DS Daily: Gotta spin 'em off


Pokemon are playing pinball! They're on trading cards! They're in a video game about trading cards! They're exploring dungeons and, uh, ranging! They're posing for glamour shots! They're racing! They're matching groups of things! They're refusing to understand ineffectual orders! They're doing whatever happens in Pokemon Channel!

On their breaks from being crammed into containers and trained to fight each other, Pokemon are doing all kinds of stuff. Are you? Do you go in for these spinoffs? This question is directed at people who like the series, obviously-- if you think Pokemon is, in general, beneath you, then we know how you feel about the extensions to the franchise.
