After his first game, several others were produced (of 43), and the series has expanded to several manga, a card game official, an anime - now in its 15th season - and 14 films already released. Pokémon became a milestone in pop culture of the 90s until 2003 and the sale of its games surpassed 180 million units worldwide, prompting the series to be the second best-selling Nintendo and also from around the world, both sometimes only behind the Mario Bros. series of games.
The origin of the whole series are video games made for consoles of Wasabi. The main features of the Pokémon games is the need to collect different monsters and the option to choose which will be part of the group of players and how they are trained. Several times, the games were considered innovative in the issue since the connection from Pokémon Red, Blue and Green the link between videogames was possible by connecting two Game Boys via the Game Link cable and allowing exchange and Pokémon battles between players. Company created by Game Freak, Pokémon games had the intent to interact with the players and make them interact with others, battling and trading Pokémon from one version to another.
