The vagaries of children's tastes couldn't bring it down. Even the merciless satire of South Park couldn't kill it. After 10 years, Satori Tajiri's creation is unstoppable.

TV Tokyo will air the latest in the Pokémon saga, Pocket Monsters: Diamond & Pearl, on September 28, 2006. This comes shortly after the news that The Cartoon Network will show Pokémon: Battle Frontier this fall. Even though Pokémon isn't the cultural force it once was, the associated video games are very popular, and the collectible card game is a very strong seller.
