What is the main goal of Pokemon?

~-Overheat-~

Black/White!
To catch them all hence the popular "Gotta catch em all"?

OR

To become the strongest pokemon trainer?

The older games were to catch em all.
Nowadays people tend to make Pokemon the strongest.
But me I dont bother catching em all now I just battle.

Pokédex Complete!
To get the perfect trainer card.

This entails beating the elite four, catching 'em all, winning at contests, completing the underground flag challenge and having a nice win/lose score.

In emerald an platinum this also innvolves beating the battle frontier.

It depends on the person
you can either decide to
catch them all
or do contests or battle
or anything.
or all of them ^_^

Back in the day *flashback*

The goal was to catch 'em all...but now *flashback ends*

people just want to be the best. You have a choice of what to do. Freedom.
 

Affirmative

STOP RESETTIN'!
The main goal of Pokémon is variable.

If you haven't beaten the game yet, endeavor to beat it.

If you have, either start a new game or make your Pokémon as weird as possible.

Or you could add challenges to new games you start, like one-runs, maybe try no heal items, or no TMs...bunches of stuff.

Recently i find the goal in the newer games is to breed,train and fight Pokemon to the best of their ability, and maybe to "Catch' em all", i don't know.

In the first few it was more about the "Gotta catch' em all" thing, although i could say getting them to level 100 as well was a main thing.

To take over the world and overthrow our perfect government

The goal is: To make a lot of money in as little time as possible.

That is what the creators of Pokemon believe anyway, and so do I...

Like many games, Pokemon doesn't have a specific goal: you try catching every pokemon in the game (good luck =D), try to get every contest ribbon, create a great team and battle people all around world...
You can do all kinds of things in these games, as long as you have fun. At least that's what I believe lol
