Thinking about the Pokemon often associated with them to games, to cartoons, in general to children. If I told you that this year i Pokèmon turn 25? It's been a long time, it must be admitted that the Pokèmon universe has grown together with its fans.
The evolution of Pokémon: from the Game Boy games to Pokèmon Go
I Pokémon originate in Japan, in the early nineties when the creator, Satoshi Tajiri gets in touch with the Game Boy. Inspired by his passion as a collector of insects, he works on the idea of creating the “Pocket Monsters”, virtual creatures with the monstrous appearance of animals to be collected. In 1996 the idea comes to life. This is how the first two Pokèmon video games were born, in which the player can care for and train 151 creatures of various kinds and abilities and make them fight with Pokémon from other trainers. The video game was so successful that it was thought to create one animated tv series, the one we all saw as children. From there an uphill process began: Pokèmon became a cult. Games, stickers, collectible cards, accessories, the franchise has exploded and expanded, conquering the hearts of the little ones, every millennial has loved Pokèmon.
Pokèmon's ability to renew itself
Speaking of Pokèmon it is wrong to think that it is "games" or things for children. It is a real extended company capable of intercepting trends. Pokèmon's success is due to the video game's ability to develop and follow trends and technologies. The franchise has managed to resist for so long thanks to its spirit of adaptation: Pokèmon has evolved together with its fans. This ability to reinvent itself and evolve has led the company to become a video game, then a cartoon, a manga, a film, but also a version of Monopoly, the graphics of clothing and even an app.
Pokèmon Go, the game for smartphones
Pokèmon a few years ago also became a ' app per smartphone. Pokémon Go is one of a kind video game free-to-play based on geolocated augmented reality with GPS, what does it mean? That it is a free game, easy to use, which bases its environment on where you are while using it. In every corner of the city and the street you can find a Pokemon, a gym or another user to challenge. Creating a free app was a winning move to return to the hearts of those who followed the Pokèmon as children but over time had lost their passion. You don't need any console (many don't have one), nor spend money to buy the game, everyone can feel like a coach at no cost.
