The Pokémon franchise all began with Satoshi Tajiri, who, as a child, loved catching insects and tadpoles near his home in suburban Tokyo. Inspired by this childhood hobby, Tajiri envisioned a game where players could capture creatures, much like he did with insects. With the help of friends and collaborators, including artist Ken Sugimori, Tajiri founded Game Freak and embarked on a journey that would lead to the creation of the iconic Pocket Monsters (Pokémon) games. These games, released on the Game Boy in 1996, became sleeper hits and paved the way for manga series, a trading card game, anime adaptations, and a global phenomenon that continues to captivate fans worldwide.
