Put your childhood dreams into a game and you get one of the most popular anime/games in the modern pop culture. I personally was never this excited about a game, and judging by the reception neither was a bunch of other Pokemon fans. This was a one of a kind game that combined something new with something we loved. Also forcing everyone to actually go out of their houses, and follow their childhood dreams.
