Hello, Pokemon fans. Just to let 你 know that Pokemon is NOT a video game franchise. Yep, that's my opinion. So feel free to disagree.

As 你 may know that Pokemon is not a video game franchise. Pokemon is an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise. I know alot of 你 people call Pokemon, a video game franchise. But to me, it doesn't and therefore, Pokemon isn't a video game franchise. Why 你 asked? Pokemon started an anime/manga franchise as a video game for GameBoy. 你 know Pokemon Red and Green which came out in 日本 in 1996. Yeah, that's why. Wheras most 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchises like Bleach started their 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchises with a manga, Pokemon started its own 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise with a 任天堂 GameBoy game that is made 由 Nintendo. 任天堂 is the same company who brought us 任天堂 systems like GameBoy Advance and Wii U as well as 任天堂 franchises like Mario and Kirby.

Pokemon isn't the only 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise that started off with the games, Monster Rancher started off with the games. Like Pokemon, Monster Rancher is not a video game franchise despit Monster Rancher goes 由 video games. Monster Rancher is an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise. Therefore, Monster Rancher games are 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 licensed games. The same applies to Pokemon. In the 音乐 business, Taylor 迅速, 斯威夫特 is a pop artist. Taylor 迅速, 斯威夫特 started for pop 音乐 career in 2006 with a different genre like country music. Then later on, Taylor 迅速, 斯威夫特 begin making pop 音乐 as soon as her 秒 album, Fearless released in 2008. Since 2008, Taylor 迅速, 斯威夫特 has slowly transitioned to pop 由 the mid 2010s just like Pokemon has transitioned from a 任天堂 game for GameBoy to an 日本动漫 and mange franchise 由 the late 90s.

As 你 may know that Pokemon is the rarest 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise of the whole 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise phenomenal - Pokemon is an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise that crossed over from the 秒 best selling video game franchise of all time to the world's largest mainstream 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise worldwide. 多啦A梦 is still the biggest 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise in Japan. But in the US, Pokemon is the largest 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise in the US since 1998. While most 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchises like One Piece either has been struggled for unknown reasons 或者 only marketed in Japan, Pokemon carefully always becoming an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise with the help of Nintendo. 由 the late 90s, Pokemon has shed off its video game franchise marketing as soon as Pokemon peaked the US popularity 由 1999. 由 2002, Pokemon no longer goes 由 video game franchise. Pokemon games like Pokemon 金牌 and Silver are officially 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 licensed games in history. Pokemon games are no longer video game franchise games.

Pokemon games are the only licensed games that started off with the franchise's licensed games themselves before the whole franchise itself was just getting started. Pokemon video games are the only licensed video games that sell all video game franchises expect Mario like Sonic The Hedgehog and The Legend Of Zelda. Only Mario outsell Pokemon licensed games. Pokemon video games are NOT real video games. Pokemon video games are licensed video games. Pokemon games are the only licensed games that outsold every other licensed games like movie based video games (Boo!) and 迪士尼 video games. Pokemon games are the only 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 licensed games that outsold every other 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 licensed games like Digimon games. This makes Pokemon games the best selling licensed games of all time.

Pokemon video games are also the only licensed games that all of the franchise's licensed games are published 由 任天堂 as Pokemon is Nintendo's third party acquisition. Speaking of Nintendo, the reason Pokemon needs 任天堂 is because Pokemon's 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise company, The Pokemon Company, is an independent company. That's why 任天堂 will be the video game company for publishing Pokemon licensed video games thanks to 任天堂 owning Pokemon's trademarks just to play it safe. Without Nintendo, there won't be any video game company that 发布 Pokemon games as third parties like Capcom had no faith on Pokemon games. So Pokemon needs 任天堂 in order to keep Pokemon video games alive in the end. With 任天堂 owning Pokemon trademarks, Pokemon makes a special guest in Super Smash Bros.

OK then, let's talk about why Pokemon is a different 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise. Here we go. Pokemon's creator, Satoshi Tajiri, wanted to make an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise that started off with the 任天堂 GameBoy video games where people can use the link cable to trade the 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise characters between the 2 GameBoy systems. That 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise is Pokemon.

So in 1990, Satoshi Tajiri will be making Pokemon for GameBoy. As GameFreak develops Pokemon in 1990 as Capsule Monsters, Pokemon development took 5 and a half years to make before Pokemon Red and Green was finished 由 late 1995 and Pokemon Red and Green released on February 27, 1996. 由 late 1996, Pokemon Red and Green sold 10 million copies in 日本 making it the best selling 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 licensed games in Japan.

The 日本动漫 was soon followed in 1997 and the 日本动漫 was the world's biggest 日本动漫 for nearly 20 years with 更多 than 900 episodes and Pokemon is the biggest dub 日本动漫 worldwide when Pokemon first released in the US in 1998. Pokemon has over 15 电影院 making Pokemon 电影院 the only 日本动漫 电影院 where all the 日本动漫 电影院 in the series were dubbed in the US. The first 5 Pokemon 电影院 released in theaters across the US between 1999 and 2003. Then the post US theatrical run Pokemon 电影院 (Jirachi Wishmaker-Hoopa and the Clash of Ages) were aired on TV (Jirachi Wishmaker and Lucario and the Mystery Of Mew were released straight to DVD instead). These Pokemon 电影院 (Destiny Deoxys-Hoopa and the Clash of Ages) not named Lucario and the Mystery of Mew were aired on Cartoon Network (Destiny Deoxys aired on Kids WB in January 2005 instead).

Then after 5 Pokemon generations between 1996 (1998 in the US) and 2012, Pokemon has finally become the world's largest 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise and 由 2013, Pokemon has now belonged to the 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise realm where it belongs when Pokemon X and Y released for 任天堂 3DS on October 12 worldwide. Pokemon video games like Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire are officially licensed video games as Pokemon is no longer a video game franchise. Pokemon is now an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise forever as Pokemon games are Pokemon licensed games. Pokemon games are not video game franchise games anymore. Pokemon games are Pokemon licensed products forever.

There 你 have it, that's why Pokemon is an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise. Simple as that. I know alot of people call Pokemon a video game franchise. In my opinion, it's not. I hope Pokemon will be marketed as an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise. Keep in mind that Pokemon changed its franchise classification from video game franchise to 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise does NOT affect 任天堂 published Pokemon games 或者 Pokemon's video game industry. The change/transition has to do the with whole Pokemon franchise itself. So 熊 in that. I hope enjoy 阅读 my 文章 about why Pokemon is an 日本动漫 and 日本漫画 franchise, not a video game franchise.
