    Pokemon came first. Its hard to tell for some, depending on what you mean (the anime being first, the franchise being first, etc) and who you ask.

    Pokemon, the franchise, came first overall, with Pokemon Red and Green being released in Japan on February, 27 1996 (the Blue version did not come out until October 15). The Digimon Virtual Pet did not come out until June 1997, more than a full year later. The Digimon Virtual Pet is indeed based off of the Tamagotchi but it is because of this that proves Digimon came after Pokemon. The Tamagotchi did not come out in Japan until November 1996, eight months after Pokemon did and since Digimon is based off of the Tamagotchi, they came even later than that. By the time the Digimon Virtual Pets came out in Japan, the people in United States had Tamagotchis of their own!

    In the United States, however, the Digimon Virtual Pet came here in early 1998, a few months before the release of Pokemon Red and Blue on September 1 1998. So, the Digimon franchise came to America first, which is why some Americans believe that Digimon came first. However, which anime came first is a different story.

    The Pokemon anime came first, with the first episode premiering in Japan on March 27, 1997 and the series actually starting on April 1, 1997. In the United States, it premiered on September 8, 1998. The Digimon anime did not come around until March 6, 1999 with the premiere of the movie Digimon Adventure. The anime started the next day, sharing the name of the movie. The anime did not come to the United States until August 14, 1999. However, because most people didn't even know about the release (or existence) of the first Digimon Virtual Pets in the United States, most people assumed that Digimon was just a "rip-off" or a "copy" of Pokemon (mostly because of the "-mon" at the end, despite the fact that the two shows barely have any similarities between them beyond this) and did not watch it at first.

    If you live in another country, its hard to tell which came first. For example, Pokemon Red and Blue did not come out in Europe until October 1, 1999. By this time, the Digimon anime had been out for almost 7 months!

    Pokemon was aired in the UK before Digimon. So that probably means Pkmn was made first then Digimon followed it over here.

    They always change the name of the characters in animes when they come from Japan to the states. I'm not sure why but they always do. They did the same with sailormoon. In Japan the main characters name is Usagi but here in the states its Serina

    They change the names of the characters to "Americanize" the show. Changing the names makes it easier for kids to remember the names of the characters and to keep up with the plot. The names they come up for the characters are not completely made up. For example, in Sailor Moon, "Usagi" is changed to "Serena" in the United States. Her new name comes from "Serenity", the name she had in her past life. "Mamoru" is changed to "Darien". Both names mean "protector". They did make the names of the characters up but whether or not they are good names is up to the audience.

    In recent years, most anime companies have actually cut back on doing this, as most kids are attracted to Japanese shows, even with the strange, foreign names.

    DIGIMON!! Its better, it has heart, its not as repetive as Pokemon (Im talking about the original, not the dubbed Digimon) And yes. Digimon was first, I swear it!! It was a tamogotchi first, then it expanded into manga, anime and other stuff. Pokemon came out a year later. POKEMON is the copy. Digimon rocks!!

    Pokemon is the first, and the monsters are cuter than digimon.
    Digimon also use '-mon' on every monster, and it makes digimon cooler than pokemon...i guess.

    Other than your extremely skewed opinion of why Digimon came first, you are wrong in all of your other points; some I have already explained .

    Digimon did not start out as a Tamagotchi. It was called the Digimon Virtual Pet and it was based off of the Tamagotchi. However, since Tamagotchis came out AFTER the Pokemon games, the Digimon Virtual Pets came out much later. Since the Digimon Virtual Pets did not come out until June 1997, Digimon was the one that came out a year later, as the first Pokemon games came out in February 1996.

    There was a Digimon manga. The very first volume was planned for release in 1997 (around the same time as the Pokemon manga) but it never got off the ground. It was not released until November of 1998, well after the Pokemon manga (by this time, Americans were playing Pokemon video games for the first time!).

    The Pokemon anime came out almost TWO YEARS before the Digimon anime came out (and the first time it came out, it was a movie, not an anime).

    So, even if Digimon "rocks", it does not change the fact that it simply came after Pokemon. I doesn't matter whether or not you like Pokemon. And like I said before, these two anime do not copy each other. They barely have anything in common besides the monsters and that both of them end in -mon !

    Digimon did not start out as a Tamagotchi. It was called the Digimon Virtual Pet and it was based off of the Tamagotchi. However, since Tamagotchis came out AFTER the Pokemon games, the Digimon Virtual Pets came out much later. Since the Digimon Virtual Pets did not come out until June 1997, Digimon was the one that came out a year later, as the first Pokemon games came out in February 1996.

    There was a Digimon manga. The very first volume was planned for release in 1997 (around the same time as the Pokemon manga) but it never got off the ground. It was not released until November of 1998, well after the Pokemon manga (by this time, Americans were playing Pokemon video games for the first time!).

    The Pokemon anime came out almost TWO YEARS before the Digimon anime came out (and the first time it came out, it was a movie, not an anime).

    So, even if Digimon "rocks", it does not change the fact that it simply came after Pokemon. I doesn't matter whether or not you like Pokemon. And like I said before, these two anime do not copy each other. They barely have anything in common besides the monsters and that both of them end in -mon !
    Hoho~ it really seems like you're so....upset? ^^
