Why I like it?... Hmm...
Well, I love RPGs, they're the only games I'm half-decent at. And I like animals, and pokemon are basically imaginative versions of animals, mythical creatures etc.
I also find pokemon more fun than any other game,I play everyday, and have stayed up 17 hours in one day playing the games. The fun never ends, especially when a new generation is released, I love to find out about all of the new-gen pokemon, their stats, moves, types, etc.
I also love the NetBattling, since you can just skip to the fun of pokemon. (Though there's no animations for attacks, pokemon cries or battle music, which can get dull.)
Long live this awesome and fun game. (I hope.)

I like it because of the adventure there is. I like to be the trainer. Also I like all the different versions of Pokemon there is like the card game and the video game and the t.V. series is always interesting. It is just an overall fun thing. I LOVE POKEMON!!

Overall...because it's fun. Simple as that. The anime sucks though. Hopefully the Pokemon Chronicals will be better.

I like pokemon because you can train any monster you like, six of them, and train them up to the max, making ultimate weapons of destruction, beating games, friends, family and people who you just want to slap over the head.

I like it because I grew up around the Pokemon craze and got hooked ever since. I only have Blue, Yellow and Silver, and don't intend to buy anymore as I guess I'm too old to be playing what is considered a 'kids' game.

If you think that you're 'too old' for Pokemon, and I disagree with anyone who believes that, then why did you sign up to a Pokemon-oriented forum? Seriously, you're never too old for Pokemon!

I like picking out my favorite Pokemon in the version, teaching them the moves I think are the smartest (having all HMs in party, at least one move of the type they are), and beating Gym Leaders. It's kind of annoying, but I also like trying to fill the Pokedex.

The ability to do what can't be done in real life. To step away from reality and spend time in a fantasy world of glorious dream where fire-breathing lizards, electric mice and liquid foxes are all normal life.
I thrive upon imagination, so for me, Pokemon isn't just a game, or a TV series - it's a way of life, an obsession. I love Pokemon like i love food - i can't get enough and i could die without it.
For without Pokemon what is this world? Think of the things children would not have learnt. Think of the millions of imaginations that would not have been nurtured.
and for all this i can only say: Thankyou. Thankyou to the creators of Pokemon, thankyou to everyone who lent a hand in it's production, and mostly thankyou to the millions of fans that have keot the magic alive. Thankyou
you have the passion of the trainer,I respect you for I feel the same way

You know, now that I think about it, I'm really not sure why I like Pokemon. I guess it's because the whole concept of bonding with a creature that has incredible powers is a pretty cool one. Also, it takes planning and skill to succeed in that game, so it really gives you a chance to recognize your full potential.

I think your completly wright. The show pokemon is rarely ever good in the US. People like it in china/japan tho. Usually before ppl get into sumthing they read it by the first thing they see. And when they see sum stupid piece of on a saterday morning they think everyhting about it is that way.(the mewtwo move was cool though)
Also i like pokemon because its so versitile. You could have it thogh you have absolutly no strategy and jsut rush in. Or you could be realy strategic and stuff.
(heart) it or hate it.

This is actually a hard question for me. It's one of those that I've never thought of before. However, back on-subject, I think I like it because it's fun and really keeps me busy. I also like it because it's portable. I loved it when I was 4 years old and can't seem to shake it off. In some ways, I want to stop liking it, and in others, want to keep liking it.

Pokemon has fascinated me ever since i was a little kid. It's hard actualy to find a reason not to like it. People divide into two catagories: the ones who like POKEMON and the ones who don't know what it is.
