokémon (Pocket Monsters) has remained number one in many hearts since its original release, February 1996 in Japan. Later released in the United States in 1997, with an option of two Gameboy Cartridges (Red and Blue), Pokémon is currently on its 9th video game installment, Scarlet and Violet as of 2022. The release of the original games were followed by an anime, manga, both collectible and playable card game, and a mobile game all of which are still popular. Since its debut, Pokémon has maintained the number one spot on the list of the highest grossing media franchises in the world. What makes Pokémon so special is that it has such a wide audience, and it can be enjoyed by anyone at any age. Its appeal mainly comes from the ability to catch, raise, and battle together as a self-chosen team containing 6 of the 1025 (and counting) Pokémon against each other. Each Pokémon has an affinity to a specific energy type that correlates with the battle moves it uses and its personality overall. Whether you choose round and sleepy normal-type Snorlax, sleek and mysterious dark-type Umbreon, or even the face of the franchise, reliable and resilient electric-type Pikachu, you are bound to find that Pokémon that resonates with you.
