The implication given in this article is that Tajiri and friends made Capsule Monsters in 1975 - at the age of 10, 9 for Sugimori, and that Game Freak and Creatures existed before then. This is highly improbable.

I believe I can finally clarify this. I've traced this rumor back to a single magazine: the "100% Unofficial Pokémon Trainer's Guide published by Hard Core Gaming Guides. In it, there is a timeline of Pokémon that claims that they debuted in a manga in the 1970s. The picture of said manga? A close-up of ''Doraemon''! Clearly, whoever was during research for this magazine just assumed that one "mon" was as good as another. I hope this finally puts this rumor to rest. --[[User:Zeta|Zeta]] ([[User talk:Zeta|talk]]) 23:45, 3 February 2013 (UTC) | I believe I can finally clarify this.

I think this page needs more. It's very game-centric, barely mentioning the anime and manga and the other parts of the franchise that made it a worldwide phenomenon. It also editorializes. Who's to say that D/P makes a "wonderful addition" to the franchise? Just a thought. --[[User:Greengiant|Greengiant]] 18:48, 20 May 2007 (UTC) | I think this page needs more.
