Pokemon Culture

This sociological phrase was first coined by Pascale Cibrario on Saturday 16th March 2008. It is used to describe a phenomenon whereby children are swept into a tide of activities related to Pokemon. A victim of 'Pokemon Culture' or 'Pokeculture,' as it has become known, might trade Pokemon cards to an excessive degree, obsess over Pokemon merchandise, find themselves irreversibly addicted to the computer game or might categorically record and watch each and every episode of the cartoon TV series. Whilst not all children are susceptible to 'Pokemon Culture,' for those that fall foul of its wiles, it can prove potentially dangerous.
