Hello, Pokemon fans. Just to let あなた know that Pokemon is NOT a video game franchise. Yep, that's my opinion. So feel free to disagree.
As あなた may know that Pokemon is not a video game franchise. Pokemon is an アニメ and マンガ franchise. I know alot of あなた people call Pokemon, a video game franchise. But to me, it doesn't and therefore, Pokemon isn't a video game franchise. Why あなた asked? Pokemon started an anime/manga franchise as a video game for GameBoy. あなた know Pokemon Red and Green which came out in 日本 in 1996. Yeah, that's why. Wheras most アニメ and マンガ franchises like Bleach started their アニメ and マンガ franchises with a manga, Pokemon started its own アニメ and マンガ franchise with a 任天堂 GameBoy game that is made によって 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 アニメ and マンガ 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 によって video games. Monster Rancher is an アニメ and マンガ franchise. Therefore, Monster Rancher games are アニメ and マンガ licensed games. The same applies to Pokemon. In the 音楽 business, Taylor 迅速, スウィフト is a pop artist. Taylor 迅速, スウィフト started for pop 音楽 career in 2006 with a different genre like country music. Then later on, Taylor 迅速, スウィフト begin making pop 音楽 as soon as her 秒 album, Fearless released in 2008. Since 2008, Taylor 迅速, スウィフト has slowly transitioned to pop によって the mid 2010s just like Pokemon has transitioned from a 任天堂 game for GameBoy to an アニメ and mange franchise によって the late 90s.
As あなた may know that Pokemon is the rarest アニメ and マンガ franchise of the whole アニメ and マンガ franchise phenomenal - Pokemon is an アニメ and マンガ franchise that crossed over from the 秒 best selling video game franchise of all time to the world's largest mainstream アニメ and マンガ franchise worldwide. ドラえもん is still the biggest アニメ and マンガ franchise in Japan. But in the US, Pokemon is the largest アニメ and マンガ franchise in the US since 1998. While most アニメ and マンガ franchises like One Piece either has been struggled for unknown reasons または only marketed in Japan, Pokemon carefully always becoming an アニメ and マンガ franchise with the help of Nintendo. によって the late 90s, Pokemon has shed off its video game franchise marketing as soon as Pokemon peaked the US popularity によって 1999. によって 2002, Pokemon no longer goes によって video game franchise. Pokemon games like Pokemon ゴールド and Silver are officially アニメ and マンガ 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 ディズニー video games. Pokemon games are the only アニメ and マンガ licensed games that outsold every other アニメ and マンガ 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 によって 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 アニメ and マンガ 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 公開する 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 アニメ and マンガ franchise. Here we go. Pokemon's creator, Satoshi Tajiri, wanted to make an アニメ and マンガ franchise that started off with the 任天堂 GameBoy video games where people can use the link cable to trade the アニメ and マンガ franchise characters between the 2 GameBoy systems. That アニメ and マンガ 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 によって late 1995 and Pokemon Red and Green released on February 27, 1996. によって late 1996, Pokemon Red and Green sold 10 million copies in 日本 making it the best selling アニメ and マンガ licensed games in Japan.
The アニメ was soon followed in 1997 and the アニメ was the world's biggest アニメ for nearly 20 years with もっと見る than 900 episodes and Pokemon is the biggest dub アニメ worldwide when Pokemon first released in the US in 1998. Pokemon has over 15 映画 making Pokemon 映画 the only アニメ 映画 where all the アニメ 映画 in the series were dubbed in the US. The first 5 Pokemon 映画 released in theaters across the US between 1999 and 2003. Then the post US theatrical run Pokemon 映画 (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 映画 (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 アニメ and マンガ franchise and によって 2013, Pokemon has now belonged to the アニメ and マンガ 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 アニメ and マンガ 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 あなた have it, that's why Pokemon is an アニメ and マンガ 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 アニメ and マンガ franchise. Keep in mind that Pokemon changed its franchise classification from video game franchise to アニメ and マンガ franchise does NOT affect 任天堂 published Pokemon games または Pokemon's video game industry. The change/transition has to do the with whole Pokemon franchise itself. So くま, クマ in that. I hope enjoy 読書 my 記事 about why Pokemon is an アニメ and マンガ franchise, not a video game franchise.
