The Complete Book Of Pokemon

Product Description

Welcome to the world of Pokemon. For 25 years, this series has entertained leagues of aspiring gamers. Starting as a mere idea in the mind of Satoshi Tajiri, drawing from his experiences catching bugs as a child, it grew into a duet of Game Boy games that captured the hearts of Japan.

From then, the Pocket Monsters set their sights on taking over the rest of the world by storm. Evolving to encompass videogames, toys, cards, manga, anime and more, Pokemon rapidly turned into a multimedia behemoth. Its super effective strategy of maintaining that popularity with regular updates of new monsters, games and regions to explore has ensured that it’s the most successful media franchise in the world.

Today, it’s almost impossible to find someone who doesn’t recognise the likes of Pikachu, Ash Ketchum or the iconic Poke Ball logo. Inside this special celebratory book, we’re going to take you on a journey from the very first Generation of Pokemon, all the way to the eighth. On our quest, we’ll learn about how each era brought something new to the series, explore each and every Pokedex expansion and delve deep into the stories behind the videogames, television series and more.

Whether you’re a Pokemon Professor or an aspiring Pokemon Master taking their first steps towards the Indigo Plateau, we’re confident that you’ll enjoy the ride.
