Pokémon is good, but...
Digimon is superior.
Videogames: Draw
Pokémon got only two truely great games. Red/Blue and Gold/Silver. So does Digimon. Digimon World and Digimon World 2003. Both Digimon and Pokémon got other good games (Rumble Arena, World 4, Ruby/Sapphire, Diamond/Pearl, etc.), but only 2 games that you will never forget, have you completed them. So, in the videogames department, it's a draw. The Pokémon games got both great music and design, where as Digimon had that awesome feeling of exploring a weird world + good music. Even if 3D, I won't say that Digimon got better graphics than Pokémon, as there was a certain charm to the graphics of the two best Pokémon games. So, it's a draw in the game department.
Anime: Digimon
Are you tired of Team Rocket being blasted off again? Tired of Ash never making any progress? Tired of bullsh!t? So am I. Digimon had 2 series which weren't quite on par with the other (season 2 and season 4). But season 1, season 3 and season 5... True classic animes. What's more, Digimon got deeper characters than in Pokémon. Digimon by far wins here.
Comics: Pokémon
Digimon got some amusing comics, yet Pokémon Adventure should give Pokémon an obvious advantage here, even if repetive and filled with lame characters.
All-around: Digimon
It's pretty even, but the Digimon animes simply makes it superior. And when we talk videogames, well... I might be a bit biased, but I lean a little towards Digimon. Also, the Digimon world is much more flexible and creative.
