pokemon, I remember watching digimon when Iw as a kid, I think the story might have been a little deeper then pokemon? Or am i imagining things? I remember nothing anyway lol. But I never really got into it and stuck with pokemon. pokemon had the games, digimon had a few to but pokemon still blew it out of the water.
1st season of digimon is one of my favourite childhood shows. It went sideways from there tho. Played the 1st game on PS. result = meh
Pokemon games were good. Watched the show quite a bit as well.
I dunno. It's a draw for me. I guess I'll just check out some /e/ of May and Mimi and find out the tru winrar.
[QUOTE="Jakandsigz"]Remember when Digimon was actually just as much if not more popular than Pokemon? Tv show cards toys, games?JML897There was never a time when Digimon was even half as popular as Pokemon Yep all those figures showing Digimon has better ratings on TV and had more profitable movies are all lies.

A lot of pokemon fans don't give a shit about the anime. I played the games but never cared for the show. Pokemon's game sales slaughter Digimon's.
I'm having trouble finding the total revenue figures for each franchise but I would be really really surprised if Digimon has made half of what Pokemon has made

The games were not far apart in sales for a bit but then PKMn for a huge boost(although profit wise PKMN made more since that series takes less money to make then the Digimon games at the time.) Carts and shows though, Digimon, in fact, even with the boost, Digimon was still doing toys quite well along with PKMN. Digimon at some point, drive off a cliff, and that cliff was a 90 degree angle because Digimon almost vanished when it stopped doing well.Digimon came out one year earlier.I used to adore both as a kid. Like, a lot! I think my overall preference went towards Pokemon back then though due to the game and the fact that it came first.

The Pokemon show was ok, but I loved the games so I'll go with Pokemon. I only saw a few episodes of Digimon but I remember liking it.

Didn't digimon start as one of those tamagotchi type things?
I remember I had one well before I knew about pokemon

Yeah, it's own series.the digimon TV series was WAAAYY better. Every pokemon episode was EXACTLY the same. they meet someone with a problem, they use their pokemon to try to solve the problem, team rocket interferes, they beat team rocket, storys over, RINSE AND REPEAT. digimon was way better, not to mention their movie was better too. pokemon got stupid after the first 150 pokemon too.JustSignedUp:lol: Pokemon has had bad designs in every generation and Gen 1 is by far the worst.

Really? I never even heard of it before the anime, and by the time the anime first aired here Pokemon as already a year in.
