The History of Pokemon

by R.J.

     The history of Pokemon began around 1995. It is owned by Nintendo and was created by Satoshi Tajiri.  Pokemon came from Japan and was originally called Pocket Monsters which is  translated from Poketo Monsuta.  Nintendo rebranded it  Pokemon after a naming conflict  with the Monster in My Pocket Toy Line.  There are currently 493 fictional species of Pokemon.  There are trading cards, toys, books, video games, t.v. shows, and movies about Pokemon.  I like Pokemon, along with millions of people around the world.
