it's a strategy game. level up, max stats, beat everyone, then once you beat everyone, you catch everything (especially trade. the fun social part of pokemon) and raise the levels of every pokemon you can get. it's fun as long as you don't cheat... otherwise it takes away from the fun of doing the strategy by your self.

The turn out is amazing lol the Pokemon Games are meant for children about 13 and younger lol the demographic for the game is a lot lower than its turning out to be, but i guess many kids aren't on this site.... making this poll not resonable acctually.Oh, but I love to just level up my pokemon and i love breeding for moves and natures, i'm not sure why i love it but i do.

Pokemon games have always been good coz of hte fact that its a simple theory 4 the gameplay. You catch monsters you battle em and you kill other peoples. The only real reason that they suck is that you have to now have about siz different versions to be able to get every single one. They should make one where you could get every pokemon in the one game.

I don't know exactly, but because of the levelling-up! And because it's like Pokemon are really in your world! My siblings can hear me emote joy or sorrow when I play Pokemon. I even sometimes speak to them from the GB like thay can hear me; encouraging, cheering, trusting, and the likes. :(

even though i'm not even that big of a pokemon fan, i will admit ive played some of the GBA games. dont get me wrong, i'm not against pokemon, but i just never thought i liked it enough to actually buy the game. but now that ive recently figured out how to do emulation, ill probably get a few pokemon roms to play in my spare time

even though they all have the sames things (a forest full of bug pokemon, 8 gym leaders, elite 4, three starters (grass, fire, water), it gives a almost nostalgic fealing to it. also there aren't any other games like it. Its not like quake, or need for speed ( with many little clones). this gives it a truly unique play.

After a while, u may want to play a pokemon game, and then, for some strange reason, they become addictive.

yes i agree.each pokemon does not have all pokemon.it is better if we have a pokemon game with all the pokemon inside.meaning we can capture and trained the pokemon.pokemon brightened my day!anyway,i think why pokemon games are so good is because it help us trained our mind mentally.it teach us how to make a correct choice and show us the consequences of making a wrong choice.

I honestly have no idea why it's so good, it just IS. Who would have thought that annoying little creatures that don't stop repeating their names could become so big?? :)
