  • Pikachu's Global Adventure
    Pikachus Global Adventure Joseph Tobin In the last years of the last millennium, a new consumer phenomenon devel- oped in Japan and swept across the globe. Pokémon, which began life as a piece of software to be played on Nintendo’s Game Boy (a hand-held gaming computer), quickly diversified into a comic book, a television show, a movie, trading cards, stickers, small toys, and ancillary products such as backpacks and T-shirts. Entering into production and licensing agreements with Japanese com- panies including GameFreak, Creatures, Inc., Shogakukan Comics, and TV To- kyo, and with companies abroad including their wholly owned subsidiary, Nintendo of America, Wizards of the Coast (now a division of Hasbro), 4Kids Entertainment and the Warner Brothers Network, Nintendo created a set of inter- related products that dominated children’s consumption from approximately 1996 to 2000. Pokémon is the most successful computer game ever made, the top globally selling trading card game of all time, one of the most successful child- ren’s television programs ever broadcast, the top grossing movie ever released in Japan, and among the five top earners in the history of films worldwide. At Pokémon’s height of popularity, Nintendo executives were optimistic that they had a product, like Barbie and Lego, that would sell forever, and that, like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, would become enduring icons worldwide. But by the end of 2000, Pokémon fever had subsided in Japan and the United States, even as the products were still being launched in such countries as Brazil, Italy, and Israel. As I write this article, Pokémon’s control of shelf- space and consumer consciousness seems to be declining, most dramatically in Japan and the United States.

"Children were so happy they could play on the train after school and before the inevitable evening crash courses," recalled Hirokazu Hamamura, head of Enterbrain, a publishing company on the gaming industry.

    ARC ONE PART FIVE I’ve been working on cultivating more reasonable expectations of my own output, and a fact I don’t want to accept, but I feel I must… I really love the ideas I had for Brink. But the size of the story, combined with the lack of time I have for it, means that finishing it would be impossible. With that in mind, I’ve had to make the difficult decision to shelve the rest of what I had developed for Pokémon Rebirth. However, I don’t plan to leave you with unanswered questions. Rather, I am going to share the plan documents for what would have been the remainder of Brink. You will get an exclusive look at just how these stories were constructed, with plot notes, excerpts of dialogue and concept art to help you get an idea for what the finished work might have been. If you are inspired by what you read and wish to create further illustrations, I would be honoured! Please send the art either via Twitter [NiloStudo] or my email [gemmaDOTbrightATgmailDOTcom]. • A month has passed. Our scene begins at Kanto's northern Agrarian Seer repository. One of the seers living at the repository is surprised to see Mewtwo's arrival. He is running an errand for the Fiore seers, but his visit also has ulterior motives. ??? - Brother Tsu?
