A franchise that started in 1997 when Bandai introduced a spin off of Tamagotchi which feature a new monster called Digimon.I used to have one of it back in 1998 and it is fun to raise Digimon and use to battle with friend.This show is considered by many as a Pokemon rip off,well it actually kinda rip off of Pokemon but the show itself is quite different from Pokemon.The show is great and it would be boring growing up with Pokemon alone...
Digimon might be a rip off of Pokemon,but I thinks its best that we accept it as part of the genre rather than a rip off.

A terrible ripoff made by Bandai to cash in on the success of Pokémon, only liked by those with the intelligence and taste of a leech.
Fanboy: Dude, Digimon is the best! Way better than Pokéshit!
Man with taste: You play Digimon? Kid, I've been playing Pokémon since you were crapping in diapers.

Listen, I know alot of you people say that digimon is better than pokemon, but let me give you the real definition. The truth is, Digimon is just as bad and stupid as Pokemon. They both orginally started out as games, and they probably would've been a lot better if they just stayed as games and were never adapted into animes.
Anyway, even though the digimon series does have an actual plot, they are very simple and themes are just repeated over and over again in each season. Plus the themes are really simple and are usually things a regular kid would discover by making friends.

Listen losers. Digimon is just as bad pokemon and they would probably be awesome today if they had just stayed as a video game series like they were in the beginning.

A manga/anime which was created in Japan and brought into the U.S. in 1999.
It is now in 4 seasons, and 1 movie.
In Japan, it is 5 seasons and 7 movies.
The show is considered to be a copy of Pokemon, when in fact it was created before, so if any copying was done, it was the other way around.
Digimon is a very secessful show, with millions of fanbases around the world.
It is the one kick-*** show thats for every age.
DIGIMON SHALL LIVE FOREVER!!!!

everyone thinks digimon first came out as an anime series or trading card game, well...it's neither. it first came out as a electronic pet. something similar to the tamagochi, but also being able to battle with it.

A show meant for ALL those with a pulse to enjoy. It has die hard fans, such as Sardonic Genie, great characters with really meaningful story plots, a cool soundtrack, along with tons of very powerful and funny creatures. The show revolves around a group of children with entirely different personas who are chosen to defend the world from the negative energies and forces in the digital world, along with their positive digimon partners. It changes it's rules to play the hero game every season, but that's just one of the fun parts about it.

a great anime show from japan. many people say it is a pokemon ripoff but in fact digimon was around first in the form of a battling tamagotchi. digimon is arguably better than pokemon in the fact that every episode of digimon had a moral wheras pokemon repeats the same story in every show. it has original creatures...unlike pokemon. if you want to find a pokemon ripoff look at monster rancher.
