I'm Jan Genomonic Man, and today's episode will be on something I knew absolutely nothing about before I started researching this episode. And that is about the highest grossing media franchise in the world, Pokemon. Pokemon. And just a note before I get started, and that is that Pokemon celebrates its 30th anniversary on February the 27th, which is known as Pokemon Day. And that is since the original release of Pokemon Red and Green in Japan in 1996. Pokemon is a Japanese media franchise created by Satoshi Tajiri, who was assisted with key character designs and illustrations by Ken Sugimori. It was first launched in 1996 with the original Pokemon Red and Green games for the Nintendo Game Boy. The name is short for Pocket Monsters and its core concept is a world where humans capture, train and battle creatures with unique abilities.
Players take on the role of Pokemon trainers who travel across regions, catch different species and compete to become a Pokemon champion by defeating powerful gym leaders and other trainers.
What are the origins and background of Pokémon?
Each Pokemon belongs to one or two elemental types, of which there are officially 18. These include Normal, Fire, Water, Electric, Grass, Ice, Fighting, Poison, Ground, Flying, Psychic, Bug, Rock, Ghost, Dragon, Dark, Steel and Fairy. Beyond video games, Pokemon has grown to be the highest grossing media franchise in the world. It includes a long-running animated TV series, trading card games, movies, toys, books and mobile apps like Pokemon Go. The Pokemon fan community is huge and they have also joined in the fun and created Fakemon, which are fan-designed Pokemon. So today's mnemonic will be on the top five most popular Pokemon. So with that being said, we will begin with a summary from Wikipedia.
Pokemon is a Japanese media franchise consisting of video games, animated series and films, a trading card game and other related media. The franchise takes place in a shared universe in which humans coexist with creatures known as Pokemon, a large variety of species endowed with special powers. The franchise's primary target audience is children aged 5 to 12, but it is known to attract people of all ages. Pokemon is estimated to be the world's highest grossing media franchise and is one of the best-selling video game franchises. The franchise originated as a pair of role-playing games developed by Game Freak from an original concept by its founder, Satoshi Tajiri. Released on the Game Boy on the 27th of February 1996, the games became sleeper hits and were followed by manga series, a trading card game, and anime series and films.
From 1998 to 2000, Pokemon was exported to the rest of the world, creating an unprecedented global phenomenon, dubbed Pokemania. By 2002, the craze had ended, after which Pokemon became a fixture in popular culture, with new products releasing to this day.
How did Pokémon become a global phenomenon?
In the summer of 2016, the franchise spawned a second craze with the release of Pokemon Go, an augmented reality game developed by Niantic. Unlike most IPs, which are owned by one company, Pokemon is jointly owned by three, Nintendo, Game Freak and Creatures. Game Freak develops the core series RPGs, which are published by Nintendo exclusively for their console, while Creatures manages the trading card game and other related merchandise, occasionally developing spin-off titles. The three companies established the Pokemon Company in 1998 to manage the Pokemon property within Asia. The Pokemon anime series and films are co-owned by Shogakukan. Since 2009, the Pokemon Company International, a subsidiary of TPC, has managed the franchise in all regions outside Asia.
Now on to today's mnemonic. Mnemonic. And the mnemonic for Pokemon top five most popular is become Pikachu or Eevee. Now, all those words are spelt normally. And for become, we take all of the consonants and all the vowels are assisting.
