AnimeYume.com's Pokemon Survey

Description:

Even though Pokemon's popularity has diminished and, sadly, it's looked down on by most anime fans, there are still many "veteran" Pokemon fans left(like me! ^_^) So if you're one of those people who still likes and respects Pokemon for being one of the first animes and Japanese games to gain immense popularity outside of Japan, then I hope you enjoy this survey!
