Pokemon vs. Digimon

I used to like Digimon loads.

These days, not so much, teh Poket Monsters beat teh Digital Monsters.

...

You now what's weird? I misspelt teh as the.

Edit: Looking back at previous posts, I agree with the person who said Digimon Anime beats Pokemon Anime.

I liked the show, Season 3 the best, Season 4 sucked though...
Savers looks good though...... Even though Agumon looks ugly in it...

I do like Pokemon better, But I like Digimon too, They are both different...
I dunno why eveyone hates it, so What if it has Mon in the name, thats the only way they are alike! (And the monsters evolving and fighting thing...)

I dont know why Pokemon Fans and Digimon Fans hate each other so much. I am a fan of both but Digimon has been gone a while

i like the digimon animes better than pokemon also.i'm about equal on the movies though.but something i never did like a about digimon is all the unstable digivolutions(how two or more diff. digimon can divolve into the same digimon).but their are a lot more digimon and a lot of other things about digimon that make sense for that.

Two of my made up Pokemon, Cammy and Pammie, are also Digimon. Cammy(11'11) is a rookie, and Pammie (48'10) is a champion. I'm planning on making the first stage sammy a in training (even though he's 5'0)

I like the animation better in the later seasons of Digimon and their anime is far more interesting. But i find the Pokemon characters more slashable *cough* The Digimon games are poor though. I can't be arsed with them.

Pokemon is still better IMO though.

Well I like both. The first 2 seasons of Digimon were great and then it went downhill. But i have to say pokemon is better. Pokemon kept the main characters and digimon didn't which upset me. And the pokemon games beat the digimon games by a long shot. But in the end i like both.

*ahem* Being a fan of both since the day that each hit the States, I have formed my own opinions about this. I have also seen the best and the worst of each side of the fandom, and I can say that both are not pretty.

I stopped following both shows. For Pokémon, the episodes followed the same formula. Also, it became awfully pathetic to never see a stitch of character development on that show. Digimon, however, had all that and more. And besides, I just liked the humans of Digimon more.

I stopped playing both games. For Pokémon, I stopped because it gets boring raising your Pokémon up with no new challenges. For Digimon, I stopped because it was too challenging, and I find games easier after I take a long break from them.

So, I find the Digimon franchise as a whole better. If you ask me about the fans...I can't give an answer.

And yes, I am a fan of Season Four of Digimon. It is actually my favorite season, but this is not the thread to discuss that.

And "laugh out loud" at those who posted "digimon is the sucks" even when the first post stated not to do so...

And "laugh out loud" at the member who quoted the other who posted porn. The original post is gone, but not the quoted one~! Which means we can still see it~!

And: Digimon is copyrighted 1991. Pokémon is copyrighted 1996. ~.~

first season of the digimon anime was better than the first season of pokemon but the second season became too repetetive. The pokemon games have always been way better. Sure they may be repetetive but not as much as digimon season 2. II never really got into the digimon games. I couldn't get to grips with the mechanics.

What do I put here?
The main reason I don't like the Digimon cartoon/anime whatever, is that I just could *not* relate or sympathise with the main character in anyway. He annoyed me in fact, and the main reason is that I could not find any flaws in him or his personality. And if you don't like the main character...then its not likely you're going to like much else of the programme. It was kind of interesting, but its not something I *had* to watch. I can't say that there was tons of character development in Pokemon (if any), but I just liked the characters more in that show. Ash thought he was great, but he knew absolutly nothing, Misty was kind of bossy and Brock was...er...Brock. It was fun and happy, not everything went right but it was somewhat believeable. In Digimon they went to a different world that was kind of depressing and I was just kind of like...um...yeah.

You know what sucks about Digimon the Movie, it was a cut and paste version of three other movies, to bad they did that, I read the original synopsis for their plots and I find them more interesting

Another reason I like Pokemon more is because the pokemon are more original.
People say GF is running out of pokemonideas, well look at this for digimon

Koromon, Metal Koromon
Botamon, Yukimibotamon
Agumon, Snowagumon, Toyagumon
Angemon, Pidomon (looks exactly the same)

And in the movie X Evolution, many digimon were given alternate form, like OmnimonX, MagnamonX.

If Pokemon did this then they would have just as many pokemon as digimon. The names in digimon are also inconsistent. In season two they called one of the baby digimon yukiminbotamon, but on a rerun it was called snowbtamon, and rockmon is sometimes called golemon in the anime and sometimes rockmon. Cherubimon also used a different name in the digimon movie
