Pikachu! While I may not be the biggest fan of Pokemon, I am a big fan of funny, and this Pikachu is funny. He’s fat, he’s lazy, and he seems largely indifferent to the world around him. Sure, he could still fry you, but he just doesn’t give a damn.

Aww Pikachu, you’re so adorable! So adorable, in fact, that I almost forgot that you shot lighting bolts everywhere in my kitchen and burned my house to the ground. But look at those cute little fingers!

Looks like the Prince took a roll through the Mushroom Kingdom! And Hyrule. And the world of Pokemon. And Metroid. There’s even a Tetris block in there!

If you’re looking forward to the newest installment in the Pokemon franchise, then you should check out the official site for the game. Recently, the site was updated to feature the world map of Isshu…

I thought this was going to be a slow week for me, but instead I ended up getting a ton of cool Nintendo stuff. The first three items shown in this week’s main picture are Nintendo …

GameFreak’s Junichi Masuda has posted a blog entry today detailing some new features of Pokémon Black & White. The most notable piece of information is that players will not be seeing anything but new Pokémon until the end of the game…

In the interest of not getting anyone fired, I’ve labeled today’s fan art as NSFW due to some pretty brutal cartoon gore. If you’d like to see a zombified Pikachu – and really, who wouldn’t? – I’ve slapped it on the bottom of this post.

Pokémon Trainers in the US will soon be able to access the “Enigma Stone”- a mysterious in-game item that will allow players to encounter and catch the elusive legendaries Latios and Latias…

I’m not a big fan of Pokemon, but I probably would be if all of the designs were as macabre and downright awesome as this Poliwrath. But I definitely understand why this could maybe upset children a tiny bit …

If I’ve learnt anything when it comes to Pokemon it’s that they never change. It’s always the same rehashed concepts and ideas with a new coat of paint. Where’s the originality and creativity in that? Well the following footage shows that I may actually have to rethink how I feel about the Pokemon franchise as a whole…

The release of a brand new Pokémon game is starting to sink in again, and fans like me are getting into the “jealous of Japanese fans” period in the release schedule. This time, it’s the pre-order bonuses for Pokémon Black and White…

As a long running trend in the Pokemon series, the two games often vary in content albeit only slightly. Pokemon Silver saw the return of Lugia, whilst its counterpart Pokemon Gold saw Ho-oh return to the shit to rip shit up. Well the batton has been passed onto the newest series spawns: Pokemon Black and Pokemon White…

I love the black and white. Two versions of Pokemon living side by side. It’s a wonderful thing isn’t it? Also they have a release date.

Nintendo have announced via their website that the brand new entries in the Pokémon series will be coming to the US and Europe in Spring 2011 (about six months after the Japanese release date in September).

Nintendo have today announced that they will be providing pre-order customers of Pokémon Heart Gold and Soul Silver with one of two Pokémon figures. If you pre-order Soul Silver, you get the Lugia figure, which as you can see is a decent-looking figure. If you pre-order Heart Gold, you get the completely shit Ho-oh figure. [...]
