1. History of Pokemon
Pokemon (a portmanteau of "pocket monsters") started in the 1990s in Japan as a video game, TV show, and trading card game. Essentially, it takes place in this world where there are these animals called Pokemon. In the first version, there were 150 different kinds. In this world, some people are "Pokemon trainers"; they go around catching wild Pokemon and training them to fight other Pokemon. It's (mostly) all in good fun; the Pokemon don't die or get seriously hurt or anything (when they lose all their HP, they've "fainted" and need to be taken to a Pokemon center - basically a little animal hospital - to be revived). So, those are the basic mechanics within the Pokemon universe: 1. Catch Pokemon, 2. Train them to make them stronger, 3. Battle other pokemon.
