"Pocket Monsters"
one of the fictional species of
Pokémon creatures from the multi-billion-dollar
a collection of video games, anime, manga,
books, trading cards, and other media
created by Satoshi Tajiri.
The concept of the Pokémon universe,
in both the video games and the
general fictional world of Pokémon,
stems from the hobby of insect collecting,
a popular pastime which Pokémon
executive director Satoshi Tajiri-Oniwa
enjoyed as a child.
