Pokemon: My Favorite Hobby

Do you know I like Pokemon? That’s great if you know. Pokemon’s origin is from the country Japan. Japan is one of my favorite places, even though I haven’t been there but it looks like a great place to me, full of Anime shows and manga, they have great voice actors/actresses, and wonderful singers. The other great thing about Japan is that they are intelligent and make toys for kiddies, and even electronic systems. That’s why Japan is my favorite country, and I wish I was girl growing up in Japan. They have such interesting things that United States, Mexico and other countries don’t have. Now back to topic a Japanese person named Satoshi Tajiri is the creator of the Anime show Pokemon. Pokemon aired in Japan on 1995 and on the U.S.A 1996 or 1997. The show has 13 years of airing on TV, and the most popular show for kids on Cartoon Network and CW 4Kids.
I like Pokemon because for its show, TCG (trading card game), and video games. 1st of all I like the show because it has lot more action than the TCG and Video Games. Seasons 1-8 were the best because it had the Original voice actors, now seasons 9-12 are not so good because it has new voice actors, so I would think the show right now is so-so. Pokemon fans of the show and I too, are trying to help the original voice actors get their roles back, since they were fired without a notice.
2nd reason I like it’s because for its video games, I do not want to miss any of the video games. It does have some kind of action in it, and you can battle people from all over your country. My other 3rd reason why I like it, it’s because of The Trading Card Games. You can buy cards in big stores like Wal-Mart, flea market and other big stores. With your cards you can trade, battle and maybe sell them if you want. People may sometimes give you their weak cards and keep the strong ones, and they fool you to give them your own strong ones. Believe me, I’ve been fooled. So watch out for those people, they are called Pokemon TCG hunters (well, that’s what I call ‘em, lol).
That’s why I like Pokemon so much, and you can probably tell.
Beware, for those Pokemon TCG hunters, and if you play Video games watch out for the hackers. By the way, when I mean hackers it’s because some people are lazy to complete or finish games the hard way. I’ve seen alot people use Action Replay to finish the game or to simple way to “cheat” in the game. I like completing the game the hard way, because it’s much fun than just using a “look-like-Memory-card” piece.
I’ve had a lot of fun playing and completing the games, so far I’ve completed…”Mario Bros.2,Pokemon Platinum, Fire Red, Sapphire, Leaf Green, SoulSilver,Pearl,Zelda,I spy-Challenger and Others. I have not cheated in games.
So don’t cheat in your favorite games, or you won’t be happy. =D
My story’s ending is about how I’ve completed some of my favorite games, and talk about how hackers and TCG hunters work as one, and also who created Pokémon: Pocket Monsters Original Series, Advanced Generation and Diamond and Pearl.
