| The Digimon Virtual Pet was a toy released in 1997 by Bandai. What became a TV series, toyline, comics, trading card game, and video games, began as a Tamagotchi for boys (as Bandai was also the creator of the Tamagotchi, which was more appropriate for girls). It was similar to earlier virtual pets ("v-pets"), with the distinctions of being much harder and being able to connect to fight other Digimon v-pets. Every owner would start off with a baby Digimon, train it, take care of it, make it evolve (or digivolve in the dubbed versions of Digimon media), and then have battles with other Digimon owners to see whose was stronger. The Digimon pet had several evolution capabilities, so two owners could have wildly different Digimon. Some have criticized the Digimon for being a "rip-off" of Pokémon, but the Digimon virtual pet was likely not influenced by Pokémon initially. True Loveskin lightening cream |
