Digimon sucked. Had horrible theme music and bad characters.

Pokemon <3

Not to mention Digimon was made first, including the trading cards. Pokemon basically was a more simplistic rip-off of Digimon.

However, though I liked Digimon it didn't make too much sense with it came to the digivolving part. They would turn something the size of your head into something 20 times your size. -- Sure, since when did it have to make sense? Never really, just something that was always a bit weird for me frankly.

I like Digimon more, but the Pokemon games are just unstoppable obviously.

This is no competition. Pokemon was the shitttt. I remember the day when holographics made me jizz. Oh, the simple life.

When I gave my brother my huge collection of Pokemon cards, I kept all of the holographic ones for myself so I could sell them when I was old ;]

**Staiain** · 01-29-2011, 05:48 PM

Pokemon is awesome, i still love it like i did as a kid 8)

**Velocity** · 01-29-2011, 06:20 PM

First Digimon movie was the best.

Red/Blue/Yellow = Complete with 151 caught. (<3 Mew Glitch)
Gold/Silver/Crystal = Complete
Sapphire = Complete pokedex and 350 hours
Pearl/Platinum = Complete pokedex and 500 hours total
Black/White = wtf are these things...

I still own every portable Pokemon game in English. So Pokemon gets my vote.

"A debate among fans exists over which of the two franchises came first. In actuality, the first Pokémon media, Pokémon Red and Blue, were released initially on February 27, 1996 in Japan; whereas the Digimon virtual pet was released on June 26, 1997."

yeah no nice try tho

Definitely pokemon. I've been a pokemon geek since it started (still kinda am), and after countless hours spent on the games it's definitely better than digimon. I have played digimon though (world 3 for ps1) and it's a good game, but not as good as pokemon.

One example of my extreme love for pokemon from back in the day was playing pokemon blue (3 years after it came out) and stopping at the entrance of Mt.Moon. I would enter mt.moon and catch zubat, geodude, and clefairy. then I would come back out of the entrance and train in the patch of of grass right below. The crazy part is I'd train every pokemon I had to level 20 (even the magikarp) before I continued to cerulean, and the pokemon I battled were only level 9 at highest. I had 11 pokemon trained to level 20 (I think that would be 20 pokemon in my pokedex without getting past Mt.Moon). Took about 2 days.

Talk about extreme preparation huh? xD

Is your source by chance, Wikipedia?

As opposed to your source, absolutely nothing? I think I'll take Wikipedia.

Digimon is actually a ripoff of Tamagotchi. They are those little key chain "pets" that you could take care of.

They definitely capitalized on the success of Pokemon with the movies and TV shows, but they do make sense on their own, and they never really copied the "Gotta Catch 'Em All" format of Pokemon that others, like Monster Rancher, did.

**PrawnSkunk** · 01-30-2011, 01:19 PM

I've caught two shinies in ruby (not glitched, just by chance) so Pokemon has my vote.
