Is pokemon still cool? + What's your favourite Pokemon?

When i was a strapping young child, Pokemon cards were an obsession, then bey blades (anyone still remember those?). Now it's yu-gi-oh (as my little brother informs me). However i can say my favorite Pokemon was Alakazam because it was the only card i ever had. Even at that tender young age i had better things to spend my money on.

Psh. Nostalgia blinds you. Empoleon is a giant steel penguin - how is that not awesome?

Oh no you di'nt!

151 was a manageable number. You could get the jist, at least, of all the Pokemon. Now we've got, what, over 350 or something stupid? More isn't always better, Funk! How am I supposed to know the Bedoof (sp?) is the handicapped brother of Ratatta? Or that a Shinx is the electric Pokemon that everyone (Or just me, maybe) wants to punch in the face for being so useless?

I've got to agree there, I used to love pokemon when I was younger and the games were awesome. But seriously, 151 of them was a good amount, not too many or too few, it's just confusing now. As tempting as the giant steel penguin is, it's just too many to handle. I was happy with Charizard, Blastoise and Jigglypuff

i actually checked. there are 493 pokemon if wikipedia is to be believed.

i really dont like pokemon very much, but Bulbasaur kicks some fuckin' ass! He's No 1 for a reason

Pokemon stopped being cool when it expanded beyond the first set of colours (red, yellow, green, blue) and they introduced loads of new pokemon and I lost track =[

[Pimppeter2]

Cool? Obviously not. But the games are still fun


Edit: Ohh and Charmander

 

[Falcon123]

The games are fun, but it's only cool if you've got 150 (or 151) Pokemon to choose from.
None of this other crap.

Gimme Red and Blue and get those other second-class Pokemon out of my face!

Truer words have never been spoken. Pokemon Yellow forever!

 

[Shadowfaze]

Greetings from the future.

I think it's cool now. Though the names are weird, Heart and Soul?...wait, I just get it now.

Cubone is the best pokemon! They're awesome.
