With its simple yet ingenious premise of capturing elemental creatures who transform into new forms, the Pokémon franchise became a keystone of 1990s culture. Beginning as video games released on the Nintendo Game Boy, the franchise soon released a trading card game, manga series, and anime, which transformed it into a multimedia juggernaut. The number of Pokémon themselves has reached over 1000, and that number is set to increase even further in the upcoming games, Pokémon Winds and Waves.
