Gaming 23+ Pokemon Games... Will it ever end?

[Guild McCommunist]

as Latinum from star trek is the most valuable substance in the universe.

To go all Star Trek nerd here, there's a fair amount of planets that don't use currency. Earth simply doesn't have money because it died down when they essentially became globally united. I'm rather sure most Federation planets don't. Why would you ever need money when you can recreate anything (there's those food dispenser things that I'm completely blanking on, but they of course make clothing and basically anything).

The only people who use Latinum I'm pretty sure are the Ferengi.

But I digress. Pokemon games are just named off of colors, metals, or gems. No real pattern.

And I don't see anything wrong with all these Pokemon games. They still hold up as beefy portable titles. There's a reason why they were THE killer app back in the day and are still usually what makes Nintendo handhelds.
