Pokemon Y Version Download

[Phuong Fulsom]

Pokmona] is a series of video games developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo and The Pokmon Company under the Pokmon media franchise. It was created by Satoshi Tajiri with assistance from Ken Sugimori, the first games, Pocket Monsters Red and Green, were released in 1996 in Japan for the Game Boy, later released outside of Japan as Pokmon Red Version and Blue Version. The main series of role-playing video games (RPGs), referred as the "core series" by their developers,[1][2][3] has continued on each generation of Nintendo's handhelds. The most recently released core series games, Pokmon Scarlet and Violet, were released on November 18, 2022, for the Nintendo Switch.

In addition to Game Freak's development, Creatures provides support through their Pokmon CG Studio, which creates 3D models for the Pokmon in the games, and also develops some spin-off titles. In 1998, Nintendo, Creatures, and Game Freak jointly established The Pokmon Company, which manages licensing, production, publishing, marketing and deals for the franchise both within Asia and worldwide through The Pokmon Company International.[4][5][6]

The core games are released in generations, each with different Pokmon, storylines, and characters. Remakes of the games are usually released around a decade after the original versions for the latest console at the time. While the main series consists of RPGs developed by Game Freak, many spin-off games based on the series have been developed by various companies, encompassing other genres such as action role-playing, puzzle, fighting, and digital pet games.

Pokmon is one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time, with successful anime series, movies, and merchandise, with spin-off game Pokmon Go having crossed 1 billion mobile game downloads worldwide.[7] By November 24, 2017, more than 300 million Pokmon games had been sold worldwide on handheld and home consoles, across 76 titles, including spin-offs.[8] As of March 2023[update], the series has sold over 480 million units worldwide.[9] This makes Pokmon the third best-selling video game franchise, behind Nintendo's own Mario franchise, and Tetris.

Another consistent aspect is that the player's rival will always choose the type that has a type advantage over the player's chosen Pokmon as their starter Pokmon (excluding Sun and Moon, Sword and Shield, and Scarlet and Violet). For instance, if the player picks the Fire-type Charmander, the rival will always pick the Water-type Squirtle. This does not affect the first battle between the rivals, as they can only use Normal-type attacks at this point, meaning that they cannot exploit weaknesses. The exception to this is again Pokmon Yellow, in which the rival picks Eevee, a Normal-type Pokmon with multiple evolutions. Sun and Moon also is an exception is this rule, as the rival picks the starter weak toward the player's starter, with the Pokmon that has the type advantage going to a trainer in the Champion battle.

However, in Pokmon Black and White, there are two rivals; one picks the Pokmon with a type advantage over the player's chosen Pokmon, while the other chooses the Pokmon with the type disadvantage. In Pokmon Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, another Trainer chooses the Pokmon with a type disadvantage to the player's chosen Pokmon, but never battles the player; instead, this character battles alongside the player as a tag partner in certain situations.

The situation is similar in Pokmon X and Y, but there are four rivals. Two of them receive the starter Pokmon in an arrangement similar to Pokmon Black and White, but the other two have completely different Pokmon.[14]

All of the licensed Pokmon properties overseen by The Pokmon Company are divided roughly by generation. These generations are roughly chronological divisions by release; when an official sequel in the main role-playing game series is released that features new Pokmon, characters, and possibly new gameplay concepts, that sequel is considered the start of a new generation of the franchise. The main games and their spin-offs, the anime, manga, and trading card game are all updated with the new Pokmon properties each time a new generation begins. The franchise began its ninth and current generation with Pokmon Scarlet and Violet, which were released worldwide for the Nintendo Switch on November 18, 2022.

The original Pokmon games are Japanese role-playing video games (RPGs) with an element of strategy and were created by Satoshi Tajiri for the Game Boy. The Pokmon series began with the release of Pocket Monsters Red and Green for the Game Boy in Japan. When these games proved popular, an enhanced Blue version was released sometime after, and the Blue version was reprogrammed as Pokmon Red and Blue for international release. The original Green version was not released outside Japan.[15] Afterwards, a second enhanced remake, Pokmon Yellow, was released to use the color palette of the Game Boy Color and more of a stylistic resemblance to the popular Pokmon anime.

This first generation of games introduced the original 151 species of Pokmon (in National Pokdex order, encompassing all Pokmon from Bulbasaur to Mew), as well as the basic game concepts of capturing, training, battling and trading Pokmon with both computer and human players. These versions of the games take place within the fictional Kanto region, though the name "Kanto" was not used until the second generation.

Spin-off first-generation titles include Pokmon Pinball; an adaptation of the Pokmon Trading Card Game for Game Boy Color; an on-rails photography simulator for Nintendo 64 titled Pokmon Snap; a Nintendo 64 Pokmon-themed adaptation of Tetris Attack, Pokmon Puzzle League. A 3D Nintendo 64 incarnation of the handhelds' battle system, Pokmon Stadium; and a co-starring role for several species in the Nintendo 64 fighting game Super Smash Bros..[16] At the Nintendo Space World in 2000, a game was revealed briefly with Meowth and Team Rocket singing a song. This was one of the earliest introductions of the Pokmon Togepi and Bellossom. This game was called Meowth's Party, but was not developed into a playable game. Instead, the song/video was played at the end of an episode of Pokmon, and a CD was made for retail in Japan for a limited time. This is the first time MissingNo. was discovered.

The second generation of Pokmon video games began in 1999 with the Japanese release of Pokmon Gold and Silver for the Game Boy Color, with Australia and North America getting the game in October 2000 and European release date of April 2001. Like the previous generation, an enhanced version, titled Pokmon Crystal, was later released.

This generation introduced 100 new species of Pokmon (starting with Chikorita and ending with Celebi), for a total of 251 Pokmon to collect, train, and battle. New gameplay features include a day-and-night system (reflecting the time of the day in the real world) which influences events in the game; full use of the Game Boy Color's color palette; an improved interface and upgraded inventory system; better balance in the collection of Pokmon and their moves, statistics and equipable items (a new addition); the addition of two new Pokmon types (Dark and Steel) to better balance the strengths and weaknesses of each Pokmon; Pokmon breeding; and a new region named Johto. After exploring Johto, the player can travel east to explore the adjacent Kanto region.

The third generation introduced 135 new Pokmon (starting with Treecko and ending with Deoxys) for a total of 386 species. It also features a more visually detailed environment compared to previous games, "natures" which affect Pokmon stats, a new 2-on-2 Pokmon battling mechanic, a special ability system applying to each Pokmon in battle, the Pokmon Contest sub-game, the new region of Hoenn, the ability to select the protagonist's gender and Secret Bases: customizable "rooms" where the player can display items they have collected in-game and battle against real friends. Secret Bases can be found in bushes, trees, or small cave openings in landscapes by using the Pokmon move, Secret Power, which can be taught to virtually all Pokmon. However, this generation also garnered some criticism for leaving out several gameplay features, including the day-and-night system introduced in the previous generation (which was removed due to internal-battery save problems), and it was also the first installment that encouraged the player to collect merely a selected assortment of the total number of Pokmon rather than every existing species (202 out of 386 species are catchable in the Ruby and Sapphire versions). It was around this time that the franchise was regaining its popularity, managing to ship over 100 million games worldwide.[18][19]

In 2006, Japan began the fourth generation of the franchise with the release of Pokmon Diamond and Pearl for Nintendo DS. The games were released in North America on April 22, 2007, and in Australia on June 21, 2007. The game was released in the UK and Europe on July 27, 2007.[20] Other main series games in the fourth generation include Pokmon Platinum, a director's cut version of Diamond and Pearl in the same vein as Pokmon Yellow, Crystal, and Emerald.[21][22] It was released for the Nintendo DS in Japan on September 13, 2008,[23] in North America on March 22, 2009,[24][25] and in Australia and Europe on May 14, 2009,[26] and May 22, 2009,[27] respectively. It was also announced that Pokmon Gold and Silver would be remade for the Nintendo DS as Pokmon HeartGold and SoulSilver.[28] Released in Japan on September 12, 2009, the games were later released to North America, Australia, and Europe during March 2010.[29][30][31]
