Have you ever wondered why Pokemon is still very popular? Pokémon, short for “Pocket Monsters”, started as a video game before it became a long-running anime in Japan with almost a thousand episodes, anime film series, movies, books, manga comics, top-selling trading card game, and toy brand, not to mention a social and media phenomenon.
Because of its popularity for more than two decades, it has garnered a devoted fan base around the world — popular with kids and adults alike. If you are looking for something special to give your pokemon lover friends or family members, you should check out this list of our suggested pokemon gifts.
