North America is going to be on the receiving end of more Pokemon goodness next month (September 19th, to be exact) as the arrival of the Pokemon Trading Figure Game hits. As if video games, cartoons and collectible card games weren't enough, this new money-making venture game for fans will offer starter packs for $14.99 [about £7.40] and 3-figure booster packs for $9.99 [£5].

While fans of the franchise will undoubtedly hop on board this ship as it sets sail, we must say the Pikachu figure pictured looks kind of stylish. We'd actually like to just flat out buy some of our favorite Pokemon, to tell the truth. They could sit next to our complete set of Resident Evil figures.

Trading figurines?

That is exactly what Monster in my Pocket was 17 years ago, now I am more convinced that Pocket Monsters is a cutesy rip-off of Monsters in my Pocket.
