    The main draw to Pokémon has always been the adorable lttle monsters. My desire to have pets that cold murder me in my sleep, but would look cute doing it keeps me coming back to Pokémon.

    Probably the creatures themselves, many ways to play and of course the community. Even when I'm going through a period where I don't play the games as much, I'm always involved with Pokémon in one way or another :3

    Well, Pokémon is a phenomenon that still circles us today, and it's only getting bigger. I think the idea of it being connected with our childhood, the new creatures and regions...just the joy of bonding with virtual monsters and exploring lands we otherwise wouldn't be able to in real life. It's all just a really unique and addictive experience, honestly!

    Ahh, Pokémon... a game where ordinary people become heroes, adventurers, explorers and friends to powerful creatures. The games are really fun and draw players to the depths of gaming experiences! What's more, everything in the games have meaning to it. Trading cards, merchandise and the anime too - Pokémon is a large spectacular series that grows alongside its fans and players. Most people in the community are kind too! Tournaments allow people to gather as one. There is just so much to Pokémon!

    Honestly, trying to find the number one reason you like Pokémon is like trying to nail Jello to a tree. Pokémon has so much to it. Collecting, the creatures, the journeys, the regions, the heroes, the villians, the plot twists, the deeper meanings hidden for the older players, breeding, battling, the leagues, the battle animations, the stories themselves, the lore, the gathering of fellow fans, the cards, the manga, the games, the anime, oh my god the music for some of these things are great!, the movies, the books, the specials, the toys, the community, the way it just extends your childhood, the fact that you and your nieces/nephews/children can plan the same games together and help eachother without having to woory about inappropriate content (seriously this is really big for me), the list just goes on from there! What can't you do with Pokémon, that is the bigger question. Heck there was an unofficial song that mixed counting, Pokémon, barrack obama, and bill murry together! How in the world could anyone possible cap what Pokémon can and will do. I know I'm a big fan and a huge nerd over this but Pokémon LITERALLY has something for EEEEEVVVEEERRRRYYYYOOOOOOONE!

    Honestly it started and restarted because bandwagon. At least for me. I stay with it because my friends do it. I haven't played in a while, but I might start if I can get friends to play

    Pokémon was the first video game I ever played. The people and Pokémon you meet in the game make your adventure memorable and depending on what Pokémon you choose and how you battle can make each play through different.
    Not to mention the community Pokémon has created which allows people from all over the world to talk and express about the things that interest them about these games and why they love them.

    For me, Pokémon is part of my childhood, especially when my cousins and neighbors were watching the anime on the video players. Besides, usually main Pokémon games (and some notable spin-offs like PMD and Pokémon Ranger) are pretty good, which is one of the reason I'm coming back for more.

    I was over Pokémon when I was younger- but for some reason- the competitive aspect brought me back into it. I guess the reason it brought me in the first place would have to be the creatures themselves.

    Pokémon really doesn't need to have a plot to be good- it's really the concept of catching things that got me hooked.

    Well, it's Pokémon! It's pretty much the own franchise that managed to drag me in hook, line and sinker at an early age probably because that was pretty much the only series that ruled the school at that time. In all these years, it has never lost its awesomeness. I love the games, I love the world and I love all the fans!
